Definition of "Chimerical"

adjective: 1 : existing only as the product of unchecked imagination : fantastically visionary or improbable.

"Impossible" is precisely what I thought, that frigid evening in February. Mythological creatures that shouldn't exist; written off by historians as the creations of ages-old imagination. There are tales of the Mother Chimaera's destruction by the great Greek hero, Bellerophon. Unwittingly he slaughtered the only known Chimaera in existence, extinguishing Her life in a flame of glory. The loss of such a fabulous creature seemed a remarkable tragedy even in myth, but She was not the last....

The Story
<i>
There's a cave maybe half an hour from my apartment, that I often pass in my meandering nightly walks. I never gave it much thought, because usually when I take such walks it's because I have some important things to think out, and the cold silence of the mountain range in winter helps me concentrate.

The entrance of this particular cave is about four feet high, and big enough that I could easily stoop and step inside, had I any inclination to. I hadn't though, not until about an hour ago as I paced the frozen ground in deep contemplation.

...

The sky was lovely, a gradient of watercolor blue, which darkened as it neared the horizon. The moon and stars had not yet risen, but a diamond crust of snow illuminated my path, and I could see the pale froth of my breath before me.

In the utter stillness only winter possesses, I heard a low, rasping intake of breath echoing faintly from the mouth of the cave. Startled and frightened, I felt a sudden pang of empathy tugging at my mind, and a strong desire to enter the cave and seek out whatever called to me, despite my reluctance to chase a frightening sound into a dark place.

The mental urging finally overcame my misgivings, and hesitantly, I bent and stepped through into the cave.

I was now within a dimly-lit, surprisingly warm and dry dirt tunnel, free of overhanging roots or cobwebs, and almost synthetic in its construction. Perfectly straight, it led to what appeared to be a large, more brightly illuminated cavern, which I reached within moments of brisk walking.

The hollowed-out cavern was huge, and must have taken up a good portion of the mountain itself. The ceiling was dizzyingly high, and even with my excellent eyesight, all I could see were shadows above. The ground was now covered with pale, luminescent green moss, in which tiny white flowers were growing.

I felt guilty for walking on such lovely plant life, but could see no uncovered dirt or rock path, except near the edge of the magnificent underground lake that lay before me. The lake was fed by a waterfall, which seemed to come from somewhere far above, its origin too high for me to see.

Several rocks of varying sizes were strewn about the cavern, as though this might have been a place where faeries and nymphs sat and talked of the mortal world, and spoke sorrowfully of the beauty of this last magical place. I could sense it even then, unknowing, that this place was different, magical somehow....

But then my attention was drawn away from my awe-inspiring surroundings, and to the source of the labored breathing. I gasped as my eyes fell upon the source, the one who had called me here. A magnificent beast the size of a lion, with goat's horns, wings, and a serpent's tail watched me benignly, despite his obvious pain.

His stare was intense, and I realized after a heartbeat's moment that he was dying. An irrational wave of sorrow and loss swept over me, despite the fact that I had only just laid eyes on this creature. Silencing my unspoken, but violent protest, he spoke slowly and carefully, obviously unable to afford repeating the words that took his last vestige of strength to vocalize:

"I was the Guardian of Mother Chimaera's unborn children. I, her son, the last creature she could depend on to protect these precious offspring after she was gone. But now my millenia-long stewardship has come to an end, and even the Magick of this sacred cave is no longer enough to sustain me, as the mortal years wear my spirit down.

You were the only being close enough to answer my weak call, and now I must ask of you something that has never been entrusted to any mortal before. Other Fantastic Creatures have perished completely, unable to survive in the changing world, which is no longer receptive to Magick, or any of It's Children.

But you, a human, have the opportunity to save the fate of the Chimaera, if you are willing."

He paused for a moment, and I now noticed a small white egg, nestled gently between the Guardian's paws.

"This one I have chosen to be the new Guardian when I am gone, and all my knowledge has been passed on to him as I lived in solitude; with no other companions to speak with. He will be your charge, and I beg that you accept this. If not, we are lost to the world forever."

It seemed he sighed then, and my heart twisted with sympathy, as I stepped forward to receive the egg. He allowed me to bend and remove it from between his paws, cradling it carefully as he then gave me further instruction for the care and raising of the new Guardian.

"...And finally, within these caverns is one chamber, specially consecrated by The Mother herself, where the dormant eggs of Her Children lie. It is only accessible to the Guardian, and now to you as the New Guardian's companion, so have no worry of trespassers there. You must find human companions that you trust for each of these Children, for if they are left forever in the dust, eventually they will lose the essence of Magick within them, and nothing will be able to revive them then. I suspect that bonding with humans may allow them to mature beyond what my physical body has attained, and perhaps the ages will not be so hard on them as they have been on myself...."

