Hypothetically born on August 19th, year unknown, Delacruz claims to have been on the team before the change in location, though none of the other players can remember what form they took back on the surface. At the same time, everyone remembers.
+
Hypothetically born on August 19th, year unknown, Igneus Delacruz claimed to have been with the Sunbeams since {{BetaSeason|1| the Return of Blaseball}}, though {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|and|and|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} teammates have a hard time recalling details of {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} life before the [[Hellmouth]] swallowed {{Fog|Moab}}.
 +
 
 +
Delacruz had a degree in Wildlife Management from [[Hellmouth Community College]]. {{RandomPronoun|upper|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} education came in handy when a [[wolf]] got loose in the locker room snack area. The [[Wolf Snack Incident (Incident)|Wolf Snack Incident]] ended when Delacruz befriended the wolf, and subsequently ate it. Of the event, Delacruz said that {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|would|would|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} not have eaten the wolf if only it hadn't eaten all of the Lemon Cake Batter protein bars.
 +
 
 +
During the early seasons of {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} career, Delacruz was seen spending a lot of time in {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} teammate [[Malik Romayne]]’s restaurant, Romayne's Romaine. They were married during a game in [[The Hotdogfingers Memorial Climate Pledge Garage and Parking Facility]] on Day 47 of {{BetaSeason|2}}. The two of them shared a house on the outskirts of the [[Hellmouth]]. They were lauded[[by who?|<sup>by who?</sup>]] as an example of a successful relationship between blaseball players.
 +
 
 +
Delacruz was known for {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} flashy way of fielding ground balls, which involved an ember-style summoning rune burned into the palm of {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} blaseball glove. While this technique achieved little success their first season, Delacruz’s performance dramatically improved without precedent {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} second season. Delacruz was known for {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} skills as a dangerous and sly outfielder, able to play either left or right field, but never, ever center.
 +
 
 +
Many fans were fervent in their belief that Delacruz was, in fact, the hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams.
 +
 
 +
==After Alternate Reality==
 +
The version of Igneus Delacruz who appeared from the alternate reality swap ''insisted'' on being referred to as "Iggy." Little is known about the universe {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|swapped|swapped|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} from, although there are reports that {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|was|were|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} confused when {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|found|found|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} {{RandomPronoun|lower|reflexive|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} no longer playing in Moab. Iggy Delacruz filled the role of {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} predecessor in many ways, and a variety of similarities were found between the two, including {{RandomPronoun|lower|object|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} having {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} own version of the [[Wolf Snack Incident (Incident)|Wolf Snack Incident]].  
  
−
The version of Igneus Delacruz who appeared from the alternate reality swap goes by "Iggy," and comes from an alternate universe where there was never a Moab desert. Though, come to think of it, no one can quite remember a Moab desert in our universe either.  
+
===Personal Life===
 +
Initially, Delacruz continued {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} counterpart’s relationship with Romayne. The gradual breakdown of this relationship due to the stress of alternating lead to the now-former teammates quietly ending their romantic relationship just prior to Romayne's feedback to the [[Houston Spies]].
 +
Despite difficulties in Delacruz's adjustment to {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} role as an alternate, {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|has|have|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} developed close relationships with teammates [[Miguel James]] and [[Zack Sanders]]. Delacruz and James were a common sight driving around Hellmouth in a barbie car. Their antics were famous, and the corresponding exasperation of Sanders was nearly as well known.  
  
−
During [[Season 2]], on day 47, teammates [[Malik Romayne]] and Delacruz were married during a game.
+
The Grand Siesta gave Delacruz an opportunity to distinguish herself from {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} predecessor. {{RandomPronoun|upper|subject|was|were|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} seen out with a variety of players from around the [[ILB]], and was quoted as saying that {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|was|were|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} "ready to date again". Delacruz also joined Miguel James and [[Sigmund Castillo]] in spending time with [[The Smokehouse Gang]]. Towards the end of the siesta, {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|was|were|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} often spotted with then-[[Charleston Shoe Thieves]] lineup player [[Howell Franklin]], rumors having circulated that they have entered into a relationship.
  
