Build a giant pick on the surface, at an angle, so from a 3D perspective, it actually looks like it's striking the earth.   

How man z-levels it shall be depends on you.

Ah, wonderful, going with this. Material preferences? Should I make the pick head metal with a wooden handle? And ballpark z-levels? like... 10, 25, 50?

Try a mod ;)

Already using genesis, played FD before my hiatus

how exactly did you weaponize cows into emissary-assassins without causing the expected loyalty cascade?

Make a giant cistern to pump full of water. Add levers to flood the caverns, the outside, the magma sea, AND your fortress. 25% chance of being destroyed by a single gremlin ain't bad!

Use candy for the pick head and iron or platinum for the handle.

Hmm, since you have no metal, I suppose the darkest stone you can find will be good for the pick.  Make the handle wood.

Although I'm surprised, you'd think that adamantine would be found underneath such a well established fortress.

If only you have copper.  Then you could make the biggest copper pick any of us have ever seen.
