Isom (Avery Silman)

Introduction

I’ve trained my body to do things people like me shouldn’t be able to do. But unfortunately for me…flying ain’t one of them.”  - Isom (Avery Silman)

Catch Street! Avery Silman gave up being ISOM when tragedy struck, but he finds himself pulled back into action when he is the only one who dares to stand up against criminal Kingpin, Darren Fontaino!

Isom is anything but a typical hero. He's a serious and stern individual who prefers solitude over company. His confidence is palpable, and his patience for fooling around is nearly nonexistent. Despite growing up in the city, he possesses street smarts and common sense rather than a deep understanding of technology or gadgets.  

Isom's history is as intriguing as his personality. Born and raised in Florespark, he had a relatively ordinary childhood. However, his adult life was marked by numerous challenges. His parents instilled in him a sense of self-reliance. Avery owns several acres of land, grows his own food, and lives a self-sufficient life. He trades and sells with people who live outside the city, reinforcing his connection to the rural life he loves.  

Despite his strengths, Avery is not without weaknesses and his tendency to go rogue in team settings often lands him in trouble. He's not afraid to take on challenges, but his confidence leads him to bite off more than he can chew.  

Avery has a loving yet complex relationship with his younger sister, Altona, and a fondness for his niece, Vassie. His interactions with other characters, such as Jessica Newman, Darren Fontaino, and Cedric Gaucho, further enrich his narrative.
