I've caught a bunch of Trogdolytes.

What can I do with them? :p

Trogs can equip items, so you could give them good armor and shields, maybe throw them in a danger room until they are legendary armor and shield users, then use them for live training your squads.

Well I am just going by what the wiki says about them, but I imagine you'd release the buggers into a room with the gear, or drop the gear into the room you released them into, and they'd just pick it up and equip it. Let us know how it works, hehe.

Traditionally, weapons and other worn stuff are equipped for hitting by wrestling them off dwarves and them beating them with them. One of the least dangerous werebeast attack I encountered had the werebeast beat on a dwarf with a hauled ramie leaf[2].
