0002996: possessed dwarf takes no workshops
possessed dwarf never takes over a workshop. He is just sitting around, following his wife who is the captain of the guard, who also, will not punish or imprison wrongdoers in the military.

The no workshop take over thing is odd though. Looked around and saw someone with the same issue on a military dwarf, but my dwarf is just a civvy.
possesed dwarf
build every possible shop ( i only have 1 anvil so I cant build both forges, but built both glass shops jic )
No tags attached.

Is your current forge a magma forge or a normal forge? Why can't you just make another anvil?

Did you forbid a bunch of items after the mood started?

Does the dwarf have any moodable skills? http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/Mood#Skills_and_workshops [^]

I didnt have any iron or steel at the time to make a new anvil (i didnt check to see if I could make a usuable one from something else). I only had a magma forge.

Nothing on the map was curently forbidden except for spent ammo.

His only moodable skill was weaponsmith.

Since you only had a magma forge, this is 0000285.

It turned out not to matter in this case, but in the future, make sure to keep a save demonstrating the problem, since it may be critical for fixing the bug.
