the Dwarves worship deities, so basically we're going to ignore any evidence of the simulator's existence and assume Armok created everything in 1025 years
This is not really the place for that, but Real dieties and some sort of evolution are not mutually exclusive. It would be best for DF for the game not to be a static permanent universe, created by the Gods. In fact, the gods should just be part of the simulation, by interfering in planetary matters, but certainly not by being omnipotent(think Discworld Gods)
There's also the evidence of current cave bears, ogres, toads, etc.

Most of that sounds good, but I see bibliophile burnings if dwarves skip work to read. It should but a leisure activity.

Remember though, why would your labourers be able to read?

...Let me think about that. How were literacy rates in the 1300s or 1400s?

DF Suggestions / Re: Arena/Zoo zone

I guess the best solution would be to have dwarves ignore creatures who can't hurt them, and also ignore creatures in arenas until the latter make it to almost the exit of the arena or close enough to hurt.

I can see a little dwarfling snug in his giant bone bed, father looking proudly in the doorway.

Right before that Fell Mood hits and Dad decides he really wants a new dwarf-bone helm

how sadistic is this forum...

Not nearly as sadistic as a fell mood.

Severed hands need a nerf. Without the forearm (and the muscle and tendon to bone connections that entails) a hand wouldn't be able to exert enough grip to be dangerous
Without muscles or tendons a skeleton shouldn't be able to move. Just accept the consistency of the crazy.
I think hands should be able to crawl, grasp, and maybe scratch, but I have no idea how that would be done. Maybe limiting actions if the zed lacks a part with LIMB?

I wouldn't want them to be weird, anomalous structures when every other tree took up one tile.

Nothing, not even marry.

What would Urist do if he had a rock, and someone broke it?

Because all of us are helping to dismantle the airplane!
