Chianti of Skotadi

Chianti

HEIGHT: 2.8 ft
WEIGHT: 280 lbs
VOICE OVER: Zoe Saldana
ONE LINE DESCRIPTION: a large female jaguar with blue eyes

Chianti is rather large for her size, given that both of her parents were big. Underneath her tanned, spotted coat are her muscles. There isn't much fat on her. This jaguar is more close to the stocky side than slender. Her light blue eyes stand out from her body. 



Chianti is rather unique in her own way. She isn't exactly shy, but she isn't "out there" either. The jaguar is in the happy medium. She is fine being alone, but likes being social as well. The big cat is quite sassy and witty, which makes it very easy to give retorts or comments like rapid fire. She thinks quickly on her paws and doesn't hesitate to speak her opinion. Whether it was asked or not. While she doesn't often try to hurt others, they may find that aspect of her annoying. Does she care? Not really. Another thing about her is that she is confident and fierce. If someone doesn't like her, then she could care less. She would be herself nobody what anyone says. Queen? Kind? Duchess? This feline doesn't care. In her mind, she would rather stay true to herself than to change her self and be unhappy. 

While Chianti likes to be playful, sassy, and tease others, she is constantly observing individuals. Socializing or just watching from the shadows. She stores pieces of info in case it is useful for her later. This clever kitty can be manipulative at times. Especially if there is something she wants. However, she prefers to work alone. With her background in fighting, she enjoys using it on others from time to time. 

This feline is quite feisty. When someone gets on her nerves, she prefers to use her words. But she may also swat at them if they are too close to her during a confrontation. She is not afraid of getting into fights with anyone. Not even with those that are larger than her as she believes skills speak louder. 

Chianti can be one of the best friends to have. She is definitely a ride or die cat. Someone who is very dear to her won't have to worry about her loyalty. There would be times that she would defend the individual, even though they are in the wrong. That usually happens if she witnesses that same individual sticking their neck for her. One of the instances she would switch over to someone's side is when she realizes that they don't care about her or betray her. Like she can be a very loyal friend, she is a formidable enemy. She would fight to her last breath to defeat someone who hurt someone she loves and cares about. 

When this she cat attaches to someone, she would develop jealous tendencies. Especially when it comes to a love interest. She doesn't enjoy sharing her special someone with others that aren't already her friends. But even then, the relationship between her and those friends may decline if they show interest into the individual as well. Her actions may either be subtle or very obvious depending on how much she likes the "competitor".

Chianti's past was rather... simple. She was born in the outlands with no siblings. Her father wasn't present at any point of her life. It was just her and her mother. She learned both hunting, fighting, and manipulation from her mother. Surprisingly, the two jaguars were not close to each other. In Kianna's mind, she was supposed to prepare her offspring for the real world, let them go, and find another mate.  Therefore, her mother didn't want to get too close to her daughter. Two and a half years, Chianti was booted away for good. It took her about a month to find the Skotadi dynasty and finally call some place home.
