i know that it is completely random right now (and there are suggestions on what each unique race brings to your table when they join) but I have read numerous accounts of other races being a part of your fortress such as Cacame. I am wondering if it is even possible for a random goblin or human to join your fortress or is that something you mod in?

[VerdantSF]

Unfortunately, that isn't possible yet without modding. Cacame is from Legends mode, not Fortress.  You can embark next to the settlement of another race, so you'll have friendly npcs that will help against enemies, but then you'll also have lots of extra FPS drainers that you can't control .  There are a few threads on how to mod things so you can have other races in your fort, but right now, all the methods are a little buggy.

Well Gremlins can!  But they're lazy good for nuttin's

Theres also a fair few glitches where some other races can immegrate to your fort if some special events happen in world gen, but without hacking you can't control em or even get them to move off the map edge.

i have thought of this, and i always felt that it would be nice to see occational humans(or other races) go:
hey, i like metal, stone, and being drunk at work!
i'm going to move in with the dwarves!

seems like realistically that would happen occationally, and i think it would be fun to see actually happen

Das racist!

[Garath]

no, that's a fair description. They never do any work. They can get elected mayor though

IIRC Cacame was King, and he emigrated to the fortress in question as Elf King.  As a non-dwarf, he had unusual behavior.

Other than being a tree huggin badass elven badass I assume his behavior was normal-ish

[slothen]

as a non dwarf, I don't think Cacame could take jobs like a dwarf.  Rather he showed up on the unit screen as "friendly."

[Iceblaster]

Ah Okay, well at least he was the only Elf Dwarven Society looks up to
