Template:AV

In Dwarf Fortress, creatures are defined as any (for the sake of this article, non-Template:L) beings you can interact with. They come in all shapes and sizes, and range from the civilized races like Template:L to evil monsters like Template:L. Various creatures will interact with your fortress in many different ways.

See also: Animals

Note: When adding creatures make sure you:

 *Pay attention to how the other creature's information is displayed. 
 *Try to avoid including periods in any part of the table. 
 *Place a creature in multiple categories if they fit into them. (with the exception of hidden fun stuff)
 *Sort creatures alphabetically. 
 *Keep notes short, and make sure they're relevant.
 *Keep information in it's proper column.
