History:
Isaac Starr was born into wealth and tragedy; the beloved first son of celebrated engineers Camelot and Lucretia Starr, the joy of his birth was tempered with the tragedy of his mother's passing, who died in labour. Promising his wife on her deathbed that their son would be happy for the rest of his days, Camelot ensured the boy wanted for nothing. Showing a prodigal talent for science, his father built him his own personal laboratory when he was just eight years old. Rumours of his skills swept the land, and universities from across the world came knocking at the door of the child genius.

But tragedy struck; Isaac's father died suddenly, and the estate passed into the hands of his salubrious, irresponsible brother, Mason. Isaac's father had hoped that the responsibility of taking on an estate and the welfare of his nephew would force his brother to straighten out; within a year, he had lost everything. Gone were Isaac's fineries and servents, dismantled was his precious laboratory; Mason Starr went into a debtor's prison, and Isaac Starr went to the poorhouse.

At the age of 21 he was discharged into employment, and left the poorhouse to hear that his uncle had died in prison. With no surviving relatives, the world seemed large and unfriendly to Isaac Starr. But by staggering chance, he was contacted by his late mother's remaining family, who it turned out had been searching for him for the best part of ten years. His mother had had some not-insubstantial savings of her own, given to her sister in the instruction that should her son ever find himself orphaned and destitute, the entire fortune would be his. Able to reclaim his birthright with his mother's legacy, Starr spent a number of years consolidating his position in society and settling his scurrilous uncle's debts before turning back to science, with which he had never fallen out of love.
