I was considering sacrificing my latest mayor for this reason.

Then I found a Legendary Cheese Maker who likes helping people, has a strong sense of duty, and doesn't like anything that's impossible to make.

Obsidian or gravity are probably your only two options left. >.>

Gravity? Against a candy FB?

*Sigh*

Despite it being huge in size, it still weighs as much as a plump helmet.

It has a density of .2g/cm^3.

With a size of 10,000,000, it'd weight 2,000,000 grams, or two metric tons.

Two metric tons still goes splat when it's falling at terminal velocity. ^^

Hrm... well, weapons will be nearly useless. Same with magma, and possibly freezing traps.

Slade is also nice in stonefall traps

I feel sorry for the invaders...

That's... worse than getting mangled by a horde of angry elephants.

Hey, let's not go crazy here. If you saw a horde of these coming for you...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Winged elephants!? Oh noes!

If you saw a boulder that weighs as much as a small town dropping on you from a height...

... Then I'd still probably fear the elephants more. The boulder can only kill me. The elephants can do far worse. 

Derpy Hooves is science.

Also awesome.

I have never spent more than 5 minutes on TvTropes, finding most of it to be relatively boring, even to my knowledge seeking mind.

.......

please dont dissect me in an attempt to find an antidote...

This would be a perfect time to post a picture of Derpy Hooves as a scientist...

Eh, I've done that recently. Anyone else want to give it a go?

We finally have a test subject! (For my fortress, that is).

She just arrived here at Minegrip today at the age of two years old, which is absolutely perfect. I'm going to be supplying her with 240 Urists of booze and 120 Urists of food to keep her fed and drunk for up to fifteen years, and most of the booze will be Dwarven Beer (her favourite).

What's great is that she's starting out with green physical attributes and no red ones, plus her mental attributes are complete carp. I predict that after she is released she will lack the ability to speak, and will destroy anything that isn't a dwarf. Most of what she likes is related to weaponry, as it's all flux, metal, bone, and spears, though she also likes alpacas for being small llama-like creatures. Unfortunately, she absolutely detests lizards and not elves, but I figure I can change that with conditioning.

She is quick to anger (good), often feels discouraged (military training'll fix that ^^), appreciates art and natural beauty (useless), rarely completes tasks due to distractions (no distractions in a turkey filled hell hole, so she'll be fine ), slouches when she's bored (meh), and cracks her knuckles when she's nervous (could be intimidating, so good).

I don't quite have all of the statues ready, and I've yet to set up a hospital, so I'm going to have to work on getting that done before sealing the room. Alternatively, I could just make a bunch of rock statues for the first subject.

I'll provide yearly updates for this project, or whenever I feel like doing so.

EDIT: I pastured three turkey hens in the chamber to help ensure their survival. Also, I decided to mostly use the statues of turkeys that my weaponsmith made. Fitting, no? ^^
