Chimera is one of the sub-types of the Beast seeming - a culture-themed kith with parts from many creatures. Their blessing is Goblin's Tongue.
First Edition[]
Homer’s Iliad was pretty clear about the creature known as the Chimera: “A thing of immortal make, not human, lion-fronted and snake behind, a goat in the middle.” The Chimera kith is not necessarily these constituent parts, but it does represent a changeling who bears parts and limbs from not just one beast but many. A Chimera might result from imprisonment by a chaotic Fae shapeshifter, whose many forms bleed into its Lost captives.
Second Edition[]
The Chimera is a changeling stitched together from a variety of animals so as to better fit the Keeper's purposes. They share a kinship with Hedge denizens.
Kith Blessing[]
Passive Blessing: Chimeras more easily detect trickery in speech or writing.
Goblin Kin: The changeling can, at times, utilize Goblin Contracts without incurring Goblin Debt.
