− | In ''Dwarf Fortress'', a '''creature''' is defined as any animate, normally-mobile being that can interact with the world. Although most creatures are animals, [[dwarf|dwarves]], [[giant cave spider]]s, and even [[megabeast]]s are all also considered creatures. Various creatures can and will interact with a fortress or adventurer in many different ways. When learning about what creatures there are and the purposes they serve, sometimes it helps to be able to sort them in different ways, such as by where they are found, what features they may have, and similar things. This page was created to allow people to sort creatures by different means to suit other purposes. | + | In ''Dwarf Fortress'', a '''creature''' is defined as any animate, normally-mobile being that can interact with the world.
