The reputation system should be extended to inanimate objects. This would mean that a granite pebble falling on the head of a bandit at sufficient velocity would be praised as a protector of the defenceless, or that after enough creatures suffer fatal falls, the ground might gain a reputation as a killer.

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

Miners are dwarves with a grudge against the ground. They will automatically mine your fort in their rage, resulting in cave-ins that perpetuate the cycle of vengeance.

I really do not think that Toady has expanded on the concept of werebeasts enough. I think everything should have a werebeast version, and everything also be able to turn into one. You bought a cute little pet hamster from the elven caravan a few days ago? Well, too bad, turns out it was cursed by some god and is now a giant weregiantspermwhale and your fortress will crumble to its ruin.

And when we say “everything”, we mean “everything”.  Rocks, water, food, drink, logs, even werebeasts.

Occasionally, your fort should receive a group of visitors who claim that they are collectively a particular animal.  These visitors also don’t speak proper English and seem to leave out indefinite articles.

Following myth and magic, they'll also prefer to use messaging spells or send illusory avatars to your fortress rather than visiting in person.

Wereplants. Urist Mcminer has turned into a werewheat plant and will die if he doesn’t get sunlight in the next 24 hours. Wereplants can make noises that their normal forms can make but in their plant form have no idea what said noises mean.
You enter a forest, one of the yew berry plants begins talking in elvish, “tree statue stage puppet greetings, pirate road goblet, bad nice you untrodden shirt” When reverting back to normal, they do not know what they said while in plant form

That moment when you realize your to late to save your dwarves from the wine you bought from the caravan, because they've already drank it all and your message log is being flooded with messages about wereelephants ripping their way our of your dwarves.

Everything your dwarves bite turn into weredwarves. Weredwarves mine tiles at random and attempt to light vegetation on fire. They will go berserk if they fail.

Every dwarf bitten by a cave spider turns into a Cave Spider Man, capable of shooting webbings for mobility and furious against green goblins.

Anything that bites anything also turns partly into that anything.
