Appearance
Isaac is about six feet, five inches in height and is of a medium build. He is a white male with long (for a guy), silverish hair, that usually covers most of his face. He has to part it every morning to keep it out of his face so that he can actually see what he is doing. He has bright blue eyes. He usually wears two rings on his left hand, one of them is a skeleton with its arms crossed and bat wings folding across its chest across his middle finger and the other is a gold wedding band with the name Nina engraved inside it and the date of 7/7/7.
Personality
Isaac is an all around very nice guy. He is always seen with a smile on his face and is willing to listen to problems that anyone may be having. He has a lot of respect for his captain and can usually be found trailing behind him. However, in a battle he becomes very serious and goes all out against an opponent, no mercy comes from this man in a serious fight. However, if it's a mock fight, he will take it seriously, but wont go all out as well as in training.
History
Now, contrary to popular belief, Isaac may have been born in London, but he isn't from there. His mother and father had decided to take a trip there to see some family before he was born. However, Isaac had decided to come three weeks early and he was born in London. However, his family comes from Munich, Germany. A few weeks after having been born, Isaac's family went back to Germany. Isaac's father, Manfred Schwarz, was an established police officer and his mother, Elizabeth Schwarz, was a nurse at the Munich Hospital. Isaac's parents pressured him greatly during his school years, wanting him to get good grades so that he could have an easy college life. Isaac did just that. He was an excellent student and got straight A's in all of his class. Him and 7 other students graduated as Valedictorians at his school school. As was Customary for high school graduates in Germany, Alex had to spend either a year doing community service, or a year in the Military. He decided to do Military Service for a year, and learned basic combat skills.
After a year in the Military, Isaac came home and found out that he had received a full ride scholarship to the University of Munich. UOM was a very prominent school and Isaac took advantage of this fact. He decided to get a Teaching Degree. During his time at UOM he met a girl by the name of Nina Fuchs. Him and Nina dated very casually at first, seeing each other a few times a week, this way they could keep to their studies and have something to look forward to during the week. After they both graduated with Honors, Isaac landed a job teaching Social Studies at the High School he had graduated from. After saving a six months worth of pay, buying only what was needed and paying his bills, he took Nina on an elaborate trip to Italy for their four year anniversary. It was on this trip that Isaac proposed to Nina. She said yes to him and that night, they made love.
A few weeks later, Nina found out she was pregnant. Isaac was overjoyed and they decided to pull the date of the wedding ahead of schedule. They sat it for July 7, 1907, Making it their Lucky day (777). On his wedding date, Isaac and his best friend Mikel were standing outside of the chapel, greeting everyone as they came. Isaac asked Mikel if he could see the rings real quickly, wanting to look at them. Mikel handed him the rings and Isaac was examining them when a loud crack surfaced from the church. Looking up, a large stone gargoyle crashed on top of Isaac. Mikel had jumped out of the way to avoid it. Immediately, Mikel and Isaac's father and the other men in the immediate vicinity pushed the gargoyle off. It was very difficult, and it put a lot of strain on Isaac. He coughed blood. He knew he was going to die. "Get....Nina...." he choked out. He was still holding the rings in his hand. Nina came rushing outside, crying her eyes out. She lowered herself to the ground and kissed Isaac. Isaac was smiling. Using the last of his strength he put the ring on his finger and attempted to put hers on, but she ended up having to do it. He reached for her hand and she held it, looking at him. He began to cough again, blood dribbling out of his mouth. Leaning over, he spit it out so he could speak his last words. "Precious Nina.....you...." he paused, catching his breath "look so beautiful. Tell our child, that I love them, everyday. Say it enough for the both of us. Please, that is my last wissssh......" Isaac passed on at that point, his arm growing very heavy in Nina's.
Isaac had never really believed in an afterlife, imagine his shock when he awoke in the rukongai. He wasn't sure what was going on exactly. Hell, he didn't even remember dying. He walked around the Rukongai for a few days just asking people where he was. However, these people didn't even give him the time of day. It was as if they didn't even care at all. Finally he walked into a bar in the 49th district and just broke down. He sat there, at the bar table crying for what seemed like hours. No one was even the least bit caring it seemed. Isaac was still crying when he felt a tug on his shirt. Looking down, he saw a small child with fiery red hair, and a cute little face. She was kind of skinny, she obviously didn't even eat much. Isaac snorted once, and wiped the tears from his face. "Is there something you need, little girl?"
"What's wrong with you mister?" Isaac sighed. "Well, you see. I don't know where this is and no one will talk to me, as if they don't even want to bother answering me." "Well Mister, it's because you're dead..." "What?...Impossible, I can't be....AAAAAAAH!!!" Isaac yelled, grabbing his head. His entire body was shaking from some sort of intense, physical pain. It flooded back into his head, the gargoyle cracking and falling on top of him. That was it though, nothing more than his death came back to him. Isaac opened his eyes and looked around him, he was on the floor of the bar, curled into a ball. Getting up he rushed out of the bar and ran into an alley. He sat there, on a small box, and cried. He had no idea what had happened to him and then it all flooded back to him out of nowhere. What was going on? He didn't understand. Isaac sat in that alley, and just cried. He didn't leave it for a long tim, just sitting there, eating stuff that he found in the boxes littered throughout the alley.
