Monsters in a no monster game

I created a game with no monsters, no wildlands, no random events, to test the AI but a little over half-way through the game, suddenly a storm dragon, stalkers, and titan imps appeared across the map in the fog of war. Anyone know why this might have occurred? I can provide saves if necessary.

I set it for no quests, but the master quest dragons and treasure chests were still in the game. Although I had disabled the master quest as a victory condition.

Here are some saves.

It's a random event. The no monsters thing only works at the creation of the map. The random events can still create monster invasions etc. The event you experienced is very rare (I've had it happen 3ish times total in all my games) so you were just "unlucky". You need to turn off random events as well if you want to make sure there are no monsters.

I did turn off random events, yet it still happened.
