For the original timeline version of this character, see Isaac. Dracula will bring a pure world into being; I believe that. I believe him. I want, of all things, a pure world, a clean world, where there is only loyalty and only love. Isaac in "Old Homes" Isaac (アイザック, Aizakku?) is a major character in the Castlevania animated series. Initially, appearing as an antagonist, serving as one of Dracula's two human generals in his army (the other being Hector), he later plays a more protagonistic role. He was voiced by Adetokumboh M'Cormack in the English version of the show.

Background Isaac is a Forgemaster under Dracula's orders. Years ago, as a slave, he was viciously lashed by his master, who discovered him going through his books, despite Isaac doing so in an attempt to help him. This drove Isaac to his breaking point, where, in a fit of rage, he killed the man. This left Isaac with a grudge against all humans, including brigand magicians who wanted to sell his body parts and whom Dracula rescued him from. He joins Dracula in his revenge campaign against mankind. While Isaac had a very difficult childhood and was severely mistreated, he managed to travel across much of Africa and the Middle East as a child and learned magic from a renegade occultist's books.[1] At Dracula's castle Isaac is present as Dracula meets with his generals over his war to destroy Humanity. As his loyal ally, he senses that some members of the court might try to betray him. When confronted by Godbrand, who he believed was one of the traitors, Isaac took the opportunity to attack and kill him. Hector convinces Isaac to agree with Carmilla's idea to attack Braila, who in turn convinces Dracula to move the castle. There, he and his master suffered betrayal at Carmilla's hand, then the castle was forcibly teleported above the Belmont library. A few moments later, when Trevor, Sypha and Alucard stormed into Dracula's castle, Isaac offered to stay and defend Dracula, but the latter sent him through a magic portal to protect him. Isaac was stranded in the Sahara desert, unable to defend his master, who was killed by the trio of adventurers. He swore to get his revenge and started to raise an army himself from a group of bandits who attacked him.

Seeking revenge Isaac travels the world with a small army of monsters, eventually reaching a port in Tunis. He there met a shopkeeper who offered him a mirror with magical properties, allowing him to see his desires. When heading to the docks, guards stopped Isaac and eventually ordered his minions to kill and eat them when they refused to let him pass. Isaac later met a captain, who offered him access to his ship and safe travel to Genoa. He and the captain discussed Isaac's current path and became friends. He suggests to Isaac to live his own story rather than keep following Dracula and after taking revenge in Styria, become ruler of their land. In Genoa, Isaac was forced to kill more stubborn guards after they refuse to let him pass through the city, converting their corpses to be part of his army. A few days later, he met an old woman named Miranda who was living in a mountain pass. She explained to him that a powerful magician was living in a city farther in the mountains and that he mentally enslaved an entire town. Isaac stormed into the city and fought the magician's slaves alongside his own creatures, eventually encountering the old wizard in his tower. There, he tried to control Isaac, but failed and was killed at his hands, dispelling the magic around the enslaved. After discovering the transmission mirror, Isaac commands his beasts to kill the people to convert their corpses, but leave the city standing.

Future plans Afterward, Isaac has his night hordes repair the buildings and bury the corpses that were too ruined to convert, with the hope that others might occupy this city. He reflects on his new status in life, that when he killed the Magician, be described the feeling as repairing the world a little, and liked that feeling. Isaac realizes that he has only reacted to things his whole life and was content to be the knife for others to wield, and remarks that he has changed. He discovers that he has agency in this world and can create futures. Once Isaac has prepared his night horde army, he begins his long-awaited invasion of Carmilla's castle in Styria, intending to leave Hector for him alone. His monsters kill every vampire and opposing night creature they see, and Isaac reaches Hector and Lenore, who happens to be trapped in a magic cage. To Hector's surprise, he spares them both, especially after Hector cuts off his own finger to remove the binding ring. Then, they activate a barrier using stones Hector placed around the castle to trap Carmilla inside her throne room, currently being overwhelmed by night creatures. Carmilla and Isaac then fight to the death. Isaac, with his army of night creatures, gets the upper hand and fatally wounds her. Carmilla commits suicide by stabbing herself to trigger an explosion rather than fall to her enemies.

