Complete Silence: Isa destroys all barriers and cancels out all augmentations and silences all enemies. Silence wears off after 3 post rotations or until it's cured. Requires all of the gauge and can no longer collect power from the moon. Leaves Isa exhausted and is only capable of using a portion of his full stength.
Darkness: Like any Dark XII member Isa can create a corridor to another world with the power of darkness.
Control: Isa can control simple heartless like shadows and soldiers.
Weapon/Items: Final Whisper: Isa uses a pair of tonfa as his weapon of and only real choice of combat. The tonfa are identical in every way, shape, and form. The weapon fits in the palm of Isa's hand with the grip head sticking from the top of his hand. The body of the weapon sticks out approximately a half foot ahead of the grip and about two feet behind the grip. The body is cylindrical in shape with an inch wide diameter while there slightly wider segments at the front and back of the weapon that give an additional 3 centimeters.
At the front and back of the weapon on the wider circles, a Heartless Symbol printed on them. This symbol when struck against someone has two stages. Stage 1 (First post since struck.), a dark bruise begins to form producing partial pain and numbness. Stage 2 (Third post since struck.), Feeling of numbness intensifies and pain is felt around the surrounding area of the strike.
The weapon is colored primarily black with the head of the grip, the front end and rear end of the weapon being completely black. The rest of the weapon is black with wavy patterns of blue.
Picture: Appearance: Isa drew the short straw between him and his nobody in height, Isa only standing at about six foot, one inch. His face contains no scars to speak of and his eyes are the same green they were as when he was a teenager. He keeps his light blue hair somewhat well kept, having it at a mid-short length style that extends just past his ears. He weighs approximately 165 lbs. cutting a lithe figure, having wiry muscle across the majority of his frame.
He is not prone to showing this off though and those who didn't know him wouldn't be the first to underestimate his strength. He wears a purplish blue button up shirt which is neatly tucked in his black dress pants. He wears a black tie secured by his black blazer, which is buttoned at the two middle buttons. His dress pants are black of course, as is the belt though the buckle is silver. He of courses finishes off this fancy attire with a pair of mid sized black dress shoes.
Personality: Isa has never felt a sense of camaraderie with the members of the Dark XII and the only two people he gives respect to are his friend, Lea, and because it is a must, Ansem. He couldn't care less about the other members plights or reasons and simply expects them to do their job. That being said he would much rather have to work with any other member than he would with Arlene, as he is often irritated with her attitude and shenanigans.
Isa is quick to make fun of others, and give sarcastic responses, especially to Lea. He tries not to care what others think of him and is wholly devoted to the cause of the Dark XII, as he doesn't have anything else to truly live for. Isa also dislikes his Nobody counter-part, as he seems only devoted to finding himself a heart, while he doesn't really see the point in trying to find a new heart, he likes his drowned in the dark.
While facing an opponent Isa's fighting could be compared to that of the quote 'A lion will use all of it's strength to kill a rabbit,' as he see's little point in holding back his power. That being said, he prefers issuing light taps with the front and back of his weapon for numerous hits, instead of full force blows as he can disable and overcome his opponent much quicker this way.
Original World: Radiant Garden
Current World: The World That Never Was, The Castle of Abyss
History: Isa was born on the world of Radiant Garden, a world filled with light and caring people. Isa was a good student and son, though a bit distant at times. When he met Lea, they ended up becoming something similar to friends, while Isa played the calm, stoic type that often picked on his friend, Lea covered the role of being the brash, arrogant, but outgoing person that seemed to take the lead on getting them dragged into sticky situations.
Isa had met his first Keyblade wielder, Ventus, when he was a teenager but he wouldn't know that until several years later. Lea had tried to pick a fight with the boy but he was beaten in a no-contest match. While Lea had looked to him support, Isa spent the time making fun of him, all in good humor though. Sometime after the boy had left they had tried breaking into Ansem the Wise's castle, a plan Isa would rarely agree to but the mystery of the place attracted him and helped Lea with the plans. This plan ended in them getting thrown out by Dilan and Aeleus.
