This article is about an older version of DF.

A Desert is typically a piece of land full of mostly sand. Deserts are a more challenging place to build a fort, as they lack a supply of wood. However, if a magma stream can be found, you can make a working fortress out of nothing but glass. An aquifer present makes for an easy water source, but breaking through it to find stone is difficult.

Foliage specifics[edit]

Saguaros have been reported and are one of the only trees ever to be found in a desert.

Wildlife[edit]

Herds of one-humped and two-humped camels often wander through deserts. Giant desert scorpions have been reported to be in the more savage areas.
