Sinaa
The feline ancestor of the Juruna, a tribe living along the Xingu River in Brazil. Sinaa is the offspring of an enormous jaguar and a woman, and both father and son have eyes set in the back of their heads. Each time Sinaa grows old, he takes a bath, pulling his skin off over his head and thus becoming young again.
