Today a new system for creature growth was unveiled by Keldarin. Highlights include:

- Pet growth now based on experience earned instead of time.
- Babies now have the same level and stats of a full grown creature.
- Babies still grow in size as they mature and will be able to be trained with new Pet Abilities that take their stats and capabilities beyond what they were born with.

- A new command training UI was implemented which should make training commands easier and faster than previously
- Verbal training of commands works the same as previously after selecting a command to train from the new training UI.

- Wild tamed pets now have a chance to start with an innate Pet Ability.
- Creature Handler can learn these abilities from their pets and train them to other pets.
- Pets gain Pet Ability \"Slots\" and Ability Training Points as they mature to learn new Pet Abilities.
- Pet Abilities can be taught to pets to allow for combat specialization as desired or general increases in combat effectiveness.

Currently this system is on Test Center. More info to come as we find out about it.
