I had a legenday engraver without knowing about it.
At some point i was trying to get though the pause spam that occurs when kobolds invade. Apparently, i missed that one of those pauses was about a farmer gettting fey and that another was about her claiming a craftsdwarf workshop. Later when i was expanding my industrial area below the artifial lake i somehow missed the start of construction and completion of her chert amulet in yet another dose of cancelation messages.

About 1 and a half year later i was overseeing the farms and i noticed a flashing white/grey dwarf constantly running arround. Curious what one of my masons/engravers was doing here, i took a closer look and i was pretty suprised to see that she had only farming duties and that she was holding Mirrorbodices the Bold Chant. So i looked in my gamelog and discovered what happened.

Recordkeeping is like legendary soldier boot camp.  Nothing turns a peasant legendary faster.
You might say the pen makes dwarves mightier with the sword.

Just found out; fireballs do indeed increase throwing skill.  Marksdwarves?  Screw'em.  I'm going to have an ambush hallway with wrestlers behind the arrow slits.

I'm currently working on getting a Legendary Brewer, have him set up with his own Still.  

I also got a Legendary Gem Cutter, made a Moss Agate Puzzle Box.

Is it currently possible to get Legendary Strand Extractor? The only way I can think of one might do so is to get one dwarf to extract all the Adamantine at one site, then abandon, start another fortress, and somehow have that dwarf arrive as part of a migrant group and repeat. Because there isn't enough in one mountain tile.

I'm damn well trying though in my main fortress. He's competent now, and I've only mined out about two levels of adamantine, which was only like, 40 units of the stuff. I've got plenty more before the HIDDEN FUN STUFF begins.

There maybe something with the [LEADER_TYPE] to create a civilization with a Legendary Strand Extraction Overlord.

Would probably die of old age before you got it though, honestly.

Most obscure legendary i ever got was a legendary mechanic which i know is not that farfetched, but i never get the really cool "macabre" moods, i always wished i would, but im a perfectionist and strive to keep my dwarves ecstatic. I just remember seeing him take over the mechanics shop and thinking 'wow, i already know how retarded this artifact is gonna be'.

I too had a legendary gem cutter once.  The fortress is long gone, but it was from a fey mood.  I don't remember quite what he made.  He immediately became invaluable, as I set him to cutting the glass made by 10+ glass furnaces and a swarm of glass haulers.  He became the center of the economy of that particular fort, and through his cutting, I got 5 legendary glass makers.  When he would stop cutting, raw glass would pile up until they no longer fit in the (small) stockpiles.  This was enough to keep him busy for 1 day, and then we all returned to make more glass...

Legendary liar is easy.  In my fort, nearly every dwarf is legendary in the usual series of social skills: I have an idling problem.  I will have even peasants and children that are legendary in all said social skills.  They blink like other legendaries, but are still peasants.
