My soldier just bit a weremonkey.

Title. Will he turn? The monkey didn't bite him, but being the badass he is, he bit the monkey in the hand. Not sure whether to lock him up or not.

At least until the full moon. When the full moon strikes, he will turn into a full-fledged weremonkey. He will go on a murderous rage, and kill and slaughter every single one of your dwarves. Locking him up won't do him any good. He can easily break free.

No, he's safe unless the weremonkey bit back. I'm not sure if drinking weremonkey blood will do it--take care to keep your water supply clean.

Do were curses work the same way as Vampire curses?
If he broke skin, he might have ingested blood.

This is a side-effect of dwarven animal training (hit animal with hammer until it forgets that it hates you, then lovingly cuddle it).

I'm not your average Bay12er. I care about my drunken midgets.

"Well, you see I was at patrol duty, and I saw this hairy weremonkey. And I thought if it bit me I'd become a Spider Monkey Dwarf (hehe, you know, long legged). Bu-ut it wouldn't bite me so I bit the weremonkey! Annnd, now I look like this."

You should add the [COOKABLE_LIVE] tag to... something. Monkeys, probably.

Arguably he's already a progressive, just one in the style of an enlightened Kaiser.

Nope. This guy is completely safe. Unless the weremonkey bit him and broke through the muscle layer, in which case...

Nah.

An iron medal.

Also, a month-long quarantine may be in order, just in case. I doubt it works that way, but this is DF...
