Isaac Leonardo Da Costa

[Isaac Da Costa]

NAME: Isaac Leonardo Da Costa
NICKNAME: Zac
AGE: 17
GENDER: Male
ORIENTATION: Heterosexual
POSITION: Bellefonte Student
FACE CLAIM: Brenton Thwaites

POWER: Vocal Mimicry
Isaac has the ability to mimic the voices and sounds of other people, or things around him. He can imitate sounds such as animal noises, other people (both male and female), and sounds such as for example, gunshots, explosions, farts (yes, he does this a lot). He can mimic any sound he hears or has heard with perfect clarity along with any manner of sound that was made.

LIMITATIONS:
* Must have heard the sound or the voice he mimics at least once.

* His vocal chords have the same limit as any other human being, which means that he cannot make louder noises or sounds that anyone else can. And if he does, his vocal chords might get harmed.

* Accuracy might depend on how well he remembers the voice or sound, which means that he can, and probably will get certain things wrong, or make someone's voice sound off.

* He can sometime experience involuntary mimics, which means that without meaning to, he can suddenly start mimicking a sound or someone's voice. This will get better with training and control.

* Can get stuck on one sound/voice sometimes. Like, for a short amount of time, he can't change back to his own voice.

SIDE-EFFECTS:
* Sore throat, sore/swollen tonsils, loses his voice from time to time. (This can last from a few hours to a few days, depending on how much he has used his power)

* Headaches that can develop into migraines, and from there develop into nausea and nosebleeds.


APPEARANCE SECTION: Isaac has light brown hair that has a natural sway to it. Not curly, mind, just not straight either. He often dyes his hair blonde, so switching between having light brown and golden blonde isn't a rare feat to see with the young boy. Because of his Italian heritage, Isaac has a naturally tanned skin that's on the border of being olive and has a pair of brown eyes to compliment his skin tone.

Standing 6'1 feet above ground, Isaac considers himself fairly tall and despite being thin, he's not scrawny. He has a naturally muscular toned body and often wears clothes that heightens this (at least, under his hoodies), such as tank tops. On colder days, he's prone to using dark hoodies, shirts and pants. He much prefers loose fitting clothes, despite the tank tops he's often seen using.

Isaac carries himself with confidence; He rarely worries what other people think about him. He's often seen smiling or being goofy. Seeing him sad or even depressed is a rare feat as he tries his best being optimistic, because come on, no one likes a party pooper. He's very friendly, which shows on his entire being. 

MUST HAVE APPAREL: A leather necklace with a white fang at the end of it. He doesn't know what about it makes it so sentimental, but he never takes it off. He likes having it around his neck, and feels like it will one day bring him good luck.

PERSONALITY SECTION: Isaac is a very curious boy and if there's something that doesn't make sense to him, he will try his best to figure it out. He doesn't follow rules or expectations unless they make sense and often questions things. He's more of a 'follow your own path' rather than 'following the herd' kind of guy. Despite having strict parents, Isaac has quickly learned to stand up for himself and not worry too much about what other people expect from him. He is a very friendly person, but the Italian temper isn't hidden to far below the goofy and childish surface.

Being a very charming young boy, Isaac has grown fond of flirting and the company of women. He's not disrespectful or an ass about it, mind, but he has under several occasion shown signs of having difficulties committing to just one person at a time. He often grows bored and tired of people quite rapidly, and has never really been the type to settle down with just one person, much to his mother's dismay.

Isaac loves being around people and meeting new ones. He loves making friends and talking, and he also loves hanging out and playing sports. He very much hates being alone which often leaves him feeling depressed and moody, which also goes for sleeping alone. There is nothing he likes more than having someone in the bed next to him, even if there's nothing sexual behind it.

All in all, Isaac is more of a friend type than boyfriend material. He's a great listener and perfect for any lady looking for a summer fling that doesn't develop into anything more. He doesn't understand the concept of love and doesn't think he will anytime soon. He much prefers being free to do as he pleases, rather than having some jealous babe hanging over his shoulder.

