It's really kind of annoying and I don't know what's happening, I don't know if I added anything weird because I basically copy/pasted Dwarves and added a few extra tokens.  I added this to the bottom of the entity_default.txt file:

Any help would be appreciated.

[Wiles]

It's the flier tag. They start flying and get scared  

[Aaaamory]

Seriously?  Wow, this race is cowardly.  I never would have figured that out on my own.  Guess I'll have to fix that.

[Kagus]

Yep.   They'll start flying, have a panic attack, and get stuck mid-air.  They'll starve to death that way, and then their corpses will fall to the ground below.

Unusual imagery.

[Aaaamory]

It's fixed.  Of course the wings bodypart also had [FLIER] on it so I had to remove that too and created a flightless pair.  Then I got an idea and gave them bludgeoning attacks.  Ever see how geese use their wings to fight?  They're nasty.

[Kagus]

Actually, you don't need to remove the wings.  The reason they have the [FLIER] tag is bcause if you destroy a wing, the creature will stop flying.  If they don't fly to begin with, they serve no purpose other than being extra body parts.

[Aaaamory]

I know, that's why I gave them a purpose.  I couldn't take them off entirely though.  One advantage to having extra useless limbs... the badguys might rip something off and the chances are greater they'll miss the ones you actually need.

An old dragon with only one wing patrolling the fortress.  That sounds really badass.
