Summary0005827: a human immigrated into my dwarf fortress
DescriptionMy fortress got invaded by a forgotten beast for the third time.

It's a human. It doesn't seem to have any unusual modifiers on it.

This might be meant to represent the lone adventurer from adventure mode attempting to pillage the entire fortress by herself. If so, the intro dialog for this fellow probably shouldn't try to make her sound intimidating.

Also, she should probably be Hostile, and she is Friendly.

Also, while it's appropriate for the dwarves to run from her when she's an invader, it doesn't make much sense when she is Friendly. She's not even armed. In fact she's got no inventory items so I think she's naked.

It's probably a were-beast, but one that arrived from a friendly civilization and during a time when the moon isn't out. If you wait, you should see it transform into something and start causing trouble.

See 0005224 for the nakedness, and 0005368 for a similar situation with an immigrant dwarf.

I suspect this isn't an immigrant but rather an early attacker.

Closest related bug is probably $5508

Please reopen this report if you can confirm that the human is NOT a werebeast.
