R is for Rage, your emotion after your meticulous planning fell apart from a seed stuck in a floodgate.

S is for stone. You ARE a dwarf, after all.

Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion, that violence has never solved anything, is wishful thinking at its worst.

T is for Trance, be it martial or creative, it is always a gift to your fortress. Unless of course, a fell cry is heard....

 X is for Xenophobic. Damn dirty Elves/humans/goblins/kobolds! If they deserved to live they should live underground and grow beards!

 And yes, I pulled this out of my ass. There is nothing in DF beginning with an x.

Divide by zero and sacrifice some of the players to Armok probably. Though this would be somewhat cool to have around.
Oh, Toady already does such things on a regular basis. I think he calls it 'Tuesday'.

If I wanted to recreate the world of one of my favorite stories, I should be able to specify that there is a civilization called Groan, ruled by Earls from a castle called Gormanghast.
You won't have trouble supplying the Countess with cats, or producing the annual idols to be offerred to the castle. Every fortress is a pale reflection of Ghormenghast..
