'''Pebbles''' are a naturally occurring [[map tile]] found commonly across the surface of the world near [[river]]s and [[brook]]s, and occasionally as [[beach]]es. Usually they are found labelled as ''rock-type'' pebbles, for example ''Basalt'' Pebbles. They can be found near [[boulder]]s if you look hard enough.

Shale pebble tiles surrounded by grass.

Pebbles are a naturally-occurring map tile found commonly across the surface of the world near rivers and brooks, and occasionally on beaches. They are the same stone type as the substrate; for example, if the first stone layer beneath soil is basalt, then pebbles will be composed of basalt. Pebbles may be found near boulders of the same substrate.

Unlike boulders, pebbles cannot be designated for smoothing. (This may be a bug)

In adventurer mode, a pebble tile is an unlimited source of small rocks, which can be useful for throwing and knapping.
