I haven't tried this yet, but wouldn't it also work if you have your weapons zero damage? but otherwise, it would be a good idea to make them all bludgeon damage and a very low damage with a crit rate of nought.

SERIOUSLY ITS NOT POSSIBLE TO READ THIS WITHOUT IMAGINING EVERYONE YELLING

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY. SOMEHOW, I HEARD ALL THE VOICES YELLING INSIDE MY HEAD.

Of course, his general attitude and the intellectualism of most players means he is often treated quite well, better than many other nobles in fact.

It's rare for them to be killed intentionally. I've never heard of it happening, in fact.

Obviously. Who do you like more some random guy that walks into your fortress declaring that he is King -without any proof (except for maybe a sword, but then again, if I went 'round sayin' I was an emperor because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away...)- and demanding extraordinarily expensive rooms andthings you cannot produce, such as crystal glass statues. Or a nice peaceful person, who will settle just fine in barracks, eat whatever's available and leaves you alone? And in real life, who would you give the better room? The annoying kid or the calm, peaceful kid?

A dwarf engraved a stone floor with a picture of himself engraving a stone floor.

Urist McEngraver:"I find myself such a good engraver, I admired the way I'm engraving this tile. What if I stopped my original plan, and started engraving myself engraving myself engraving myself engraving... You get the picture, I guess."

I've had an artefact with something alike on my current fortress:
This is a Birchen chair. All craftsdwarship is of the highest quality. This object menaces with spikes of Oak and turtle bone. On the item is an image of two Ashs in Ash. On the item is an image of a Birchen chair in Sunstone.

Note that this is my first wooden chair in my fortress.

I believe it's fixed by adding the [CAN_STONE]-tag to the bolt entry.

Suggestion - remove the ability of this creature to roam about in the wild, but add a reaction to the smelter so you can "smelt" him when needed.

That could also work. I thought that cheat-smelting animals doesn't work or at least is bugged or limited. I've tried to make the reaction, but firstly, the only item token that would make an animal, is PET. I suspect it would make a pet, rendering the whole point useless, since dwarves won't attack tame animals. And the second problem is what matgloss token to use.

Adding an entirely new entry does require a new world. Adding tags to an existing entry does not require a new world. You will need to restart DF for the changes to have effect. This is handy for cheat-smelting things you need. Make a couple of blank smelting entries and when you need something, just fill in appropriately.

Make it with a high speed and a high damblock tag. Make it small with the size tag to minimize the damage and don't put any attack tags in it. Put it in all biomes and have it occur frequently and in large groups. No sleep, pain, hunger, bleeding, nausea, breathing, stunning or thirst are always handy.

EDIT: Actually a good idea. I'll give it a try.

EDIT2: Here you go. I made the trainable so they can be used as a distraction when enormous enemies attack. That's also why I added some other tags to make the sturdier in case of GCS, dragons, HFS... Add this to any random creature file. You don't even have to make a new BODY-entry. I've only tested in Adventure mode, and it survived a cougar attack. I tried to retaliate and I could neither attack nor wrestle the thing. If there are any complications in Fortress mode, just let me know and I'll try to figure out what went wrong.
