Basil

Roleplay Hooks Hedonist – This is a nice way of saying that Basil is a slut and a partier. He likes sensation, will try almost anything once, and will flirt with everyone. Therapist – His day job is as a therapist, seeing his patients through teleconference video calls from his apartment. Russian – He was born and raised in Russia until the age of ten, and speaks Russian fluently. Goth – This is pretty obvious given his appearance. Yet Basil is only in it for the aesthetic, not the oftentimes somber, nihilistic philosophy. Hockey Fan – He’s from Michigan, so obviously LET’S GO RED WINGS!

И покорно вниз до дна, (And obediently fall to bottom;) в чём, скажи, моя вина? (Tell me, what am I guilty of?) Кто же мы теперь друг другу? (Who are we to each other now?) Ложь, звонки и всё по кругу (Lies, phone calls, and then it starts again.) Притворяюсь будто я, больше не люблю тебя. (And I pretend as if I don't love you.) Не люблю... (Don't love you...)

Полночь, кофе, сигареты - (Midnight, coffee, cigarettes - ) Я не знаю с кем ты, где ты (I don't know with whom and where you are.) Ранит и сбивает с ног, (Jealousy wounds me and throws me down,) ревность как электрошок (like an electric shock.) Сердце может возвращаю, (Maybe I'm giving back your heart) не могу ходить по краю (I can't walk on the edge.) Как же мне тебя забыть? (How can I forget you now?) Взять, стереть и разлюбить? (How can I take you, erase you, and stop loving you?) Разлюбить... (Stop loving you...) А может к чёрту любовь? (Maybe to hell with love?) Всё понимаю, но я опять влюбляюсь в тебя!

Peek Behind The Curtain Leave closed if you would rather discover these things IC. Background The son of a Russian Black Fury and a human man, Basil’s early life was one of abandonment, neglect, and travail in an orphanage in St. Petersburg. Adopted by an American couple in Michigan, he was found to be too difficult and was disowned and committed to an institution. He would have languished there if he wasn’t found and rescued by a local Children of Gaia pack. There he flourished, experienced his first change, and was accepted. He’s decided to try and help people who hurt like he used to, and is a therapist. While he is Nonbinary, he uses He/Him pronouns to avoid causing conflict with any local Black Fury tribe members, who will notice the family resemblance and may take issue with his identity. Sphere "Basil Brooks, Cliath Children of Gaia, Wave-On-Shore, Galliard, formerly Sept of the Shining Island." Human Name: Basil Brooks Rite Name: Wave-On-Shore Moon: Galliard Tribe: Children of Gaia (Black Fury by birth) Camp: Servant of the Unicorn Vasiliy Basil (Vasiliy) Brooks is a system that has DID / Multiple Personality Disorder. His two alters are Basil and Vasiliy. Basil is the kind and compassionate aspect, and Vasiliy is the aspect that protects them from harm, and has the same worldview (for the most part) as any Black Fury. Vasiliy resulted from years of trauma and abuse suffered as a child in Russia and then with his foster parents in the United States. Basil was able to take primary control, with Vasiliy's consent, once they were adopted into the Children of Gaia pack and finally felt safe enough. As they have lived and settled into their new life in LA, Basil and Vasiliy are getting along much better and are rarely at odds with each other anymore.
