Ascension Address
- The king’s court is garbed in black, for the second most important figure in the realm has died. Not the queen, nor the heir, but the Royal Wizard. For years, Garen Drakemage captured, bred, and enchanted monstrous beasts to serve in battle. The ferocious beasts have provided key victories, bringing both the realm and Garen much honor.
- But now Garen Drakemage is gone, and one of his apprentices must take his place as the chief supplier of military monsters. Each must strive to prove his worth. It is a contest of both skill and leadership. In the end, one wizard will be selected as the new Royal Wizard, and given a title fitting of his new station. And with the on-going conflict in the west, the demand for war monsters is higher than ever…
- Change Architect to Wizard and Supervisor to King. Keep all special case rules active.

- Creatures Great and Small introduced Creatures, as well as the main mechanic of the game: Mutations (later called Breeding).
- Frog Chow introduced Food, which was necessary to mutate Creatures.
- Administrative Assistants Great and Small introduced Underlings, which allowed mutating to be cheaper.
- Creatures Small added the List of animals page, which quickly became useless once everyone had a creature in their Stable.

Ascension
A cabal was formed between Kaia and Cuddlebeam (If Kaia won, Cuddlebeam would get 100% of the Emperor mantle), which then had Ienpw III (given 33%), and Faright (given 33%) join, for a 4-person cabal, with a plan around the victory condition at the time, which was Favor-reliant, and it was possible to pool actions to benefit Kaia. Victory seemed assured, but after ubq323 idled, Quorum lowered from 5 to 4, making the cabal potentially able to control all proposal outcomes.
Seeing this as unhealthy gameplay, Ienpw III left the cabal.
Ienpw III then proposed a new victory condition The Hunger Duels, which shifted the way to victory to elsewhere. There was lack of coordination/motivation in the old cabal, and soon all three of them were Eliminated.
