After a long time, it's time to update some of the Shya cards. Some got major changes, while others got very small changes to adjust them to fit the playstyle better. The cards are all scripted already, so no need to wait for that.
First, the new card:
Shyan Deity - Spirit Shard / Link 1, B arrow, Rock, Light, 500 ATK
1 "Shya" or "Chymera" monster
If this card is Link Summoned: You can add 1 "Shya Citadel" from your Deck to your hand. During your Main Phase: You can discard 1 card, then, immediately after this effect resolves, you can Normal Summon 1 "Shya" monster from your hand. You can only use each effect of "Shyan Deity - Spirit Shard" once per turn.

The changes done to the other cards. I didn't list their typing or attributes unless something with them changed:
Assault on ShyaTarget 1 "Chymera" Xyz Monster you control; detach 1 Material from that monster, then Special Summon from your Extra Deck, 1 "Chymera" monster that has a different name, by using that monster as the Xyz Material. (This is treated as an Xyz Summon. Transfer its materials to the Summoned monster.) If this card is in your GY: You can shuffle it into the Deck, then draw 1 card. You can only use 1 effect of "Assault on Shya" per turn.
The card used to add "Chymera" cards from the GY or ED to hand by tributing a "Shya", but it's now a Rank-Up styled spell, to get more use from the "Chymera" ED Xyzs
Shya Rising StarThis card cannot attack your opponent directly. If is in your hand: You can target 1 "Shya" monster you control; send 1 "Shya" monster with a different level from the targeted card from your Deck to the GY, and if you do, Special Summon this card. You can tribute this face-up card; Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower "Shya" monster from your GY, except "Shya Rising Star". You can only use 1 "Shya Rising Star" effect per turn, and only once that turn.
The card used to just have her second effect, so I added the first effect in to supplement her summoning easier.
Shya Alchemist Tuner
This card cannot attack your opponent directly. If this card is sent to the GY to activate a "Shya" card's effect, OR by the effect of a "Shya" card: Target 1 face-up card on the field; negate its effects until the End Phase. You can only use this effect of "Shya Alchemist" once per turn.
She used to add cards from the GY to hand, but since her role is better filled with Traveler, I changed her effect into something different.
Shya MessengerThis card cannot attack your opponent directly. If this card is sent to the GY to activate a "Shya" card's effect, OR by the effect of a "Shya" card: Target 1 Spell/Trap card on the field; destroy it.
Her effect now targets S/T on the field, instead of just set cards, giving her more utility to what she had before.
Chymera Mermaid[ Pendulum Effect ]
Once per turn: You can target 1 "Shya" or "Chymera" monster you control; gain LP equal to its current ATK. During your Main Phase: You can add 1 face-up "Chymera" Pendulum Monster from your Extra Deck to your hand. You can only use this effect of "Chymera Mermaid" once per turn.
[ Monster Effect ]
This card is always treated as a "Shya" card. If this card is Special Summoned: You can place 1 "Chymera" Pendulum monster from your Deck or GY in your Pendulum Scale. You can only activate this effect of "Chymera Mermaid" once per turn.
She used to gain LP on your SPs, so I changed the LP gain to be more "significant", and adding the ED to hand effect, but keeping the monster effect intact.
Chymera Capricorn[ Pendulum Effect ]
"Chymera" monsters you control gain 500 ATK and DEF. Once per turn, during your End Phase: You can target 1 "Shya" or "Chymera" card in your GY; add it to your hand.
[ Monster Effect ]
This card is always treated as a "Shya" card. Once per turn: You can discard 1 "Shya" card; add 1 "Chymera" monster from your Deck to your hand.
She gets a 200 boost on her first eff, and can now add cards from the GY to hand. Her monster effects restriction also got removed.
Chymera Goat[ Pendulum Effect ]
Once per turn: You can pay 800 LP; add 1 "Shya" Spell/Trap card from your Deck or GY to your hand.
[ Monster Effect ]
This card is always treated as a "Shya" card. Once per turn: You can target 1 other monster on the field; change its Battle Position, and if you do, send 1 "Shya" monster from your Deck to the GY.