−
Prior to Romayne's transfer to the Spies, the now-former teammates quietly ended their romantic relationship. Rumour has it the two still talk regularly, but neither will comment on it when questioned.
+
Many fans were fervent in their belief that Iggy Delacruz was, in fact, the second hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams. The title of the hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams had gone to <choose uncached=""><option>[[Richmond Harrison]].</option><option>[[Paula Reddick]].</option><option>[[Kaj Statter Jr.]]</option><option>[[Hendricks Richardson]].</option><option>[[Joe Voorhees]].</option><option>[[Eugenia Bickle]].</option><option>[[Hahn Fox]].</option><option>[[Lars Taylor]].</option><option>Miguel James</option><option>[[Sandoval Crossing]].</option><option>[[Jayden Wright]].</option><option>Zack Sanders.</option></choose>

Many fans are fervent in their belief that Delacruz is, in fact, the hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams.
+
===Career===
 +
Delacruz was surprised to discover that Igneus had been a Sunbeams captain before the Alternate Reality swap, and chose not to take on that role due to insecurities due to {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} lower star count in comparison. After gradually increasing {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} batting ability over seasons of practice, {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} allergic reaction in {{BetaSeason|9}} once again decimated both {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} batting ability and {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} confidence.  
  
−
===Education===
+
During the {{BetaSeason|10#Election Results|@ elections}}, Delacruz was cured of {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} peanut allergy due to the {{BetaSeason|10#Blessings|Nut Button}} blessing. This was followed by Delacruz valiantly failing to steal second base to prevent a loop in the final game of {{BetaSeason|11}}, helping secure the championship win for the Sunbeams.  
−
Delacruz majored in Wildlife Management at Hellmouth Community College. His education came in handy when a [[wolf]] got loose in the locker room snack area. The [[Wolf Snack Incident]] ended when Delacruz befriended the wolf, and subsequently ate it. Of the event, Delacruz said that they would not have eaten the wolf if only it hadn't eaten all of the Lemon Cake Batter protein bars. They have been known to wear booty shorts with the words "Hellmouth Community College" on the back.
 
  
−
==Career==
+
While playing a game against the [[Miami Dale]] on Day 52 of {{BetaSeason|12}}, Delacruz baffled league officials by forcing teammate [[Nerd Pacheco]] to run around {{RandomPronoun|lower|object|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} while {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|stayed|stayed|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} on third base in the 5th inning, resulting in Pacheco getting a run on [[Hahn Fox]]’s sac bunt. Iggy was quoted saying ''“You have legs Pacheco, don't you? Go around me,”'' in response to being yelled at by Pacheco to run home.
−
Delacruz is known for their flashy way of fielding ground balls, which involves an ember-style summoning rune burned into the palm of their blaseball talon. They achieved little success in the Moab, but since the descent into the Hellmouth their play has improved. Delacruz is a dangerous and sly outfielder, able to play either left or right field, but never, ever center.
 
  
−
In Delacruz's second or third or fourth season with the Sunbeams they began to struggle with one of their throwing arms. As it is impossible to know when Delacruz started playing blaseball (or even when the sport even came into existence), the exact date of her shoulder surgery cannot be pinpointed. All that is known is that their lower left (or right, that arm seems to shift positions in unfathomable ways) was repaired with a combination of arcane magicks and the surgical talents of a very famous and very suspicious sports doctor.
+
==Trivia==
  
−
During spring training for the "first" season, Delacruz spent time under the tutelage of legendary batting coach [[Determination Montgomery]]. With this help, Delacruz was able to bring their pre-season post-batting mid-average up from -.120 to a cool .237. [[The Hellmouth Tribune]] reported that Montgomery was so moved by the effort Delacruz put forth that they gave Delacruz a half-star from their own rating.
+
*Many people assumed that Delacruz’s iconic flaming blue head was {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} adaptation, but when asked {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|insisted|insist|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} that’s just how {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|is|are|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}}.
 +
*Delacruz’s low baserunning stars were sometimes explained by the fact that {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|insisted|insist|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} on playing many games in heels.
 +
*Delacruz had never once been spotted dressed appropriately for the weather and was constantly cold, despite {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} head being on fire.
 +
*Delacruz owned a pair of "Hellmouth Community College” booty shorts as well as [https://www.blaseballcares.com/collections/all/type_shorts?page=1 every available pair] of booty shorts for all internet league blaseball teams.
 +
*Delacruz was famous as the inventor of the world’s most popular fire hair dye, a variety of minerals which can create colours and effects when applied to fire. They were an integral part of her home run celebration routine.
 +
*Delacruz considers seemingly any sequel movie to be {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} favorite even if and in spite of popular opinion stating that the films should have never been made in the first place.
 +
*Delacruz was notorious for shredding any paper {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|could|can|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} when {{RandomPronoun|lower|subject|had|have|save=true|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} access to a shredding machine. In order to avoid the loss of important documents, letters, or photos, shredding machines are now banned from the [[Solarium]].
 +
*Delacruz and {{RandomPronoun|lower|possessive|table={{UserWiki:Lonestarlars/pronountableIggy}}}} teammate, [[Zack Sanders]], had become a figure skating duo since their experience on [[Atlético Latte]] in the [[Coffee Cup]]. Despite being both rivals and best friends their justification was that “them hating each other creates off the ice drama they can bring to their on the ice routines or something along those lines.” Nobody fully understood what that meant, but they were not great at ice skating.

