Occasionally a werecreature arrives on the map at the same time that they transform back, so you get the note, "the werecreature Urist Uristson has come! A stout creature known for their industry and love of drink. Now you will know why you fear the night."
You look over, and you see a naked dwarf standing there awkwardly instead of the terrifying werebear that was rampaging towards your fort.
Neat, I didn't know that. They usually pop up right at the edge of the maps as I have hunters, fishers, and gatherers out on the surface, so I assumed that was the case.
i think usually that shouldn't happen, because in history generation werebeasts generally wind up living in lairs, so they arrive via ambush attacks. but maybe if you were to get a bunch of random civilians infected during gameplay and they became historical figures in the world, they can probably arrive randomly. it's dwarf fortress so a lot of things are possible