When the battle is over, Isaac returns to Hector. They discuss how they were used as tools for leverage their whole lives, how they both changed since Dracula's death, and how they can and should move forward. They should let Dracula have his rest and do nothing to disturb it. While Hector wants to live in peace with Lenore, Isaac becomes interested in building a way to live. He decides to become king of Styria and, from this conquered nation, build a land where people can have a future. Appearance Isaac is a Devil Forgemaster who is equally as cruel as he is loyal to Dracula. He'll do whatever it takes to make sure Dracula's plan come to fruition. Isaac's profile description Isaac's appearance greatly differs from his Curse of Darkness design, where the character was originally introduced. He appears as a tall, bald man with dark-colored skin. He wears the Forgemaster uniform, the same outfit as Hector. He has the outward appearance and quiet, peaceful demeanor of a Sufi aesthetic, but having a great intellect and hiding his deepest emotions.[1] He is a Sufi and doesn't drink liquor.

Personality Loyalty is central to Isaac's persona. Isaac believes in unconditional loyalty and love toward his master. In return, his master should reciprocate with appreciation. His first master, a human priest, proved himself unworthy of loyalty when he sadistically tortured Isaac. This experience created Isaac's desire for a world where love and loyalty are universal. He is fanatically loyal to Dracula, the only person who respected him and appreciated his service. Isaac views Dracula as both a master and the only true friend he ever had, and will kill any threats to him without a second thought. Dracula, in turn, acknowledged Isaac's pure loyalty, calling him the best of his species and saved his life when they were cornered. Just as loyalty is paramount to Isaac, he hates disloyalty more than anything. Isaac killed Godbrand the instant he revealed his intention to betray Dracula. After Dracula's death, Isaac made it his purpose to travel across the world to kill the remaining betrayers, Carmilla and Hector. Isaac is an ardent misanthrope, hating humanity nearly as much as Dracula. Isaac routinely is exposed to the petty cruelties of man. Humans will often attack him when he just wants to pass by, further solidifying his hatred of men. Isaac first experienced these cruelties when his first master savagely whipped him, showing that humans were unworthy of his loyalty. Isaac whips himself in a masochistic way to remind him of this beating and purge corruption from his own body. However, Isaac does note the kind deeds of the humans who help him. Sadly, he comes to view them as distractions from the overwhelmingly negative experiences with men. Isaac largely ignores the cruelty of vampires because of his close friendship with Dracula.

Cold and ruthless, Isaac kills without mercy. This is exemplified when he and the Magician fought over who would exploit Legion, thousands of innocent humans who would serve as fodder for Isaac's army. Isaac is not without kindness, though; he genuinely respects those who treat him kindly, human and vampire alike. Isaac was distraught when Dracula banished him to a desert to spare him from being slain by Trevor, Sypha and Alucard. After killing a gang of bandits, Isaac decides to wage a war against humanity on his own, reviving the corpses of his assailants to serve in his army. While Isaac initially made it his purpose to carry out Dracula's will and kill those who betrayed him, during his travels, Isaac begins to contemplate his new life and purpose. He starts stepping outside of Dracula's shadow after the Captain tells him: "If you don't have your own story, you become part of someone else's." Isaac is quickly becoming a man of self-agency and now commands a legion of night hordes to see his will done. After killing the Magician, Issac unexpectedly finds himself at peace, having done something that he views as genuinely good and helpful to the world. He discovers that he enjoys doing good and concludes that his time is best spent trying to assure the future of others. He also begins to show more empathy toward others, such as burying those killed in his fight with the Magician, cleaning and repairing the city in the aftermath for potential settlers and forgiving Hector for his role in Dracula's death. Looking back on his actions, he concludes that he was childish to hate all of humanity and blindly follow Dracula, as well as seek revenge against Hector, as he was manipulated by Carmilla. When he moves to kill Carmilla, it is not for revenge, but to stop her mad ambitions. It is this new mindset that leads him to reject Varney's plan to resurrect Dracula. Since his journey across the world, Isaac better understands Dracula's pain and concludes that bringing him
