Here’s what I’ve learnt so far about the history of Isley the Improportionate. To quote the book of Origins:

I was thinking he may see all lands that was once eldarin as being rightfully belonging to the eldarin, and the current occupiers as uspurpers, and the eldarin leaders as weak and not taking what should be theres…

This description was supplied by the local Tavern owner, Hesiod the Uncooth, talking about Isley, then known as Isley the Local.   Needless to say this barely covers the strange, heroic past of Isley.

Isley himself is only 25.  Although he has already reached manhood by human standards, and is physically mature, by Eladrin standards he has a lot ahead of him.  As a child Isley took a great interest in the stories of the Eladrins past and origins.  He would spend time pestering elders or perusing books under the disapproving eye of his Father.  What fascinated him the most was the War of the Dragonborn, almost 1000 years ago. 

He developed a great pride for Eladrin kind, and was especially proud of their victory in that monumentous war.  Unfortunately Isley couldn’t help but notice the disparity between the Eladrin’s status in the world now, and their previous glory.  Why hadn’t they faught as valiantly against the encrouching Imperium as they had against the draconic forces?  Why didn’t they even seem bothered by their place in the world now?

A fire burned deep within him and he decided that one day he would emulate those great heroes he had read about so often.  When the orks took the coast of Rhudgecloth he chose to stay and fight rather than retreat with the rest of the Eladrin defenders.  He has decided now to find glory for the Eladrin race, although at the same time, he’s unsure about his place in his Hometown after that battle.

One more note.  He’s still rather young by Eladrin standards, and when he first met Deadweight he gave his name as Isley of the Apricots (rather than revealing his actual home), but changed that frequently afterwards.  Deadweight siezed this slip and ruthlessly applies suffixes to Isley as they come to mind.
