And these birds will eventually all explode.
and each time a bird explodes it summons an exponentially increasing number of eggs
To avoid FPS death, these eggs will each hatch into random statues
The statues automatically arrange themselves into pyramids.

(btw I think this quote pyramid is big enough now lol, we don't want to crash the forum)
(Okay, I will shorten the pyramid)
The statue pyramid will cause anyone who walks near them to have thoughts other than their own, thoughts from other creatures of the world

Dwarven Sociopaths and Serial Killers should be added, with a preference for killing the most skilled Dwarves of the Fortress first, and will never target cheesemakers unless their second highest skill is higher than everyone else’s.

Dwarves who aren't sociopaths should be added.

Very friendly strange moods:

Dwarves get a bit too friendly and path toward every single creature on the map one by one. They get a good thought for everyone they encounter and hug, while the target gets either a good or bad thought based on their personality. Some wild animals will take this as an attack, and goblins love it when a dwarf just walks into their arrows, arms outspread with a doofy smile on their face.

And Megabrasts like it when their prey comes to them without armor or weapons

Dwarf hugs a Bronze Colossus so hard its neck snaps.

Add an official Colossus for every other metal.

Armok have mercy on your soul if your fort is visited by an Adamantine Colossus.

It's actually pretty terrifying to think about having all of your fat melt off into grease because you started sweating too much.

Still not as bad as the uranium titan.

Down at the bottom of the ocean. Beneath tons of brine which would crush you down. Not into broken and splintered flesh, but into thin soup. Into just more of the sea water. Where things live that aren't so different from you, but you will never live to touch them and they will never live to touch you.

Bring back giant desert scorpions, but now they're eusocial and their queen is a megabeast that spawns MASSIVE SWARMS OF SCORPIONS TO DESTROY YOUR FORTRESS (and your framerate). You can tame them with mashed potatoes though.

There would naturally be a colossus for each of the divine metals as well.

Scared yet? You should be.

New social skill: Ranter. Every time a dwarf who is socializing starts throwing a tantrum, they start ranting instead of doing the usual tantrum stuff. A dwarf that has a Ranter skill of at least Competent will rant every time they socialize while their most recent thought is a negative one. This allows them to train Ranter. Rants have quality levels. Ranting reduces the ranter's stress and gives every dwarf who heard that rant stress. The amounts depend on quality. Scribes that hear a hugh-quality rant have a chance to write down said rant instead of copying a book, resulting in a book that destroys mental health.

All dwarves are born with Adequate in Ranter.

I like that actually, though it should have a mixture of beneficial and detrimental effects, which get better the more skilled the ranter is. A truly masterful ranter can compose a rant which barely causes stress, but instead inspires all who hear it, to make the world a better place!

New workshop: guillotine.

Requires wood, stone, or metal, plus chain or rope and a bar of weapon-quality metal.  Allows you to select nobles for execution once you've picked a dwarf to be executioner.  Beheadings can be either private or public.

Citizens will occasionally argue over whether or not you pronounce the double-L.

Guillotines would actually be pretty cool. Maybe not for dwarves, but perhaps for humans once they become playable?
