So I have a moody dwarf sitting outside my fortress at the moment. He is not especially important to me but I'd rather save him. His only skill is engraving so he should by rights be grabbing a craftdwarf workshop but I think I may have knocked down the one he wanted. Is there anything I can do? He already has a whole heap of other options for workshops underground.

Engravers sometimes require mason's workshop for their moods. Most likely a bug, but still worth noting.

Just build a new Crafts workshop?
That's what Engravers go for.

I have 5 or so. I have both the masons and craftdwarfshops underground now, which is why I demolished this first one. There's literally five sitting there waiting for the guy.

Then it sounds like the guy is unable to find his way inside.
Have you checked that you have a route leading in? Locked door? Raised bridge?

Try building anything outside, easiest way to check for that, what with "can't place this here" or a suspicious lack of materials out of stone and logs.

There's about 60 dwarves walking in and out around him    I'm fairly certain he could walk inside.

Update: Thought maybe he had mooded as a bowyer, which I had initially mistaken for a speck of dirt on Therapist... Unfortunately building a Bowyers workshop didn't achieve anything either.

Edit: He's gone... Pain in the ass >.>  time for a volcano burial.
