Chimera has an additional effect that occurs when the player buys a mutation via mutation points or gains one through {{favilink|Unstable Genome}}. 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 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. | Chimera has an additional effect that occurs when the player buys a mutation via mutation points or gains one through {{favilink|Unstable Genome}}.

If the player has {{favilink|Irritable Genome}}, they will instead have a 1 in 3 chance to acquire the additional limb upon gaining a mutation, as it will not offer players a choice of mutation when buying one. Mutations gained through Unstable Genome will still offer the player a choice and allow them to pick mutations that grant limbs, however. | If the player has {{favilink|Irritable Genome}}, they will instead have a 1 in 3 chance to acquire the additional limb upon gaining a mutation, as it will not offer players a choice of mutation when buying one.