With his last breath he told me that I must allow Mother Chimaera's Children to chose the humans they might bond with, and again, to bring only those that I trusted implicitly to this secret location.

"The new Guardian will guide you...he will know what to do...."

And with that, the Old Guardian slumped and lay still. As I watched, his body disintegrated and became as dust, disappearing in the faint breeze that seeped through the cavern.

...

I have finally returned home, leaving the egg in the cavern as the Guardian instructed me to. He cannot be removed until he hatches, as the egg is simply too fragile to leave the cave's Magick for long. But that is the least of my concerns, as now I must seek out other, trustworthy humans to be companions to these incredible creatures.</i>

<center>Life Stages</center><center>User Image</center>

General Information

Uke: The submissive male in a shonen ai (boy love) relationship. There have been cases of aggressive ukes in a relationship with another, submissive uke, though these cases are rare.

Seme: The dominant male in a shonen ai (boy love) relationship. Some semes may pair with more submissive semes rather than ukes, but again, these cases are rare.


Egg Stage
<center>User Image
Chimaera Egg</center>

Information: As Eggs, these creatures are very delicate, and must not leave the cave under any circumstances. They are heavily dependant on the Magick there for their growth and development, and contact with the outside world could cause an egg to become permanently locked in hibernation.

How to Care For: Again, do not take your egg out of the caverns. Each worthy human will be 'chosen' by an egg, and will feel an emotional/psychic connection with the egg they have been chosen by. They are then encouraged to spend as much time as possible with their egg, touching and caressing it, and practicing communicating psychically with it.

The Egg Stage's Abilities/Stats: While they can communicate psychically with their chosen human and other eggs, at this stage they have no grasp of language, and so communicate with images and emotions instead. The tiny wings attached to the egg may be used to hover short distances, but are not strong enough for sustained flight. Eggs are about the size of a soccer ball.




Infant Stage
<center>User Image
Chimaera Infant</center>

Information: After being imbued with enough Magickal energy, your egg will hatch into an infant. Infants may be taken out of the caverns, but (as is the case with any other baby), must be kept warm, fed, and clean. They require constant care, and are very dependant on their human companions.

How to Care For: It is suggested that you remove your newly-born infant from the caverns now, and take it with you to your own home. It is imperative that they are kept warm, as infants are still very delicate creatures. Every Chimaera is different, and so will have different tastes in food. It is recommended that you find what your particular infant likes to eat as soon as possible, as babies truly are always hungry. Another important point is stimulation. If you want your Chimaera to reach its full potential as an adult, make sure you play with it lots as a baby and child. ^^

The Infant Stage's Abilities/Stats: As an infant, your Chimaera is now too heavy to use its still-small wings, but don't worry, that won't last long. They can still communicate psychically, and may vocalize an attempt at baby-babble, though they can't speak human in their current bestial forms. They may learn a few words to supplement their psychic speech, however, the majority of it will still be images and emotions. Infants are about the size of a small cat.




Child Stage
<center>User Image
Chimaera Child</center>

Information: Children are... a big handful. Energetic and inquisitive, they spend most of their time exploring their surroundings and asking questions. They will start to really enjoy interacting with each other at this stage, and may start to develop friendships and rivalries, if they haven't already.

How to Care For: Playing with and talking to your Chimaera are the two most important things at this stage. Answer their questions, take them to new places, and most importantly, bring them back to the caverns to interact with other Chimaera children. Your child may at this point want a little more independence, so make sure you spend time teaching them how to do things themselves.

The Child Stage's Abilities/Stats: Able to fly short distances now, your Chimaera will be even harder to keep track of! Though each Chimaera has a unique personality, they all love to explore and play games at this age, so make sure that you give them plenty to keep them busy with! Unable to use human speech in their bestial forms, Children can emit small growls, and other animal-like sounds vocally. Psychically, they have a pretty firm grasp of English now, and may utilize it to communicate not only to their human companion and other Chimaera, but also to other human guardians as well. Children are about the size of a dog.




Adolescent Stage
<center>User Image
Chimaera Adolescent</center>

Information: Adolescents sleep a lot. Well, compared to the child stage, they do. They're also bottomless pits, so make sure you've stocked up plenty of their favorite foods before they've grown to this stage. Adolescent Chimaera will usually prefer the company of their friends over other Chimaera, and you will see social cliques starting to form as many Chimaera reach this stage. Likewise, your Chimaera will be far more likely to seek out and aggravate his rivals (unless he has a really laid-back personality).

