The Common Bar Shark
These players are just about average, and have found a permanent place at the bar. They vary wildly.

The Shottyshark
Ever-increasingly common nowadays, these violent and oftentimes insatiable creatures will wield shotguns, and work in teams to take down a single prey that has walked into their bar. They are unusually difficult to beat, but as they clump together to increase effectivness of their shotguns, a single piece of dynamite can sort them out well.
Their overall intelligence increases the more members of the BarClan there is, so do not allow their numbers to get to 4 or over, as otherwise they will be an annoyance to kill.

The Long-Nosed Bar Shark
This type of player sits at the bar, its quivering weapon at the ready.
These players have incredibly good aim at close quarters, and will quickly kill any unsuspecting victim who walks into the bar for a refreshing, cold jar of whiskey.
They live social lives in Team Shootout, with other types of Bar Sharks and such, often sharing a kill with one another.
But in ordinary Shootout, they are more vicious and solitary, trying to kill and rip apart any creature unfortunate enough to bring their fight into the bar.

The Fanning Bar Shark
The more docile Bar Sharks, they prefer close range, and will oftentimes allow players to drink whiskey and run off, if they are fast enough.
This player has 3 types:

The Colt Navy Fanning Bar Shark. The most docile of the bunch, only vicious if you approach it.

The Peacemaker Fanning Bar Shark. An anscestor of the chestcamper, is so vicious that it is oftentimes spotted leaving its bar to chase enemies.

And finally, the Schofield Fanning Bar Shark. This illusive sub-species varies hugely between individual players, ranging from very docile to more violent than the Gentlemare. They have been spotted to shoot whiskey bottles in their spare time, a pasttime only seen by a few advanced species, like the Bartaker.

The Ambush Bar Shark
Scenario: You've walked into a bar at the start of the match. Quite a few twits have given you an owie, so you go to drink a bottle-o-whiskeh. But, it gets shot out from underneath you, and a long-nosed ambush barshark slams you in the head and you are dead.

Well done, you've met an ambush barshark! These creatures bide their time and are not really too aggressive.

Other Species:

The House Centipede
This particular species hides in houses, on most maps, usually never leaving the houses in a lifetime. Their behaviour depends on the house, and sometimes you see them move from house-to-house, but they avoid combat outside. They are very tough on their home grounds, but they are easy to beat if you team on them. Sometimes, however, they form their own teams and are a force to be reckoned with, often sniping from inside the house, transforming it into a huge bunker.

The Hatchet Crab
This player hides in the corner of the bar, only to pop up and mercilessly hack and slash at their victims.

The Chestcamper Bar Shark
These players have migrated from their chests and have decided to make a home in a bar. Their aggression varies on their weapon.

The Bartaker
Incredibly intelligent, these creatures raid and take bars for their own purposes, but often co-existing with other players, like Bar Sharks. They will also repel attackers with varying degrees of success. Not much is known, due to the fact they are so rare.


The Chestcamper
These creatures stay near chests and collect the weapons in them. But, instead of leaving the chests, they use them as a trap, luring in players from all over the map.


The Cliffbow
Okay, these creatures are incredibly violent, and have found out a way to cause huge damage using bow-like weapons. They will access nearly-unreachable spots and snipe people.
They are social creatures, but only with their own kind. Any other creature that approaches them will be driven away by any means possible.


The Train-Stopping Tunnelman
This is a strain of a virus living in 10% of all players in FoF.
This virus simply causes a huge, sudden urge to stop the train in fof_cripplecreek in the tunnels and defend it.
No-one knows the cause, but it happens. It also spreads through the train-stopping proccess. Even when repelled from the train, these creatures are driven towards stopping it in the tunnels.

And once stopped, other people keep it from going, and in the future, will stop the train and camp it in the tunnels, and further spread this virus.

These are not even all of these illusive creatures. There are other species that I have not seen, heard or encountered before.

Put your found species in the comments, if you want.

The Camper-Stamper
A very crazy man who runs around with dynamite, foiling camper's plans and generally dealing with anyone who stands in one place too long.

The Great Sharp Sniper
This is a child of a Chestcamper that wanted to see more of life.
This horrible creature roams the map, killing all who gets in its way.
It is incredibly violent and is known to magically avoid shots from most conventional weapons.


The Chestnomad
This is the mobile version of the Chestcamper.
Even more violent than the ordinary Chestcamper, it travels from chest to chest, picking up weapons and killing all that lie in its way.
Their breeding cycles are even more terrifying than the species, and little is known.
They will walk about in a pack, but scramble viciously for weapons chests.
In TS they often hang around on the same team, but in Shootout, they only hang about each other becuase they can't bother with fighting each other without cause. When they get to chests, brutal battles will occour, often lasting for whole matches.


