Profile

Savanna is the current head chef of the Hotel Debord, having succeeded Escoffier 6 months prior to the events of the story after she resigned following a food safety incident and went to the Fortress of Meropide to serve her sentence. Owing to Escoffier's reputation, the Debord's became at risk. Despite her lack of experience, Savanna was able to keep the entire crew together, though some people doubted her skills. As a head chef, Savanna was also entrusted with a copy of the Codex Debord, which contained all of Modeste's recipes.

Monica, another chef at the Hotel Debord, learned of the secret ingredient used in the original Gateau Debord and sought to acquire this ingredient to sell as a military asset. Having pieced together most of the information, Monica needed her hands on the original Codex, which was in Escoffier's possession. In order to lure Escoffier back to the Debord, Monica spiked Savanna with lumiline, a drug created from Lumitoile which was banned after its long-term effects became known. The lumiline amplified Savanna's mental instability and frustration, causing her to only accept the most perfect of food while outright rejecting everything that she didn't like. This also caused her to severely scold the Debord's chefs, making them work long hours and being unsatisfied with most of their food.

At some point, Savanna also threw out Firmin due to his inability to keep up, though neither of them were aware that Monica had also spiked Firmin's tea with lumiline, making him unable to perform prep work. This caused Navia and the Spina di Rosula to intervene in order to negotiate fair compensation for him, though Savanna outright rejected any attempts to talk. She was in the process of throwing out Monica when Paimon unintentionally intervened, and at the end of the day, Monica discreetly told them to look for Escoffier. Escoffier reluctantly decided to return, but became enraged when she saw Savanna's sudden shift in attitude, insisting on a cook-off to settle the dispute. Savanna agreed to the contest, telling Escoffier she wanted her Codex Debord if she won.

During the contest, Savanna ordered Monica to sabotage Escoffier's cakes, resulting in her winning the contest. Upon looking through the codex and being unable to find what she was looking for, she goes into a mental breakdown and passes out, recovering shortly afterwards. Suddenly realizing that Monica had blackmailed her, Savanna confronted her afterwards and was threatened into accompanying her into the ruins. Escoffier and the Traveler learned of Savanna's disappearance and went after her in the ruins, initially unaware of what she was trying to do. While taking a short break, Savanna revealed to Monica that she had poisoned their water, but became dismayed when Monica taunted her over it, having caught wind of her plot. After Escoffier and the Traveler confronted Monica, she held a knife at Savanna in order to keep them at bay.

Upon reaching the end of the ruins, Monica knocked Savanna out shortly before the Traveler and Escoffier arrived, having learned of the truth. Monica was enraged and out of frustration, smashed the jar, causing two Praetorian Golems to awaken. The two destroyed the golems, only for Monica to recover and hold Escoffier at gunpoint, wanting to take her down with her. To her surprise, Savanna recovered and tackled Monica to the ground, stating that she was "finally good for something". As the ruins began to collapse, she fled alongside the others, leaving Monica for dead. Outside the now-collapsed ruins, Savanna begs Escoffier to return as head chef, an offer which she rejects stating that Savanna needed to grow. Savanna ultimately respects her decision, with Escoffier demanding a rematch to take place immediately. Savanna proceeded to lose the rematch by a significant margin, accepting her loss and striving to do better.
