character

Chaco

Chaco kills the contained goddess Dodola after Odette breaks her illegal bargain with Huanxin.

Story so far

During Mordecai's eleventh-floor crawl, Odette abandons the game-rigging arrangement she made with Huanxin. The party instead traps Huanxin's goddess Dodola inside a containment.

Chaco delivers the kill, knocking Huanxin out of the Celestial Ascendency before the competition officially starts. Mordecai advances but Uzzi dies.

Centuries later, Odette says she has established a trust for Chaco along with Mordecai and several other former clients still trapped in the system.

Appearance

A crawler striking a trapped goddess inside a glowing divine containment field.
