I know of a Rapsody(sic) of fire song called Emerald Sword.  I like the song, singer gets annoying after awhile but I like the chorus(?) and everything else about it.

For the king, for the land, for the mountains
for the green valleys where dragons fly
For the glory, the power, to win the black lord
I will search for the emerald sword

By fire be purged sounds familiar too, but I don't keep track of song names well enough to be sure.

By Fire Be Purged is a reference to WOW, as far as I know.

Conservative: Kill all elves that get near your fortress for 5 straight years.
Death and Taxes: Kill 10 tax collectors. (Thanks Nesoo.)
Touching the Sky: Have a dwarf get to the highest z-level.
Living roadkill: Have an adventurer have mangled status for all their body parts, and still be living.

That could be it.  I'm probably one of the only RPG players in the world that never had a WOW account but I may have heard it in a youtube video or something.

All 3 refferences are correct: One Dwarf Against The World, Emerald Sword, By Fire Be Purged.

Which leaves one music reference, one forum reference and one super secret reference i'm not going to tell you which category it is.

I pull down my pants and take a royal dump on your xbox achievements. I then proceed to run off, leaving my pants behind, screaming "PC FOR LIFE" and claim a craftdwarf's workshop.

Seriously though... I find consoles a disgrace.

Can't think of a truly witty name for these, but these would be great hardcore ones.

Suit of Legends: With an adventurer, obtain and wear an artifact for each slot. This includes weapons, and a choice is allowed between two-handed weapon, two one-handed weapons, or a one-handed weapon and shield. Only armor and weapons necessary. Must be a legitimate weapon, but can be of any material. Armor must be standard armor items, of leather or metal.

Extravagant Wealth: With an adventurer, obtain and wear ten artifact rings, an amulet, and crown.

I think a gabbro cabinet is legitimate enough.

Heh, amusing idea.

Shrunk in the Wash: Have a fort where all of your armour is scavanged from Goblins.

This... is... Dwarf Fortress!: Have a dwarf push a goblin down a hole.

He'll be fine: Have a dwarf die while there's ample healers.

Skyhooks will hold anything: Have a section of roof cave in over a major intersection.

Call the plumber!: Cause the u-bend bug.

Holy Carp, Dwarfman!: Have a fisherdwarf killed by a carp.

Too close to the sun: Have a dwarf get killed by a giant eagle on the highest Z level your fortress allows.

I think this one should be named "Death and Taxes" (i.e., the only things certain in life are...)  :)

Legendary Historian: Discover every legend in a standard sized world. (Obviously this gets harder as you make new forts in it...)

Wow that legendary historian thing would be hard.  I wouldn't be surprised if even Toady has never accomplished that feat.
