Chimera: Difference between revisions
Unless I have somehow gone my whole life without it happening or it changed in a recent update, you still cannot grow more missile weapon slots and thrown weapon slots. Not sure if the clarification on how others can obtain precog is necessary, but if I put the part about not being able to get precog without clarifying you would want clarification |

'''Chimera''' is a morphotype that limits the player to only being able to acquire physical mutations and defects. It can be chosen upon character creation. This does not affect temporary mental mutations gained by equipment or cooking, but it will prevent the chimera from gaining a mental mutation from drinking {{favilink|brain brine}} or from a water ritual. | '''Chimera''' is a morphotype that limits the player to only being able to acquire physical mutations and defects.

This limb can be any biological body part (including parts from non-human bodies), but is weighted toward being a head, face, back, arm, hand, foot, hands, or feet slot.<ref>See the <code>ChimericWeight</code> values in <code>Bodies.xml</code>.</ref> The limb can grow out of any existing limb on the player's body, including other limbs grown via Chimera. These limbs function as any other limb of their type would, with their location only affecting [[Dismember|dismemberment]]. For example, a head attached to an arm will be removed if the arm's severed, while a head attached to the body is only vulnerable to its own dismemberment. | ||
