Building a Chimerical Companion
Chimerical companions are represented by the Companion background on City of Hope. You must request to purchase the background, and then set a +note for staff to review for your Chimerical Companion. Your +note should include the following:

Spending chimera points:
(all of these stats start at a baseline of zero, unless noted)
Stat | Chimera points | Notes |
---|---|---|
Attributes | 1 for 3 dots (need not be all in the same category) | Physical: Strength, Dexterity, and Stamina (unless have no corporeal body) Mental: All have Perception, Wits. Intelligence depends. Social: Not required. Yes, if self-aware, humanoid or anthropomorphic. |
