He has had a recently growing greed due to his success in the criminal underworld of Vale however and his developed a taste for the finer things in life despite his rather poor upbringing. Despite the fact he is faunus, Basil is not particularly bothered by the high tension between the humans and faunus, mainly because he wears his mask at almost all times so very few people question his race and his mindset that "somebody needs to take the fall". Bio: 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. 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 lone hunter brought it down. Basil thanked the huntsman and quickly checked on his father, however he realized he was bleeding out. With no medicine or bandages to help him Basil was forced to watch as his father bled out. Thrown into complete shock by the events that occurred, Basil simply left his old home without a word. This also caused a huge personality change in Basil, he no longer wanted to help people. Where had helping people got him up to then? Eventually Basil made his way to the main city of Vale after spending weeks travelling from town to town. Having little luck finding any jobs due to his race or his bitter attitude , he turned to crime. At first he only committed petty theft to gather enough food to survive, however gradually he began to realize his skills in medicine and chemistry could be put to less legitimate uses. Donning a plague doctor mask to hide his face and to allow him to safely work with his substances, eventually his work and success attracted the attention of local crime-lords who offered him additional protection along with a larger area of influence. While Basil used the goons more as guards, he also used them as sparring partners so he could refine his own fighting technique in the event his guards were eliminated. Eventually Basil began to complete more hands on tasks in his organisation, robbing stores and demanding money from people who could not afford to pay for Basil's narcotics anymore, this lead to the faunus gaining a hefty bounty on his head and Vale, although it is yet to be claimed by anyone. After the attack on Mistral by the Grimm and a call to arms to Beacon Fort, Basil decided it was time to exact his revenge on the Grimm. The faunus allowed his goons to protect his underworld monopoly while he was away, but told them they would pay with their lives if they allowed it to crumble. Now Basil made his way to Beacon Fort, hoping the authorities would swallow their pride for a time and that the do-gooders who had heard of him would not jump on him to collect his bounty.
