An editorial guide to Lash's background, motive for entering the Ritual, and possible wish from a Patron.
Who is Lash?
Jacob Lash is an asshole.
Lash enters a Ritual in which six heroes aid a Patron against its rival. Victory matters beyond the match: the successful Patron can offer each ally a wish, turning every combatant's private motive into part of the city's larger occult crisis.
What would Lash wish for?

Not yet confirmed. Deadlock remains in development, so Lock Lab separates explicit canon from dialogue-based implication and editorial interpretation.Lock Lab reading
Lash's story connects a personal problem to the larger struggle over the Amber Hand and Sapphire Flame.

The Patron bargain makes this motive important: a wish is not simply a reward, but a test of what Lash values and what price they may accept when an elder power controls the terms.
