HEIGHT AND WEIGHT: 6 foot 3 inches, 150 pounds
DESCRIPTION: Basil is a tall, pale, lanky fellow who isn't very toned. His hair is kept semi-short though most of the time it can be found combed, there are instances where it is tousled or unkempt. Those occurrences happen when he is in deep thought or something weighs heavily on his mind. When these things happen he can also be seen unshaven. His nose is sharp, lips thin and eyes rather wide. It gives him a sort of mouse-ish appearance. He generally dresses really nicely, in suits with a tie if he is lecturing or teaching. But if he is just around the house he generally wears a house coat and slippers, you can generally tell if he was planning on doing something that day if he is wearing this. But don't let that fool you, he will change in a moments notice.
He wears glasses only when he needs to read.
PERSONALITY:
Basil is your run of the mill moody man. He can have his days where he is fun and chipper, then like everyone else fall victum to irritableness and the sense of being down. He won't talk much when this happens, and just lounges around in his pajamas, generally playing the violin. You have to be watch out because he does play the violin to help him when he is in thought. If he is not in thought and you ask him something while he is playing he may snap at you. Though this occurs out of random days of the month, the man is pretty dramatic and loves to emphasize every little thing. In all honesty, he likes attention and being dramatic helps him get a little extra more. This includes getting randomly excited and knocking down what is ever in his way if he finally has figured something out. He does things on impulse and hardly thinks of others or how others will feel if he does it, for instance, shooting at pillows to see the mark on a fired bullet. All in the name of science correct?
Basil is brillian, he is a chemistry teacher after all and the great mouse detective is his character. Let's just say he has smarts. Along with smarts can come with sarcasm or him being a smarty pants, but thats only if he is in an irritable mood (most of the time). All in all he is an opinionated man and says exactly how he feels or what he sees. Along with being opinionated, or being brilliant, the man is pretty brave. He's not cautious at all and tries to defend others if they are in need (mostly hurting the other with his words and witt). He has an observant nature (that he got from his father and the great mouse detective) that he uses a lot, especially when the detective has him working a case.
When it comes to woman, Basil is a gentleman, a charmer and rather polite. However, Basil is a loner and there for he doesn't look for relationships romantically. Though he can't resist a woman who plays hard to get.
HOMETOWN: London, England
FAMILY MEMBERS:
Irene Elizabeth Adler-Darcey Mother, Deceased
Henry Holmes Darcey Father. Deceased
HISTORY: Basil was born to Irene and Henry Darcey in London, England. His father was a detective for the local police station while his mother chose to stay at home. Of course this made him more connected with his mother then his father. When he was younger he really didn't see his father a lot. He loved his father but their relationship really wasn't where it should be. It was little things that made it this way, for instance when he was older, he didn't really care for his father's job. His father was rather upset by this when he saw Basil pull away from his job, he did want him to carry it on in some way. After all it was his only son and you would think Basil would like it to get closer to his father. But he just wouldn't have any of it.
But Basil helped his mother out when he was little, cooking and such. This was only because his father never seemed to be absorbed in a case. When Basil was seven his mother died rather tragically, a vengeful act from someone his father put away. This turned his father into over protective mode and they moved into a new flat. Her name was Miss Perkins, and though Basil persisted at first. He soon warmed up to her. His father was just happy that someone was there for him. When Basil was old enough he began to fancy the violin and took lessons. This actually pleased his father because he himself enjoyed the violin. It helped for him to get his feelings out to help him think things out, it was soothing.
In highschool, Basil became interested in Chemistry. Something about the way chemicals reacted with certain matter or the way matter reacts with other matter just fascinated him. He didn't know exactly then that he wanted to be a Chemistry professor but he knew that he wanted to do something that involved it. He liked that he was good at something else and not just playing the violin.
