about the webmaster...s?

i'm known by quite a few names, but my screen/"collective" name is chimera. i'm currently 23 years old (04/25/00) and go by they/them pronouns, usually... unless i don't. most of the time i don't like to use labels, and i don't have any fancy college degree or any real job titles or anything like that. i'm a high school drop out who's life plan as of current is just "winging it". as an animal, i don't have a gender, but you could consider me "nonbinary" if you want.

i consider myself a very passionate person, albeit a bit subdued. though i may not always have much energy, i always have "heart". i am introverted (to an extent) and value my time on my own. however, i love my friends very much and believe myself to be very loyal and caring. i'm not always the best at this kind of thing, but i try very hard. i'd be the skiddish, bitey beast you'd have to do a thousand quests to befriend in an RPG, but at the end of all that effort you get a powerful creature to fight by your side... would you take the chance?

there are a LOT of things in this world i care about, so i'll have a lot to say around this site eventually. i'm a lifelong pokemon autist and i'm biologically, spiritually, and mentally enmeshed with "the Earth" and "nature" - biology, ecology, evolution, other such things are my forte. other stuff erring more on the media side of things i like include digimon, UTDR (obviously), the MOTHER series, dungeon meshi, chainsaw man, and a lot of other stuff. i consider myself collectively nonhuman, currently stuck in a human form. i'm an animal! seriously, it's not a joke to me. this site will be a vessel to express all of this stuff, and a lot more. it's a constant work in progress, and i'm always changing how i think i want to "present" my stuff to the world. so be patient, k?

i'm both mentally ill (dissociative identity disorder, etc.) and physically disabled (fibromyalgia), as well as autistic. i've been in consistent therapy for these things going on 3 years now, though i'd been through treatment on and off throughout most of my life. not that my medical information is anyone's business, but it has a large impact on the function of this site, both in terms of layout and tone inconsistencies as well as potential large gaps in activity, so it's important to keep in mind. i wouldn't be who i am without any of this, unfortunately, so it may as well go here...

on the note of D.I.D, this site will be run by multiple parts, or you may know them as "alters". as a result, like i said, page layouts and typing styles across pages may vary. i'm fairly private about this stuff unless i'm not. whoever wants to post will post whatever, and this just serves as a disclaimer to clear any confusion. parts who would like to denote their own section of the site will have their pages linked on the right side of my index. this may change at any time.

i know it may be confusing with our joint site, but coda, who shares this website with me, is another real person, not one of my parts. it's my very best friend in the whole wide world. we met in may 2018 and met irl for the very first time in may 2023. they're my sidekick and partner in crime, and so much more. i could ramble on about this, but this page is about me! >:P