If I were to describe Isaac in few words, it would be charming, friendly, goofy, social and curious. Even though he has the classical Italian temperament, he doesn't go out of his way to show it. It takes a lot to anger him and he tries his best to look at everything from the bright side, which has in many cases rendered him at loss from taking things seriously.

EXTRA QUIRK: Whenever someone touch or bap his nose, Isaac wrinkles his nose without really realizing it. It's an involuntary gesture, almost to the point of being an OCD. He doesn't know why it happens, but people seem to find it incredibly hilarious.

CHILDHOOD: Isaac was born to Matteo and Elena Da Costa in Trento, Italy, but before the boy was old enough to make any memories of the country, and even before he was old enough to be baptised, his parents decided to move to America to start their lives anew, because of difficulties finding jobs and having enough money to raise their son. Once they arrived in America, New Orleans, Louisiana, Isaac's parents decided to teach the boy both English and Italian so that he could always feel 'connected' to his birth country, despite having no memories of the place.

Despite being new to the country and not born there, the Da Costa family found their place in the world. Elena started working as a seeress and Matteo got a job as a janitor at a local school. Despite lacking a lot of money, the Da Costa family managed and Isaac didn't have many complaints. This was the world he knew, and the world he was used to. Surely, as many others, he often wondered what life would have been like had his family been rich, but all in all, the young boy was content.

From an early age, Isaac was taught to respect his elders and always do the right thing. That wasn't always easy for the young boy to do, as he was a very curious, charming and mischievous young boy, even from an early age. He never really understood the concept of rules and boundaries and always seemed to wanting to do his own thing, which more often than not ended up getting him into trouble. His parents were awfully strict with him, never abusive, just strict. They had a set image of how they wanted their boy to act, but Isaac being the curious boy he was, never really settled down. He was far too curious to ever settle down for the rules that he was expected to follow.

Even so, as Isaac grew older, as did his curiosity, and the older he got, the more prone he was at getting into trouble. Nothing major, and nothing where the police had to be involved, mind, he just never seemed to enjoy following the herd and he rather wanted to make his own path, regardless of what everyone else seemed to expect of him.

ADOLESCENCE: When Isaac turned twelve, his power manifested. It was shocking at first and he had no clue what was going on. Luckily for the young boy, his mother was there to witness it. At first, she stared at her son for a full minute without really saying anything, but then she picked up the phone to call her husband. Telling Isaac to sit still, the young boy did as he was told. Within twenty minutes, Matteo arrived back home. Isaac learned that his grandfather, Matteo's father had also been a mutant, but that the gene had seemingly skipped one generation.

After a long talk about his grandfather, Isaac's curiosity grew even further, but his father had no more knowledge about the subject, not being a mutant himself. It was apparent that the subject was a very tender and secretive one, so instead of asking more questions, Isaac pondered about it in silence.

It didn't take long for the recruiters to show up though, and within two weeks of his initial manifestation, a recruiter showed up on the Da Costa family's doorstep. He didn't have to explain much, or even plead for them to take the boy away. Isaac was already ready and eager to begin his new life as a mutant, and his family knew better than to try swaying the recruiter's decision. After all, what did they know about training a teenage mutant?

Isaac's life at the school was an interesting one. He was eager to learn more about his own kind and learn how to control his ability. He swallowed every bit of information he could possibly gather. He was never really all that interested in school work and mainly focused on his training, as that was seemingly the only thing that could get his interest, but he somehow managed to hold an average C grade through most of his classes.

As Isaac grew older, his curiosity about the world never faded. He soon grew out of his childish ways though and like most teenagers, his interest quickly turned to be more about partying, women and sports.

Now at the age of seventeen, Isaac's social life has blossomed and he has quickly grown to become a friendly, fun-loving and social young boy. He looks forward to graduating in a few years and get on with his life, though, he doesn't worry too much about it. He has never, and probably won't be one of those who plans ahead, and rather focuses on what happens right in front of him.
