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!

My Dark Disquiet by Poets of the Fall

Night, the world, it's mine
With nobody else out here
It's time, run wild
And royally cavalier
To burn, ignite
I'd do it for so much less
When all is made clear
There is nothing else

And here we stand, the sweet
Arresting duality
And I come to
It's resin all over me
Will I awake
Will I get a ride with you
In this race of two

We're an endless stream of choices
We're the softest murmur of voices

Without names we're fantasising
Dancing like flames, mesmerising
My dark disquiet playing such eerie harmonies
Making waves and diving under
Lightning to the sound of thunder
My dark disquiet singing such haunting melodies

So white, so still, so bright
It's almost too painful now
I'm ready to fight
To run from the light

And here now comes the sweet
Corrupting reality
While now I'm free
Will I once cease to be
Will I awake
Will I get a ride with you
In this race of two

We are momentary masters
We're false kings and bastards

Without names we're fantasising
Dancing like flames, mesmerising
My dark disquiet playing such eerie harmonies
Making waves and diving under
Lightning to the sound of thunder
My dark disquiet singing such haunting melodies

We are marionettes by strings animated
Yet like lovers of strings liberated
We are marionettes by strings animated
Yet like lovers of strings liberated
(Without names we're fantasising)

Without names we're fantasising
Dancing like flames, mesmerising
My dark disquiet playing such eerie harmonies
Making waves and diving under
Lightning to the sound of thunder
My dark disquiet singing such haunting melodies

Brothers by blood separated
Marionettes animated
Lovers of strings liberated
Brothers by blood separated
Marionettes animated
Lovers of strings liberated

Concrete Jungle by Bad Omens

Can you see yourself
Through the bruises when the makeup melts?
In the dark when all the powers out?
Everybody talks and gets around

When the money talks
Do you think it gets the point across?
It's a burning coal you're walking on
And in a second, all the pain is gone

I said, "It's enough"
I begged and I ran in circles
I climbed to the sun
And fell in a concrete jungle
I said, "It's done"
You never know if you'll get what you wish for
I climbed to the sun
And I fell
I fell, in a concrete jungle

The coyotes cry
And the sirens pass and harmonize
Fires starting every day and night
Burn around us while we're trapped inside

Wouldn't it be nice
To play the game without a crooked die
In a world where you don't have to hide?
You don't have to live in a disguise

I said, "It's enough"
I begged and I ran in circles
I climbed to the sun
And fell in a concrete jungle
I said, "It's done"
You never know if you'll get what you wish for
I climbed to the sun
And I fell
I fell, in a concrete jungle
And I'm the fucking king

I want things that money can't buy
The price is pain to make this right
And I could buy a thousand lives
So you can try to kill me, but I can't fucking die
Die

I said it's enough
I begged and I ran in circles
I climbed to the sun
And fell in a concrete jungle
I said it's done
You never know if you'll get what you wish for
I climbed to the sun
And I fell
I fell, in a concrete jungle
In a concrete jungle
And I'm the fucking king

К чёрту любовь (To Hell With Love) by Loboda

Я с закрытыми глазами, (My eyes closed,)
прямо в пропасть между нами (I fall into the abyss between us.)
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...)

А может к чёрту любовь? (Maybe to hell with love?)
Всё понимаю, но я опять впускаю тебя! (I get it, really, but I'm falling in love with you again!)
А может к чёрту любовь? (Maybe to hell with love?)
Всё хорошо, ты держись (It's all good, stay strong.)
Раздевайся, ложись, раз пришёл! (Undress and lie down since you came!)

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! (I get it, really, but I'm falling in love with you again!)
А может к чёрту любовь? (Maybe to hell with love?)
Всё хорошо, ты держись (It's all good, stay strong.)
Раздевайся, ложись, раз пришёл! (Undress and lie down since you came!)
Ты держись (stay strong.)
Раздевайся, ложись, раз пришёл! (Undress and lie down since you came!)


Просто вышло так Не важно с кем ты, где ты, как! (It just so happened that I don't know how, with who, or where you are!)
И сколько, поцелуев на твоих губах (And how many kisses are on your lips...)
Сколько же ночей с ума сходила в темноте (For so many dark nights I was going crazy over you)
Но а теперь я говорю тебе (But today I'm telling you)


А может к чёрту любовь? (Maybe to hell with love?)
Всё понимаю, но я опять впускаю тебя! (I get it, really, but I'm falling in love with you again!)
А может к чёрту любовь? (Maybe to hell with love?)
Всё хорошо, ты держись (It's all good, stay strong.)
Раздевайся, ложись, раз пришёл! (Undress and lie down since you came!)
Раз пришёл! Раз пришёл... (Since you came! Since you came...)

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.
