You mean like some sort of giant worm thing that lives in megabeasts?
And once we kill a megabeast we then have to deal with the giant parasite worm?

That's one way to do it, I suppose.
No-where near as FUN as a giant parasetic megabeast infecting a Noble dwarf and trying to run the fort into the ground kind of thing though.

It's the general nature of parasites not to be larger than their hosts... typically, when a giant creature starts eating a hole in a smaller creature, and starts shaking it around like a rag doll, it's called a "preditor", not a "parasite".

But- but- but- I wanna have a giant megabeast parasite haaaaatttt
especialy one all the dworfs can play a deadly game of 'pass the giant freaking parasite', complete with sending your fortress into disaray due to all the sick/ temporarily possesed dwarves, all the while your markdwarves are trying to snipe the thing in a crowded corridor.

Anyone else who thinks it'd be cool to have minor parasites that go into dwarves brains and cause them to act weird?

Like. Dwarves try to eat the flesh of deceased dwarves, spend much more time "on break", eat much more and over time form grudges and lose friendships ... parasites that could spread, but only rarely.

 Then, depending on the parasite, you could use the alchemist's shop to fix a cure.
