Fragment of a concept-scheme of relationships between animals

“	The animals are divided into: a — those belonging to the Emperor, b — embalmed ones, c — trained ones, d — suckling pigs, e — sirens, f — fabled ones, g — stray dogs, h — those included in this classification, i — those that tremble as if they were mad, j — innumerable ones, k — those drawn with a very fine camel hair brush, l — et cetera, m — those that have just broken the vase, n — those that from afar look like flies.	„
	~ Celestial Emporium of Benevolent Knowledge

Animals are NPCs that roam the Plains, Forests, and other Biomes. Sometimes, they fight with each other or wait until prey enters their field of vision.

Harmless Animals are mobs that will run away when they see or hear a player character. Most of them have valuable horns or pelts that can be harvested with Butchering from Survival skill tree.

Hostile Animals are mobs that will become suspicious when they hear or see a player and will hold their position and try to scare the player away by making specific sound and animation. If the player stays in their close proximity for too long or comes too close, these animals will also enter the Hostile state. Otherwise, if player leaves their close proximity quickly enough, the animals will go back to the Unaware state.

Enemies

Enemies are all creatures that will attack you on sight. There are many different kinds of enemies and each comes with their own set of priorities and Skills they can use. Enemies of a certain type cooperate together (for example, Wolves form packs), but they may not cooperate with enemies of a different type (for example, Wolves and Brigands will attack each other).

Being a trader ain't easy. You never know what tomorrow will bring. There's always a chance you'll get robbed at night — maybe even killed.

Blargh, the brigands have gotten completely out of hand, but neither the Magistrate nor the Council seems to care in the slightest.

Brigands — faction mostly made up of people: from ragamuffins and marauders at the first "shooting ranges" to deserters and former mercenaries at the later ones. The dungeon for them is the Bastion. Brigands are the only type of Enemies that can spawn on the surface, with the exception of Ghouls.

Secret Cults — faction that differs from the others in its duality.

“

I'm not afraid of bandits, you know. They may be villains, but at least they're still human. Can't say the same about the undead.

Dead folks should lie in their graves instead of walking around and waving weapons. These things are unnatural — I can't help but feel dread whenever I run into them.

„

The first subfaction of the Secret Cults is the Undead — all sorts of evil dead, resurrected by the cult of necromancers that settled in Aldor. The dungeon for them is the Crypt.

Do you believe in vampires? I don't. The undead are common enough, and I've seen some giant spiders too. I've even dealt with vermlings a few times. But vampires? They're just old wives' tales.

Well, there was this odd fellow spreading rumors about an entire brood of bloodsuckers in the ruins of the Mannshire Abbey.

What a joker, right? Even small kids know there's nothing dangerous about the place - except for restless spirits, that is.

The second subfaction of the Secret Cults are the Proselytes — mostly clergy who suffered from the Crimson Plague and were transformed into vampiric monsters. The dungeon for them is the Catacombs.
