The Chimera Registry: Three minds one body no escape

By Richard Bryan Autry

"The Chimera Registry" is a provocative bio-punk thriller that explores the shifting boundaries of identity in an age of genetic totalism. In a future where the human genome is a playground for aesthetic and functional modification, "Chimeras"-individuals augmented with DNA from extinct predators, bioluminescent deep-sea life, and resilient flora-occupy a specialized tier of society.
The protagonist, Kaelen, is a high-level Chimera whose hyper-adaptability and sensory enhancements make them a premier operative for survival in the world's most hostile environments. Kaelen has always believed their unique traits were a gift of parental selection-until the "glitches" begin.
Gaps in memory and sudden shifts in temperament reveal a terrifying truth: Kaelen's genetic sequence was never a mosaic of animal traits, but a secret, experimental project known as the Trinity Protocol. Their DNA is a biological fusion of three distinct historical figures, and as Kaelen's body matures, these three dormant consciousnesses are waking up.
As the internal battle for a single identity intensifies, Kaelen is forced into a race against their own deteriorating mind. They must navigate a landscape of corporate conspiracy and "genetic ownership" to find the original project creators-the only people capable of stabilizing their sequence. To survive, Kaelen must decide which of the three voices is the "true" self, or if they can forge a new identity from the wreckage of three past lives before their consciousness is torn apart from within.
