Has anyone ever run into these? They don't have any body information, seems like they're missing quite a lot of necessary tokens.

Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk and free throw.

Were they scampering about in 2D, then? Why the removal?

It would be best not to worry about them, or you might end up like them.

They're all counted as fanciful. Therefore, it's possible to make an entity use them more or less in it's art by modifying some tag whose name I can't recall right now.

That's really all they're good for. I don't even think I've ever had an engraving of a griffon or anything.

No biomes, and most arent ready to be put back in yet, pending magic and the like.

they are fanciful, as in mythical in the df world(though mermaids were moved to an actual creature). means dwarves will like em, and engrave pictures of them, but dont actualy exist

Several people (including myself) have modded the centaurs to be playable though.
