Chimera

Chimera

Aug 11, 2022

Appearance:         Chimera appear to Vist to have two faces, almost like a hologram.  This applies regardless of whether the chimera is in human form or chimera form.  Unicorns will also see two souls when looking at a chimera with unicorn vision.  Chimera actually have two forms, one to match each soul.

 

Abilities:                Chimera have two souls and are basically shapeshifters that shift between people.  One of them will be human, but the other supernatural.  They can communicate telepathically between themselves without interruption and view the other soul as an alter ego or basically the counterpart of themselves.  Chimera souls do not have to be the same gender.  While they have two souls and talk to each other constantly, chimera can never directly interact with their counterpart since only one of them can have precedence/only one of their bodies can occupy the space at any given time.

                                Chimeras switch places instantly, with no warning.  The supernatural form of chimera are physically strong and have fire powers.  Particularly skilled chimera may also be able to use poisons.  Chimera fire magic is usually extremely hot, enough to melt most metals, but they can use cold fire if desired.  Chimera are not enjoyable opponents since they can almost melt an opponent with enough fire and can even handle large groups.  However, many people do not realize they are getting into a fight with a chimera since initially they believe the person is just human and then the souls switch places.

                                Chimera hearth magic is fire-related and tends to cause much ouch.  Please do not play with chimera fire magic.

 

Alignment:            Chimeras have elemental magic.  They like Vist, unicorns, and similar gentle species, whom they see as safe to be around.  They are particularly wary of any supernatural who might hurt their human side and are not likely to befriend supernaturals they see as a threat.

 

Lifespan:               Chimera live about 700 years.  This applies for their human side, too, since the human side technically is still a supernatural even though it is human.

 

Personality:           Chimeras have two personalities, one to go with each soul.  The personalities vary by individual.  They are usually closely attached to each other and very protective of one another, with the human side protecting the supernatural from being detected by hunters or even other supernaturals and the supernatural side protecting the human from being injured.

 

Known hybrid variants:      Unknown.  Chimera are very rare and hybrid variants are difficult to determine.  Most known hybrids do have intense fire magic, but do not have a second soul and thus do not view themselves as chimera.

 

Example Members:                            Ezra/Kat

 

                                Chimera currently only appear in the side story Mirrored.

I somehow missed this entry and now I have a question. Would Riven be able to talk with both souls at once? Telepathically?
