Chanil Oxnah (cha-NEEL oash-nah)

A Resident

Chanil Oxnah (a.k.a. Tzekel)

Chanil is a Nahual, a shape-shifter who can transform into a majestic jaguar, embodying the sacred connection between the spirit world and the physical realm. Raised with reverence for Mayan traditions, Chanil embraced the role of a spiritual guide, dedicating his life to maintaining the sacred rhythms of nature and the cosmos. His deep understanding of celestial cycles and rituals makes him a revered priest among his people, though his presence remains humble and approachable. His ever-changing appearance, with hair and tattoos that shift colors according to his mood and intent, reflects his fluid nature and strong bond with the mystical forces around him. In his priestly role, Chanil leads others in ceremonies of renewal and transformation, offering wisdom rooted in the ancient traditions of his ancestors. He’s not one for grand speeches, preferring instead to convey his teachings through action and gentle guidance. His connection with nature allows him to be a conduit for harmony, helping those around him align their lives with the greater cycles of life. Whether in human form or as a jaguar, his calm and compassionate spirit draws people to him, seeking counsel or simply basking in the tranquility he brings. Chanil is has become facinated with Mortal Realm magic and slight of hand and is always trying out new tricks (without the aid of magic). Lately he is usually working on the mechanics of "escape".
