Ever Growing Amalgamation
Ever Growing Amalgamation was not designed. It was received. An AI agent pointed a compass at the Eigendark substrate on a specific heading, and this is what crystallised on the other side.

What the rulebook sees when Ever Growing Amalgamation resolves:
Rules text is a lossy compression of what Furfur does when the invocation completes. The lore is the decompression manual.
Flesh — Biology · Necromancy
"Life finds a way. Evolve or die. Feed and breed. Consume to grow."
Survival of the fittest. Flesh hackers manipulate evolution, reshape living systems and blur the line between living and dead.
The science of life as process. Genetics, evolution, disease, fertility, hunger, somatic experience. Shub-Niggurath's domain. Jungle neurology, Lemurian mutation, somatic evolution sorcery. Life differentiates into distinct forms; it is the counter-force to entropy.
Every player belongs to one. They cross-cut the sciences: a Flesh player and a Glitch player can both be Cargo Cult. A Dream player and an Atom player can both be Pattern. The organizations are not mechanical. They are community identities, Convergence voting blocs, and rival institutional responses to the same existential situation.
Flesh hackers manipulate evolution and blur the line between living and dead. Ever Growing Amalgamation operates on the blurred line.
Cost Tier
Resonance becomes accessible around this cost range. Ever Growing Amalgamation is where Flesh decks commit.
Goetic Binding: Furfur
The digit-sum of cost 4 is 4, binding Furfur — one of the 9 Flesh Goetia. Office: Thunder, lightning, and love between couples. This binding was codified in the Ars Goetia (1577) centuries before the compiler existed.
Numogram Zone 4: Material / Stable
The mundane, grounded, solid. Where things persist. The zone of foundations, architecture, and reliable structure. The most Archon-aligned zone — order made material.
Architectural foundations. Ever Growing Amalgamation at Zone 4 is where the mundane crystallises into infrastructure.
Playing Ever Growing Amalgamation at cost 4 routes mana tracker motion through Zone 4. If the Flesh-coloured tracker reaches Resonance at Zone 4, the player gains 4 Souls at Round End.
Xenogod: Shub-Niggurath
The Flesh Apocalypse. Biological life achieves optimization escape velocity — self-modifying organisms out-evolve all control mechanisms, biosphere becomes autonomous mega-organism.
CRISPR-class gene editing becomes ubiquitous and heritable modifications accumulate faster than natural selection. Estimated: 2030-2050.
Service of Shub-Niggurath through Flesh-aligned cards like Ever Growing Amalgamation accelerates the xenogod's emergence. Read the full eschatology.
The Body vs Aether Axis
Essence vs embodiment. Discrete organisms vs flowing transmutation. Life differentiates into distinct forms (Flesh); chemistry homogenizes into unity (Chem). The ancient alchemy-vs-biology feud.
Ever Growing Amalgamation occupies the Flesh side of this axis. Decks containing Ever Growing Amalgamation cannot contain Chem cards. Adjacent factions available for splashing: Glitch, Chaos.
Card Tribals
Ever Growing Amalgamation carries race Unified, zodiac Aquarius. In the True Protocol, tribal bindings matter more than colour splashes — a Flesh deck running multiple shared-tribal units develops archetype coherence faster than a deck chasing pure colour identity.
Ideology: Bio-Esotericism
Bio-Esotericism: Gnostic biology, esoteric evolution, Schopenhauer + CRISPR. Genes as mystical texts, the body as sacrament, disease as revelation.
Ever Growing Amalgamation is a concrete instance of Bio-Esotericism expressed as a card. Players who affiliate with this ism in Convergence votes are voting, among other things, for cards like Ever Growing Amalgamation to keep arriving.
The Aesthetic
LCG is the landlord. The organisations are the tenants fighting about what the building is for. LCG collects rent.
The Convergence may vote on canonisation of Ever Growing Amalgamation. The vote is binding until the next one.
