Chimera

History
The Chimera is a beast that has an unknown past, seemingly found around the world since time began atop mountains and near volcanoes. Not much is known about these creatures, other than that they are formidable beasts that tear creatures apart and hunt with deadly accuracy, and always have. They have long been feared by all races, and their presence is often times seen as a bad omen, if not outright death.

There are six known species of Chimera;
 * 1) The Chimera - The first discovered, and most common, of the Chimera family.
 * 2) Skeletal Chimera
 * 3) Three-Headed Chimera
 * 4) Discordius Chimera
 * 5) Reveant Chimera
 * 6) Devil Chimera

Behavior
All that is known about Chimera is that they hunt and maintain large territories, willing to vomit their latest meal in order to hunt an intruder to their territory more effectively.

Appearance
The Chimera has the head of a ram with massive horns sprotuing from its top, with the face of a lion upon its throat - which is uses to eat, whilst still looking around via the goat head. It has the large and powerful body of a lion, with a long and slender tail that ends with a snake, which can deliver deadly venom into its prey. The Chimera is roughly the same size as a Lion, excluding the tail which can be twice as long as the body itself.

Strengths and Weaknesses
The Chimera Possesses great physical power and endurance, able to run longer than a lion and utilize the strength of a fully grown grizzly bear. It can run at speeds of up to 60 mph for an hour without tiring, and jump up to 10 feet into the air, able to climb up most surfaces. Its serpentine tail possesses a venom that can kill a full-grown bear in an hour, and a man in 1/4th the time. It possesses some intelligence, able to plan ambushes and the sort.

However, magic is its uttermost weakness. The Chimera has no defense against any form of magic, and so magi have little problem handling these beasts.
