This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.


Nightmares Ñ are procedurally-generated night creatures summoned by necromancers and demons[Verify] to fight in battle. They are larger than your standard humanoids, but smaller than titans and forgotten beasts. They are short-lived, and neutral to creatures with [NO_FEAR].

All nightmares are linked with the spheres of misery, night, and nightmares.

Some dwarves like nightmares for their unfathomably horrifying nature.

Too much for the neurons to handle.
