User blog comment:Ravager134K/my theory on the origin of the chimera/@comment-74.129.48.220-20100415022944

I think the unpure crossbreeds were an accident, but after the pure Chimera discovered that they could control other strains, they decided to use them as foot soldiers that would take over a planet faster than just letting the virus spread by itself. The pure Chimera use unpure Chimera so that they never have to put themselves in danger. They also have similar ideas to Adolf Hitler about their own race being the ultimate and superior race that should only be served by inferior races. The reason Daedalus looked too human to be an alien was because he was once human and was only part pure Chimera and not a pure Chimera from the start of his existence. I think true pure Chimera look less human than Daedalus. They are created from breeding and not infection. It is possible that Daedalus wanted to create a race of human and pure Chimera crossbreeds to relate to both of his halves. He wanted to create a race that had the best human and Chimeran properties. This would explain the living human bodies seen in the Holar Tower. The free will, creativity, and advanced emotions of humans and the strength, intelligence, healing abilities, psychic powers, and speed of pure Chimera would make an almost perfect race. Daedalus even might have wanted to see at least the partial continuation of the human race to show some compassion towards his once fellow men through his human side of thinking. This would explain him saying that they were the evolution of man. The Gray Tech could have been directly assembled by the pure Chimera. The towers were established as future military bases for the Chimera after the first spire launch on Earth. The Prometheus Weapon was likely used to bury the towers and wipe out most life on the planet because the dinosaurs themselves were the most advanced race at that time and would not have been dexterous enough to build the additional facilities for war when the pure Chimera left. They created a situation that would give a chance for a smaller, more advanced species to evolve (humans). They made another visit to Earth millions of years later and discovered the human race. The pure Chimera dug into the towers and hid the components of their precious machine inside of them for protection so that it could not be reverse- engineered and mass-produced by another race that would have made Chimeran invasion impossible. The pure Chimera are afraid of the weapon themselves because if it were reverse-engineered, they could lose more than Earth. Thank you Leolab for giving me knowledge of the Prometheus Weapon. I never knew about it before. These changes and/or additions to my theory would not have been possible.
