== Background == {{Quotation|| '''A FATE'S TALE:''' Jacob Lash is an asshole.}} Lash is speculated to have a sailor background given the various ornaments and ship’s anchor that he wears. However, it is most likely not a traditional nautical sailor, but an aeronaut, a sailor of the skies. Statements from ''Deadlock'' developer ''Yoshi'' indicate that no airplanes exist in the Deadlock world.<ref>[[:File:Yoshi Lore Hint from Discord.jpg|@yoshideadlock's Discord message]] about how airplanes aren't a real thing in the Deadlock world and people use wind spirit-powered airships instead.</ref> Instead, airships use zephyrs, or wind spirits, for air travel. On Lash’s left arm, he adorns a ship’s anchor tattoo surrounded by a cloud-like emblem, or possibly a zephyr.<ref>[[:File:Discord @Willkels- Connection Between Lash Tattoo and Zephyr.jpg|@willkels's Discord message]] about the connection between Lash's shoulder tattoo and Zephyrs.</ref> Additionally, Lash’s aptitude of air mobility and the ship’s horn sound on his ultimate ability “Death Slam” further imply an aeronaut background. Voice lines from [[Mo & Krill]] call Lash a “stevedore”, a person that helps unloads cargo from ships, which suggest that Lash could be a dockworker or a ship rigger that helps in the smuggling business. Past the shipping background, Lash is a champion of the [[Bear Pit]], an underground arena of blood sport where spectators can gamble on matches. [[Bebop]] is another known pit fighter who is often referred to as Lash’s titular rival. Lash makes a few remarks to [[Wraith]], leader of New York’s gambling syndicate, mocking her for betting on Bebop.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|hero=Lash|file=Lash match start lash wraith convo02 01.mp3|transcription=So, you're the lady who bets on Bebop?}}</ref><ref>{{VoiceLineCite|hero=Lash|file=Lash kill wraith 02.mp3|transcription=Backed the wrong horse, Wraith... Like always.}}</ref> Lash also taunts [[Kali]], a former [[Bear Pit]] competitor, for coming out of retirement only to go back to a 2 decade hiatus after losing to Bebop.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|hero=Lash|file=Lash kill kali 01.mp3|transcription=Not gonna dunk on you, Kali. You were a hell of a fighter before you retired. Lived in obscurity, came out of retirement in a desperate bid for relevancy, only to get injured by Bebop. Ouch! And put on a shelf for the better part of two decades. Uhf.}}</ref> Despite a rambunctious persona, Lash states he donates 3% of his income to his own charity ''Lash-Back'' for children who suck.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|hero=Lash|file=Lash select 13 charity.mp3|transcription=You know it's important to give back. That's why I'm taking three percent of my earnings a day and donating them to Lash Back. It's my charity dedicated to children who kinda suck.}}</ref>
