polite, hygienic, can be outspoken, can be very laid back, can also get really angry but this rarely happens, loves being involved with people even if he can sometimes come off as standoffish, doesn’t always show it but he likes being dominant, absolutely loyal to those he loves

[ THE ULTIMATE GOAL ]: To genuinely love and be loved, though if you asked him he would either say he didn’t know or something about composition.
[ THE PREVIOUS SUCCESSES ]: Has played a piano piece he created for a concert which was attended by the President of the United States and the Russian Ambassador. He has also played on several other occasions for governors and other political figures.
[ THE STRUGGLES ]: Needless to say, Isaac and Isabelle have lived a rather plush life, but the biggest thing Isaac has always struggled with is his father’s standards of him as an only son and what that means in the political spectrum. As proud as his father is of his immense success thus far in music, Isaac always knows, even when it’s not said, that his father would rather him do something ‘meaningful’ in his life like work in politics or become a young brilliant lawyer. There is always a sense of failing his father that looms in the back of his mind, even at the peaks of his success.

[ THE OTHER SCHOOL ]: Isaac and Isabelle went to montessori school at the beginning of their education, but that turned out to not go so well when Isabelle decided to be the center of attention and of course Isaac went along for the ride. The private tutor method went much better with Isaac anyways. They always changed so he didn’t ever have to connect with any of them for too long and it gave him much more time to do what he wanted, however he wanted with his music. Besides, if you pay them enough, they don’t try to correct your artistic creativity. He was accepted into Harriman for piano, which he naturally excels at, but has now branched into composition, which he adores. He has a decent knowledge in a few other instruments, though after piano, his favorites are violin and guitar. He also writes, but refuses to take the writing classes because he views writing more as his personal time than actually creating works.

LOOKS, LOCKS, AND LEGS

[ THE PLAYED-BY ]: Gaspard Ulliel

[ THE EYES ]: Isaac's eyes are the trait he shares most with his sister. Though her eyes are more round than his, They are both made of almost identical colors and patterns. The calmed sea blue of his iris stands out quite distinctly against the dark lashes that run along the top lid. There is always something soothingly relaxed about his gaze even when it shifts around the entire room, prying into the minds of others. He tends to squint a lot, a practice picked up from reading and writing music for so long at once, which adds a slightly harder edge to the soft colors in his eyes.
[ THE HAIR ]: The general flat dark brown of his hair gains different highlights depending on the lighting, so it's next to impossible to tell the shade of brown for sure, but is a shade or two lighter than Isabelle's. The length varies depending on how the interval length between he cuts his hair, which he doesn't trust anyone else with after his mother hired a bad hairdresser what cut it way too short right before a family photograph. It usually falls over his ears and down around the back of his neck in messy locks. His bangs come to just above his eyebrows in some areas and hang down below them in others. Whenever he is stressed or really concentrated, Isaac shoves his fingers through the front of his hairline in a way that looks like he is supporting his forehead with his palm. This keeps his hair in a nice beadhead phase the whole day. His mother hates when his hair is like this saying it looks 'unruly and unprofessional' so he is usually forced to cut and brush it before he has recitals or concerts. The other habit he has in regards to his hair is tugging on and playing with the patch of hair just above and in front of his left ear, but this only happens sometimes when he is daydreaming or completely happy about something.
[ THE SMILE ]: His smile varies depending on the circumstance, but is most often a one-sided grin with a touch of smirk to it. But no matter the smile, dimples appear in his cheeks, and he couldn't get rid of them if he wanted. His upper lip is a tad more full than he would like for it to be, but there isn't too much he can do about it, so the self-consciousness of that feature died away some time ago. He takes immaculate care of his teeth and figures that as long as he smokes, he might as well try to keep his teeth healthy.
[ THE OTHER FACIAL STUFF ]: His face is made up of mostly very masculine feature. A straight nose set in the middle of his face with the slightest ridge on it and a angular strong jawline make up two of those manly facial features. A very small amount of stubble may appear along his jaw if he forgets to shave for a day or two, but he generally dislikes facial hair.

[ THE BUILD ]: When Isaac was a little younger he fell into the 'fit due to lack of fat' category. Now that he has grown up, he still hasn't put on too much fat since he doesn't really like to eat a lot and only really eats when he is hungry, but he has put on some muscle mass. When he needs time to think, he will sometimes exercise, especially run, giving his body a lean toned shape.
[ THE HEIGHT ]: 6 feet 2 inches
[ THE WEIGHT ]:152lbs
[ THE POSTURE ]: After years of playing piano, his back actually begins to ache a little if he slouches for too long at one time, so his posture is kept upright with his shoulders generally relaxed a little. When working on something, he typically leans forward to rest his head in his palm, letting his elbow and the table support his weight. His movement is usually lax and easygoing but moves to being a bit more random and sporadic when he has had a bit too much to drink.

[ THE CLOTHING ]: Pretty much anything goes with Isaac's wardrobe, though he loves dressing in casual-nice clothing. He can most often be seen walking around in pants of the jeans and slacks varieties and a dress shirt or snug, plain tshirt, often accompanied by a loose tie or vest. The coloring of these tend to revolve around grayscale and earthy tones, ie blue, brown, and green. On top of his normal clothing, he will sometimes add hats or suspenders or something of the sort, all of which, much like his sister, come from a mix of designer brands and vintage stores. He also has a pair of old reading glasses (<--link) he will sometimes wear when compose so he doesn't strain his eyes as much.
[ THE HYGIENE ]: Isaac showers every morning and can't understand why other people don't. Other than his smoking habit and drinking, he is a fairly healthy person, not really liking sweets and foods with heavy grease, and generally taking good care of his body. He gave up biting his nails for smoking and has always had clean, clear skin.

FAMILY: HATE TO LOVE 'EM?

[ THE PARENTS ]: Eleanor Blair Cauldine, 43, housewife. James "Jim" robert Cauldine, 48, former lawyer, senator. Isaac generally gets along with his parents, but ignores them a lot of the time, not wanting to deal with their high expectations and dissapointment. He gets along better with his father simply because he is more professional than his mother. But basically, they gave him life, he gives them a kid with accomplishments.
[ THE SIBLINGS ]: Isabelle Cauldine, twin, 6th year. They get along and love each other, but are siblings and ones that have spend most moments of their life together, so they don't always get along.
[ OTHER IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIPS ]: Much-beloved cousins of the same age Albert and Sophie, grandmother heiress to a massive oil fortune, uncle high-profile case lawyer in New York.
[ IMPORTANT ANCESTRY ]: Apparently, their family descended from some French people who were a pretty big deal. Isaac has always wanted to live in Paris for a while, but never really mentions it because of his sister's hatred of the French, which he never completely understood.