One night he heard his father pacing in the study, followed by papers and random trinkets crashing to the floor. Worried, Basil waited in the hall until he heard his father go to his room. Walking into the room he saw papers, pens, glasses, even a picture of his mother on the floor. The only thing on his desk was a file of information. He seemed to be working on a case that he just couldn't figure out, from what Basil understood. Suddenly he had the urge to help him figure it out, so much so that his hands began to twitch until he picked up a pen and began making links between the information. When he was finished finding the relationships he threw the pen down and stared at his hand wide eyed, unsure of what just happened. The next morning he got a letter to go to Memory, Maine. Basil didn't think anything of it, til a week later his father had another case. Suddenly a voice with an English accent whispered to him, telling him to go into his father's study and check it out. This scared him half to death because it seemed like it was coming from his own head. Within the month he was heading to Maine.
Basil came to Maine in the middle of Highschool, graduating from Harmony College, where he learned to awaken the mouse detective, and soon becoming a Chemistry Professor there. Though he knows he can now leave, he has been here ever sense, waiting for Dawson and Rattigan.
DISNEY CHARACTER: Basil of Baker Street
ABILITIES/ATTRIBUTES: Impulsive, Quick Wit, Great at Chemistry, Observant, and ability to turn into a mouse while understanding other animals.
DESCRIPTION: Basil and well Basil seem to get along very well together. It's probably because they are so much alike. They both enjoy the violin, especially playing it when in thought or to relax. Another great love they share is chemistry, Basil finds him useful when it comes to teaching. He seems to know more about it, which can get annoying when he corrects him in his head. The Detective's impulsive behavior seems to Basil a lot considering he always wants to get up and go.
What he can't stand is his obsessive need to get Rattigan and to solve mysteries. His father was the detective not him, and he has no idea who Rattigan even is, though the Mouse Detective knows and tells him. But he tries to solve and find mysteries to have the other Basil shut up about it.
YOUR NAME: Tiff

YOUR RP EXPERIENCE: 5 or 6 years
YOUR SAMPLE: From a different site
The clicking of pumps could be heard as Tinsel made her way out of the movie theater, catching a late showing of a Bond flick, Octopussy to be exact. Stuffing her long hands into the pockets of her black leather jacket, Tinsel moved her shoulders up, trying to stay warm. It was currently two in the morning and TJ was roaming the streets of New Jersey. She, herself was being a little naughty too, staying out very late instead of being at the Bureau. But hey it was James Bond, like she was going to miss it and besides it wasn't like she was on the roster for anything tomorrow. That she knew of. She still had to get a feel for New Jersey and check it out more, still needing to get comfortable with it. She had never been here before so she was of course going to take a look around.
Tinsel sighed heavily as she made her way to the bus stop, considering she got down here by that. She wasn't sure if a bus was actually going to be coming out this late and she probably should have checked but oh well. A few screams made her stop dead in her tracks as she looked around to hear a few woman screaming monster and running, followed by a bellowing of random sentences and clanking of glass. Her eye brow arched a little as she soon took in a deep breath "Oh great.." she spoke with a hint of nervousness in her voice. Her hands left her pockets as she put them at her sides, ready to grab her gun if she needed it.
Cautiously, Tinsel turned the corner and saw a huge red mass laying on the bus bench. Tinsel squinted her eyes and tilted her head as she tried to figure out exactly what she was seeing, her steps grew slower with each inch. Biting her bottom lip she was able to make out that it was some sort of man in a trench coat. "Uhhh" was all that was able to come out of her mouth as she stopped infront of him and stared down at him.
The shy girl, swallowed harshly and gently reached out to him about to tap him, but soon decided against it."H-Hellboy?" she asked more of a question to make sure it was him. She had heard his name around the Bureau, and saw the conspiracies on TV. But she of course didn't have the pleasure of meeting the fellow yet.
Her attire was that of a worn black leather jacket, a pair of bootcut jeans, black open-toed pumps, a black t-shirt with The Rolling Stones logo on it and a green scarf wrapped around her neck. This time Tinsel decided to leave her dark chocolate hair down. Her hand reached up as she gently brushed some of her side bangs out of her face.
