Beware his somewhat greasy hair! 
What is this, attack of the Giant Midget? 
Now you know why you are mildly uncomfortable at night...
So many possible captions here...

Full disclosure: I got this by savescumming.  I loaded a save from yesterday, and almost as soon as I unpaused, my High Master Engraver got mauled by a Werepanther as soon as he walked out the door who immediately turned back into a human.  Out of curiousity, I decided to see if delaying my engraver by a few more seconds would save him, and it did.  I locked a door and by the time the Werepanther was spotted, it had already reverted to human form, resulting in the announcement message.

I don't remember if we got this kind of announcement in DF2012, but I thought it was too funny to not post.

It was incredibly common in DF2012, heh, yet somehow I'd never actually realized what caused it. Thanks for the science.

Yep common message every time the Werecreatures managed to show up at the wrong time.
Amusing for sure.

Well, it seems that it's not when they show up at the wrong time but when they're found at the wrong time.

Hmmm, if you go with a large enough embark area and put your fort in the center, I wonder if werecreatures will always take so long to get from the edge of the map to your fort that they never arrive in were-form.

Probably not worth the FPS cost, though.

In 4x4 embark area (woodland, moats and walls) they almost always change before they get close to me. When I don't use guard animals the werecreatures often are revealed plain old peoplecreatures. (more often animal people than humans, but still).
