The favoured drink of [[Armok]], '''blood''' (or '''ichor''', for those less-than-favored creatures) is found in most of the [[creatures]] in [[Dwarf_Fortress|Dwarf Fortress]], with the notable exception of [[Undead|skeletal creatures]]. Blood is not a fluid like [[water]] or [[magma]] - it is something that is only seen as a stain on creatures, items and the landscape after an injury.  If badly wounded, a creature may bleed, and creatures have a limited amount of blood. After enough bleeding, the creature will die.

It comes in several colors, red for most [[animal]]s and creatures, and aqua/teal for [[troll|trolls]]. This stuff usually ends up covering anybody and anything involved in melee combat, especially [[dog]]s, [[cat]]s and [[wrestler]]s who must physically be on their target to dispatch them. The blood covering on [[armor]] and [[weapon]]s will inflate creature inventory screens ''very'' quickly.  A dwarf with the [[cleaning]] [[labor]] enabled will clean terrain, but there is no (known) negative effect, so it's generally ignored.  You cannot currently clean blood from an item or creature, but it will (eventually) wear off.

Blood does not spread.  Due to serious problems with it, [[Main:Toady One|Toady One]] has disabled mud/blood spreading for the time being.
