Tymeras are a colder climate variant of the fierce three-headed chimera. Where the chimera has lion portions, the tymera consists of black- and white-striped arctic tiger parts. The goat head is more akin to a mountain ram, and the dragon portion is that of a white dragon. A tymera weighs substantially more than its chimera counterpart at about 5,000 pounds. In addition to physical attacks the white dragon head breathes forth a 50' long cone with a 10' wide end that causes 4d6 cold; victims may save vs. Dragon Breath for one-half damage. This attack is usable up to 10 times in one day but no more than every other round. The tymera is immune to cold-based attacks.
A tymera is intelligent but exceptionally ill-tempered. It can speak Dragon and may form pacts with other powerful creatures. There are rumors of a more benevolent variant with a silver dragon's head.
