It's a kind of night creature. They're far more commonly encountered in Adventure Mode, since the only way to get these lair-dwellers is to embark right on top of their hole in the ground. They're about as savoury as you'd expect from the names.

I am trying to make chickens lay bees as eggs. So far it only produces a single "Tame Small Creature" when a hen lays bees.
Honestly at the time, I didn't see what could go wrong with crowding 80 military Dwarves into a small room with a necromancer for the purpose of making bacon.

Because the name "dark woman" is randomly generated.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

It's a 'Night Troll', a somewhat randomly generated humanoid monster that murders people and sometimes abducts members of the opposite sex and turns them into night trolls as well. You know, to get down and jiggy with them. I found a whole family of night trolls yesterday in Adventure Mode, and the ensuing battle was a long one since they're quite tough.

Actually Night Trolls are easier to kill than any Giant creature or armoured/armed warrior in my opinion.

They're still tougher than bogeymen. Also, there was a whole pack of five of them.
