All the right bones.

Not necessarily in the right order.

This is a statue of Urist McAssholeNoble in dwarf bone, Urist McAssholeNoble is shoving his head up his ass. This relates to the insulting of Urist McAssholeNoble by Urist McFellMood in the year 543.

I try my best.

So very Xeivous.  Well done!

But skeletons have no butts!

You just place the head where the butt would be.

Joining the Cult of Bones with a subculture for ghost removal.

Any tips to keep them unhappy?  I went with dirt floors, a well, and plump helmets for food.  They are in a burrow that doesn't contain the well to make them constantly thirsty (they should leave the burrow to drink from the well, i hope).  Butchery and Tannery nearby in a separate burrow that they can be switched to.  The second burrow will be expanded to include the ghost after they claim their shop.  Sanity check my setup please!

I find that embarking on an evil biome works wonders for fell moods. Just draft non-skilled peasants against their wishes and have then fight the undead outside in the freakish weather. Then keep them there so they get enraged about long patrol duty.

Their Axe Lord ran un-impeded across 21 lines of weapon traps made with three iron trap components each.  It was like the traps weren't even there.  He slaughtered almost everyone.

Two suggestions:

Weapon traps attack with a 'weapon skill' level, equivalent to the quality of the mechanism used in the construction of the trap.  Use exceptional/masterwork mechanisms.  If your mechanic isn't that good yet, mass-produce mechanisms until your mechanic is that good.

Use 10 weapons in each weapon trap.  It's okay if the other 7 weapons are crap/green glass/goblinite.  Some will be deflected, but I don't think I've ever seen a goblin in full metal body armor.  Green glass discs are quite sufficient for slashing throats.