How to Care For: Your Chimaera will be much more independent at this stage, and will probably resent it if you try to coddle him too much. Just make sure that you're there for him when he needs you, and make sure you keep the house stocked with food. Other than that, he will depend more on his friends for emotional needs, and will prefer taking care of physical needs himself.

The Adolescent Stage's Abilities/Stats: Adolescents are capable of much more prolonged flight than the egg or child stages, and often use this ability to show off to friends and rivals. The better a Chimaera is at flying, the more popular he generally is. Still in a bestial form, the adolescent is only capable of animal-like sounds vocally, but mentally now has a very good understanding of speech, and can communicate with other Chimaera, and any nearby humans. At this stage your Chimaera may have picked up some bad language from his friends or *cough* "the media". Try to keep him away from other Chimaera that are known to be "punks", if you'd rather he didn't pick up some rather unsavory habits. Adolescents are about the size of a goat.




Adult Stage
<center>User Image
Chimaera Adult</center>

Information: As an adult, your Chimaera will have a very developed personality by now. He'll have formed strong opinions about things he likes and dislikes, and some of his relationships may begin to deepen beyond simply friendship. Chimaera are very self-sufficient at this age, though they still will depend on you to provide food and shelter. Adults have also discovered hobbies they enjoy, and most Chimaera adults will make an effort to pursue the things that interest them, and to learn new skills.

How to Care For: Much more physically and mentally developed, your Chimaera will now require only minimal assistance from his human companion, though (depending on his personality) he will still enjoy your company and friendship. Treat your adult Chimaera with respect, and realize that he can make his own decisions now. If you've attained a powerful enough emotional/psychic bond with your Chimaera, he may very well move on to the next stage.

The Adult Stage's Abilities/Stats: Flying is simply second nature to your Chimaera now, and his physical strength has grown enough that he'll be able to fly long distances easily. At this stage of development, your Chimaera will also have developed the skill to use a type of Magickal power that corresponds with his Seasonal Alignment. (i.e. Summer Alignment= Power of Fire). Be warned that using this skill too often is draining to an adult Chimaera, so he should practice it sparingly. Your particular Chimaera's skill will be elaborated in his cert/journal. As with the previous stages, vocally your Chimaera will be capable only of animal-like sounds. Mentally, each Chimaera will have his own unique way of speaking, and some may have a better-developed vocabulary than others, while some retain the slang and profanity they used in their youth. Adults are about the size of a lion.




Anthro Stage
<center>User ImageUser Image
Uke | Seme</center>

Information: Congratulations on your Chimaera maturing to this final stage! A Chimaera can only achieve this human-like form after having received much patient care from his human guardian, so this is quite an accomplishment. Apparently this change has more to do with Spiritual Energy (Magick) than with the Chimaera's natural genetic make up. Sarabi's theory is that bonding with another creature allows a Chimaera to build up the energy needed to reach their immortal form, and this energy is influenced by the creature they bond with (in this case, humans). Once your Chimaera has reached this stage, he can no longer die of natural causes.

How to Care For: At this stage, rather than maturing further, Chimaera almost seem to revert back to adolescence, at least as far as emotional and physical maturity go. Prone to the usual angst and emotional instability of teenager-hood, your Chimaera will be more dependant on your guidance and support than he was as an adult, especially when it comes to his relationships with other Chimaera.

The Anthro Stage's Abilities/Stats: The grace and ease of flight your Chimaera enjoyed as an adult will disappear as he gets used to his gangly new limbs, and different body structure. It will take a while for your Chimaera to adjust not only to flight difference, but to suddenly becoming humanoid, instead of the bestial form he's used to. This is the only stage in which a Chimaera becomes capable of vocal, human speech, besides the mental communication he's been using since birth. At this point, some Chimaera may prefer to switch completely to vocalized speech, while others will prefer only the psychic method of communication, and still others may choose to combine the two and use mental communication for things like emotions and images to supplement their spoken speech. At this stage your Chimaera will have gained, with immortality, a greater capacity to perform Magick. Put simply, this means that he will be able to use his special, seasonally-aligned skill far more often and with greater effect than in his previous adult stage. Anthros are about the size of...surprise, a human!! XD

<center>F.A.Q</center><center>User Image</center>

[]Q: How do I get one?

A: Flatsales, Auctions, Customs, Pet Trades, or as a Gift. See the "How to Get One" post.

[]Q: What is Shonen-ai/Boylove?

A: Boy on boy love, basically. Two males in a relationship. To make it even clearer: Gay/Homosexual Love.

[]Q: Can I make mine a girl?

A: Dear Gods, no!! All male, sorry!!

[]Q: Do I have to RP him?

A: Yes, RPing 2 times a month either in the thread, or your journal is mandatory. Any other RP is optional, but highly encouraged.

[]Q: How do I give him a personality?