After a few days, the residents began to make a formal complaint. They were getting tired of having their food stolen by some 'insane' man who didn't even realise he had died. The shinigami were getting annoyed at all the complaints, so they decided to send someone out to get him. The shinigami strolled into the alley and began to look around wildly. The small, dark space kind of creeped him out. He didn't understand how anyone could just stay in here for days on end. "Hello?" he called out. Waiting for a response, he stood there, just waiting. Nothing came for a few minutes so he called again "Hello!" The shinigami began to think that nothing was actually here, and that the crazy man must have left. That's when a hand reached out from underneath an old pile of trash and grabbed him by the leg. The shinigami yelped and scooted away. He looked around wildly, to make sure no one heard that. "You there! Come on out! You're not supposed to be back here." "Go away..." the voice called out "You don't understand anything that's going on." "I understand that you're not supposed to be here" said the shinigami. "Now you will either leave willingly, or I will make you leave." He drew his blade, prepared for anything that may come. "I SAID GO AWAY!!!" The voice shouted. A powerful gust of air swept through the alley, as if that man had caused it. The shinigami rushed forward, prepared for a fight and the man stood up from the trash, his fists raised. The shinigami easily knocked him out, using the blunt side of his blade, in one hit.
He drug the body, the man moaning from pain, out of the rukongai. He was disposed of in the Seireitei's holding cells. He sat there for a few hours, not moving at all. He wasn't sure what was going on exactly. All he knew was that the man had struck him with what looked like some sort of sword. The back of his head hurt, that was for sure. He heard a noise coming from the cell door. Looking over, Isaac saw another one of those black robed people coming towards him. "Stay away from me! I've had enough of you people!" He began to thrash and that strange wind began to blow through the air again, it wasn't as heavy this time. They grabbed Isaac and drug him out of the holding cell. There was a man in a white robe sitting in a chair in the front of the room. He looked very pleasant and was smiling rather cheerfully. "Please, have a seat" the man said, smiling and pointing to a chair in front of him. Isaac did as the man had said and sat down. He sat on the edge of the chair, as far away as he could get without actually getting off the chair. "Trespassing, attempted assault, theft. Rather hefty crimes wouldn't you say? I took the liberty of looking at your file, from when you were still alive. This kind of behaviour seems out of place for a teacher, wouldn't you agree?" Isaac's eyes bulged and he grabbed at his head again. That same yelling came from him again as he blacked out. The memories of him being a teacher came back to his head, flashes of a blonde woman smiling from when he was in college. It all came back to him, but he still didn't remember that much. Only the last part of his college days and his teaching days. Opening his eyes, he was once again on the floor, drool escaping his mouth and dripping onto the floor. He looked around, embarrassed. However, he didn't attempt to run, or anything. He just sat there, tears starting to roll down his face. "Interesting display" said the captain "Seems that you have absolutely no memories of your past. Impressive reitsu though, for someone just entering Soul Society......" Isaac blacked out.
Isaac awoke in the cell, the man was just sitting there, watching him. "AH! Finally you're awake. Quite an interesting display back there though. When you started freaking out like that my desk actually fell over HA HA HA! Rather entertaining. Listen, my subordinate doesn't care that you were like that in the alley. He realizes you're having a lot of....issues at this point in time. Now listen to me, I don't want you saying anything until I'm done talking ok. You're just lucky that someone from my division got sent out there to get you, if it would have been someone from Division 6 you probably wouldn't be as lucky as you are now. He just happened to be in the area at the time so they had him come to bring you in. My name is Tito Lopez. I am the captain of the recruitment division. You had a very impressive display back there, of your body's spiritual energy, or reitsu as we call it. I'm offering you one of two choices here, you can either sit in the shinigami prison for a year, or, you can enter the academy of shinigami. Who knows, maybe you'll get seated when you graduate. Either way, there needs to be some repentment for these crimes" The man wasn't joking. It was either rot in prison for a year, or go to school again. Now that he remembered his college days, he was kind of sick of thinking of going to school. Another six years....he rubbed his eyes and said "Ok, I'll go to your academy. It's better than going to jail I guess. I'm sorry for all this trouble I've caused since I've gotten here."
Isaac went into the academy after that point in his life. He passed the entrance exam with flying colors after studying all the necessary material with his recruiter, hands on. During the classes he really made an impression on his fellow students. He was very charming and pleasant to be around. He tried not thinking about the events that had happened when he first got there. He grew to accept everything that had happened in the last couple years. He excelled fairly well in the kidō classes, impressing the recruiter even more. He didn't really make many friends, instead just keeping a few acquantinces so that he could focus on his studies. He exceeded in his classes. He didn't pass at the top of his class, but that didn't really bother him. He knew he lacked a lot of the knowledge these guys had, but was very glad he graduated in the top ten percentile of his class. It was after graduation that he was approached by a very large man with a very big grin on his face. The man grabbed him around his mid-section and it felt like he was squeezing the life out of him. "CAPTAIN SHINO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" He choked out. "Oh, Isaac I'm so sorry ah ha ha...just, congratulations. Listen, I've seen your scores in the Kidō Department and they are amazing. I want you to join my division. I'm currently only offering you an unseated position, due to obvious reasons but Still, it would be an honor." Gasping for breath after captain shino had relinquished the hug, Isaac said "It would be wonderful to join the Kidō Corps..."
Entering the fifth division, Isaac was not immediately seated, in fact he still didn't have one. His captain wanted him to learn more and gain more skills before he gave him one of the seated positions in the division. Isaac immediately began his training...(and we'll go from that point).
Combat
Strengths
Charming: Isaac is a very nice man. Usually able to charm people into liking him very easily.
Intelligence: Isaac is a very smart man, and a very quick learner. He was able to learn to speak Japanese very quickly, though he has an accent to it and it is sometimes hard for people to understand him. Being a fast learner, he can study the practices of Kidō a lot easier and gain new skills faster than most.
Weaknesses
Memory Spikes: Since he has no memory of what happened in his past, once in a while he will see something, or someone, or something will be said that allows him to recall a past memory. This causes a crippling physical and emotional pain for a few seconds, which could be a major disadvantage in a battle. For some reason, his wedding band has not spiked any memories yet.
