Growing up
Growing up is the process in which an NPC (non player character) such as a tame kitten turns into a larger version of itself (e.g a housecat). Monsters grow from killing monsters and receiving xp, from the effects of potions of gain level, or from wraith corpses.
Monsters will grow up as follows:[1]
- Baby dragons grow into dragons of the same type.
- Kittens grow into housecats and then into large cats.
- Little dogs grow into dogs and then into large dogs.
- Wolf cubs and winter wolf cubs grow into wolves and winter wolves.
- Naga hatchlings grow into nagas.
- Hellhound pups grow into hellhounds.
- Liches grow to demiliches, master liches, and then into arch-liches.
- Elves grow into elf-lords, then Elvenkings.
- Gargoyles grow into winged gargoyles (Although some are born with wings, and hence hatch from winged gargoyle eggs).
