'''Tigerfish''' are aquatic [[creature]]s that live in tropical freshwater rivers and lakes. They appear in clusters of 3 to 7 individuals. They are slightly smaller than a [[dwarf]] and are the largest freshwater fish in the game (largest ''fish''; there are [[Hippo|larger freshwater creatures]]). While their name and description make them out as predatory and aggressive animals, tigerfish are completely benign meaning they are more likely to run away if a dwarf approaches it. In spite of their benignness they are fully capable of tearing and shaking an unarmed dwarf to pieces if provoked.
