3)Characteristics

Background: Basil was born in a small town north of Vale, he was raised by his father, Vert Plagas, and his mother, Violet Plagas. His father taught him everything he knew about medicine and semblances ( at this time Basil's was a healing aura that he emitted whenever he was happy and the ability to teleport anywhere the sun was directly shining in a 100 metre radius). By the time he was 14 he took over his father's work as the town's only doctor. A few weeks after Basil took over his father's work the village was attacked by a roaming group of beowolves. They destroyed everything, very few of the townsfolk knew how to fight effectively and were slaughtered. Basil's mother was killed quickly, however the beowolves slashed at his father's thigh before a despatched team of huntsman brought it down. Basil thanked the huntsman and quickly checked on his father, however he realised he was bleeding out. With no medicine or bandages to help him Basil was forced to watch as his father bled out. This ignited a new hatred and passion in Basil. To hunt Grimm and anything that commits atrocities like this to the ends of the earth,he also became incredibly bitter and cold, shutting anyone out who tried to help him cope with his situation.

With Basil's new found hatred and bitter feelings he quickly realised his semblance had changed it had complete reversed, infecting his enemies temporarily with terrible afflictions and being able to fade into the shadows temporarily becoming a cloud of mist until he arrived at his destination. He used his newfound strengths to help him get into Signal academy Basil ,now fueled with anger and bitterness quickly advanced through Signal, using his new found offensive semblance to defeat most physical challenges and his intellect to breeze through tests. While he struggled with creating his weapons he eventually created an effective set of weapons after many attempts and called them "The Bone Sifters "

Personality: Cold/bitter, intelligent, sarcastic,cunning, isolates himself from allies and friends ( he will make friends but he'll usually not reveal very much to them), dignified ( doesn't mind losing or appeasing people).

Likes: creating medicine, reading, fencing,sparring.

Dislikes: Grimm, Anarchists, Repetitive music, bright lights.

a)

Weapons Name: The Bone Sifters

Wielder: Basil

Type: Sword and Sickle Pistol ( SaSP)

Short Description: *Quoting from OW thread because I have no idea how I can link the exact post*  Weapon Derivation: Combination of Ruby's scythe(only smaller) and Lie's SMG/knives

 Holstered/Inactive Form:  A pair of small cubes, similar in looks to a phone with a small, sharp blade sticking out of the bottom left part of the cube.  Form 1: sickle and sword  Form 2: sword and pistol  Dust Capacity: Fire dust able to be used as  incendiary rounds and ice dust can be used as freezing bullets

 Usage: User slips in and out of combat targeting  pressure points and extremities on larger enemies and overwhelming enemies with a combination of ( Basil's in this case) semblance, the sword and pistol form sickle.  Planned/Possible Upgrades:  Poison tipped blades, upgrading pistols to SMGs  Notes: the metal the blade is made from is springsteel, pistol is silenced.

b) Semblance Name: Plague warning

User: Basil

Short Description: manipulates aura so the user emits a cloud of fog which, if it touches an enemy, will temporarily give them an affliction/disease. The user can also turn into a cloud of fog themselves and reform in a dark area. This can be manipulated to avoid damage by becoming a cloud of fog and instantly reappearing in the same place when fighting in a dark area.

Visual effect: A pale green mist rolling along the ground and gradually rising as a fight continues

Type: Aural/physical Purpose: Utility

Range: Long ( mist form able to move anywhere in the users vision from where they transformed, aura keeps expanding until about 10 metres away from the user)

Other limitations:

Passive ability(s) (if any): aura gives of a disease ridden fog when in combat, the mist is less effective on stronger enemies as it, at best, makes them erupt into a fit of coughing, only weak Grimm are effected and are only effected for a few seconds. Afflictions wear off I'd the opponent doesn't reenter the fog after a few minutes.

Active ability(s) (if any): User can transform into a cloud of fog and reappear in a dark area nearby. Area must be dark, must be in the users vision before moving.

Dust interaction :fire & ice - fire will cause an eruption of fire to occur when the user leaves mist form while the ice causes the users area to slow down opponents as well as give them a disease

Notes: This is a corrupted version of Basil's old semblance, this occurred after a huge personality change weaker enemies tend to get much worse afflictions such as severe arthritis or extreme depression while stronger enemies get things such as a fit of coughs or become slightly tired.

c) Combat Info

Class/Position: Rouge/DPS

Landing Strategy: Before landing quickly transform into a fog cloud an reappear after landing ( can become a fog cloud in light but he is unable to move by himself.

Fighting Style: Weaving in and out of combat picking off weaker enemies with his aura and sickle or waiting for an opportunity to grab and stab stronger opponents with his sickle and sword.
