Chimaera wing

The chimaera wing (キメラのつばさ, Kimera no Tsubasa/Chimera wing; originally Wings, Wyvern wing and Warpwing in previous translations) is an item that casts the Zoom spell when used. It is present in every Dragon Quest game. It is one of the most notable items due to the Chimaeras' chance to drop it when they're defeated.
