Are you fed up of the daily grind in your fortress?
Have you ever thought something along the lines of, "damn; I wish
something horrific would crawl out of the darkness and begin to eat my dwarves."?
Regardless of your answer, I'm sure you'd love some more flavoursome caverns. From giant mantis cutting a swathe through your dormitories, to psychic abominations crawling out from the deep to drive your dwarves insane from beyond their fortifications, you'll be hard pushed to find something in this mod that won't ruin your favourite alcoholic's day. See spoiler below for list of critters
Introducing our latest addition, Illithids!
Brain stealing parasites
that look almost like squid! Capable of infecting all sentient life, from dwarves to dragons. They
will drive your dwarves insane over time with psychic powers, so be sure to kill them. They instill dread and fear in the fortresses they attack (literally, thanks to emotion tag interactions!) and Armok help you should you encounter an illithid brainstealer dragon.
Our second new friends are dark elves! Here from the deep to steal your men and plunder your forts. They, and illithids, invade from the caverns in full blown sieges! Enjoy!!!
New update:
Added cave fae, which use illusions to terrify any threats that might chance upon them (like a swordsdwarf) as well as cursing dwarves with baldness (bad thoughts and loss of hair), will-o-the-wisp which explode into flames if you kill them, and I also added cave goblins which are remarkably stupid, stunted goblins led by an upper caste of hobgoblins (hairy goblins - have normal intelligence) that swarm underground.
