Biography
Origination
Isaac comes from an alternate universe, the year 2019[3], he has described his home world negatively several times. In THE TELL-TALE HEART!, he reveals that he is an only child and just got out of high school. He also seems to have had a bad relationship with his family. He was a regular costumer of a drug dealer by the name of Longbags, the two also apparently go "way back." Isaac was also a YouTuber in his own world where he runs a gaming channel.[3]
Takeover
- "We tried to stop it. But it's already too late."
- ―Text following Isaac's first appearance in SNAP OUT OF IT!
Isaac's first appearance.
After a multiple personality disorder caused by the simple snap of the fingers, Jesse Ridgway is recommended to a wizard in Connecticut as per the request of Larry Abraham.[4]
The wizard stated "the amount of personalities you snap into on a regular basis is incredibly dangerous and if continued, might go very wrong."[5]
Jesse disregards this, however, and goes back home. He tells his Juggies that he's fine and in control, before telling them he and them "need to talk". This prompts him to go down into the basement and into the former fan mail room closet.
He looks into the mirror, as he does so however, Jesse inside the mirror snaps his fingers. The character, Tony Trevorelli, tells him to stop snapping as he and the other characters are concerned. If he snaps one more time, an evil force could find its way to the surface, and that Jesse wouldn't be able to go back.
Jesse, not listening to any of this, snaps to get rid of Tony. However, he then finds himself inside the mirror, as the now Isaac as Jesse, walks out, leaving the real Jesse inside the mirror in the former fan mail closet room.[6]
Development
At first, nothing was particularly noticeable wrong with "Jesse's" behavior, behind the scenes of the Psycho Series have now commenced and, at first, nothing is out of the ordinary.
This changes by I'm Leaving Youtube... *NOT CLICKBAIT* with the appearance of the beanie, however in yellow form, in contrast to his dark red form which first appears in PSYCHO DAD BUSTS DOWN DOOR BTS!. The change in color could very well be due to his change in mindset, causing him to switch from good to evil. Despite the unclear meaning, it's evident that the beanie has some sort of significance.
After time, Isaac decides to make changes to his physical body. This includes a tattoo, dyed hair, a piercing, and a change of attire. The progression of depression and worthlessness is subtle, with Isaac at first seemingly Jesse Ridgway no doubt. As the videos go on, he develops more as an unstable and depressed individual, capable of kidnapping and a murder attempt.
Abuse of Substance
Isaac's dealer, Longbags.
A main staple in Isaac's character is his alcoholism and substance abuse. Isaac is first seen drinking beer while visiting Larry Abraham[7]. Isaac continues drinking more frequently as the videos progress. He eventually starts consuming prescription pills. After a failed suicide attempt[8], Isaac starts snorting cocaine[9].
Personality
- "Fun times!..."
- ―Isaac's catchphrase
Rude, selfish, impulsive and quite literally the epitome of evil, Isaac is a drinker[10], drug user[11], smoker[12], self harming[13], depressed and suicidal individual.[14][15] This incarnation of Jesse Ridgway is the darkest we've seen yet.
Despite these disturbing attributes to his character, he has opened up immensely since his first appearance. He has become somewhat empathetic towards his custodian, Jesse Ridgway, and caring towards Jesse's girlfriend and brother. However, since his identity was exposed in JEFFREY FINDS THE MIRROR!, Isaac takes an even darker path by pointing a gun at Jesse Ridgway's parents and keeping his mother hostage. He also stabs his longtime friend Longbags.
Name Theories
Jesse tweets that his real name is "Jake"
- Isaac's real name was speculated to be Jake, as this Tweet from January from Jesse Ridgway himself stated that his name is Jake. However, this was posted before Isaac even had appeared, so it could very well just simply be a joke.
Isaac said that his name was not Jake on a Twitch stream on May 22nd, 2017.
Jesse shows a sign saying his name is "Daniel Alton," from the 2nd "MONOTONE" teaser
- Some Juggies believe the 2017 series to be the seemingly cancelled "MONOTONE" series that got two teasers. In the second teaser, Jesse holds a sign saying "My Name is... Daniel Alton."
Isaac said that his name was not Daniel Alton on a Twitch stream on May 22nd, 2017.
In my world is crumbling., Isaac revealed his real name, by saying "My name is not Jesse. My name is Isaac."
