Tomas is a handsome young man, his mixed heritage give him a unique look, tanned skin, dark, smoldering eyes, and thick black hair, which he keeps buzzed to the scalp.  His nose is somewhat crooked, as it has been broken at least once over the course of his career, and he sports an almost perpetual three days growth along his jaw, however this seems to enhance his look, rather than detract from it.  He maintains an intensive, if almost obsessive workout regimen, and while he stands of average height, his lithe body is well defined with packed, corded muscle.  His chest, shoulders and back are heavily tattooed, however the most distinctive is the street script that flows along his left collarbone over his heart, which states simply, 'Be Fearless', and he has a unique fusion of the Aztec calendar and a Native medicine wheel over his right pectoral and shoulder. 

 

In his role as an auditor, he dresses professionally, black slacks, a crisp white dress shirt, a contrasting tie, and cuff links given him by his grandfather.  However, in his day to day life he dresses somewhat more casually, loose fit, low riding jeans, work boots, and hoodies, though it is when he adorns his wrestling gear that he feels the most alive, vibrant and energetic.  Classic black leather lace ups that come up to his knees, yellow, black and red leggings that evoke the jaguar motif, his arm guards, a tanned leather with black strapping and tufts of faux animal fur, and final his lucha mask.  Yellow and black with an asymmetric design, again evoking that feral, predatory cat like motif, adorned eyes, and a slit for his mouth, often seen with gritted teeth as he fights the odds. 

 

Power Descriptions:

 

Tomas is a skilled young man, having committed himself to his craft, as much as the sport is scripted, the practitioners are incredibly gifted athletes, able to take the hits, and perform under grueling circumstances for prolonged periods of time.  Prior to his match with Victor Raze, and the injuries he sustained, Tomas was one of the top billed athletes in the TRP, having earned the respect of promoters, fans, and the locker room itself.

 

With the assistance of his manager, Caceres, Tomas was admitted to an Asclepian clinic located in Argentina.  Through a series of biochemical treatments, including accelerated steroid growth, that were then activated by irradiating the tissue, the clinic was able to repair the Tomas' injury.  However, this process not only repaired his injuries, but increased his endurance, resilience, speed and power to near superhuman levels.  

 

After Caceres death, and his flight from Argentina, he spent time training in Mexico with El Hijo del Santo, the son of the legendary lucha wrestler El Santo.  It was here that he became connected with his Aztec roots, encountering a shaman who, through a ritual involving the malaka root, was able to awaken the young man's connection to the Jaguar-God, Tezcatlipoka.  This awakened spirituality opened Tomas' invigorated his fighting spirit, often warning him of the threat of danger before it occurred allowing himself to prepare for any confrontation, and rarely be taken off guard.

 

History:
 

Tomas was born in Southside General Hospital, October 11th, 1991, to Octavio and Summer Almieda.  His parents were loving, hard working couple, Octavio, Tavi to family and friends, ran an auto shop off of Route 4, west of the Boardwalk, and his mother worked as a Public Support Worker for a home health care firm.  They met as she was providing respite care for Octavio's mother, after her death, the two stayed developed a strong rapport that blossomed into friendship, and finally love.

 

Growing up in the 212, so named for the district's area code, was difficult for Tomas, poverty and street crime were common in public housing.  After a close encounter with gang violence that cost a friend his life, Tomas' grandfather, Javier, introduced him to the Lincoln Youth Center, where he became an athlete and a thrill seeker, continually pushing the envelope, testing his resolve and his capabilities.  Together, grandfather and grandson would watch old Mexican wrestling matches, and then bus to the LYC, where Tomas would learn how to box from Coach Jeffers, while his grandfather watched on with pride.  In time Tomas entered youth boxing, and earned his first win, the roar of the crowd, his grandfather's voice louder than the rest, was the best sound in his life.

 

He was approached by Caceres, a promoter and retired wrestler, from Technicos Revolucha Promotions, a popular underground circuit with it's origins in Freedom City's Southside.  Remembering his grandfather's passion for the masked Mexican wrestlers, he agreed to Caceres offer, and began training in Muay Thai, Jiu-jitsu, and a variety of other grappling styles for his foray into the world of lucha libre, or free fighting.  Debuting as the Jaguar, during his late teens, his acrobatic style, technical skills, and his focused determination soon won the respect of the fans, promoters, and even the other luchadores.  After almost two years chasing the campeonato, or championship, he had established a strong reputation as a technicos, technical fighter, on who respected the rules, and the spirit of the competition, refusing to take advantage of his opponents if distracted or injured.  

 

For the first time, his grandfather and his father, were in attendance for his match against the TRP campeon, Isidro Caro, the Hunter, another technicos like Jaguar.  The pair approached the young man before the match, and Javier, his grandfather encouraged him to be like his namesake, fearless.  At the height of their match, as the two athletes gave the best performance of their careers, Javier, Tomas' grandfather collapsed clutching his chest.  Distracted, Tomas ran into the crowd, when a virtual unknown, with a desire to make a name for himself ambushed the challenger.  Victor Raze, a swole, heavyweight bruiser, went off script and erupted from the crowd, devastating the fatigued Jaguar, he proceeded to punish the wounded challenger with a chair, before driving him through the announce table, and then repeatedly bombing the young man into a ring post.  Tomas, suffering from severe neck and back fractures was rushed to the hospital, losing sight of his grandfather and his father in the chaos of the crowd.

 

Tomas spent more than thirteen hours on the operating table, he didn't find out his grandfather passed until he woke from surgery the following day. Caceres informed him of Javier's passing, and encouraged the young man to take the time he needed.  The surgeon soon entered the room, and informed Tomas that the procedure had been long, and complicated, but they had managed to bring him back from life threatening injuries, however he would never walk again.  On top of this, he soon discovered that his father blamed Tomas for Javier's death, and he would not visit his son during his recovery.

 

With painful rift between him and his family, Tomas threw himself into recovery, however he could only force his body so far before he collapsed and in the end it was Caceres who approached him with a solution.  He had extended inquires through the various criminal networks he was connected to, and discovered the existence of a specialized clinic in Argentina, that claimed to be able to rehabilitate injuries such as Tomas'.  Drawing on his personal resources, and calling in all the debts he could, he arranged for the two of them to travel to the Asclepian clinic.  Through a series of biochemical treatments, including accelerated steroid growth, that were then activated by irradiating the tissue, the clinic was able to accelerate nerve, tissue, and marrow growth.  Within weeks, the spinal damage had been repaired allowing Tomas to have use of his legs for the first time in months.  As the procedure continue, Tomas was introduced to his benefactor, a Central American businessman,
