'''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.

When the player is prompted to pick a mutation, one of the three options will denote that picking it will cause the player to grow a new limb, in addition to gaining the chosen mutation. This limb can be any biological body part (including parts from non-human bodies), but is weighted toward limbs that possess equipment slots. The limb can grow out of any existing limb on the player's body, including other limbs grown via Chimera. Regardless of location, limbs will function as any other limb of their type would. | ||

Mutations gained through Unstable Genome will still offer the player a choice and allow them to pick mutations that grant limbs, however. | ||
