If you recruit an entire trading caravan (in this case the Elder Thing and its two minions), does the game acknowledge your command of all their wares?

Yes, all things in trade caravans actually carried by pawns (and pack animals).
In this case - yes, we get everything. But that's not a caravan.
Caravan = lots of people, lots of goods, pack animals, cannot be recruited.
Visitors = few people, few goods, no pack animals, can be recruited.

Holy crap, that multiheaded mess Bliblablubb is almost as ugly as Ryan was!
Still, ya never know, dude could come in handy. I mean he looks like he could take quite a beating.
Keep ITZ raiders busy, wiggle around, soak up their blows and bullets, that sort of thing.

That's racist! Reported. I am beautifuuuuuuuuuuuuul in my own way. More than a one-eyed bad-cop at least.
5 tentacles! Just be thankful the crazy dude will take over Azira's anal candle duties instead.
Also, apparently I am a tentacled womyn, romantic and not gay. Dis gun be gud.
Mechanics question: Since I am incapable of manual labor, are all those non-combat skills wasted, or can I at least train an army of beserker deers? Also, as awsome as it would be to wield flaming arbalets in each lovetentacle, can I even wield ranged weapons at all?

Only some types of work got disabled (hauling, cleaning, plant cutting ...). Pretty much any work based on non blank skill allowed. In this case - mining, cooking, training animals...
As for weapons:
Elder things have their weapons of choice - lazors.

About that grimoire;
It's research material, and glorious KKK progresses on the shoulders and pain of others. In this case, Spigots.

Also, it would be hilarious to have Spigot research his own notes. 
The Elder Thing is fascinated by my anal candles?

You can't do shit.
I honestly don't know what to do with you. Maybe send you out on an expedition or sumth - we'll see how it goes.Elder Things get their own race-restricted weapons. I'll show them in the next update. You can't use human weapons, because... sigh. Look at me talking to an Eldrich abomination, trying to expalin why can't she use human weapons. Fuck my life.
She is fascinated by your sarcophagus, which is carved in shape of a candle. A little rough on the edges, just how you made them.

You should have her train some Shoggoths for the Codex army, of course. Expedition sounds like a good idea, maybe she'll find some!

Oooh, the Forbidden Grimore!
I hope that KKK won't summon Dagon, or Shub-Niggurath or whatever, seems kinda counter-productive to establishing a workers' paradise.

Aubergine Abomination is adorable 
Okay, so this lazor might seem a bit too much. It isn't compatible with combat extended mod, and thus doesn't require ammo of any sort. Not to mention it's deadly as fuck. Some might even say it's cheaty.
In my defense:
1. Cooldown time is significant - one lazor won't make a difference in a massive battle.
2. I couldn't force myself to exclude Elder Things mod from my mod list, just because of this lazor. It's a huge chunk of Lovecraftian content, men.
3. Combat Extended mod increases mortality to extreme levels. Any random bullet can easily insta-kill a colonist. You don't need a lazor for that.
4. We could restrain from using those altogether, but this is the only weapon usable by the Elder Things.
5. Last but not least, IT'S FUN!

Wanna know how I lost muh eye?
Wait. Where is the slave? And what loot did we get by converting the Elder Thing?
Everything Bliblablubb was carrying is ours now. You can see it here in the left part of the screen:
She is not a slave anymore.
You'll see soon enough.

Lazors, there is nothing they can't do. Just don't go near line of fire - or naughty tentacle can move by itself...
Vanilla don't have bullet simulation - so anything which goes nearby line of fire have a chance to get bullet in the back (for teh drama purposes).
In CE weapons randomly fire in cone (calculated from shooting skill and weapon characteristics) - so as long as you properly guessed cone of fire - you can walk near it without problems.

Heh, that archer sure isn't gonna fire any more arrows now. Unless they do a robo-cop on him.

Move aside Kalinski, there's a new sheriff in town!
And she's wielding a.... 40kg laser that requires 5 tentacles to operate and cuts a man in half.

FUCK YEAH!
I may just be a useless aubergine abomination, but there won't be any deer invasions on my watch.
Also technically I would be able to hear Grimwulf's head voices as well, right? Heh.

I might not check in for a while but consider me prepared to dive into all this spooky shit with much enthusiasm
