Each creature assigns combat damage equal to its toughness rather than its power.1

Creature - Elf Warrior 2/2, 1G (2)
Each other Warrior creature you control enters the battlefield with an additional +1/+1 counter on it.
Each creature you control with a +1/+1 counter on it has trample.1
Illus. Jim Murray
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 4/1/2008: If a creature of the specified creature type would normally enter the battlefield with a certain number of +1/+1 counters on it, it enters the battlefield with that many +1/+1 counters plus one on it instead. If a creature of the specified creature type would normally enter the battlefield with no +1/+1 counters on it, it enters the battlefield with one +1/+1 counter on it instead.
- 4/1/2008: The creature gets the counter if it would enter the battlefield under your control. It doesn't matter who owns the creature or what zone it enters the battlefield from (such as your opponent's graveyard, for example).
- 4/1/2008: The creature gets the counter if its copiable characteristics as it would exist on the battlefield include the specified creature type. For example, say you control Conspiracy, and the chosen creature type is Wizard. If you put a creature onto the battlefield that isn't normally a Wizard, it won't get a counter from Sage of Fables.
- 4/1/2008: The effects from more than one of these cards are cumulative. That is, if you have two Sage of Fables on the battlefield, Wizard creatures you control enter the battlefield with two additional +1/+1 counters on them.
- 4/1/2008: If one of these creatures enters the battlefield at the same time as a creature of the specified creature type (due to Living End, for example), that creature doesn't get a +1/+1 counter.

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 4/1/2008: Although Mutavault has all creature types while it's animated, it does not have the changeling keyword ability.
- 8/1/2008: A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature is subject to the "summoning sickness" rule: It can only attack, and its {T} abilities can only be activated, if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of his or her most recent turn.
