Sheriff Isaak

Sheriff Isaak is the sheriff of the town of Refuge. He also serves as Town Elder, Mayor, and lives in the large Manor at the end of Main Street.

Early Life
Isaak used to work in the mines with Cassidy and 24 others.

Isaak's daddy (named Roswell) was a safety inspector for mines operating all throughout the northern counties of the Sword Coast, and, as you might imagine, that made for a very cautious upbringing for himself and his kin. Every bit of wisdom Isaak's old man passed on to him dealt with how to avoid the dangers of the world outside his cottage’s doors, how to evade bandits and ward off hungry beasts in the wilds and how to prevent accidental hazards in the home, stuff like that.

The Cup
Nothing prepared him for the cup.

From the moment Isaak' saw it, he knew there was nothing he wouldn’t do to get that cup, he just didn’t know why. He trusted himself to resist that temptation, to put it back toward the back of his mind, to focus on the hard work of bringing this diamond mine back to life, and today I faltered--just for a moment--and I ruined three lives in the process.

Isaak killed Jack. They were looking for June in the mines together--she’s want to get lost in the mines--and he could just tell he had it on him. That cup had a tight grip on his guts, he could feel it through a six foot-thick lead wall, and he did it as quickly as he could, as cowardly as he could, he pushed him, over the edge of Shaft B.

As Jackfell, he turned to face Isaak, and Jack shouted his last word. It was a spell, that he flung in Isaak's direction, and in that moment, just after dooming him, Isaak prayed it was some kind of killing curse.

But he missed. It flew over Isaak's head as he sank into the black below.

And when Isaak looked behind him, he saw the cup in June’s hands. She grabbed it right where Jack dropped it. She was frozen in place, right there, by a barrier that he just cannot penetrate, shielded by a power that he craved enough to kill for. There was nothing he could do to get her out of that state.

He then figured out what Jack’s last spell was. Isaak met it, just on the outskirts of town. He conjured an earth elemental, a guardian to protect June, protect all of Refuge in his absence.

Because he believes Refuge deserves a better guardian than himself. Isaak equipped the earth elemental with some gear, gave them a name--Roswell, for his dad--and set them on patrol, using the summoning spell’s command word (Junebug)

The Eleventh Hour
At first, not much is known about Sheriff Isaak, other than his job title. While in the jail, the boys learn from Cassidy that he is human, he lives in the large, two story manor in town, and that he’s also the mayor and the town elder. Cassidy also calls him a "good dude." They also learn from Roswell that he was also the only person to see the figure in the red robe.

The boys later learn from Ren that Sheriff Isaak took over after the last Elder, Jack, died, and that some preferred Jack over Isaak, but that she thinks Isaak is doing his best. She also calls him a “sourpuss,” implying that he brings down The Davy Lamp’s “fun, flirty atmosphere.”

During the bank heist, Taako learns through Isaak's journal that, under the Temporal Chalice's lull, he had murdered Jack. Before he could take it for himself, June took the Chalice and bubbled herself, along with Refuge.

In order to atone for his murder of Jack, he decided to guard the bubbled up June, while also keeping the Chalice away from anyone else's grasp. The Tres Horny Boys and him would later have a scuffle in the quarry, which ended with Taako popping June's bubble with The Chance Lance.
