In my piece article Man and Beast 21: Lords High Everything-Else I extend the Chameleon concept to 'Naive-Chameleon' pieces which capture an enemy by the enemy's noncapturing move (and can capture each other) and 'Grand-Chameleon' pieces which capture like Orphans (i.e., like any piece threatening them, not just the one being captured). Both kinds of piece have a fixed noncapturing move, which unless otherwise stated is a Queen move on square-cell boards and a Rook move on hex ones.
