Version 0.32: This article is up to date for the latest stable release of Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
In Dungeon Crawl, species selection determines a character's stats, recommended backgrounds, skill aptitudes, special abilities and equipment options. The game offers 27 different playable species; most are essentially humanoid, although some are human-animal hybrids and a few are even stranger.
Contents

- Tengu (Te): A somewhat fragile yet evasive bird-like species with a beak, talons, and a propensity for violence, both physical and magical. They eventually learn to fly.
- Troll (Tr): Even larger and stronger than the oni, with huge claws, regenerative powers, and abysmal aptitude for most skills that aren't clawing their foes to death or throwing things.
- Vampire (Vp): A sneaky form of undead which can use blood to switch between their frail-but-resistant natural state and a swift-healing living form. Exceptional at disabling foes, then stabbing them in the back.
