I've done DF modding in the past but it was sloppy and I didn't learn much. However this time, I've gotten a better grasp on how modding creatures work and I now fell ready to actually release a project.
This mod adds a bunch of miscellaneous creatures to the game, some may be real or imaginary. (mostly imaginary)
