Sometimes creative thoughts and dreams take on solid form or are deliberately shaped into objects, places or creatures. The unreal given reality, these fanciful creations are called chimera. Birthed by changelings or other beings touched by the Dreaming during particularly intense moments, chimera may be either animate or inanimate. Some are formed deliberately, while others spring into being at a thought. Others seem to come to life almost against their dreamers' wills. Chimera are seldom what their creators expect; some may be beautiful and friendly, while others are dark, twisted and inimical. Chimera may even be dangerous to changelings, especially those given form through unresolved fears or vivid nightmares. Regardless of how they come into being, chimera created within the confines of reality must relate to that world in some fashion. Inanimate chimera have little choice concerning that interaction. Animate dreams-come-true often take on lives of their own. On rare occasions, they can even become real to humans.
