Chimera was originally a beast in Greek Mythology that combined elements of a goat, a snake, and a lion. In genetics, it refers to a hybrid of unrelated species. Here on the wiki, the term may refer to the following tropes and works:
- Chimera Beast, the 1993 Horizontal Scrolling Shooter video game.
- Chimera, the novel by Rob Thurman.
- Classical Chimera: The multiple renditions of the mythical creature.
- Cybernetic Mythical Beast: Chimera made through cybernetics, robotics, etc.
- Flesh Golem: Chimera made by grafting bodies together.
- Hybrid Monster: A creature made up of two or more mythological, alien, monster, or fantasy creatures, such as the original chimera.
- Mix-and-Match Critters: Any chimera-like combination of multiple animals into one; the term “chimera” is often used off-wiki to refer to these.
