## Appearance

### Default

A lover of alternative fashion and all that is colorful, Isidore's wardrobe reflected his passion. Studded leather jackets, fishnets, ripped jeans, ballet skirts, pastel platforms, etc. The same could be said to the way he uses makeup or his hair. His main staples for any of his looks are an old leather jacket with tassels and studs, a hand-me-down from his dad, a pair of striped sleeves, and a yellow butterfly clip.

### Work

Whether it's performing in front of adoring fans, teaching a bunch of rowdy youngsters, or even recording his latest album, there's always an outfit for every for occasion. Pirate shirts, turtlenecks, suspenders, cardigans, jeans, cargo pants, Doc Martens, and sneakers before finishing it off with subtle makeup and a bit of jewelry for an edgy yet polished look as a teacher. On stage, his clothes reflect Isidore's larger-than-life persona with neon colors, shredded tights, chains, studded jacket, fishnets, combat boots, corset tops, ballet skirts, graphic tees and fingerless gloves. Mixed with neon & metallic makeup with spiked jewelries and wild faux-hawks, Isidore is more than ready to set the stage ablaze.

### Combat

His hair suit is a modified version of the clothes he has once worn in his broken youth. Vivid colors, spikes, bold makeup, and edgy silhouette all while not neglecting the comfort and practicality to perform in any battlefield. Coupled with a pair of platform boots and rose colored shades, he'll stomp out any enemies in style.

## Personality

Kind, spirited, passionate, genuine, quick-witted, spontaneous, resilient, and optimistic, Isidore is a man with a zest for life. He enjoys being adored and loves to bring smiles in people's faces, finding it how it made the world a lighter, brighter. Aside from his jovial disposition, decades of experience, and knowledge made him wise and sensitive beyond his years. If they wanted an advice or two or even just a silent shoulder to lean on, Isidore is the guy to do so without asking for anything in return. He also enjoys pulling harmless pranks and oftentimes join in one of his sister's zany schemes for fun.

Underneath it all lies a darker side which very few knew. Years worth of torment, cruelty, betrayals, deaths, and overall bleakness hardened his once tender heart immensely, as if to shield himself from the harshness. It's hard to earn his trust, and even harder to fix it, the kind where he'll always forgive but never forget. The amount of people he opened up to can be counted with both hands, and even then Isidore felt like he was bothering. He's the type to bury his emotions, and troubles, deep inside him until they're too much for him to handle. It doesn't help that he also suffered a severe lack of self-confidence because of it. There are days when he'd disappear without a trace, either to mourn, recharge, or contemplate. With the help of his friends and loved ones, Isidore learns to handle his emotions properly and opened himself up, bit by bit.

It is, however, unwise to underestimate him, for Isidore is taught by his father to match the energy of those who hurt him. Ruthless, vindictive, protective, cold-blooded, petty, calculating, vicious, full of righteous fury, and wily, he's the kind of witch who held a deep grudge and never forget it. The witch's trust is hard to earn, and even harder to mend once broken. All in all, Isidore is a powerful witch with a heart too big for his own good.

## History

To say his life is exciting would be an understatement of the century. Grown up with an anarchist doctor for a father, and a sweet yet tough dance teacher for a mother, Isidore's childhood was anything but ordinary. He spent his days either with his father in the hospital, with his mother at the dance studio, or with his best friend,Durante, and other children playing around in town. Isidore enjoys talking and listening to townsfolks as they told him their stories, from punk rockers telling about their latest exploits, fishmongers regaling him tales of the sea, gossips from the old ladies in the markets, the stories are endless and it always excited him. When he was 4, his life became even more chaotic when his baby sister, Marisol, was born. From there, Isidore would often drag her into every misadventures alongside with his best friend, Durante.

It wasn't until tragedy struck him at the tender age of 9, on a hot summer afternoon. Isidore, his baby sister, and Durante decided to explore a dilapidated building, not too far from the town. All he could remember from that horrific nightmare was Isidore begging Durante to run far from here while he tried to save his faster. From there, he spent 10 years in Hell on earth, growing up too fast to protect his sister and other children who are either orphans, abandoned, or sold off like an object. Year by year, he prayed to every higher powers known to man, hoping to find a way out of this damnation. His prayers were answered, though not in the way he wanted. Shocking revelations, a bloody Christmas Eve, the sounds of missiles raining down at the facility, both he and Marisol were the sole survivors of the bloodbath as their adoptive sister, Renata, pushed them into the ocean as she begged for them to live on. The gruesome scene was the last thing they saw before being swallowed by darkness.

2 decades passed and Isidore was plunged into a whirlwind of love, war, betrayal, hope, and despair before reaching the climax where he soon forged a deadly pact with an Infernal at the cost of his life. After a month-long coma, tears were shed as a broken family became whole again and the lost siblings received some much-needed aid for their broken psyche. Once physically and mentally sound, Kahina, his mother, recommended him to enroll to a prestigious academy dedicated to future witches and sages to hone their innate abilities. After a few deliberations, both Isidore and Marisol agreed to her suggestion.

It took some time for both him and Marisol to fully adjust to this peculiar era but with guidance from loved ones, they slowly begin to thrive in this new environment. Years passed, and Isidore just recently graduated from the academy with flying colors, using the skills he'd learned throughout the years to protect the balance of the Trinities. All while juggling between careers, life, secrets, and trying to hide his existence from former allies. Little does he know, life is about to throw him into another misadventure, one that involves the now-revived siblings who each own a piece of his old heart.

## Abilities

### Physical

Due to his time spent at the facility spent training to be a super soldier of sort, and battling through waves of gang members, monsters, and human-made horrors, he's capable of performing superhuman feats no mortal could achieve. One of them is being able to wield objects or weapon a mere human couldn't able to handle. Coupled with his father's tengu blood, his mother's innate gift, his acrobatic gift, and a brain which absorbs any information with frightening ease, Isidore is a monster in the battlefield, as evidence when he slew a godlike dragon-human hybrid and succeeds.

Though, he struggles at first against foes that aren't Draconian hybrids or power-hungry sycophants. It took him a few years under the watchful tutelage of the Umbra witches where he could reach to where he is now. Graceful as he is, Isidore treats the fields of honor like a stage, with his opponents as the cast of a show. And he'll always end it with a dazzling smile on his lips in the aftermath of a massacre.

### Magical

Isidore realizes early on that he excels in all things magical. Under Durante's guidance, he unlocks his potentials faster than his peers which allows him to master the Dark Arts such as Demon Slave, though he hasn't reached to his lover's level just yet. In addition to years worth of honing his dark gifts, his pact with Phenex enables him to manipulate not only music, but minor versions of time and soul magic to aid him on and off the battlefields.

#### Summoning

Like Durante, both Isidore and Marisol's half Tengu lineage blessed them with a seemingly vast reservoir of magic power, which allows them to unleash an onslaught of infernal attacks for a longer period. It also helps them to call forth an Infernal immediately after one is dispersed, making their battles go smoothly.
