• Know-it-all
  
  • Basically a walking-wiki, if random trivia is what you’re looking for. And he’s pretty insufferable about it too. As long as it’s not relevant, chances are he’ll know it, and he’ll make you know it too. That’s not to say that he doesn’t come across occasional tidbits of actually useful info, but the sheer scope of trivia that is stored in his head is a little mind-boggling. Yes. He knows who the 62nd president of Hridnedfds is. Even if it doesn’t exist.
  
  
• Wrong Genre savvy
  
  • Pretty much. Unfortunately for him, however, he’s not in a high-school romantic-comedy where wild wacky hijinks ensue, but in the middle of a superpowers magic-war where civilian casualties tend to be uncomfortably high. That doesn’t stop him from making accurate predictions from time, although being aware of his surroundings more than helps.
  
  
• Big-brother instinct/Knight Templar Big Brother
  
  • Towards his younger sister. And the rest of his siblings too (Being older by two seconds is still being older, dammit!). But mostly his sister, Ilaria. Don’t even look at her funny if you don’t want him staring you down with his death glare. A highly cultivated death glare, but a death glare nonetheless. And he will be entirely justified in doing so because, y’know, you looked at his sister the wrong way. And god help you if you actually hurt her in some way. No dating until twenty.
  
  
• Stubborn
  
  • No. Isaia is never wrong. Why do you ask? But really, it’s difficult to sway him from a stance he’s taken, or separate him from an idea that’s he’s taken a fancy to. He tends to get rather fixated on his goals too. This might go from somewhat annoying to downright infuriating. On the flip side, though, Isaia doesn’t just quit halfway either.
  
  
• Principled
  
  • Isaia’s got to set a good example for his siblings, after all. He has a strong code of ethics that he adheres to firmly. Sure, he’s not always the nicest guy, but you know that he’s not going to stab you in the back for kicks.

He is the best at random trivia. Nobody beats him in trivial pursuit. Nobody. Some have speculated that he’s finished reading wikipedia. Yes. Wikipedia. And that’s only in addition to several editions of encyclopaedias. If that hasn’t clued you in already, he’s very widely read.

And he can drive so terribly it has become a skill. Really. There is a fine line to walk between crashing and burning and ‘OH MY GOD WE’RE GOING TO DIE’. Isaia is permanently walking that line while behind the wheel. And you wonder why he doesn’t get seasick.

He has also managed to cultivate a particularly menacing glare to make him look especially intimidating towards any possible suitors of his sister.

WEAKNESSES: //[/color]
Well, he’s just a normal student. He doesn’t have fancy magic abilities to throw around, he hasn’t taken superpowerful kung fu lessons, he doesn’t just happen to own firearms, and, finally, no, he doesn’t have some super sekirt powahs to be unlocked.

Anything else? Well, for one, he's a terribly sore loser. He will, not to mention being a bad sport, go into many days of brooding over such a little thing as losing a bet, that his siblings would inevitable have to snap him out of.

He also tends to be mouthy, and very just that little bit arrogant. [/ul][/size][/blockquote]

MY HISTORY: //

[/color]
Isaia is the eldest child (older than Amato by two seconds) of the Manlius family, and he certainly acts the part. You know. The responsible one. Especially since their parents always seemed to be overseas on some honeymoon or business trip, leaving the four siblings to more or less fend for themselves (the babysitters they got were incompetent).

This left Isaia as the oldest person in the household (by two seconds). In an odd turn of events, it wasn’t the younger twins who relied on him the most, but Amato. Who relied on him for everything. Besides cooking. And, funnily enough, driving. As a result, Isaia’s become proficient with most household chores, pushing himself to meet Amato’s expectations (That doesn’t stop him from epic failing as often as not when Amato asks him about the most obscure things, though). The fact that Isaia’s not all that good at cooking (except with tomatoes) might be a testament to the fact that cooking is the only task that Amato hasn’t shunted off to him at some point or another.

Somewhere along the way, he’s gotten hyperprotective to knight-templar levels about his younger sister, Ilaria, scaring off any potential suitors with a ‘good talking to’ (it was mostly his driving, but don’t tell anybody). At first, it was ‘no dating until legal’, and then ‘Oh my god you’re legal no way in hell am I letting those guys near you’, and now it’s no dating until twenty*. Not that Ilaria notices.

Ilario, his superstrength’d younger brother, on the other hand, is his right-hand man during Isaia’s OCD cleaning endeavours for heavy lifting. And in return, Isaia just might, maybe, occasionally wear some of those funny costumes that he keeps on sewing up. Isaia’s also on-hand for a good talking-down to when Ilario gets into the odd brawl, which he’s wont to do.

The Manlius siblings (hahaha no) get along pretty well as a family unit, even without their parents. They’ve never particularly wanted for anything (how their parents keep on sending them money from their myriad of honeymoon destinations, and where they get the money is still a mystery). In his last year of high school, Isaia’s considering moving away, or even overseas, for uni. It’s something that he’s mentioned only in passing reference, but there’s little doubt that his siblings won’t let him go.

That is, if Lucca even survives the grail war. Despite all these magi running around, Isaia’s only a high school student. All four of them are currently attending Instituto Procato di Nostra Signora Flora. (He aced that entrance exam, by the way.)

MY GOALS: //[/color] IDEK. HE’S A STUDENT. WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM HIM? Okay. Fine. I confess. He's from the future, and is also the guy who created skynet. Why he knows everything? He's also a robut. He wants to destroy the earth.

[/color][/b][/color]
He shares a car with Amato, although he’s not usually the one driving.

A snazzy 8th-gen Iphone. What can an 8th gen Iphone do? Why, lots of things, calling people the least of them. It can watch videos, surf the web, decide when your fish needs feeding, when your brother wants you to do his dishes, and much more.
He also has a sleek Mac laptop, still with the film on. He got it a year ago, and it is still polished to perfection. Everything is organized into folders, and each file is named individually.
Isaia also carries disinfectant and white gloves everywhere he goes. Along with some more disinfectant for the disinfectant. And maybe some napkins too. Disinfected napkins.

EXPERTISE: //[/color]
Terrible driving: So bad that it’s become a skill rather than a detriment, because he can somehow do all that he does. Without crashing the vehicle. He’d make for a good stunt driver, except, well, he’s blissfully unaware of just how terrifying his driving actually is.

Trivia: Does this really need more explanation? He knows the exact time and place that Proposition 58 was passed, and by whom. Not to mention what it is.

Cleaning: He’s one of the reasons why his home is so spotless. Not one single speck of dust will escape his broom. He’s also a stickler for organization. So while everyone else is lazing around, he’s busy making their living area spick and span.
