Dwarves can have "Operation" strange moods if a medical skill is their highest and a dwarf needs treatment. Rather than claiming a workshop, they claim a patient. A medical treatment strange mood will fully repair the dwarf, even of otherwise permanent damage. In addition, they will become stronger/faster/more dexterous/etc. than a normal dwarf. Fell "Operations" consist of an unharmed dwarf being claimed as the "patient" of the operation.

EG:
Urist McBonedoctor is struck by a fey mood!
Urist McBonedoctor has claimed Urst McBrokenleg.
Urist McBonedoctor claims shells, stone, cut gems, bars of metal, raw clear glass, etc.
Urist McBonedoctor has preformed "Urshangbalush" an Artifact bone-stetting procedure!

IMHO something similar to that could be a potentially pretty nice way of starting golem races once they are generalized.

Add ridiculously huge yams that take up so much space that they have their own map icon.

This sounds like a good idea, all of it

Add ridiculously huge yams that take up so much space that they have their own map icon.

These yams are host to a "Yam Man" civilization. Yam Men can now be embarked with. Yam men's flesh has the consistency and durability of a yam. Yam Men cannot mine, due to their low strength. Yam Men are automatically at war with everyone, owing to their deliciousness when cooked. In order to encourage Yam Men embarks, Dwarves no longer exist.

Add an official goat civ to the game. And before you ask: no, they're not goat men or even intelligent goats. Just regular goats.

Urist McMiner: What in blazes is that sound?

Urist McBrewer, grumbling: The new neighbors.

Add an official goose civ to the game. And before you ask: no, they're not goose men or even intelligent geese. Just regular geese.

they will however invade your fortress and make a general nuisance of themselves. and they can't be attacked, trapped, or butchered.

[Naturegirl1999]

What if I were to mod goat cigs and goose cigs to the game?

i'd say go for it

[Naturegirl1999]

civs, civs. I typed that on my Ipad and it autocorrected.

[Egan_BW]

Better idea. Add a goose mode to the game where you play as a goose and make yourself a nuisance around the fortress. Gameplay revolves around stealing things from dwarves, seriously injuring dwarven children, and dodging the butcher.

[Naturegirl1999]

I've actually never modded before, how would one go about this? I'd imagine adventure mode/ Question, do geese exist in Dwarf Fortress? I've never encountered them yet

[Egan_BW]

They do appear to exist, according to the wiki. I believe you could use DFhack to swap into the body of a wild goose in adventurer mode, but I'm not sure how much fun you'd have with it. You wouldn't be able to do much other than fly around and bite people.

According to the wiki, the goblin word for goose is "us". So I guess that confirms that geese are just disguised goblins.
