Well, the first wave of Underworld habitants was dealt with. So now a few more of them sometimes wander in it.

Dine in it, and on it's own inhabitant's flesh ? Obviously. Relocate my main fortress into it ? I also intend to do that, though how to make plants grow in it.... Smooth super heavy stone and then engrave the whole place with pictures of my dwarves killing it's dark denizens ? That's what I'm doing right now.

Any more ideas ?

Do something very ironic. Like put a church 

[Angel Of Death]

Build a giant, magma filled pentagram.

[Musashi]

Build stairs to see what's down the endless pits of doom!
... if you can't, then build a trade depot. Should be enough incentive for merchants to not piss you off. Extra points if you can somehow launch said merchants in the aforementioned endless pits of doom.

[bucket]

Ah, if only merchants would have that kind of awareness.
What's that? With my trade goods such as they are...? Did you fail to notice that your precious cargo is placed on top of a precarious platform over a volcano vent?

No.

Nah, not a vent. An eerie glowing pit. Besides there are not vents in DF volcanoes, only main chimneys.

Edit: I now have met my first deadly dust emitting monster. DAMN IT.

The monster hits you in the first toe, left foot with a spinning !!Necrotizing Dust!!.

Nah, it's actually a walking cave-in effect. "Giant tortoise that EXPLODES the air around it" or "Horribly overpowered effect" would be more fitting.

Make sure the thing is near a cliff. They sometimes fall off when they have the cave-in effect.

[Zaibusa]

how did you do it?

Also, use it as your huge evil king's palace. And make a nice, comfy swimmingpool inside it.

[Naryar]

Relatively easy (but long). Submit my seven melee dwarves to a good danger room session, enough to bring their offensive skills to Legendary, and deck them in adamantine and steel, made by a high master armorer and a legendary +5 weaponsmith.

Then uncovered HFS, let the denizens of the Underworld climb to the surface, and I met them with adamantine and hundreds of masterwork iron bolts.

I lost an Axe Lord (that kept his steel battleaxe because he loved it. Fool) but won otherwise without any other dwarf casualties. Lost a few giant jaguars and a few giant desert scorpions but I had SO MUCH of them that it wasn't much of a problem.

The Rapture?

Wall off all the pits. Now that you are actually defending from within the Basement, the biggest danger to your military is them dodging into the glowing pits.

Also, did you have any fire throwing demons?
