Chimeras, Head, Head, Shoulders, Wings and Tails, Wings and Tails

Similarly to the Owlbear thing I just did, this one is for Chimeras. Like, honestly guys, why do we only have the standard Chimeras?

Again, this is somewhat tailored for 5e D&D, but you can switch it up pretty easily I'd guess/hope.

D6 Roll	Primary Head	Secondary Head	Tail	Wings
1	Lion	Goat	Snake	Dragon
2	Lamprey	Owl	Squid	Eagle
3	Crocodile	Chicken	Maggot	Insect
4	Spider	Toad	Crane	Fins
5	Bear	Horse	Scorpion	Bat
6	Boar	Vulture	Monkey	Extra Arms

The main head determines the Chimera’s front legs, and the secondary head determines the Chimera’s back legs. Each body part confers additional abilities, which are detailed below:

Primary Heads

Lion Head: As an action the Lion Head can let loose a terrifying roar. All creatures within 30 feet of the Chimera who can hear it must make a DC (8 + prof mod + str mod) wisdom saving throw, or be frightened for one minute. Those frightened in this way may make the saving throw again at the end of their turns, or when they deal damage to the Chimera.

Lamprey Head: When the Chimera hits a creature with it’s Lamprey head’s bite attack, it also grapples that creature (DC 8 + prof mod + str mod to escape). As a bonus action, the Chimera can drain the blood of the grappled creature, dealing 2d4 necrotic damage to the grappled creature and healing the Chimera for the same amount.

Crocodile Head: When the Chimera hits a creature with it’s Crocodile head’s bite attack, it also grapples and restrains that creature (DC 8 + prof mod + str mod to escape). When the Chimera moves, the grappled creature moves with it.

Spider Head: When a Chimera has a Spider head, all of its legs are replaced by 8 spider legs, regardless of the secondary head. When the Chimera hits a creature with it’s Spider head’s bite attack, they must make a DC (8 + prof mod + con mod) constitution saving throw or be poisoned for one minute. The creature can make the save again at the end of each of its turns, ending the poison on a success, and taking d4 poison damage on a failure.

Bear Head: When a Chimera hits a creature with its Bear head’s bite attack, it deals one additional die of damage.

Boar Head: If a Chimera with a Boar’s head moves at least 15 feet in a turn, and hits a creature with it’s Boar head’s bite attack, it deals an additional 2d6 damage.

Chicken Head: A Chimera with a Chicken head that hits a creature with its Chicken head’s bite attack, that creature must make a DC (8 + prof mod + con mod) constitution saving throw or be incapacitated. The affected creature must make this save again at the end of each of its turns. If it fails a further two saving throws before it succeeds three, it is petrified. When it succeeds for the third time, the effect ends.

Toad Head: A Chimera with a Toad head can instead of making a bite attack with its Toad head, a Chimera may make a ranged weapon attack with the Toad head’s tongue. It has the same attack modifier as the Toad head’s bite attack, and on a hit it deals no damage, but the target is moved to be within 5 feet of the Chimera.
