“Jacob Lash is an asshole.— A FATE'S TALE
Lash is a champion of the Bear Pit, an underground arena of blood sport where spectators gamble on matches. Bebop is another known pit fighter and Lash’s titular rival. Lash mocks Wraith for betting on Bebop, and Wraith teases Lash because he lost to Bebop "one time".[1][2] Wraith heard from Mendoza that Lash was going to "take a dive" in a fight. Instead, Lash won the fight, resulting in Wraith losing "a lot" of money.[3][4]
Lash is speculated to have a sailor background, given his anchor and the various ornaments that he wears. However, instead of a traditional nautical sailor, he more likely was an aeronaut, a sailor of the skies. Air travel is commonly done by airships that use zephyrs, or wind spirits, for air travel.[5] On Lash’s left arm, he adorns a ship’s anchor tattoo surrounded by a cloud-like emblem, or possibly a zephyr.[6] Additionally, Lash’s aptitude of air mobility and the ship’s horn sound on his ultimate ability “Death Slam” further imply an aeronaut background. Mo & Krill call Lash a “stevedore”,[7] a worker that unloads cargo from ships, suggesting that Lash could be a dockworker or a ship rigger that helps in the smuggling business.
