Is there something wrong in the structure of this creature?

Is it in a file with [OBJECT:CREATURE] at the top?

I see them on the Adventure Mode menu. Maybe you just haven't come across one yet?

The only reason you can get them from the adventure mode menu is because they have outsider_controllable

I gave them [COMMON_DOMESTIC] and [PET] and then I could see them on the embark menu. I really think the answer might be that you just haven't come across any yet. To spawn, they'd have to rolled instead of any other creature in their environment.

Never mind, i finally found a wild Moldling, it's odd seeing them called "peasant(tame)", or simply dwarf, but it seems to be working so far.
