Chimera

## **Chimera of Lellorium**

Chimera, creatures that are a collection of different organisms combined into a single entity, combining the traits of various animals in order to make something entirely new. Chimera in Lellorium were first created by the well known tinker dubbed "Soul", ever since the beginning of the tinker's activities the population of Chimera began to steadily rise within the island nation. Specifically, in the region of Fhoster, while at first the existence of these creatures were but mere rumors, overtime more official sightings have been made and documented. Both the IPTO and LPD have made statements that the creatures do not appear hostile less antagonized first, and through civilian interactions with them this sentiment proves true.

This has led to the people of Lellorium gradually accepting the creatures as simply another odd aspect of life, particularly those living in the region of Fhoster, who now rarely think much of their presence due to how common they are in daily life. Often even proving helpful, as they'll often form habitats where criminal gangs attempt to operate disturbing and ultimately forcing them out of locations. Neighboring regions of Central and Kelton though prove a bit more wary of the Chimera, but generally don't mind them much, while not as common in these areas they are to be noted in having particularly substantial activity near the "Eye of Kimoda" or the suburbs of Kelton. However, Downtown is a bit more skeptical of the Chimera presence, many not fully trusting them thus whenever a Chimera comes into sight some are sure to either keep their eyes on them or begin to vacate the area.

Out of all the regions though, Dusryal and Elysian appear to be the least populated with Chimera, Elysian more so than Dusryal. The people of Dusryal prove especially fearful of the Chimera due to the display shown from two of the most powerful, "Rhythm Crow" and "Subactae". Even though, both of which were witnessed actively fighting against a Desolate class threat in the area. As for the people of Elysian, some go as far to claim the total denial of their existence, since very few have ever witnessed them with their own eyes. Only one claimed sighting of Chimera has ever been reported within the region, but its largely believed this could've been a false-alarm. Its unknown what wards the Chimera away from the area, either the heavy IPTO presence or the fact the island is furthest from where they naturally habit.

### **Species of Chimera**

* ***Murisdevora:***

Description: Tiny mouse like creatures, with dark black fur and a myriad of beady red eyes all over its face, its thin tail being nearly the same size of its own body.

Information: They have been observed biting, chewing, and digesting almost everything in sight. It is thus far unknown if the creatures have any true limit on what they can and cannot eat, however it is known they don't seem to have any particular preference for anything. Simply wishing to devour as much as they can, this has led to neighborhoods adopting packs of Murisdevora as a living garbage disposal service. Turning what was once a pest, into a helpful little service for the community, this has led to the Murisdevora frequently diving into dumpsters and trash cans as they perceive them as a reliable source of food. Not that they struggle with food when *everything* around them is food, luckily, they seem rather lazy thus have little desire in attempting to nom down on moving meals.

Most often seen with: Candivulpes, Cantisbullus, and Araneabesti.

Status: Very widely known.

* ***Candivulpes:***

Description: Fox's similar in size to a Red Fox, radiate a soft light purple pinkish glow from their fur which covers nearly all of their bodies. Having a few dark spots splashed around on their bodies, such as their front face, paws, and most of the tail. Which resembles that of a long black cable with a big ball of glowing fluff at the end of it, the ears of the fox are particularly massive often poking above whenever they attempt to hide.

Information: Odd little creatures that roam around on the streets and within parks, they crave attention and love being played with by anyone who stops to do so, although caution is advised as if threatened, startled, or they simply get to excited they'll unleash a violent electric shock. This shock was at first thought to be as powerful as a standard taser based upon some guesstimates, however recently its been witnessed to be far more powerful. Despite this potentially lethal ability, they often prove to be harmless in day to day life, usually just wanting to play or get head pats. Often beloved by little children.

Most often seen with: Murisdevora, Araneabesti, Apesumartra.