A: After you've been 'chosen' by an egg, Sarabi will ask you for his name and personality. She may rephrase the personality slightly so that it is consistent in writing style with other Chimaera, but will not alter any attributes you chose to give your Chimaera.

[]Q: How many can I have?

A: There is a limit of one egg per person per flatsale, but other than that, you can own as many as you wish. Just remember that they may be taken away if you don't RP them at least 2 times a month (each).

[]Q: Can I bribe j00? =D

A: No. Well....maybe. >_>; This is nearly impossible to do, however, unless you have something really good.

[]Q: Can I buy you tickets for so-and-so raffle to count as a pet trade?

A: Um, no. For pet trades, just check the "How to Get One" post for lists of what Sarabi and the colorists would be willing to trade for.

RP Guidelines
User Image

[Main RP Thread]


RP Rules

[]Spelling and Grammar. If you don't speak English well enough to write a comprehensible sentence, then sorry, English RP is not for you. Please, no l337, and no chatterz lingo (using "u", "2" and "r" as words).

[]It is required that you RP 2 times a month, either in your journal, or in the thread. It's not much I'm asking, and RPing more frequently than the minimum is definately encouraged, and may even be rewarded. If for any reason you can't fulfill the minimum requirement for one month, then please let me know the reason in advance. If you keep coming up with excuses month after month, your Chimaera may very well be taken from you.

[]The Golden Rule: Treat others as you would like to be treated, don't take it personally if someone else's Chimaera has it in for yours, remember, all conflicts IC stay IC. Be mature, use common sense, and we probably won't get any problems like these.


Journal RP

[]Journals are optional- if you want one, you may create one and I will post its link in the owner's list.


Development Through RP

[]The more often you RP, the faster your Chimaera will develop. If you do not RP with your Chimaera at all, besides risking losing it, it will also never reach its anthro stage, as this stage is obtained only by sufficiently bonding with a human spirit. Also, your Chimaera will not receive a Magickal power if it is not RP'd by the time it has reached its adult stage.


About Magick

[Guardian]

[]Guardian: The Magick bestowed upon the single Chimaera whom acts as Guardian to the Caverns and to his fellow Chimaera.




[Spring]

[]Growth: Allows Chimaera to visibly speed the growth of plant life. Note that they cannot prolong the plant's natural lifespan, nor can they affect it's normal size.

[]Thunder: Allows Chimaera to conjure small amounts of electricity, accompanied by a crackling or booming noise.




[Summer]

[]Butterflies: Allows Chimaera to summon live butterflies from their flowers to his side.




[Autumn]

[]Dust Storm: Allows Chimaera to conjure a dust-storm for short periods of time.

[]Floral Spectrum: Allows Chimaera to alter the coloring of plant life.




[Winter]

[]Aurora: Allows Chimaera continual use of mental "colors" for communication, and the ability to bend light, causing faint rainbows to appear.

[]Frost: Allows Chimaera to cover most surfaces with a thin layer of frost.

[]Frigid: Allows Chimaera to noticeably drop the temperature of air, and most liquid substances for short periods of time.

[]Freeze Water: Allows Chimaera to freeze small bodies of water. Note that the underground lake is by no means small, thus cannot be frozen.

Main Cavern

Upon entering the cave, you must travel through a long tunnel to the Main Cavern. The tunnel is so well-maintained that it appears almost synthetic, but this can be explained by the presence of Magick, which also supports the fantastic plant-life and likely the impossible waterfall later described.

The Main Cavern is the cavern that Sarabi entered in the back-story. It's very large, with a high ceiling that disappears into the shadows. It's surprisingly well-lit for being so far removed from the cave entrance, and Sarabi attributes this to the moss, which is described later.

At least half of this immense area is taken up by a vast, underground lake, which is roughly located in the middle of the cavern. A waterfall rushes from somewhere high in the shadows, and this is what feeds the sparkling clear lake. Through the glass-like water, you can see glittering rocks and many varieties of underwater plants.

The ground is covered with a beautiful green carpet of moss, with tiny luminescent white flowers sprinkled throughout, except near the lake edge, which is mud. The moss is actually quite durable, and walking on it usually won't cause much damage. It may or may not be edible, but I wouldn't be the one to let my precious infant find out. In my experience, glowing things generally are not good for eating.

Various rocks and boulders of different sizes are scattered throughout the cavern, some as tall as 25 feet. They're very convenient as places to sit on or climb, especially for young Chimaera just learning to fly. The youth can fly from one boulder to another, practicing by gradually flying to further boulders.

There are some tunnels leading further into the caverns, but these have not yet been explored. Maybe in time we'll have some Chimaera brave enough to venture into these dark and forbidding-looking places.
