Hocus Chimaeras look just like their normal kin, but are composed of warmer colors such as browns and oranges. True to their name, they have learned a wingfull of spells.

Characteristics

Firey feathered, floating, flappy beasts with perpetually fluttering wings that keep them afloat and allow the hocus chimaera to breath a fearsome fire on all adventurers in a single swoop. Despite their magical sounding name, the only thing they can do besides belch fire is peck at opponents with their pointed beaks.

Description Blazing-breathed mountain birds of the chimaera family who are tough against fire, and may lay some good eggstras when licked.

Their sepia tone puts people in a misty-eyed mind of yesteryear, but they themselves are young, dump, and full of fun.
