i’m gonna do them all bc i’m a dumbass that loves to share about their ocs ✨

basil linwood

born march 2, 2044 in ellsworth, maine. he moved to massachusetts in high school, where he met nora. 

nickname is “b,” since it’s generally easier and people won’t mispronounce it (pronounced: bazz-ul)

was a sniper in the army before he retired and became a school teacher, which he had initially gone to school for. he was a 4th grade social studies teacher when the bombs dropped

REALLY loves comics and radio shows, especially the silver shroud. he collects all the comics he can find in the wasteland, and works to try and refurbish damaged copies

sides with the minute men and the railroad; he works really hard to make settlements nice and clean up, and has made efforts to try and get things moving back towards pre-war comfort

following the events of fallout 4, he sets up a radio station that’s a lot like NPR, to try and get educational programming to the whole wasteland.

he begins to ghoulify after the quest in the glowing sea; his hazmat suit had a small fault with exposed him to radiation, and he had been infected with FEV prior to entering the glowing sea. a combination of the radiation and FEV virus triggered the transformation to begin very quickly after returning.

proposes to hancock during the events of the game, and marries him after everything. they settle down in goodneighbor.

i’ve had a hard time pinning exactly what basil’s sexuality is, but he’s either bisexual or pansexual. he probably just settles for “queer,” since he didn’t really figure himself out until he started falling in love with hancock and was kind of like “wait a second”

b may or may not be some level of nonbinary? he’s pretty comfortable with being fluid with his presentation, and probably wouldn’t necessarily object to  having people use pronouns other than he/him. i don’t think he’s a huge fan of specific labels because his experience is a bit hard to describe just with a label.

if i wanted to draw them, what would be distinct physical features that i would have to know to draw them correctly?oh man, there’s honestly a lot to them that’s very specific? but to begin, the biggest features that are immediately noticeable would probably be their ears, nose, and general face shape? they have a pretty long, diamond-shaped face (high, sharp cheekbones, narrower jaw, long pointy chin); their nose is also long, wide at the bridge/root and growing narrower as it goes down. from the side, their nose goes pretty much straight down from their forehead (think DA2 elf nose), and has a longer septum, which dips. their ears are long and stick out straight from their head, and are heavily pierced (about 6 in each ear). their lips are thick, they have semi-prominent jowls. their eyelids and brows are also quite thick! (annnd here are some slightly outdated pics bc i haven’t drawn in forever, and their original design! i think myzz’t will be like 4 or 5 this year!)

what is something they always wanted to do but too scared?for all their research and fearless delving into some of the darker arts, something myzz’t has always wanted to do is try to contact their mother’s spirit somehow. looking into their falmer side in general; i think there’s some sense of alienation, since during the time of the dwemer empire, myzz’t was allowed a position in their father’s household as a member of the family rather than a slave. their name is also very dwemeri (myzuhlft nthualandhei)– while i think they certainly felt sympathy for the falmer, it was an awkward position to be in for so long. i think that’s why they left blackreach for a good few decades in the first place. it was all kind of too much for them, and they didn’t want what their father expected of them.

what is their favourite book?i think they honestly have a fun time reading scholar’s interpretations of dwemer/snow elf society and their research papers, even if to just point out errors. i like to think that they’ve written several letters of calcelmo, which had resulted in furious responses. obviously calcelmo wouldn’t believe them. all the snow elves and dwemer are gone, aren’t they?

what attracts them to another person?myzz’t is an intellectual for sure, but really honestly isn’t the type of person to look down on someone for not knowing as much as them. being alive for over 4000 years tends to teach you that there’s always more to learn; everyone can teach you something. i think they like weird people. like, truly odd, interesting, bizarre people; especially when they’re curious. 

Zhuja the Feral, jungle troll druid of Stranglethorn? Lord you’re gonna have a tough time with her.

Pros:- Likes to relax- Cheap date- Has no standards on where to go for dates- Can be a wild animal in bed (no pun intended)- She can turn into a cat - that’s like perfect if you’re a cat person and use her for comfort- Enjoys activities like hunting- Likes hearing you trash talk your enemies- If she likes you, she’ll hang around with you for a good while
