I thought you were making this up but that really is possible. (Just checked the lang files.)

Yeah, I once got "The Sinful Sluts". At least they're honest about it.

Ironically, the Elven civilization got 'The Shark of Adoration'.

Most of mine are fairly mundane, but three are noteworthy:

Goblin: "The disloyalty of Trenches" (What? They start off protecting you, then suddenly retract or something?)

Dwarven: "The Grizzly Doors" (Makes me think of specially-trained war bears chained up all over the place...)

Dwarven: "The Strategic Rooms" (Unspeakably cool, yes.)


Also my current fortress within this world is known in the local tongue as "Roadsplattered." Hell yeah, vehicular dwarfslaughter ftw.

Some good ones from my current region:

Goblins: "The Fatal Hell" (my personal favourite)
Humans: "The Confederation of Sorcerers"
Dwarves: "The Magical Standards"

While the elves have...

Elves:  "The Tusk of Attics" (... This is one of the many reasons I don't like elves.)

I'm talking about the bronze colossus. It's supposed to be made entirely of bronze.
But really he's just a softie inside. They all are really. When megabeasts come to your fort you never welcome them inside and give them a hug, do you. You heartless bastards...

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.

I once read about a Goblin Civilization named The Nude Menace.

They kept trying to steal all the children.  Honestly one of the most horrifying things I've ever heard of in DF.

All I've got is the Somber Corridors - their symbol is a shoe.  Though I've had cool Dwarf titles and artifacts.  _____ The Future of Courage, wielding "The Revered Shadow" is pretty cool.

Toady, how much of DF is inspired by Labyrinth? Is Armok actually David Bowie? Because that would simultaneously be disturbing and awesome.

Their flag is a confederate flag with hammers on it?

The Blockaded blocks, the symbol of this civ being a square.
I assume they are a race of terrifically boring accountants.
