Okay, I recently got a trade caravan from the elves, they have annoyed me for the first time since I started playing. I decided to mark the occasion by sealing up the trade depot with two bridges and waiting for them to go insane. One went berserk and beat their donkey and camel to death before chasing the other elf (stark raving mad) down the corridor back towards my depot and into my waiting military. The thing is they didn't kill the stark raving mad one and he was just standing there so I channeled out the floor under him dropping him into the hole and built a wooden floor over him. so what can I do with him now?

[Urist McOverlord]

Magma.
Or Drowning.
Or magma AND drowning.
Or you could pit some goblins on top of him, then use them as marksdorf targets.
Or you could go for the standard "bridge-o-doom"
Or you could channel out a massive drop below him, then channel the tile he's standing on.
Or you could do all of the above... with more magma... Geez, I gotta catch me some elves...

Or magma AND drowning.

Reverse the order. If you dump water on him first, then magma, you get an elf statue to put out by the trading post.

Unfortunately I have no magma but there is an evil forest with a werewolf and an ocean.

If I may apply basic dwarven arithmetic:
werewolf + elf = LOL

  Best advice ever........

Or you could just leave him there, to forever be a part of your fortress. Also, if you ever abandon your fort, you can do a neat little thing: Before you abandon, remove the floor trapping him and dig some stairs leading to were he is. Then visit again as an adventurer and try to wrestle him to death. There's a chance he'll get bugged become a crazy invincible elf akin to the insane human merchant in a save someone posted long ago, who had dozens of elf kills and killed adventurers in less then 5 turns.

Leave him there until he dies, eventually the dwarf that built the floor over him will be driven mad by the beating of a heart long since silenced that only he can hear

[Ze Spy]

do it oldschool and dime a dozen backstabbing(ambushing) scumbags down in there with him , then cave-in the selection

 Nah, to get that effect, he'd have to put the Elf in chains, drop down a barrel of Sunshine brew in there as well, and would need to wall off the Elf (not cover the ceiling).

[Caesar]

Why not catch the werewolf or a goblin of some kind and then designate it as a pit zone.
Simply drop in the beast and laugh as they wrestle each other in a 1x1 battleground.

I wonder what kind of awesome artifact you'd get from that.
