Every mystery creature is rolled at random:
- Look: one of 30 creature bodies, hued by its type.
- Type: Molten, Blood, Lightning, Cold, Poison, Death, Mystic or Earth.
- Control slots: 1, 2 or 3. More slots means more stats, HP, damage and armor.
- Style: a mage (more Intelligence, Magery, Eval Int and Meditation) or a melee fighter (more Strength, Dexterity and HP).
- Skills equal to your Animal Taming.
- 1 passive and 1 ability per control slot (up to 3), picked from its type's list.

Abilities¶
- Abilities only fire against monsters, and not while the creature is below 10% HP.
- Each ability triggers on melee, on being hit or on spells, depending on the ability.
- Chance: 15% + 5% per stage. Cooldown: 35 s − 2 s per stage.
- The creature's stage goes up every 20,000 XP, up to stage 5 (40% chance, 25 s cooldown).
Training it¶
The creature needs 100,000 XP. It earns XP whenever you or any of your pets kill a monster:
- XP = the monster's max HP, up to 3,500 per kill.
- Monsters with half the creature's HP or less give only a quarter.
- In the Haven dungeon, XP is halved.
- Kills in the Britain Zoo don't count, and you must be able to earn XP (see Experience).
You see your progress after every kill as [XP / 100000 xp].
72-hour limit
You have 72 hours from accepting the quest. If time runs out, the creature disappears and the quest fails. The 250 Achievement Points aren't refunded.
Reward¶
When the creature reaches 100,000 XP it vanishes and you receive:
- a +1 Animal Taming or +1 Animal Lore power scroll (50/50), placed in your bank box. It raises that skill's cap by 1, up to 120.
- monthly ranking points: 500 per control slot.
