Do you think inserting "[MAXAGE:0]" into a creature, probably a cat or elf, would cause instant deaths?  And do you think a creature with a ridiculously huge litter size but a max age of 3 could do well?

In dwarf mode:

Dead dwarves who are buried have one possesion listed: their grave.

I've seen other animal gods, but they are generally matched to their spheres.

In my current world, I've seen a giant rat god (caverns, mountains), a carp god (human god of rivers and something else, equivalent to a Native American trout god.) one that took the form of a monarch butterfly (also humans I think, didn't check the spheres), a fire man god representing the sun among other things, and an oyster god which had the spheres of fishing and some other stuff.

I have had, off the top of my head, a Fluffy Wambler God and a Hoary Marmot God.  I think I have also seen mountain goats and fish, though normally I just get dwarven dwarf gods and human human gods.  I tend to have really boring worlds.

I also spotted a dwarven god who only had one sphere... food and was called the something butter of mushrooms. Lol, maybe their food was so bad that they made a god to make thier food better. The closest RL god may be Dionysus/Bacchus who pretty much was the god of feasting.

I just had a god of Oceans.  Just Oceans.  No water or waves, or death.  Just oceans.  I think he was opposite a god of trade, jewels, gems and fortresses.  Truly dwarves are crazy creatures.

Only vaguely. Made of the same substance and put to the same use, but a bit like comparing a castle and a doublewide trailer.

Apparently, when my adventurer retired he went and collected the bodies of all the creatures he killed, and had accessories and clothes made out of their body parts as mementos. I only noticed this when I made a new adventurer recruit him and checked to see if he was till holding his adamantine shortsword. He was, along with a +cougar leather bracelet+, 2 -giant desert scorpion chitin earrings-, a -cougar bone ring-, 2 +wolf bone rings+, and 2 wolf bone amulets.

Suspicion is that he was a regular who made the account for a laugh.

What? You were able to imagine volcano without even thinking of some small furry animal?

Welcome to Murdermachines. Try the gecko sauce; it's delectable and delightful, a wonderful blend of savory and spicy that makes any dish delicious without being too overwhelming.

(Warning: Do not ask about the manufacturing process for gecko sauce)

This is nifty: aside from the thing where your retired adventurer makes trophies of his kills (which you can sell upon resume for great justice), when resuming with a retired adventurer, she or he will be dressed in clothing appropriate to the civ you retired in. I retired an adventurer in a face veil wearing society (dig deeper) and when I resumed, she was wearing one, along with a cape that was apparently made out of a shark.

That's awesome.
