Character Name: Diego Rafael Zapata Alvarez

Country of Origin: United States of America
Hometown: Enterprise, Nevada
Age: 19
Date of Birth: February 19
Height: 6'1"||| Weight: 163

---------------------------------------------

Physical Description: Diego is a tall, lanky young man with an unruly cloud of brown hair. His mutation has given him the legs and tail of a jaguar and furred arms up to the elbow with retractable claws and soft pads on his hands. His eyes have taken on the coloring of a jaguar's eyes and his teeth have sharpened. And his chest and back are pretty fuzzy too.

Personality: Diego is a warm-hearted joker with a bit of a clumsy streak. His mutation occasionally makes him agressive or just behave like an oversized cat.

Power Explanation: Diego is part jaguar. He cannot shapeshift, but is gifted with the animal's speed, agility, strength, senses, and heightened athletic abilities such as climbing, jumping, and swimming.

History: Diego grew up in a family of cops, wanting nothing more than to continue the tradition. All was going well in that direction, except for the time he got caught getting high with his friends, until the fur started growing. He rapidly went from liked but not particularly notable for being anything but 'that guy with Sideshow Bob hair', to the school freak. After graduating from high school, his parents eventually agreed to let him to Xavier's. He'd never get to be a cop with the way things were going in America, but maybe there he could still be a protector.

This is super barebones. If you could elaborate a little bit on how exactly he looks like part Jaguar. Does he have full Jaguar-legs to go with the tail? Just furry hands and feet and clawed fingernails? More animal-like hands/feet? Are his eyes those of a cat? Etc...

Same for the power. "And so on" could stand to be elaborated on a bit.

He appears mostly human, the most pronounced things not covered by clothes being the tail, claws, and some fur on the backs of his hands. And, yeah, cat eyes feels right. Sharp teeth too. Maybe some fuzz on his ears under that hair.

"And so on" would be agility (not nearly to Chase's level), climbing, jumping a bit higher, and feral/feline personality quirks (which I guess I should put under personality).

Still pretty short, but better.

Approval 1/2

...I'll have you know that being a large, friendly cat-man is more my thing, Mister Zapata.
