0003096: possesed dwarf does nothing and goes mad.
I had a possessed dwarf freeze where he was until he went stark raving mad.

I assumed it was lack of a certain workshop, but after building every concievable shop, he still stood there in the rain.
Maybe his chosen shop was not vacated in a timely manner and he did not check again later...dunno...IIRC shop tasks are forcibly canceled when a moody dwarf claims it.
First time this happened to me. besides letting a dwarf be moody...
mood, possession

If no shop is claimed, you are missing one of the shop types he wants.

If this turns out not to be the case, reopen the report and post your findings.
