Rumrusher, you are like some kind of mad scientist-wizard.
Well, I made a reaction to pull muscles out of corpses. Mutilated corpses and body parts may give different stuff. Also, I can make short swords, chests, and piccolos out of anything. Anything. Elf muscle piccolo, anyone? No? Okay.
I think I'll leave reaction modding alone for the most part until we've been given more tools. Lots of promise there, however, even if you aren't twisted and evil.
Also, you can butcher a dead sapient by removing [INTELLIGENT] from its race's definitions in the raws (creature_standard for elves). You might want to add it back afterward, and yes you can do this to raws in a save file. No re-gen necessary.
I'll post my craptastic reactions if anyone wants them, but I will not be insulted if you don't.

This is a direct copy-paste from my reaction_adv.txt file in the raw folder. I went through all sorts of things to make something that worked this well. The only thing I didn't try was tanning an elf skin -- I could only get elf skin through butchery and raw editing -- and trying to make it into a bag. I was never able to make a bag, but making chests out of stuff is still better than making a "boxes and bag" imo. According to the wiki, BOX is the right constant for bags, and if the product's material is cloth or leather you should get a bag. Maybe I should have tried to make muscle cloth instead of muscle tanned hides, but somehow I think that would have failed too.
After failing to make what I wanted, I just decided to say "screw you" to all reason and logic.
I will have my piccolos of dubious construction by whatever means. So I removed all pretense of having proper materials. You can presumably acquire infinite quantities of elf muscle from a single corpse.
I was going to require thread for elf leather bags.
Oh yeah, and I associated making stuff into piccolos with the Lying skill because you must
lie to the laws of nature in order to make an elf muscle piccolo. Really, lying is a pretty believable alternative to druidism for magic if you think about it.
