History[]
Early Life[]
Isaak's dad, Roswell, was a safety inspector for mines operating all throughout the northern counties of the Sword Coast.
Isaak used to work in the mines with Cassidy and 24 others.
At some point he met June and Jack and was the only person in the town to see the Red Robe known as "The Visitor".
Isaak, under the thrall of the Temporal Chalice, would end up killing Jack as they were looking for June in the mines together by pushing him over the edge of Shaft B. As Jack fell, he turned to face Isaak, and Jack shouted his last word, a spell that he flung in Isaak's direction, which missed and flew over Isaak's head as he sank into the black below.
Isaak looked behind himself to see that June had grabbed the Temporal Chalice right where Jack dropped it and was now frozen in place by a barrier that he was unable to penetrate. There was nothing he could do to get her out of that state.
Isaak would later figure out that Jack’s last spell was to conjure an earth elemental, a guardian to protect June and protect all of Refuge in his absence. Because he believed Refuge deserved a better guardian than himself, Isaak equipped the earth elemental with some gear, gave them a name--Roswell, his dad's name--and set them on patrol, using the summoning spell’s command word (Junebug).
After Jack's death, Isaak was made Town Elder.
The Eleventh Hour[]
At first, not much is known about Sheriff Isaak other than his job title. While in Refuge’s jail, the boys learn from Cassidy that Isaak is human, lives in the large two-story manor in town, and is both the mayor and town elder. Cassidy also calls him a "good dude." They then learn from Roswell that he was the only person to have seen the figure in the red robe.
The boys later learn from Ren that Sheriff Isaak took over after Jack, the previous Elder, had died. She notes that some townspeople preferred Jack over Isaak, but adds that she thinks Isaak is doing his best. She also calls him a “sourpuss,” implying that he brings down The Davy Lamp’s “fun, flirty atmosphere.”
During the bank heist, Taako learns through Isaak's journal that, under the Temporal Chalice's lull, he had murdered Jack. Before he could take it for himself, June took the Chalice and bubbled herself, along with Refuge.
In order to atone for his murder of Jack, Isaak decided to guard the bubbled-up June while also keeping the Chalice away from anyone else's grasp. He and the Tres Horny Boys would later have a scuffle in the quarry, which ended with Taako popping June's bubble with The Chance Lance.
