Underworld guardian, have them be large dog faced humanoids with chains and blades attached to their arms, a custom metal that is half as good as cotten candy.

Also large cluster sizes, and a rare caste that is like a alpha or higher guardian.

Going to be done, if chosen.  May have the metal be stronger, though.

Everyone, feel free to chime in on what you think the other creatures should look like!

I've got a suggestion for a horrifying beast to mod in to challenge players who brave the caverns:

Their last breath!

Spoiler: Creature (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Body (click to show/hide)

There's a little problem that I'm still trying to figure out:
If I maek their tissues fireproof, their venom doesn't poison things like I intended. It flash-fries them. Like, they literally melt. Before their next turn comes up. If they get bit, it's insta-death. If a queen sprays the venom on them, they catch on fire and burn to death a little more slowly... But the queen's gob-spitting attack doesn't even work, presumably because the gob vaporizes instantaneously.

HumanX has melted x50

So until I figure out why that is, they will have to be vulnerable to fire.

He must have made all materials fire proof with the
SELECT_MATERIAL:ALL

which grabbed his venom. and since now the venom has to be the temp of teh sun to melt. that is what the creatures spit out, liquid sunshine. melting everything.

he needs to do a
SELECT_MATERIAL:VENOM
PLUS_MATERIAL:BLOOD
PLUS_MATERIAL:PUS

and set them to normal/colder melting temps

Well, starting tomorrow, I shall be away for eight days, so I will be unable to work on the mod.  Write up every suggestion, and I will get to them when I get back.

Oh, yeah I copied the last couple lines of code from dragons as a quick fireproofing. I did make a special exception for venom, but it didn't solve the problem. Trying that is a good plan, though.

Well, I am sure I have fixed the smelting (finally!).  Testing is in progress.

I have also added [NOFEAR] to some of the dragon castes, due to size.  They shouldn't be scared of a small raccoon when they are the size of a two-story building or larger!

Oh, one should never underestimate the 'coons. Or any small animals, for that matter. I guarantee that some of those monster-sized dragons will eventually get killed by a gopher.

I have no clue why this is happening!  Every time that the caravan should come, the game crashes!  And I can't upload the save due to my internet acting up!!!

Go into arena mode and try to spawn EVERY caste of EVERY creature, until one of them makes the game crash. Then figure out what's wrong with that creature/caste. It's entirely possible one of your dragon castes wasn't setup properly and is missing some important body info. That always causes the game to crash.

There is one thing that I should mention.  I could add more wagons in the "prepare for your journey carefully" embark screen.

And I have had no problems before this point.

Sounds like it's possible you accidentally a whole duplicate raw error, with the wagons...
