My scariest moment was when one of my dwarves transformed into a werebeast in the middle of my dining hall... By the time my military got there (they can't have been more than 20 tiles away), 35 were dead... Mostly children

Ah... so the beast did you a favor.

Undead dragons.

A werebadger showed up and tore up all my livestock while I had everyone scrambling inside to my Panic! burrow. I thought everyone had made it in but this was early in my fort and I had no way to close the fort to invaders up yet. It stormed down my stairwell into the main room where everyone had gathered and i was expecting a massacre. Then it turned into a surprised human right at the bottom of the steps. However, there was one woodcutter dwarf who was slow making it inside and was apparently was behind him the whole time without knowing. As soon as he came down the steps without breaking his stride he just whacked the human in the chest with his axe and killed him instantly, then kept walking to the booze stockpile with the corpse slumped against the wall.

At no point would that dwarf have even known he was a werebadger so from his perspective he just killed a random naked man in the hall.

"A section of the cavern has collapsed."

Shit shit shit. What was I mining out? Oh that's right, just making some alterations to the aboveground fort.

Turns out I had forgotten that blocks don't get support diagonally while making alterations to my surface fort. Particularly, the tower directly above my main stairwell. I collapsed an entire tower right down my 3x3 stairwell that reaches from the surface to the magma sea. Needless to say, more than a quarter of the fort's population died.

There was a giant sperm whale on the beach. This was an evil biome. There was a husk making gloom. The giant sperm whale became a husk. This was all within the first ten minutes of play. That thing haunted my fort until I abandoned it.

That moment within the first 5 minutes of play when a Wereskink appears and proceeds to rape your farm animals and kill your dwarves.
