Appearance

Edric Tosser is 5’1”.

Early Life

Supposedly hailing from the part of Chicago sometimes called Joliet, Tosser was born to Cantonese and Jewish parents. He is reported to have had one older sister and three younger sisters. Tosser has described his family in interviews lovingly, if minimally.

One of the few topics Tosser has been open to the press about in regards to his upbringing is his history as a dancer, taking up ballet from a young age. Some news outlets report that they possess an “eight foot vertical leap,” though this has never been corroborated with photo evidence.

Tosser was purportedly recruited to the Deerfield Firestarters prior to Season 1 due to their intrinsic understanding of the nature of fire. As a member of the Firestarters, Tosser was both a salaried Blaseball player and arsonist, and apparently played as a pitcher. However, as with many of the claims they have made about their time with the Firestarters, this remains unsubstantiated.

Alternation

During the Season 4 Election, Tosser was subject to the Alternate decree, replacing the Edric Tosser of IF/818.36. Tosser initially struggled acclimating to the Firefighters, but grew to become part of the team, despite some challenges and a tendency towards pyromania. Encouraged by his teammates, he ended up becoming an excellent firefighter.  

Career

Tosser was greeted with high expectations going into the Firefighters’ fourth postseason appearance. After being reverbed into the pitching rotation on Season 5 Day 30, Tosser was bombarded with media attention thanks to pre-alternation Edric Tosser’s prophesied legendary pitching ability. Tosser then proceeded to pitch one of the worst games in Chicago Firefighters history, giving up 12 runs to the Jazz Hands.

Despite the slow start, Tosser quickly became a fan favorite due to their “infectious energy” and “high spirits.”

Like all of us, they are from Chicago. Their jersey number is 815.