On the bench next to them is Miguel James, who is lying on his back, tossing a blaseball into the air with one hand. He's wearing a yellow zip-up jacket, blue jeans, and the same yellow sneakers with suns as Iggy.

Latest revision as of 05:44, 17 January 2023

Igneus Delacruz was a lineup player for the Ohio Worms, and was with the team from Season β17, Day 28 until being incinerated on Season β19, Day 22. Delacruz had previously played for the Hellmouth Sunbeams.

Official League Records

Delacruz joined the ILB as a lineup player for the Moab Sunbeams with the Return of Blaseball.

During the Season β4 elections, Delacruz was affected by the Alternate Reality decree and replaced by an Alternate. This involved Delacruz's stats being randomized, resulting in a combined 10.3 → 8.9 stat decrease.

During the Season β6 elections the Sunbeams received the Move the Mounds Closer blessing and benefited from the Sharing Signs blessing the Boston Flowers received, which boosted Delacruz's batting from 2.0 → 2.4 .

On Season β7, Day 81 Delacruz siphoned some of Unlimited Tacos lineup player Mcdowell Mason's hitting ability in a game with Blooddrain weather, increasing their own ability 2.4 → 3.0 . During the Season β7 elections, the Hellmouth Sunbeams received the Stickum blessing, which boosted Delacruz's defense from 1.0 → 2.0 .[1]

On Season β8, Day 74 Delacruz's pitching ability was siphoned by Unlimited Tacos pitcher Pitching Machine in a game with Blooddrain weather, decreasing it 3.7 → 3.0 .

On Season β9, Day 81 Delacruz swallowed a stray peanut and suffered an allergic reaction, resulting in a combined 10.5 → 4.7 stat decrease. During the Season β9 elections the Sunbeams received the Mutually Arising blessing, resulting in a combined 4.7 → 5.9 stat increase.

On Season β10, Day 82 Delacruz siphoned some of Houston Spies lineup player Theodore Holloway's defense ability in a game with Blooddrain weather, increasing their own ability 0.6 → 1.7 . During the Season β10 elections the Sunbeams benefited from the Sharing Signs blessing the Unlimited Tacos received, which boosted Delacruz's batting 1.8 → 2.5 .

During the Coffee Cup, Delacruz played for Atlético Latte as a lineup player.

On Season β13, Day 56, Delacruz's pitching ability was siphoned by LA Unlimited Tacos lineup player Halexandrey Walton in a game with Blooddrain weather, decreasing it 1.8 → 1.0 . During the Season β13 elections the Sunbeams benefited from all four "Bubble" blessings, which increased Delacruz's batting, baserunning, and defense by 4%. Delacruz also gained the Chunky modification as a result of the Peanut Butter blessing.

On Season β17, Day 28, Delacruz was exchanged to the Ohio Worms due to Feedback. Delacruz was replaced by Kaz Fiasco.

On Season β19, Day 22, Delacruz was incinerated and replaced by Millipede Aqualuft. As a result of their incineration, Thomas Kirby entered the Hades Tigers' Shadows due to the Tigers' Ambush modification.

COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

Personal Life

Hypothetically born on August 19th, year unknown, Igneus Delacruz claimed to have been with the Sunbeams since the Return of Blaseball, though xe and xir teammates have a hard time recalling details of hir life before the Hellmouth swallowed Moab.

Delacruz had a degree in Wildlife Management from Hellmouth Community College. Zes education came in handy when a wolf got loose in the locker room snack area. The Wolf Snack Incident ended when Delacruz befriended the wolf, and subsequently ate it. Of the event, Delacruz said that xe would not have eaten the wolf if only it hadn't eaten all of the Lemon Cake Batter protein bars.

