The Chimera Genetics Corporation, or CGC, is one of the largest and most successful competitors in this ever-evolving and ever-adapting field. They originally made a foothold in the market through designer flora and fauna such as \"factory plants\" and \"fabricowtors\"; imagine growing high-strength carbon nanotubes on vines, or goats that can be milked for a substance with the tensile strength of spider silk. Once they had more funding? Chimera aggressively expanded into high-end designer bodies, both vat-grown-from-scratch and modification of existing bodies via extensive therapy procedures. Their best-known designer critter is the <i>Drake</i> line; hardy, cold-tolerant \'furred lizards\' that are unflinchingly loyal to their contract-holders. Drakes find easy work in heavy industries and bodyguard roles, despite constant lobbying from bioconservatives to, quote, \"keep these \"meat drones\" from taking jobs away from regular people.\" \

	Some things never change. \
