About

The Desmodus is a mammal creature introduced in the Fjordur DLC. It is a large bat capable of flight and is recognized in-game and in commands by the name tag Desmodus.

Admins can spawn it using the entity ID Desmodus_Character_BP_C with SpawnDino or related admin commands. Because it originates from Fjordur, verify that the relevant content is active on your server before attempting spawns on other maps.

When managing creature populations or setting up custom encounters, the entity ID is the most reliable identifier to use in server commands. The name tag can be used with DestroyWildDinoClasses or similar commands that accept tag-based targeting.

Is the Desmodus Creature a DLC creature or part of the base game?
