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

Reading the Table

Tile	Name	Playable	Hostile	Food Source	Adult Body Size	Pet Value (×)	Biome	Features

The above columns indicate, in order:

Symbol: The symbol assigned to the creature, how you will see it without a graphic set.

Name: The name of the creature as it shows up ingame.

Hostile: If "Yes" then the creature will attack on sight, if "No" then the creature is either neutral or friendly. Undead creatures are always hostile.

Food Source: If "Yes" then the creature can be butchered into edible substance that your dwarves will feed on.

Adult Body Size: The average size of the creature when an adult. This can be anywhere from 500 for a rabbit to 25,000,000 for a dragon. More or less equals the creature's weight in grams. These sizes do not correspond to the sizes which trigger pressure plates. Size is modified with height and broadness (ie. incredible skinny and short is below the average weight, while a fat and tall one is above it).

Pet Value: This is the value the creature can be bought and sold for as a pet during trading.

Biome: Where the creature can be found.

Features: Any special features the creature possesses, these can include things such as causing a syndrome, breathing fire, or spinning webs.
