The Yak moves.

This is now the official motto of my fortress.

Cage it, tame it, modify the raws to make it a war beast, assign it to your commander or king. BOW BEFORE THE MIGHT OF THE YAK!

You seem to be under the impression that we're playing some game other than dwarf fortress. It doesn't matter how powerful you make a creature, we will find a way to destroy it. God is dead, and Urist killed him.

Ooo this is a great idea. I just got an offer to become a barony and made my favorite miner the baroness of Goldenhall. She requires a guardian.

Assign your commander to the Yak.

I have sad news, The great Nimarnish has died of old age, ascending unto heaven to become a god. I have placed her into her own tomb where dwarves forevermore shall pay respect. I will be building a shrine around the tomb in gold and platinum once the next caravan shows up and I can buy a few more gold/platinum bars. Long live her memory. I'll post pics later.

SHe goes into the halls of legends, joining the other greats who have preceded her. Names like Tholtig, Cacame and Urist shall welcome her into thier midst.

Well, it happened. I told you to get a necro . If the god is undead, you can sacrifice living things nobles to it.

Normally I'd oppose such a thing, but Yaks of War do transcend morality. At least the Yak got a worthy death.

I am touched by the level of devition from this Yak. A true saint. None shall forget the name Nimarnish!

Edit: Does anyone know whether there is any way to add Nimarnish as a god?

Gods are created during worldgen, and I can't remember there being a way to force a certain type of deity to a civ. What you could do though, is add a custom engraving and just portraying the godly yak there. I think it goes in descriptor_shape_standard, I can't remember since it's been so long I last added a custom engraving.