She can now add S/T from the Deck as well, and her mill effect can target any other monster on the field, not just opponent's.
Chymera Wolf[ Pendulum Effect ]
You can target 1 "Chymera" monster you control; return it to the hand, then Special Summon this card from your Pendulum Zone. You can only use this effect of "Chymera Wolf" once per turn.
[ Monster Effect ]
This card is always treated as a "Shya" card. You can target 1 "Chymera" card in your Pendulum Zone; Special Summon it, but negate its effects. You can only use this effect of "Chymera Wolf" once per turn.
I completely redid Wolf's effects, to have something to do in the scale, and not be another destruction card like Cat is.
Shya Divine Shaman1 "Shya" Tuner + 1+ non-Tuner monsters
When this card is Synchro Summoned: Send the top 2 cards of your Deck to the Graveyard, then target cards on your opponents side of the field equal to the amount of "Shya" cards sent; shuffle them into the Deck.
She now gets her spin effect from any "Shya" card milled, not just S/T.
Shya Divine Spirit1 "Shya" Tuner + 1+ non-Tuner monsters
When this card is Synchro Summoned: You can discard 1 "Shya" monster; Special Summon 1 "Shya" monster from your Deck. Each "Shya" and "Chymera" monster you control cannot be destroyed by battle or card effect once per turn.
Her protection, instead of being targeted protection, now applies to monsters once per turn.
Shya NoviceThis card cannot attack your opponent directly. If this card is sent to the GY to activate a "Shya" card's effect, OR by the effect of a "Shya" card: Special Summon 1 "Shya" monster from your Deck, also you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except "Shya" or "Chymera" monsters. You can only use the effect of "Shya Novice" once per turn.
If her effect is used, she now locks the user into "Shya", essentially taking her role as the Halq engine off.
Shya PaladinThis card cannot attack your opponent directly. If this card is Normal Summoned, or Special Summoned by the effect of a "Shya" card: Special Summon 1 "Shya" monster from your GY. You can only use this effect of "Shya Paladin" once per turn.
He now gets his effect from a Normal as well.
Shya Citadel"Shya" monsters you control cannot be targeted by, or destroyed by, card effects. Once per turn, if a "Shya" monster is destroyed by battle, or sent to the GY by a card effect: You can send 1 "Shya" monster from your Deck to the GY. If you control no other "Shya" cards, destroy this card.
Citadel now checks for "Shya" cards on the field, and not just monsters like before.
Chymera Alpha Wolf2 Level 3 "Shya" or "Chymera" monsters
When this card is Xyz Summoned: Special Summon 1 "Chymera Wolf" from your hand or GY. Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can Detach 1 Xyz Material; send 1 "Shya" monster from your Deck to the GY. (This is treated as being sent by a "Shya" card's effect.)
Now her mill is a QE, and is treated as being sent by a "Shya" effect, to give her mill effect a reason to be there.
Chymera Cat Rebellion Leader3 Level 3 "Shya" or "Chymera" monsters
When this card is Xyz Summoned: Special Summon 1 "Chymera Cat" from your hand or GY. This cards ATK and DEF are equal to the amount of "Shya" monsters in your Graveyard x 400. Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can detach 1 Xyz Material and target 1 face-up card on the field; destroy it.
Her pop effect is now a QE.
Shya ShadowlordWhile you control a "Shya" monster: You can discard this card; destroy 1 card your opponent controls. You can tribute 1 "Shya" monster to Special Summon this card in face-up Attack Position. During your Main Phase: You can tribute 1 "Shya" monster you control; discard 1 random card from your opponent's hand. If this card is sent from the field to the GY: You can tribute 1 "Shya" monster you control; shuffle this card into your Deck. You can only use each effect of "Shya Shadowlord" once per turn.
All of his effects are now HOPT, so that hand loop shennanigans can be avoided in the future.
Shya Young Love was made a Tuner, while
Shya Deceiver was made a non-Tuner.
