Not me. I think of Elder Things not being of chaos but completely alien to the DF reality. They might seem to be chaotic but they also might seem to be lawful with alien cities and so on. Elder Things are just beyond our comprehension. For chaos I think of demons like those in Elric and Stormbringer. Magic is also chaotic.

Alignments in DF are 'socially acceptable to kill' and 'not socially acceptable to kill (though we might kill it anyway if it has good loot)'. Elder things and demons are both in set A.

The latter might be especially deadly to delvers who often suffer from Greed already. Perhaps Avarice Demons have a field around them that instills or exacerbates Greed.

That field is known by sages as "the dungeon."

Perhaps delvers are demons of Avarice.

That would be a great April 1 release. "Fifteen Demons of Avarice"

It's basically fifteen pre-gen DFRPG NPCs in rubber suits.

I hadn't thought about it before but most D&D-style characters are the embodiment of some Deadly Sin or another, wrath being pretty commonplace.

I like the Devils + Gods split in the anime "Shuffle!". So far it seems to be that both have pointy ears but the gods have short pointy ears while the devils have long pointy ears.
