Decided it was about time to make a new OC, fourth one so far. (One day I'll get Dhaxon back into usage, I've got plans.)

Say hello to Marco Shalia, a jaguar that sports a smile so much, you'd think it's frozen onto his face. Music's always been on his mind growing up, and that carried into his martial art of choice: capoeira, naturally. Marco's family fully supports his endeavors. His sister especially likes watching the jaguar dance around his opponents before crushing them with a volley of unconventional kicks. To honor her, Marco ties a special green ribbon around his belt, gifted to him at a young age. About the only thing that can get him to frown is if this ribbon is taken on purpose. A pissed-off Marco is not someone you want to stare down. But other than that, he'll laugh off losses, be supportive if his opponent loses, and is overall a blast to hang around with. Victor doesn't see the appeal, tending to sulk off whenever he visits Ralus to spar. More fun for the dragon!

This part's for commissioners. If you're not one, eh, I can't stop you lol

Don't be too intimidated by the random assortment of spots. As long as the face and the tail look pretty good, the rest of the body doesn't have to look exactly like this. Just make it look jaguar-y, and I'm happy.
