Isaac Grant

Sir Isaac Grant is a notable knight in his early 30's from The Jointed Provinces, having gained some renown from his actions in The Overreaching War. Sir Grant is played by Kevin Lam.

Early Life
Isaac was born just outside Cortesia in the slums. His mother passed away giving birth to him and his sister, Olivia. Isaac's father was quite the successful blacksmith before the death of his wife and Isaac's mother. Soon afterwards his father took to the bottle and slowly but sure got in deep with loan sharks. At the age of 9, Olivia was sold off to slavers to pay off their father's debt. The sight of Olivia kicking and screaming as she was being dragged off was seared into Isaac's memory and quite frequently haunts him.

With Olivia gone, Isaac had nobody. That is until he befriended a neighborhood boy named Jaren Ode, the son of an ex-mercenary. Jaren's father pitied Isaac and quickly began schooling the boys in the art of combat, knowing that without an education, the only way these boys would get out of the slums would be to join the military. Only after a few short months of training it was evident that Isaac had a knack for swordsmanship.

The Beginning of Fame and Glory
At age 14 Isaac participated in and won the dueling competition part of the Sapphire Tournament. He was then knighted and joined the military to further his training. At age 16, Isaac was put in charge of ten other young men, Jaren included. This group was intended to be used as a scouting operation in one of the final battles of the Overreaching War. Isaac's orders were to observe and report to the naval ship that was to land and engage the enemy camp. When the naval ship landed to receive Isaac's report, they came to find the enemy camp of roughly 125 men all but already slaughtered, with most of them being decapitated. Isaac and his ten were all but intact, if not a little beaten and bruised. This event is what gave Isaac his title, Knight of the Silent Song, and his ten became to be known as The Hollowed Children. Rumors of the superstitious began to spread that Isaac was favored by Artorias Dervish, for how else could he have overcome such odds? What actually happened that morning is unknown to many, excluding Isaac, The Hollowed Children, and a select few military notables.

Current Activites
Today Isaac is now residing in the capital, participating in tournaments from time to time to prove his mettle, and always keeping his ear to the ground in hopes of hearing any whispers that would lead to his sister.