During the early seasons of xir career, Delacruz was seen spending a lot of time in xir teammate Malik Romayne’s restaurant, Romayne's Romaine. They were married during a game in The Hotdogfingers Memorial Climate Pledge Garage and Parking Facility on Day 47 of Season β2. The two of them shared a house on the outskirts of the Hellmouth. They were laudedby who? as an example of a successful relationship between blaseball players.

Delacruz was known for hir flashy way of fielding ground balls, which involved an ember-style summoning rune burned into the palm of zes blaseball glove. While this technique achieved little success their first season, Delacruz’s performance dramatically improved without precedent his second season. Delacruz was known for her skills as a dangerous and sly outfielder, able to play either left or right field, but never, ever center.

Many fans were fervent in their belief that Delacruz was, in fact, the hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams.

After Alternate Reality

The version of Igneus Delacruz who appeared from the alternate reality swap insisted on being referred to as "Iggy." Little is known about the universe xe swapped from, although there are reports that xe was confused when xe found xemself no longer playing in Moab. Iggy Delacruz filled the role of hir predecessor in many ways, and a variety of similarities were found between the two, including zem having his own version of the Wolf Snack Incident.

Personal Life

Initially, Delacruz continued her counterpart’s relationship with Romayne. The gradual breakdown of this relationship due to the stress of alternating lead to the now-former teammates quietly ending their romantic relationship just prior to Romayne's feedback to the Houston Spies. Despite difficulties in Delacruz's adjustment to their role as an alternate, xe has developed close relationships with teammates Miguel James and Zack Sanders. Delacruz and James were a common sight driving around Hellmouth in a barbie car. Their antics were famous, and the corresponding exasperation of Sanders was nearly as well known.

The Grand Siesta gave Delacruz an opportunity to distinguish herself from hir predecessor. Xe was seen out with a variety of players from around the ILB, and was quoted as saying that xe was "ready to date again". Delacruz also joined Miguel James and Sigmund Castillo in spending time with The Smokehouse Gang. Towards the end of the siesta, shi was often spotted with then-Charleston Shoe Thieves lineup player Howell Franklin, rumors having circulated that they have entered into a relationship.

Many fans were fervent in their belief that Iggy Delacruz was, in fact, the second hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams. The title of the hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams had gone to Zack Sanders.

Career

Delacruz was surprised to discover that Igneus had been a Sunbeams captain before the Alternate Reality swap, and chose not to take on that role due to insecurities due to zes lower star count in comparison. After gradually increasing his batting ability over seasons of practice, her allergic reaction in Season β9 once again decimated both xir batting ability and xir confidence.

During the Season β10 elections, Delacruz was cured of hir peanut allergy due to the Nut Button blessing. This was followed by Delacruz valiantly failing to steal second base to prevent a loop in the final game of Season β11, helping secure the championship win for the Sunbeams.

While playing a game against the Miami Dale on Day 52 of Season β12, Delacruz baffled league officials by forcing teammate Nerd Pacheco to run around xem while xe stayed on third base in the 5th inning, resulting in Pacheco getting a run on Hahn Fox’s sac bunt. Iggy was quoted saying “You have legs Pacheco, don't you? Go around me,” in response to being yelled at by Pacheco to run home.

Trivia

  • Many people assumed that Delacruz’s iconic flaming blue head was xir adaptation, but when asked xe insisted that’s just how xe is.
  • Delacruz’s low baserunning stars were sometimes explained by the fact that shi insisted on playing many games in heels.
  • Delacruz had never once been spotted dressed appropriately for the weather and was constantly cold, despite zes head being on fire.
  • Delacruz owned a pair of "Hellmouth Community College” booty shorts as well as every available pair of booty shorts for all internet league blaseball teams.
  • Delacruz was famous as the inventor of the world’s most popular fire hair dye, a variety of minerals which can create colours and effects when applied to fire. They were an integral part of her home run celebration routine.
  • Delacruz considers seemingly any sequel movie to be his favorite even if and in spite of popular opinion stating that the films should have never been made in the first place.
  • Delacruz was notorious for shredding any paper xe could when xe had access to a shredding machine. In order to avoid the loss of important documents, letters, or photos, shredding machines are now banned from the Solarium.
  • Delacruz and hir teammate, Zack Sanders, had become a figure skating duo since their experience on Atlético Latte in the Coffee Cup. Despite being both rivals and best friends their justification was that “them hating each other creates off the ice drama they can bring to their on the ice routines or something along those lines.” Nobody fully understood what that meant, but they were not great at ice skating.
