The Chimera of House of Chimeras
Date First Written: 10 June 2022 ; Date Last Updated: 14 June 2022
Our system name (the collective name for our group and this body we share) is House of Chimeras. It's something we chose out of the initial symbolism we found there, and over the years the symbolism and meaning in our system’s name has only grown and deepened as we have discovered more about our system and about the chimera. Along with the name, the Grecian Chimera became the symbol of our system. A mascot for our group, a fursona for our system (or a "systemsona" if y you will), and so on. Below is information about this "character."
