The chimeraspawn is reportedly the extremely rare offspring of two chimera. Like its parents, it is a bizarre, three-headed predator that hunts on the ground and on the wing.
Chimeraspawn are usually short-lived due their utter disregard for their own safety during battle.
A chimeraspawn has the hindquarters of a large black goat and the forequarters of a great lion. It has brownish-black dragon wings and the heads of a lion and two fierce dragons. The maneless lion head has green eyes. The scaly dragon has black eyes, and the scales might be black, blue, green, red, or white. The creature is about 3 feet tall at the shoulder, nearly 10 feet long, and weighs about 4,000 pounds.
Chimeras can speak Draconic but seldom bother to do so, except when toadying to more powerful creatures.
Combat
A deadly foe, the chimeraspawn prefers to surprise prey. It often swoops down from the sky or lies concealed until it charges. Both of the dragon heads can loose a breath weapon instead of biting - one head using fire breath (3d8 Reflex half DC 17) and the other having a line of lightning (3d8 Reflex half DC 17).
Skills: The chimera's three heads give it a +2 racial bonus to Spot and Listen checks.
