Khimerix
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
A Khimerix is a Necronmundan term given by House Escher to any creatures they have created in their laboratories, including gene-spliced hybrids, flesh-fused chimerae and other, darker fusions of different species.[1][2a]
These monstrosities are then either sold to gladiatoriums, kept as attack beasts to guard and protect Escher holdings, or make their way into the ranks of particularly well-renowned Escher gangs, whose status is considerably increased by their presence. Despite using illicit means to obtain some species, including ones prohibited throughout the Imperium, the authorities of Necromunda turn a blind eye to Escher's Khimerix, as long as the House avoids using intelligent Xenos life in their experimentation.[1][2a]
