Jarrod
Biography
Survival during the Fog Wave
Jarrod invited Delia to abandon her God-level companions and join him and Garlan, assuming the weaker travelers would be liabilities. When an amethyst beast pursued the pair, Jarrod repeatedly shielded Garlan, lost and regenerated an arm, and considered sacrificing a divine clone. They drew the beast toward Linley's group for help, then acknowledged their selfishness after Linley and Bebe drove it away and joined the larger party during the Fog Wave. (Chapters 514–515, 517–520)
