Such people generally change in their mid-teens, and are brought into one of the region’s half-dozen prides. However, Ishelle’s blessings are more likely to manifest in children of a female Enfant and more likely to manifest in the children of a practitioner, so that on the occasions that a sorcerer of Eva’s strength has had children, they have invariably bred true.

When the bulk of her tribe was slain, turned or enslaved by the Red Court, she crossed the Obsidian Mirror into the Nevernever and, after a trying quest, fought her way to the demesne of the true Ix Chel, the man-eating Maya jaguar goddess of childbirth and war.

Over the course of several decades, the Church and the Red Court successfully turned most of the descendants of the Maya who once sought the aid of the jaguar-folk against them, and the bulk of Itzel’s bloodline was exterminated. Most of those who remained fled further inland. On the rare occasions that a child of the jaguar is born in the Yucatan today, it is generally found and made into a pet by the Red Court.	+	The Red King takes the long view in conflicts and, by the late 17th century, the Court had ceased fighting the church and had successfully co-opted large portions of its bureaucracy.
