Bellerophon Bellerophon Bellerophon (; Ancient Greek: Βελλεροφῶν) or Bellerophontes () is a hero of Greek mythology. He was "the greatest hero and slayer of monsters, alongside Cadmus and Perseus, before the days of Heracles", and his greatest feat was killing the Chimera, a monster that Homer depicted with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a serpent's tail: "her breath came out in terrible blasts of burning flame." Bellerophon was born at Corinth and was the son of the mortal Eurynome by either her husband Glaucus, or Poseidon. One possible etymology that has been suggested is: Βελλεροφόντης from βέλεμνον, βελόνη, βέλος
Chimera (Dungeons & Dragons) can see into both the Astral and Ethereal planes, and its breath weapon extends therein. Like its relative the chimera, the gorgimera can also speak a limited form of the language of red dragons. In the Eberron campaign setting, the chimera is the heraldic beast of the dragonmarked House Deneith. The chimera appeared in Paizo Publishing's book "Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Bestiary" (2009), on page 44. The chimera is fully detailed in Paizo Publishing's book "Mythical Monsters Revisited" (2012), on pages 4–9. The chimera appears in the "D&D" Miniatures: War Drums set #45 (2006).
