Some of you may not know that I can code; but I can - and this is my second contribution to the Df community and Dfhack altogether.

This script Searches your save and indexes all creature raws of Angels and Experiments and generates a graphics file for them, giving them unique graphics in game.
The graphics art .pngs are derived from Mephs procedual creatures ultimately from Denzis Random Monsters.

Put the script into hack/scripts,
 the graphics files into your saves graphics folder,
  then and run the script in the dfhack terminal.

Also...
Back your stuff up!

They don't match the actual descriptions, do they?

You could improve it by searching the creature raws for wings before assigning a sprite, at minimum.

Yeah I realised too late the semantics don't match. it generates a graphic file for procedual creatures, not procedual graphics. Going to change it when I get home today

The first release is really just intended to prevent invasions of capital H:s

This is a great idea, I can't wait to see what's possible!
