[[File:tools_sprites_preview.png|right]]'''Tools''' are objects used for mundane purposes by civilians and [[night creature]]s. Some tools can also be used as [[weapon]]s, though it is usually much better to use, say, a [[sword]] over a carving fork. Other tools can be used by your dwarves in [[fortress mode]].

You can select these tools as starting equipment, if your adventurer hails from a human civilisation.
