Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Does this count as a chasm? Or is this normal behavior for a river?

That's what the headwaters of a river/brook look like.

That's just water, looks like the source of a brook to me, that's how the rivers start. I think this is also proven by it being just below surface level.(-1)

A chasm will have a # instead of the waves, and will always be at the lowest possible z-level of a map.

Chasms are just big holes filled with spiders, animal-men, and splattered nobles.

Do traps hurt your own guys/animals?

That's just the headwaters of the brook (which may eventually become a river).

As for traps, they don't hurt friendlies unless they fall unconscious on them.

It means they're so used to tragedy and hardship they just don't give a toss anymore.

Elves do it in trees. Humans do it in wooden structures. Dwarves? Dwarves do it underground. With magma.

I think those are broken arrows and as for the goblin, I guess his headwear saved him?

Edit: You don't really need to double post. I believe wood and bone do the same damage. Check out the DF wiki, you will find alot of answers there.
