Main Info
HP 225
Area Forest Temple


The Chimera is the 2 part boss of the Forest branch level: The Forest Temple.

The Snake Tail has 125 HP.

Behavior[ | ]

The Chimera moves around a small area until it notices the player. The Snake Tail on the Chimera can attack you before the body sees you. After killing the Chimera and Snake Tail, they will drop a Treasure Key and a Rune Orb, respectively.

Attacks[ | ]

Attack Description
Poison Spit The Snake Tail spits a ball of poison at the player. Spits in a burst of two or three when reaching about 30 or 15 HP, respectively.
Flamebreath The Chimera Body breathes a short-range line of flames towards the player. The direction can change while breathing.
Pounce The Chimera jumps over, or through, walls to get closer to the player.

Strategy[ | ]

This boss is somewhat intimidating the first few times you fight it, as the Forest Temple is one of the most hostile areas in the game and the 2 parts of the body can be confusing since you may not know which one to target first.

The general strategy is to take out the main body first, then attack the Snake Tail. Keep in mind that getting stuck in a corner with this boss is an easy death sentence. Always be aware of the traps around you as well. A scroll of magic mapping can fill in the map to help show where all the traps are.

The Snake Tail can be killed from a distance (via Ranged Weapons or Spells) without aggravating the Chimera, making the fight a little simpler. You can also use ranged attacks when it is using its Flamebreath. Wait for it to start breathing fire, then retreat out of its range and fire away.

Champion variant[ | ]

The champion variant has a red coloration and possesses a new attack. Behavior is largely the same as the normal variant

Attack Description
Fireball The Chimera Body spits a fireball at the player.

Notes[ | ]

The Chimera may jump out of the temple and fall out of the level, resulting in it dying instantly and no key or rune orb being obtained. The player will still gain a level.