This would not stop the two from re-attempting the plan more than once, though it made little difference as they were always caught. It was during one of these break ins that things seemed different in the castle. The guards were gone, and no matter where they looked they couldn't find them. They took this time to explore the castle and soon found a laboratory, one that looked rather new in contrast to the rest of the castle. What, more specifically, who they found inside was Xehanort. He was holding a weapon similar to the one he had seen Ventus wield and took a step back. It only took a second, as Xehanort was not wanting to let any info leak of the cruel experiments he performed quickly hit his and Lea's chest with the key, un-sealing their heart and letting darkness flood in, this was Isa's end as that of a human.
When he came to, the sky was dark and he felt an uneasiness in his chest. He examined the landscape and knew at once he was no longer within the garden. He examined himself and found his 'skin' had become a dark black, thinking he was hallucinating he closed his eyes, thinking when he opened them that they'd be back to normal. When he opened them his skin was back to normal. But he still felt something was off. Lea was not with him, and a sense of loneliness set in. He set off, determined to find something, knowing that staying there wouldn't help. It was when a man calling himself Ansem approached him and told him of what was, what Xehanort made him.
Isa was neither amused, nor sad as he had much to think over. Ansem looked like the man who attacked him, though there were some key differences. He had also known that this was not the Ansem the Wise, his mannerisms much different, as he was malicious while Ansem the Wise seemed like a kind old man when he was seen out of the castle. He chose to follow this Ansem for the time though, knowing that there may not be another chance like this. He learned of the powers that manifested within him, gaining control and experience as he practiced. When the Dark XII was formed, he was assigned #VII and glad to be reunited with Lea, wary of all but him. For now he is still acting in the Dark XII's interest.
Role Playing Sample: The 'morning' at The Castle of Abyss was already looking to be a terrible one. Isa quickly spit out a sock that had been placed in his mouth, gagging realizing it wasn't one of his, but Lea's. Isa felt like vomiting, if he was capable of it, and his rage was already starting to peak. Several of the Dark XII liked playing little tricks here and there but the one who seemed to delight in it the most was the little lightning witch Arlene. Isa ground his teeth together, as he disliked being awoken, much less with a sock in his mouth. He walked out the door, his formal attire looking neat and clean as usual, slamming it behind him as he made his way to what could be called a 'family room'.
"Good mooorning sleepy head," was heard as he made his way in.
"Cut the crap Arlene," Isa said, as he listened to the sound of his own grinding teeth, wanting to ring her pretty little neck. Oh how he wished he could be given a pass, just one chance to shut the bitch up once and for all.
"You really don’t have to be so grouchy.” An immediate glare was given to Arlene, now sitting up and trying to play her little innocent act she seemed to like to put on. He knew all about the little games she liked to play and while not minding if the target weren't him he hated it when it was.
“You know babe all of that would leave wrinkles in your face..., and that’s soo not hot.” Arlene spoke as she walked towards him, giving him a slight shove, disappearing into a corridor but not before giving him a quick jolt. He would've torn her head off right then but she was already gone and the sound of his grinding teeth grew even louder. A chipping sound was heard as the grinding had put enough pressure to break a piece off of a bicuspid. He quickly reformed it, there appearance changeable at the drop of a hat.
Isa needed to find a way to relieve his anger, but disputes between the members where to be non-violent, especially within the walls of the castle. Isa went back up to his room, knowing he could find a large punching bag he used as a practice dummy when he first started to learn to fight. Several minutes passed with Isa eventually breaking the bag, causing it's contents to leak. While this may have served to cool his rage, he now had a mess to clean. As he had expected, it was not a good 'morning' in the least, swearing he'd get Arlene back at some point.
Questions/Comments/Suggestions? Pulling an old profile up I once made on my old account, seemed likable the last time but I quit shortly afterward so never really got to try em out.
I did not change the abilities as I felt they were still balanced and added one for the weapons. Other than that, gave him newish stuff all around. Feel free to examine the old.
