So ya, first were-beast, and now its a, gnome?  If I go and try to kill it in gnome form will it be easy to kill or will it turn back into a were-buffalo?

A werebeast and a forgotten beast are two totally different things.

A forgotten beast is a procedurally generated creature that appears in the caverns.  It may be an enlarged version of a regular creature (like a gigantic tick or whatever), or it might be a blob composed of vomit, or ice, or fire, or steam, ....

A werebeast is a humanoid that undergoes transformations based on the phase of the moon.  You can see the moon in the very upper right corner of the screen, above the Z-level indicator.  When a werebeast transforms BACK into its humanoid form, it generally tries to flee the map immediately.  So they are typically not a serious threat, simply because their time of transformation is so short.

Ahhh I c.  It was the popup with the red text and description that made me think forgotten beast.
