Features
- Rift-Fused Body
The change that made your people left its mark on your body. Choose one damage type at character creation from acid, fire, lightning, or force that you do not already resist from your people. You have resistance to that damage type.
- Hybrid Vigor
Your hybrid line is hardier than its stock. Your hit point maximum increases by 1, and by a further 1 each time you gain a level.
- Animal Stock
You have proficiency in one of Survival, Intimidation, or Stealth, your choice.
- No Shared Tongue
Each Chimerae people keeps its own speech, and no tongue is shared by all of them. You can read, write, and speak Common.
