Is this terrain from Dwarf Fortress?

It's literally just the terraintype generated under any wall tiles, like the mountains etc.

Shinzy, your answer may be more factually accurate, but I'm afraid Neotic's response was more entertaining. :D

As a programmer, I can tell you that based on that code, there is a whole world underneath the world you see in the game. Did you ever wonder where the raiders come from? The insects? Even the other tribes. They all live underground, waiting for you to call upon them. There's also steam generators down there, that provides the overworld with the steam vents. It's a gigantic world full of mysteries and wonder. It's just a shame you guys won't get to see it, because Tynan is being a dick about it.

Edit: I never said I was a competent programmer. Just 'a programmer'. Leave me alone.
