I think that at one point there was a glitch where they had molten glass, but I'm not sure. If so it would be a doubly funny joke.

MOAR EDIT: New bug: instead of bleeding hemolymph like I'd intended, it seems Water Striders bleed molten glass. I...I'm not sure how I did that.

Water striders, apparently. I'm not sure if that is more or less horrific though.

Wow. I'd forgotten about that bug, but I'm pretty sure we've seen both. I'd implement both the blood walls and the dirigible antelope skin ashes bugs somehow, but that seems like it would ruin the joke.

How many cave-only creatures do we have at the moment?

Two or three sapient species, the red goo blob thingies, some other stuff. I'd say it's relatively little.

Now that's an interesting idea:  A DF world where all the mobile life is also sentient, but only the elves have "do not eat sentient beings" as their ethics.  Get a whole prey/predator/scavenger cycle going...

We've got the Horsemen (made of lava I think), reaver ants, gnomes (with primitive muskets), and some other stuff. Could use more, if you want.

In this mod, though, the elves are even creepier cannibals. They're not born, but rather pieced together from carrion that has rotted in the forest.

Oh if there's little underground life, I'll be focusing on those creatures. Does anyone like the idea of cave lynxes and albino owls?

That seems kind of plain, but go for it if you want. I personally think cave owls would be more interesting, though.

We don't have regular lynxes or regular owls, last I checked. These cavern variants would be the main branch of the species. It's a funny enough idea that I say go for it :D

Generally, when one is conducting an experiment, it is worth noting that the observers went insane, killed each other, and then rose from the dead.
It's like DF inhaled a peanut.

I already have the equivalent of seals and leopard seals in bird form. Think large, ferocious penguin-like birds. So Pinniped-like bodyplan, but birds. I suppose you could come up with a walrus equivalent. Tusked Skurl, maybe.

Or maybe you could do something else with the walrus. I put birds in the sea, maybe you can put walruses on land.
