Given mostly oats and fruits, with a handful of vegetables:

a golden chimaera with glowing white wings

Fearsome and great in size, this golden chimaera is the embodiment of all gone wrong in creation. Appearing as a mishmash of animal parts, the chimaera prowls on four massive legs, the front of which resemble a lion's mighty paws covered in blue wyvern scales and mighty talons, and the hind legs those of the lithe goat. A thick, muscular body makes up the mighty bulk of the chimaera's frame, broad and covered in shimmering blue scales at the torso and narrower and lithe at the haunches. A purple feathered tail snakes from the beast's rear, serpentine in its movement and tipped with a long, stinging barb. The snarling head of a lion, thick with a flowing mane of ebon fur, crowns the beast's front at the shoulders. The eyes are blue and a twin pair of oversized black horns curl back from the beast's head and twist into deadly points. He is called 'Myrrae.'

He's um, very BLUE. I don't know about the golden part.

Your chimaera is like an (un)holy fusion of Celest (golden, glowing, white, blue) and Glomdoring (purple feathered snake, ebon fur) smile.gif

I believe the intonation is that, what isn't covered in blue scales, is covered in golden fur (probably like a lion's pelt). It comes together in my head, anyways smile.gif

(No, I didn't write it!)

Actually, I think the default is lion's black mane and front paws, blue wyvern scales, midriff and talons, black goat/ram horns and rear, and a snake tail with a stingray/wasp-like barb.

:sigh: Another variation of brown. Still, I like the eyes, and I'll just have to zimoru.

He unfortunately looks more Celestian now. He's traded a purple tail for purple eyes (indigo). Let's try again!

It's unfortunate the scales and horns of chimaera don't seem to change. I may zimoru him again, because of the...purple...tail, but I'll keep him as is for now.

I am a little disappointed by the lack of...I dunno, variety in the chimaeras. They all have ebon manes, blue scales, the same black horns... and his wings don't show in his description at all!

For 25db I demand ULTIMATE VARIETY. Ultimate! Whatever that means! laugh.gif

I just see sooo many things it'd be much cooler to have changes in (horns, mane, scales). And something that bugs me is that chimaeras that have a color of some sort as their appearance don't ever actually mention what that color is on them. The mane is black...the scales are blue...what's that color then? The goat fur part? I guess I'm just supposed to assume that this color is dominant on them in some way, but the blue wyvern scales, identical across all chimaeras, are mentioned so much that I can't help but feel like that's the focal point! So it's making me feel like my baby is just like everyone else's, and only a teensy bit different. Am I the only one who feels that way? err.gif

I don't even like blue.

Yup, just take a look at my previous post, where I bolded those which can vary (a whooping number of 4 possible traits which can vary), and those which I underlines, which I feel should be able to vary as well.

If the wings aren't in the description, I'm still fine with that as they're not 'natural', but even their natural skin isn't even mentioned in the probed description, and only appears in the room description.

It's because a lot of us have trained them with that.

a proud, golden mare with soft pink wings

This mare has a proud frame, with sleek muscles denoting speed and grace whenever she moves. She occasionally tosses her luxurious mane as she whinnies and snorts, and her pale blue eyes stare about languidly, taking in the world. Her sleek coat is coloured golden, with soft pink wings sprouting proudly from her body. Blinking occasionally and swishing her tail, she has the forebearing look of a creature waiting for something interesting to happen. She is called 'Majestic.'
