Editing House Escher (section)

===Khimerix===
The "Brutes" of House Escher. Though pictured as some unholy combination of crocodile, bat and maybe a feathered gorilla, there is no actual standardisation for what a Khimerix really is. They are gene-spliced hybrids, seemingly created at random by the whims of the alchemist in charge that day. Some have hardened scales, some have razor talons, others have noxious breath weapons; while some may have all traits in combination.

They are built often as experiments, very finely skirting the line of what might be considered "acceptable" to Imperial sensibilities. Though so long as intelligent xenos are not used as part of their creation then the authorities are content enough to turn a blind eye. Fated to be sold off as beasts for gladiatorial matches to entertain crowds with exotic never-seen-before spectaces, or to be used as attack beasts to protect Escher holdings.
