Ikicha

Brother Ikicha

Cookbook author of the 11th Edition, quoted for the line about the burning Yenk embracing their enemies.

Story so far

Ikicha wrote in the 11th Edition of the Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook, and Drakea calls him "our brother" when quoting him to comfort Justice Light in the 22nd Edition. The quoted line is, "The burning Yenk needs only to embrace their enemies," offered as an argument that a crawler should not shy from the violent thing the dungeon has made of them but instead turn it back on those who forged it.
