Chimera (My Little Pony)

The Chimera from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is a recurring antagonist in the series and acts as the main antagonist in the episode "Somepony to Watch Over Me."

Appearance
Unlike the original chimera of Greek mythology, this version is different; instead of a lion's head, it has the head of a saber-toothed tiger, the head of a goat and the tail with the body of a snake.

Story
The chimera first appears when Apple Bloom arrives at Geyser Swamp while she was delivering apple pies for a distant town. The chimera attacks Apple Bloom with the intention of eating her along with the cakes, but Applejack intervenes and saves her from its jaws to be able to escape.

In "School Raze - Part 1" a chimera appears locked in Tartarus. In the second part, Twilight Sparkle uses her magic to escape from Tartarus and splits the chimera into its component animals, which then scatter. That is the last that is ever seen of the creature.
