I have recently decided to create a killing room for all the dwarves I don't like (Urist McSoapmaker) after excessive use my body pile has accumilated. I wouldn't want the pile to go to waste so I decided to try to chop up the corpses to make lovely bone crafts. But of course dwarves wouldn't butcher sentient creatures . What raws would I need to change to make it ok for them to cut up their friends?

Impossible with raw modding right now. You can mod dwarves to eat goblins, elves, etc. but they still wont eat other dwarves. Reactions too ignore dead dwarves.

The only way is to flag a live dwarf with the butcherable tag with some utility, his friends then drag him to the butchers shop and eat him without complaint.

Only in DF do players get disappointed by a lack of non-consequential cannibalism.

It can be done. You need to have [INTELLIGENT] as a caste-level tag, and then your edible caste will sort of piggy-back on the intelligence of the others. I think it's more of a civ thing than a creature thing, with the game looking at the entity's creature, looking for intelligence, and then... not really bothering with castes or something. Since your non-INTELLIGENT dwarves have butchery menus instead of labour menus you'll need to use DT to assign labours, but that's no real problem.

In theory you could have one intelligent caste with a pop ratio of 0, leading to an entire fortress of edibles, but I've never tried that one.

Actually, I thought you could simply [ETHIC:MAKE_TROPHY_SAME_RACE:ACCEPTABLE]
