Essential Plot points: If anyone was going to ‘run away to the circus’, it’s Isidore. He’s spent his entire life pretending to be ‘good boy’ who does whatever ‘daddy tells him’ and being ‘the apple of mummy’s eye’. But now he’s at the side show and before he’s stepped into the door, he’s vowed that he won’t leave the same way he came in. However, Isidore is an entitled brat, mixed signals have turned him into a monster (doted on by mummy and emotionally abused and screamed at by daddy), Isidore thinks he ‘deserves the world’, because of what he’s endured…and that turns him into a horrible person towards the end of the game.
Performance:
Isidore presents as a most distinguished gentleman from a regency romance novel, though he isn’t exactly who he seems. While he may appear pompous and somewhat silly at first, it quickly becomes apparent that this is a front he uses to hide his "true self" and his emotional insecurities and to lessen the impact of his problematic behaviour. Isidore goes through many changes within the span of the game, both physically and mentally. Isidore requires a lot of stretch in his performance as he can be extremely possessive and manipulative, hysterical and desperate, and even emotionally vulnerable.

“DON’T YOU START! LISTEN, ALDORA, GIVE IT TO ME NOW! YOU’RE IN NO POSITION TO SAY ‘NO’ TO ME!”
“...Well, it doesn’t matter. You’ll understand when you join the side show too.”
