A wise adventurer would burn a forest retreat...  Think of the rewards your god would heap upon you.  And that's after you return home a National hero.
"To you Urist, I give you the gift of global warming. Enjoy."
This can happen, I generated a world so hot it literally melts any person who stands outside too long.
Its used in a succession fort. Go read TrialFires.
I can one up you with Sol. Everything outside for even a tick vaporized.

So basically its impossible to start a fort there?

Ofcourse it is possible. You just don't stay outside? I guess that kind of logic doesn't work in Dwarf Fortress.

One guy managed to get a few Dwarves underground in time by stripping them of their clothes. This meant that if they escaped, they were safe from the burning. From there they could carve out a suitable living in the caverns. However, if a single Dwarf died they usually spiraled (I remember watching melancholy Dwarves walk into the sun), and now naked Dwarves go insane very quickly. I might want to remake that world.

Everything vaporized. Corpses, metal, rivers... When it rained, clouds of steam would blister the surface too. HA HA!
I am def. remaking that world now. Dammit bay12, why do you consume time so?

Even now, Toady is working on trees...

"Elf":
We have no beginning, we have no end, we, are infinite.
Millions of years after your civilization has been eradicated and forgotten, we will endure.

My kind transcends your very understanding.
We are each a nation, independent, free of all weakness.
You cannot even grasp the nature of our existence.

We are legion. The time of our return is coming.
Our numbers will darken the fields of every world.
You cannot escape your doom.

Seriously, the best bet for Elves is literally to do nothing and wait for the Dwarves to do something awesome that results in their own destruction.

Kobolds are mystical elf wannabes anyhow.  They worship animals and nature in their little hovels.  Neaderthals with scales is what they are.

Based on their size, they are the pinnacle of crundle evolution.

Kobolds are our greatest ally against the elves now.

The humans are mystified by their tricks and claims of 'desire for the betterment of nature.'

The greenskins? Hm, seeing as the elves already overshadow them, they may well be gone.

The animal men are too far gone in their reliance on the trees, save the primitive cave peoples, who are powerless to fight the elf threat.

Kobolds and dwarves may need to ally in a world that has turned all against them, and while they still stand strong!

But seriously, someone needs to turn this into a mod
