Myth- The Chimera originated in Greece, but now can be found all over the world. Chimera is the child of Typhon and Echidna. After Perseus slew Medusa, the blood fell into the ocean making a mythical creature called Pegasus, a winged horse. A young hero named Bellerophon tamed this wild beast. Together they flew into the air and killed the Chimera.
Description- The Chimera has a lion's front half and a goats back half. It usually has a lion's head, a goat's head, and a serpent's head. It is also seen with wings. It can also be found with a goat's body, lion's head, and a serpent for a tail. It must be very hard for it to brush it's teeth because they are known to breath fire!
Destruction- The safest way to kill the Chimera is to shoot it with a bow and arrow(or a machine gun) from mid-air. Mostly I would just stay away, since Pegasus is hard to find these days, and helicopters make me motion sick.
