Template:Hybrid/Isabel Evans

Isabel Evans (previously Evans-Ramirez) is an alien-human hybrid like her brother Max Evans and best friend Michael Guerin. She and Max were found as six-year-old children wandering in the desert by Philip and Diane Evans, who adopted them. She had a relationship with Alex Whitman in season one and again in season two, but the relationship never really got off the ground in season one before her "destiny" was revealed. Just as she and Alex started over in season two, Alex was killed. She was devastated by Alex's death, having a couple of dreams about him (one in which she admitted she loved him), but moved on to marry Jesse Ramirez in season three. She and her mother shared a close relationship although, it was strained when Isabel decided to marry Jesse. Over the years, Isabel's relationships with Max and Michael were also put under pressure. She became notably good friends with Kyle Valenti and saw his father Sheriff Jim Valenti as a father figure.

Characteristics

Isabel is a very visible, popular girl at school. She hides her kind side beneath a front of haughtiness and cold unfeeling—she is the perfect, unknowable, unobtainable beauty. On the outside, she is the most outgoing of the three hybrids and blends in with the human society with ease. While Michael is a rebellious loner and Max is shy and quiet, she is an active participant in social activities and altogether a very confident person. However, deep down she craves for stability and security, longing to fit in and be a "normal" girl like Liz and Maria are.

Biography

Season One

When Isabel learns that her brother Max healed Liz Parker during an altercation between two men in the Crashdown Cafe, and later told her about his, Isabel's and Michael's alien origins, she is very angry and never completely forgives him for it.

At first, Isabel is hostile towards the humans who know her secret, but this is because she is afraid of the power they suddenly hold over her. Maria DeLuca, the best friend of Liz, makes her with the new alien-are-among-us-knowledge rather nervous. Isabel is concerned and she has large fear that Maria could betray them. Therefore she walks into Maria's dreams to find out more. Maria earns Isabel's trust when she refuses to tell Sheriff Valenti Isabel's true identity. She, Liz and Maria form bonds of friendship over the following year. It starts when Isabel helps Maria at the Crashdown Café when she is in a sticky situation.

In the episode "Heat Wave" Isabel goes into Alex's dreams one night and sees the two of them dancing together. After that she starts to wonder if Alex can be trusted with their secret. She almost tells him at a party, but despite his infatuation with her Alex mistakes her tentative conversation about trust as a sexual advance, which hurts her.

When Alex and Liz are arrested by Sheriff Valenti after attending an illegal party, Alex is asking Liz what is going on. He feels left out. Isabel tells Max that she thinks they should have told Alex the truth. Max is surprised at her change in attitude towards Alex. Alex only believes when Isabel shows him some of her abilities. Over the following episodes, Isabel grows closer to Alex, but rebuffs his romantic advances because she is afraid of opening up to someone.

Isabel and Michael share a very close friendship, almost bordering on the brother/sister bond she has with Max. While she is often stuck between Max and Michael's extremely different viewpoints on the world, she respects Max's desire for control and caution while understanding Michael's need to find out where they come from. She is fiercely protective of Michael when he falls seriously ill and shows her care for him in his vision by kissing his cheek and hugging him. She also helps him one night when he believes he can send a signal to the fourth alien, and is genuinely afraid for him when it's revealed that Hank, Michael's foster father, has been beating him.

An essential point in their relationship comes when the two begin to have strange, erotic dreams about one another. At one point they think she might even be pregnant with his child through some alien dream connection.  Isabel is confused and frightened by this: she's always seen Michael as her brother/best friend. They seem to reject this concept, but it throws both off balance. They are still struggling with this as the first season comes to a close.

Isabel is very close to her mother, and hates lying to her about who she really is. She believes that her mother's love for her and Max is unconditional, and is desperate to tell her the truth. However, both Max and Michael are firmly unwilling to let an adult in on the secret. Even when Diane Evans pleads with Max to tell her the truth, he will not, and this breaks Isabel's heart when she finds out.

Isabel, as well as being his sister, is also Max's friend and confidant. She often reminds Max of all sides of an argument when it comes to his relationship with Liz. In some ways, she encourages him; in other ways, she holds him back. Though she relies heavily on him as leader and brother, he can also lean on her when he needs to. His capture and torture terrify Isabel.

As the season progresses, Isabel begins to put aside her ice-queen personality in favor of the inner Isabel. She also becomes a much stronger personality—she uses her strength to help rescue Max from the White Room, and as the season ends, it's clear that Isabel is growing up into a strong, fearsome woman, while still retaining her caring, sweet inner self.

Season Two
