Jaguar (Series)

Jaguar is an original series by Jacques Worther.

Premise
While visiting a temple in Belize, Harry's parents are gunned down by militia soldiers, but is saved by a Jaguar. Eight years later, he returns home, having learnt about the mystic arts, and with the power to turn into a Jaguar. He decides to do some good, and becomes a vigilante in his home city of Nemshire, and meets some interesting people along the way.

Main Characters

 * Harry Rayen (Jaguar): The main character, the vigilante 'Jaguar'. His parents were killed on a trip to South America when Harry was 14, leaving him stranded there, where he was taken in by a Nagual and trained in the mystic arts.
 * Carson Eads: A 'military development specialist', who Harry is blackmailing into creating the armour and equipment for his Jaguar double life.
 * Alex Fortier: One of Harry's oldest friends, she was one of the few who believed he hadn't died, although now that he's back sometimes wishes he had. She's a police officer.
 * Victoria Monday: Alex's partner in the police force. She's not as good a detective as Alex, but she makes up for that in her ability to capture the bad guys.
 * Vince Rayen: Harry's younger brother. He was 8 when the rest of the family went to South America, and so his parents felt he was too young, which unknowingly saved his life and sanity.

Supporting Characters

 * Dubhan McGuire: An Irishman with a heartwarming accent, but a heart as cold as ice. He's a Reaper, an embodiment of the spirits of death and darkness.
 * Lincoln Douglas: Vince's best friend. He's your typical white boy douche teenager, except he uses it as a cover for his insecurities, and is actually a decent, if flawed, person.
 * Cezar Ochao: A Nagual, who taught Harry all about the mystic arts and how to transform into a jaguar form.
 * Jess Tratten: A vigilante who appeared not long after the Jaguar. Unlike the Jaguar, she doesn't have any supernatural abilities, and fights with pure skill alone.
 * Mason Morningstar: A powerful warlock who lives on the outskirts of Nemshire with his twin sister, Georgie. He has a lot of secrets, some of which he has sworn to never reveal. Harry has a way of extracting those secrets.
 * Georgie Morningstar: Unlike her twin brother, Georgie has accepted their family's less-than-sparkling history, and utilises dark magic. She's still a good person at heart, just a little twisted. She's also not very good at magic.
 * Ciar Blake: A friend of Harry's, who he met during his 8 years stuck in South America. He was a Nagual, with a Jaguar form, but has lost his connection to that form.
 * Charlie Regan: A friend of Victoria's who feeds her information about the goings on in the streets of Nemshire. She has a thing for Mason's mysterious, gentlemanly charm.

Antagonists

 * The Panther: A Were-Panther who considers himself the 'Guardian of the Supernatural', and makes sure that his vision of the supernatural world is maintained.
 * Melissa Jordan: A witch, who has a vendetta against the Morningstar family. She doesn't differentiate between the bad family members and the good ones.
 * Adam Morgan: A druid who believes that all shapeshifters, be they Nagual, Lycan or whatever, are an abomination, and has dedicated his life to hunting them.
 * Callaghan: Dubhan's arch rival, who had him murdered
 * Hart: A bounty hunter hired to kill the Jaguar vigilante, and suffers for it.

Other Characters

 * Elena Cameron: One of the few Lycans living in the Blackridge area. She is one of the oldest lycans alive, and one of the original survivors of the Beast of Gévaudan.
 * Raz: The Head Librarian of the Nemshire City Library, who knows about the supernatural world. More than any human should know.

Trivia

 * The Jaguar Universe was originally going to be just articles on characters, but the more work I put into it the more I fell in love with the characters and the universe I created, and a TV-style series began to form in my head. So here it is.
