Lash is a Hero in Deadlock. He is a brutal bruiser of a Hero, eagerly initiating fights and chasing down fleeing opponents. He leaps into combat with his Grappling hook, Flogging his foes with a life-stealing whip and stomping the ground with a Ground Strike that damages multiple targets. If the enemy team groups up, Lash can pick them all up at once and Death Slam them into the ground.
A champion of an underground fighting arena, Lash has built a reputation as a tough and unsavoury character.

“Jacob Lash is an asshole.
Lash's wish and motives in the ritual are currently unknown. He does, however, know exactly what he wants from the Patrons.[2]
Lash is a champion of the Bear Pit, an underground arena of blood sport where spectators gamble on matches.[3][4]
Lash refers to himself as "The Lash".[5][6] He also calls himself "The God of Combat" and "God's gift to Combat". [7][8]
Lash donates 3% of his earnings to his charity called "Lash-Back", dedicated to children "that kind of suck".[9]
Lash likes to drink mimosas,[10] a cocktail made with chilled sparkling wine and orange juice. He has an open tab at Jezebel's.[11]
Lash is implied to be a sailor, due to the equipment on his model, his anchor tattoos, Death Slam's ship horn sound effects, and other characters referring to him as a "stevedore".[12][13][14] Instead of a traditional nautical sailor, Lash is more likely an airship worker (in Deadlock, airships powered by zephyrs were used instead of airplanes),[15] based on Lash's ability kit encouraging air mobility and Lash's old model having zephyr tattoos.[16]
Bebop have a rivalry fueled by hate for each other.[17][18][19] Lash used to use an uppercut instead of Ground Strike, but refused to use it ever again after seeing Bebop use an uppercut.[20][21] Bebop has beaten Lash in the Bear Pit once,[22] and Lash has beaten Bebop at least once afterwards.[23][24] Neither Bebop nor Lash elaborate on why they hate the other so much.[25][26]
Wraith for betting on Bebop,[28] and Wraith teases Lash because he lost to Bebop "one time".[22]
Haze, 
Holliday, 
Lady Geist, and 
McGinnis.[29]
Ivy for her war against Mendoza.[30][31]
Vyper's obsession with him and wants her to leave him alone.[32][33][34]
Celeste's friend Lenny in the Bear Pit.[35]Wraith to bet money on Lash throwing a pit fight, which Lash proceeded to win.[36] The only person Mendoza hates more than Lash is Ivy.[30] In Ivy's Visual Novel, Mendoza sent some goons to beat up Lash.[37]Vyper loves Lash and is obsessed with him.[38][39][40] She has watched him sleep (without his knowledge)[41] and sends Lash letters made to "stand out" (the contents of the letters are unknown, but they do make Lash uncomfortable).[42][43] When Vyper flirts with 
Billy, she asks if she can call him "Lash".[44]
Seven believes Lash's ego is almost as big as 
Kelvin's.[45]Billy,[46] Kelvin,[47] Lady Geist[48] and 
Venator[49] compliment Lash's moustache. Billy also says Lash is "chiseled like a Greek god".[46]
Abrams,[51] Ivy,[52] 
Krill,[53] McGinnis,[54] 
Victor,[55] 
Warden,[56] Wraith[57] and 
Yamato[58] call Lash an "asshole".As an asshole, Lash has a lot of nicknames for the other heroes in the game. Some of these nicknames include:
Abrams: Bluey,[59] Blue boy.[60]
Drifter: Mobo.[61]
Dynamo: Domehead.[62]
Grey Talon: Grandpa.[63]Haze: Smoke Show.[64]
Infernus: Matchstick.[65]Ivy: Sweet Wings.[66]Lady Geist: Green-armed Sally,[67] Sally Succubus,[68] Grandma.[69]McGinnis: McG.[70]
Paradox: Little Miss Fishbowl Head.[71]Seven: Glowstick.[72]
