Yup, I usually name my good worlds to 00somenumber so they show up before new worlds, then copy and make a lgnds00somenumber folder.

I'm having trouble finding the demon in a dark fortress without dfhack help. I went into the center and a cave led me down into the center of the fort, and I'm sitting deep in the center in a cavern with seemingly no way down.

Should I veer off the center to explore more ways down? Any tips?

If he's still alive and ruling, the demon master should be up in the throne room. Otherwise you won't find him on site. Sure it's a slade tower?

Is it possible to slay all of the necromancers and to destroy their blasphemous writings to rid their foul presence in the world and give the dead the peace they deserve? Or is another new necromancer just gonna randomly pop out?

All necromancers are historical figures, so if you wipe them all out, they're gone for good. That being said, new ones could arise as part of individual dealings with death gods, but such events are either very rare or simply don't happen past world generation. Not too clear on that myself.

I have to remember to try demolition mining next time I'm in the vicinity of a necro tower: mine out a square area 1 z-lvl below the tower, supported by a single pillar, then collapse the pillar. This should pulverize everything but the component parts of the construction. The undead and construction will probably respawn, but nothing should remain of the people, items or furniture.

I've done it before, I think the artifact slab/books remained.

Are they indestructible or can an adventurer manually destroy them?

Atomsmashing, yea.

Only other way to destroy artifacts is to drop-em in a bottomless pit, or possibly by dropping them into flowing water and hope they get carried off-map.

Generic rock black deconstructs to magma. Wouldn't that be enough to melt everything? If not, the second stage of my plan would be to build a bridge big enough to atom-smash all the rubble.

That's because generic rocks are INORGANIC:NONE, which is magma. When deconstructed, they turn into liquid again.

Also, artifacts are indestructible. The wiki currently says they can be melted, though. Either that's new or it's wrong, because I'm fairly certain they wouldn't melt in older versions.

Then the third stage of my plan would be to get two short civilians to take it to the crack of doom.

EDIT: Honestly I plan to simply take it off site and drop it in the nearest pond. If that curses the region to teem with malevolent deformities for eternity, well that's something I can disavow knowledge of ("I did my job, I don't know how that could've happened!")

My speed is suddenly capped at .952, no matter how many things I drop. Why is this?

Also, whenever I get into an encounter with a certain giant alligator, one of my party members turns on us. What could be causing this?

Are you tired? Bandits seem to feel weird about certain beasts being slain, did you recruit one?
