Hi there,

could someone explain to me how exactly a chimera is created, or point me towards where it was explained in the show? I understand that they are a cross between two species (werewolf/kanima etc), but how exactly did the Dread Doctors do that? I remember something about all the chimeras having had transplants, but what's the connection to the chimeras - were the organs "infected", or was the fact that they had two sets of DNA making them receptive for having two species?

 Thanks in advance for any help :)
