Yea, and Kanima are jaguars *eyeroll* Jeff does whatever the hell he wants. Just because traditionally they're only female, doesn't mean that's what the show will stick with.

I agree with WolfPack69, whatever he is, I don't know that he knows he is whatever he is.

I think he might be a type of fae, or fairy. There are all sorts of different types. Banshees are even traditionally a type of fairy. I highly doubt he'll turn out to be a Banshee. I'm Irish, I speak the language fairly well and Banshee comes from the old Irish for fairy /woman/ (bean sídhe). He may turn out to be a banshee, but the term would have to be changed to fear sidhe, meaning fairy man.

I actually don't even care if he does turn out to be a banshee, but I'd prefer if they continued to do what they've always done and that is bring new perspectives to and reimagine little known supernatural creatures. 3A was /full/ of Irish myth (druids, banshee, daruch etc), I'd love to see the show bring a few more to life.
