Izzi was five years old when she arrived at Blackcliff Academy with Cook. Her missing eye is the result of Cook's attempt to poison the Commandant, who took Izzi's eye rather than punishing Cook. Cook has taken care of Izzi ever since.

An Ember In The Ashes[]

Izzi befriends Laia against Cook's wishes and soon figures out that Laia is a spy for the Resistance. After Izzi decides to help Laia, giving what information she knows, the two of them sneak out of Blackcliff to go to the Moon Festival in Serra. At the Festival there is a raid, from which she escapes with Laia and Elias Veturius by going through the catacombs. Later on, she helps Laia search for a secret entrance to Blackcilff for the Resistance. They find one but are caught by Marcus and Zak Farrar. Laia sends Izzi to escape from slavery with Keenan in her place.

A Torch Against The Night[]

Izzi and Keenan have been tailing Elias and Laia. They eventually catch up to them and tell them that they are going to help them break into Kauf Prison to save Darin. Izzi notices Elias is unwell, but Laia denies it because she had promised Elias to keep his condition a secret. While the four of them are traveling to Nur, a sandstorm hits, injuring Izzi's remaining eye. When she is in the caravan traveling to Kauf, Gibran Ara-Nur develops a crush on her. However, when the caravan is searched for Scholars, Izzi is found and killed. Elias helps her spirit cross over into the afterlife.

The two began working together to help the Resistance. When Laia had to choose between going with Keenan or saving Elias, she gave her space on the boat that was going to take her to Keenan to Izzi. Izzi and Laia reunite and they remain close friends until Izzi is killed.

Cook[]

Izzi and Cook have a special relationship. When Izzi arrived at Blackcliff, Cook took care of her. The Commandant learned about their friendship and manipulated it to her means, punishing Izzi instead when Cook offended her. Izzi died before she could tell Cook how the latter meant to her.
