I got a Sinister Ocean for some bizarre reason. I generated a Small world and lo and behold, there's a weird inlet coloured brown and red. I thought it was an ocean of bloody vomit or an especially dark and gritty desert, but no, it's just an evil body of saltwater surrounded by perfectly normal terrain. Here's the save for your perusal: the ocean is easy to find.

NOTE: I was also running it in my mod which adds a single very large "particle accelerator" building that does nothing, takes no buildmats and can be built by dwarves, so that'll happen in your save too. But that wouldn't bugger up worldgen so I think this really is just a random neato feature.

I thought this happened alll the time? So confused.

Oceaans count as a large biome, so they are subject to all attendant evil conversions in world-gen.

Inland seas happen.

This one was coloured brown which I had yet to see before genning this world.

This right here. Oceans can be evil/terrifying just like any other biome, so it's fully possible to get one like this. The only difference is that oceans turn brown/red to indicate that they are evil on the world map instead of turning purple.

Yes I often get these when messing around with the worldgen params, once I literally got an entire world where all the water was evil around the land that was all good it was funny.
