I think some of my dwarves must have been Dark Eldar in a previous life. 

One of their deities is   Libash Lururist, "Libash the Hateful Dagger", associated with revelry, darkness, the night, dreams, nightmares


(They also have the awesomely named goddess Rulush Idekzulban Ilid Etar, "Rulush Brainbanners the Ruler of Kings", assocaited with thralldom, rivers).

In the unit list, under the elephant calves on that page of children, what are those next entries? Somethingsomething hatchlings?

Snapjaw hatchlings.  they're from Gustatory Science.  War turtles, basically.

Fuck yes. War Turtles. Do you get shells from them?

Anyone have any ideas on finding gods/goddesses in legends mode?  apparently it doesn't take the string 'god' or 'goddess'  .  It filters only by name.

Edit: Searching through, it looks like those are the only two rotting deities.  They've never been impersonated by a demon or titan either.

For good reason.

No! Beware the perils of the Warp! Chaos reigns there!
And you know what else, worse than Chaos, swims the ancient currents of the Warp?

Thread necromancy! (somehow, it seems fitting, considering the topic)

I knew it! I knew it! DF rivers are actually currents of the Warp! With demons in form of carp swimming there to devour the unwaaaryyy!!

Also, one of my dwarves worships what seems to be a (small) beast of Nurgle. A rotting hoary marmot goddess of mountains, death, war and fortresses.

A few of mine, worship Kimish, rotting goddess of creation, birth, rebirth, death, war and fortresses; she sounds a lot like one of your gods.

I don't mean to alarm you, but it appears that your Dwarves are all in fact elephants.

What gives!? All of my dorf gods are literally gods of family, birth, fertility, mountains, or some combination of the above or similar things.

LAME. The only cool god we got is called "The finger of spines" or something and it's the mountain goddess. It makes me think of a big spine-tentacle monster living under a mountain... or just a finger with spikes coming out of it.

Nurgle...? Why not Khorne? He's the blood god, and has the same 'blood-for-the-blood-god' war cry as Armok!

Dwarves can be picky. Or just worship the Undivided.

And pray to whatever good there is that you don't get Slaaneshi or Tzeentchian dwarves.
