Chantico is a Scorbunny Cheerleader, I would maybe make her a Valor Bard as she can inspire courage in those she supports, but also can support her team by getting up front with the enemy team and kicking them in the face with spectacularly flashy moves and bursts of light and fire!
The name Chantico comes from the name of an Aztec Fire Deity who could be considered the Mexican version of Hestia as Goddess of the Hearth and Home, which fits with a Cheerleader being one who supports the Home Team.
In Aztec Mythology there is a group called the 400 Divine Drunk Rabbits, children of the Goddess of Alcohol Mayahuel and the God of Medicine Petecatl who must have gotten on much like Rabbits to have 400 children. These Rabbits show up for celebrations for...what else but to get drunk and party hard!
There is also an Aztec Ball-game which is very similar to Soccer where they would either wrap a stone or a human skull in Rubber and were not allowed to use their hands or feet to hit it around but had to use other parts of their body like their elbows, knees, shoulders, and hips to knock the ball through a hoop suspended off the ground. Symbolically the Ball is meant to represent the Sun and the two ends of the court are meant to represent the two ends of the Horizon (Sunrise and Sunset)
What was Cinderace's signature move again...? Pyro Ball has Cinderace kick a pebble around then it gets surrounded in fire and turns into a Fireball. Then in Cinderace's Gigantamax form they stand atop a Gigantic ball of Fire with a FACE in it...much like how the ball they used may either have a stone or a Skull in it though the Skull was mainly saved for special occasions and certain ceremonial games.
Aside from the ritual Sacrifice, Modern Soccer and the Aztec Ball game seem like they have a lot in common between having rules around not touching the ball with certain parts of your body, and having very enthusiastic drunken fans. Boom, FULL CIRCLE!
