Merpeople have the most detailed {{L|raw file|raws}} of any fanciful creature in Dwarf Fortress. This is pointless, however, as they have the [FANCIFUL] tag and will not appear in the game as anything but {{L|statue}}s and {{L|engraver|engravings}}.

The removal of this {{L|creature tokens|tag}} will result in the appearance of merpeople in {{L|biome|good}}-aligned {{L|ocean}}s, but the only practical reason to do this is flavor. Unlike previous versions of the game, merpeople bones are worth the same as those derived from domestic animals. This makes merperson genocide an economically unattractive proposition.

Unlike previous versions, merperson bones are not more worth then normal bones.
