NYT crossword art for game

The clue to the puzzle is a mythical hybrid that comes from the American Quick Crossword. The answer to this clue is a mythical creature straight from those fantasy and mythology works. It is also a hybrid, so we need to come up with a creature that is a mix of other animals or even people. The hydra is an example, but it doesn’t count since it is a pure form and not a hybrid.

Possible mythical creatures that are hybrids

Starting off is the CENTAUR, where they are half man and half horse. The lower half is the horse, and the upper part is that of a human. They are prominent in Greek mythology and are known to be very aggressive.

Another hybrid creature that can be a good answer is the HARPY. It is a woman with the body of a bird. It is a large hybrid that abducts people and eats them. The last potential answer is the CHIMERA. When it comes to being a hybrid, this is the most hybrid one. It has three heads which are those of a goat, a lion, and a third animal head, and the tail is that of a snake.