The Visitor (LEGENDARY?)
Not much is know about this creature, only that they join servers, and kill everybody. No exeptions. Nobody can escape. They make people abandon servers, they are that good. They say very little and then suddenly leave, without a word. Very illusive, they will only respond to someone who bests them in battle. Sadly, this is impossible. They have been known to team up.

The Bow-wolf
Imagine the cliffbow, but with heightned aggression and a tendency to move across the map. They hang about in packs on TS, stripping places dry of whiskey and life.
In Shootout, competition is so fierce that they commit suicide to deny each other kills.

Shielders
These things will attempt to barricade themselves winto buildings using clever placement of chairs, tables, wardrobes and other things. They also use objects to protect themselves from enemy fire, but are overall average players.

The Ghost Rider

These strange creatures are rarely seen - before it is too late, that is!

They sneak around unnoticed, ambush-killing usually lone players when they least suspect it. The most experienced of Ghost Riders can, however, take down several preys during a single ambush. Even if the prey senses something following them, the Ghost Rider has hidden a microsecond before they turn around tho check their back.
After they finish the kill, they vanish back to sneaking, stalking for another prey. The "Ghost" part of the name obviously comes from the creature's phantomlike ability to move around without being seen (especially by its prey). The "Rider" comes from the fact that they seem to have the cabability to traverse even long distances in a relatively short time, as if they were on horseback - it is not known how they do this, thought it is speculated that they've discovered pathways unknown to most mortal men. -Tompsonitti

Average Australian player

Wields a Navy because he heard that it's a pro gun when he first started playing. Experienced in casual TF2 but doesn't own a mic or a Shift key. Signature attack is a jump kick but he still manages to miss it 90% of the time. These players will probably beat you if you can't escape their jump kick but even if you do you will have to watch out for decent aim. -Nassic

Average NA player

Owns a special edition of the game where the Shootout buy menu only shows the Remington, Knives, and Right-Handed. Doesn't understand what Right-Handed does but uses it anyway because they are right-handed IRL. Absolutely terrible at the game and will stand completely still after landing one lucky headshot and then proceed to whiff the next 5 shots before panicking and trying to turn around to reload instead of drawing a secondary. Shift key is taped down and both the Alt key and spacebar are missing. Thinks you have to push E each time you drink whiskey. -Nassic

The Hatchetwolf, Hatchetpanther and their variants
The Hatchetwolf used to be a common, overpopulating creature roaming across all maps, in packs of up to 8, even 10 on a good day!
But, although their territory is still intact, they almost got hunted to extintiction by most other species, due to the "Hatchet Restement" that happened in early 2015.

Since then, the more solitary and skilled hatchetpanthers have been hitting the maps, outskilling any remaining hatchetwolves.

But, packs of hatchetwolves have and still are popping up at random intervals, although not being entirely successful.
I'm going a bit overboard with this, so I'll stop now.


The Disarmer/The Peacestealer
This player uses the brass fists to steal weapons off people, then kills them, either with their weapon or in a fistfight. These are incredibly rare, so there isn't much info on them.


The Cutthroat
This fearsome creature uses sharp bits of metal to kill prey, quickly and mercilessly.
Due to how quickly they get killed in larger confontations, they move around the map to keep players guessing.

They are very solitary, and don't usually move around in groups.

Coachroach and Smithbug.
A symbiotic pair of insects, the coachroach and smithgun work together to take down prey. The coachroach weaken prey with long range pellet spray, while the smithbug finishs them off. (accually a really good tatic in teamplay). There also exsists lone coachroaches, but these tend to be the much dumber subveriety called the Cruchroach. - Lord Vegas

Allahuackbar
These things roam about, usually mistaken as a friendly or very bad/newby player, but, they have a strange, and dangerous side. If they see groups of 3 or more enemy players, they will bring out some dynamite, light it, and walk into them.
You know what happens next.

The Travelling Giants
This is technically a superorganism. It consists of 3 individuals, the Healer, the Sniper and the Shorty. They all work together in a strange, telepathic relationship. The healer equips a jug of whisker, the sniper equips any long-ranged weapon, and the shorty equips any short range weapon. They roam the map, an unstoppable team with an impossible to break bond. Even after death, it remains and reforms.
It is not known what happens if 2 or more of these Gants join up, but the opposite team do not want to damn know.

The thieves

A subspecies of the Peacestealer, they not only steal the weaponry of other creatures, but also money as well. These creatures can be found by their bandana that grows on their face. Keep away from them and fight them head-on.

-Z

These are incredibly diverse, with more and more to discover.
Join any server and see what types of players exist and such, it's actually kinda fun!

Normal Player
This is just your average Joe.
He plays well, and he's honourable, but isn't really noticed.
A good player generally gets 5th+ in most matches.


