Appearance:

Personality:

Many would say that Isaiah is very odd, he doesn't seem to understand how to be human. He speaks in a strange way, halting and constantly measuring his words. He talks about water a lot, using it in his comparisons and euphemisms. Things that he likes will usually be compared to water. He lacks affect in his speaking at times and it can be hard to tell if anything excites him or scares him. That strangeness can make it hard to relate to him and ends in him not easily making friends.

Beyond that, he's an individualist by nature. He doesn't like rules and regulations, he will usually push his limits as much as he can. When told to do something, he will almost always do the opposite. He hates being expected to do things and he hates having tasks set out for him. He tends to act recklessly and rush into things without thinking it through, this leads to him getting into trouble a lot.

When he's comfortable around a person, he becomes very invested in conversing with them. He'll tell them everything and make sarcastic jokes. He can come off a bit pushy with friends though, trying to direct them into his recklessness and he has little to no empathy for their problems. He won't go out of his way to help them while fully expecting them to help him. He can also come off as mean, pointing out their flaws at times, though he doesn't seem to understand that he's being hurtful.

Bio:

Born to the Unseelie court of the Fae, he lived like any other Kelpie would have. His life was spent in the depths of black water deep within a forest in Ireland, drowning wicked humans for fun and warning young children away from the water. As he grew up, he grew more and more curious about the world outside his lake. He found himself growing interested in the humans who wandered close to the edge and that was the first time that he ever changed his form.

The young lady on the other side had red hair and blue eyes, she was very startled when a thirteen year old boy surfaced from the water. So startled, in fact, that she stumbled and toppled into the depths. He was fumbly in his new form, his new fingers were numb with the cold and his limbs were awkward and hard to use. He scooped his arms beneath hers and waded her thrashing form back to the top, he helped guide her back onto the shore and she tried frantically to ask him where he'd come from.

The thirteen year old boy had not ever spoken in his human voice before and he tried his best to respond that he was the spirit of the water. She was scared, cold and dripping, she spoke with him though. It was the first contact that he'd ever had with a human, they talked for hours. He didn't have all of the right words and sometimes he had to use his gestures and noises to describe what he meant but she mostly understood. When she finally had to go, she made a promise to return at his insistence.

She showed up at first, visiting every day but it wasn't long before she stopped. His only connection to a world outside of the water was broken entirely and he was left wondering. That growing wonder and that growing need to know more about the world is why he sought out the academy.

Power 1:

Shape-shifting: This is an ability inherent of all Kelpies, giving them the freedom to be whatever form suits them most.

Power 2:

Water manipulation: Much harder to learn, it's the ability to manipulate the water in whatever way is necessary.

Likes:

Water, tricks, surprising people, doing as he pleases, drowning things.

Dislikes:

Heat, moral dilemmas, following directions, boring people.

Family:

N/A.

Friends:

(Feel free to let me know if anyone wants to be friends with the gross water horse. He's a bad friend but don't let that stop you.)

Sentimental Attachment:

An old silver locket that once belonged to the woman who used to visit him.

Weapon:

N/A.

Other:

- He needs to have open access to large bodies of water, he can be on land during periods of time but he has to be able to return to the water for a few hours every day or his human body will suffer damage.

- Isaiah Blackwater is not his real name, obviously. He was born only under a much longer name that he will refuse to disclose. In Fae lore, when someone knows your full name, they have the ability to control you completely and he'd rather avoid that.

- He does not have the ability to lie.
