My first "seriously serious (for real this time)" fortress. The name was randomly generated, I think, but regardless it turned out to be a good omen: Plenty of gold and tetrahedrite with the odd bit of aluminum, all stuck in a huge chunk of obsidian. Not a lick of iron, but when you have about a hundred traps outside of the "undefended" entrance and an army of dwarves armed with macuahuitls things like that seem pretty minor in comparison.
Technically this is down about six or seven more layers from the one above it, but I didn't feel like wasting time and space including them. You're not missing much, anyway, just a single up/down staircase.
As the description says, there's a great deal of gold, silver and copper along with a few red and brown gemstones and a couple veins of cobaltite. The cobaltite was a good find, considering that everybody and their friggin' dog gets those pockets of orthoclase and microcline in their forts. - OHakubi

Wow, great detail. I didn't think much from the surface, but as I followed your PoIs deeper into the ground i was stunned by the scale and attention put into the design.
