Also, what happens if someone is cursed with vampirism and becomes a werebeast?

I'm pretty sure that the two are mutually-exclusive because of specific tokens in the interactions.

That means we can seal a vampire away in a 1x1 room (it doesn't matter how insane he gets)

Are you sure about that?  I thought the berserk flavor of insane no longer counted the dwarf as a member of the fortress.

Berserk dwarves will no longer count, yes. Also if 99% of your fortress dies then you will probably end up with some ghosts, the one thing that could penetrate a room like that to kill the vampire, so really what you need to do is catch the vampire in a cage, and then build the cage in a 1x1 room somewhere. That will ensure that your fortress is 100% invincible to all threats as long as the vampire's insanity isn't berserk.

Yeah, the default interactions are mutually-exclusive.

But how do you catch a vampire in a cage trap if he is a citizen of the fortress?

Web the cage trap and then it will catch anything that steps on it.

You could also stun a dwarf by dropping it a few z-levels onto a cage from a retracting bridge or the like, couldn't you?

With a normal dwarf yes, but part of being a vampire gives them [NOSTUN], and they don't sleep either so you can't use that, meaning webs are the only way.

I was not aware of that vampire fact.

Maybe you could cage normal dwarves (possibly through the justice system) and then have them converted afterward by arranging for their water source to be polluted, then block access to them so they're never uncaged.

But wouldn't that result in annoying job cancel spam for dwarves trying to let him out?

[weenog]

Maybe it would result in a legitimate case of Missing.

[GreatWyrmGold]

I doubt it.
Yeah, drop a vampire onto some webbed cage traps.
