300 human/elf/dwarf/goblin/kobold bodies 20 random animal/fish/bird bodies and 3 dragon bodies all in one backpack. fun stuff.

Go to sleep then fast travel away as soon as you wake up, they'll still be stunned so you'll leave them behind.

Find a big enough critter, like an ancient hydra or dragon. Or, you know. Wander into a bandit camp and leave them to a grisly fate.

you could just use Dfusion to decommission them well the old version of Dfusion will ask if you want to keep them as a companion and hitting "y" will take them out of your party.
I used this mostly for shoving companions into a lair before I learn how to make adventure forts using Dfmode.

Yeah long discussion short I kinda found how to get forts to not scatter when abandon or retired using tweak and now dfusion and dfhack has two functions for doing this.
Sucky thing is that was the beginning of my research on fort saving and now I can't get access to tweak any more due to being on a new pc and os.
