If a dwarf has no skills above dabbling level (no skills at Novice or better), they have no profession, and are listed as "peasant" on the screen of creatures on the game map ( u ). By default they are shown as light blue, a color (almost?) identical to that of craftsdwarfs.

By turning on different labors*, they can accomplish and eventually be trained in any skill, or used as-is as an unskilled, no-attribute hauler. They are often trained for military purposes.

(* This can be done a variety of ways. v, p, l being one of the more common.)
