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 has 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 2. The two of them shared a house on the outskirts of the Hellmouth. They were lauded^{by 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 are fervent in their belief that Delacruz is, in fact, the hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams.

After Alternate Reality

The version of Igneus Delacruz who appeared from the alternate reality swap insists 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 are a common sight driving around Hellmouth in a barbie car. Their antics are famous, and the corresponding exasperation of Sanders is 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 Seattle Garages lineup player Howell Franklin, rumors have circulated that they have entered into a relationship.

Many fans are fervent in their belief that Iggy Delacruz is, in fact, the second hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams. The title of the hottest member of the Hellmouth Sunbeams has gone to Kaj Statter Jr.

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 9 once again decimated both xir batting ability and xir confidence.

During the Season 10 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 11, helping secure the championship win for the Sunbeams.

While playing a game against the Miami Dale on Day 52 of Season 12, 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 assume that Delacruz’s iconic flaming blue head is xir adaptation, but when asked xe insists that’s just how xe is.
• Delacruz’s low baserunning stars are sometimes explained by the fact that shi insists on playing many games in heels.
• Delacruz has never once been spotted dressed appropriately for the weather and is constantly cold, despite zes head being on fire.
• Delacruz owns a pair of "Hellmouth Community College” booty shorts as well as every available pair of booty shorts for all internet league blaseball teams.
• Delacruz is 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 are 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 is notorious for shredding any paper xe can when xe has 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, have become a figure skating duo since their experience on Atlético Latte in the Coffee Cup. Despite being both rivals and best friends their justification is 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 understands what this means, but they’re not great at ice skating.