Kill Stealer
Disliked by many, this player climbs his way up the leaderboard by killing the weakened or the occupied. Not to be confused with the ambush hunter.


Ambush Hunter
Rather than risk open combat, this player catches other players unawares and is often a force to be reckoned with.

The shotgun-slinger
Not exactly popular, and the reason for the decline in the Hatchet's popularity, these players can take down even the best players in 2 quick shots.

Headhunters.
An extremely dangerous creature, known only in teamplay for the most part. They mainly use high powered weapons that will decimate any gray matter, and their consistancy is on par with the creepyness of their skull necklace. - Lord Vegas

The Asian player
Born and raised in a variety of Asian countries, they show no mercy as they slaughter entire servers while saying nothing. They often use as many high-powered firearms as possible.
-Z


Dual Wielders
Often seen holding two handguns most of the time. A breed crossed with many different types of species, will often steal the handguns of fallen enemies or teammates, with the latter being symbolic. They are dangerous predators, and with pack leaders wielding two Walkers, they are the the apex predators of FoF. Pack leaders are very rare though, and are speculated to be legendary. -KFC's Gravy

The Medic
Since the introduction of portable Whiskey jugs, Medics often hang around others and feed them with Whiskey. During fights, a constant stream of alcohol will mark the bond of everlasting teamwork. -KFC's Gravy

Gun-Kata Blackbelt
An unusual creature that mixes in an unheard of blend of eastern martial arts with western gunplay. Known for acts such as flying kicks, throwing empty guns, judo throwing off of cliffs, and random Raging Demons into trains.

Cargo Runners
These cowboys usually run on fof_cripplecreek breakbad, running, looting supplies throughout the town via the train. When confronted with another enemy train passenger, they can be very friendly. However, they will be suspicious of a traitor, waiting to stab their behind with a knife.
These runners are seen carrying axes for bloodlust speed, and a revolver for self-defense. - Toby M88

El Zorro
Only two of them can exist at the same time. No more, no less. Whoever dons the signature mask of Zorro is an individual who fights unsavory individuals, and infuriates them after defeating them and leaving a signature "Z".
-Z

The GentleMare Bar Shark
This was the incredibly violent and most dangerous Bar Shark out there, it most certainly wasn't the most clever.
Instead of resorting to ambush, like the Long-Nosed type, it went to shock tactics and would leap in front of victims, with it's weapon readied, upon which it would have either waited for you to shoot it, or shoot you instantly, heavily damaging you, and oftentimes killing you.
Luckily, these players were easy to sneak upon and kill, so you could drink the life-sustaining liquid that is whiskey, in peace.
As they were more violent, they would attempt to purge the bar of all life, but not very efficently, as it's viciousness hindered it and dumbed the creature, as it threw itself upon enemies and take them out that way, oftimes spelling death for the poor, vicious creature.

Gentleman
Used the Gentleman Perk a huge amount of the time, but was otherwise a normal player, with some minute differences.


The Hermit
With the addition of the insatiable perk, a new creature has been seen picking up weapons and sometimes sharing with teammates. Hermits are capable of not only storing items, but also drink huge amounts of Whiskey without getting too drunk, too. Hermits are currently in their first stage of evolving, and only a handful of them have been documented. -KFC's Gravy
Rest in Peace.


The Derringer Bar Shark.
A lot more violent than they seem to be capable of, they will defend their bar with vigour. As a dying breed, try not to discourage them from their playstyles to preserve them.

DingDing Snipe
A rare bird that has nearly been shot to extinction due to its own stupidity. They carry extremly tiny guns that can't hit the broad side of the barn, but still only shoot them from afar atop their nest. - Lord Vegas

Chameleon Barsharks
Unlike the other breed of its species the chameleon barshark sits ontop of the chandelier with a colt navy, waiting for an unlucky player to enter the bar, relieved to see no barshark only to be swiftly ended by the chameleon. they are seen to be highly hostile to other barsharks not close to them. they speak telepathically with their shoal and can be seen to rarely even touch the whiskey.

The Gundead

They are the kind of unholy creatures that survive on minimal health, just to suck all the life and whiskey out of everything to continue their gluttonist existence. They are extremly fast, and if you don't kill them in exactly ONE SHOT, they will consume your life force or disappear to drain all the whiskey out of the enviorment. If you can't finish them off, and are brave enough, proceed to not chase them directly, but head to a whiskey concentrated area, where you might catch them before they are reborn angry at the living and craving your brains. If someone achieves a most drunk of 300 or more, they are Gundead. Next time you encounter one, use a smith or mare's leg, and aim straight at their head.

There are many, many types of players within this game, and it is a joy to see people having fun.

I hope this inspires you to play this game more, and push yourself to do what you want to do.
