Appearance
Basilia has the air of being a gentle and warmhearted young heiress. Behind her half-rimmed glasses is pair of cherubic golden eyes that can make children feel safe, which compliments her voice that seemed to sing every words that comes out of her red lips. Her shamrock green hair is long and wavy, and reaches her shapely waist with a French braid running vertically on the right side that ends on top of her ear. She also boasts an olive skin tone.

Background
Basilia was born in Benilde City, the hometown of her aristocratic clan, the Bluthardt family. In her modified birth record, she was the legal fraternal twin sister of Cyzarine, who was born almost two months ahead her and, genetically speaking, her older half-sister-cousin born in an artificial womb after being extracted prematurely from Maya.This stemmed from Mona's punishment to her exiled older twin sister by taking the child (Cyz) as her own.

''Note: I have yet to revise Mona's and her children's backstory and biological relationship with Cyzarine. ''

Amongst her siblings, Basilia was spoiled and loved the most by Mona. There was no sibling rivalry despite this since her older siblings (Casper, Aricia, Cyzarine) adored her so much. Basilia was personally home schooled by her mother, ranging from basic combat training to drumming in her head the importance of killing the family's enemies and the "family first" policy. Her mother had always brought her to every new orphanage launched by the Bluthardt Corporation, a part of their company's social responsibility. Through her consistent exposure to volunteer work for children like storytelling (under the watchful eyes of her guardians), she'd accidentally stumbled upon her talent and passion in singing and voice acting at the age of 7.

To enhance her innate talent, she was enrolled in a newly established vocal workshop at Silver Note School of Music, a music school where a distant cousin of hers had studied playing oboe. Not even a year had passed she was deemed to have a commercial-grade voice actress for kids shows (animated, puppets) that had included snippets of singing. She'd began immersing herself in the show business, all while giving away her growing fortune to fund orphanages, her family's and other's in Atlas.

However, her public exposure and participation in shows was limited. She was becoming popular, fast, which had reinforced the family's wish to limit the matriarch's youngest daughter's publicity to provide her additional combat training, to help defend herself better. Basilia (8) was taught Dust manipulation along with her ever quiet (half) older fraternal twin sister whom she'd always turned to for help in her studies and training, and was also attached at the hip.

As Basilia (11) advanced her combat and Dust manipulation skills, her family allowed her to flourish in the entertainment industry, going as far as to send her to Mistral to level up her career as a singer/voice actress. She returned to her hometown occasionally and, one time, attended a wedding where she and Cyzarine had met their only second cousin from Vale, Brunhilde. Along with her "daytime" career, she'd been taken to some of her family's operations, helping (a little) in wiping out threats to the family's interests.

As years rolled by, Basilia (13) had performed on stage and behind the scenes back and forth. She earned the stage name Mystic Sprite, a name given to her by fans because of her creative use of Dusts in performances (akin to a magical girl) and her charm was highly regarded. Despite this, she struggled with Dusts. It wasn't that her Dust manipulation skills were lagging behind but the method of making chains or combos of Dust "spells" was her problem.

Her grumblings and her criteria (demands) were bounced off at Cyzarine, unknowingly motivating her quiet older sibling to conceptualize ADSS with the help of software and hardware engineers from ArmorTech. This took Basilia's career to the next level as she had began receiving more accolades in singing and making debuts in singing contests.

Three years later, Basilia (16) went on hiatus. A mission to rescue her fraternal twin sister went south, injuring her terribly and forcing her to keep a low profile as she joins her older siblings headed for Black Order Battalion's HQ in Vale. However, the public thought that she was having life issues in private life being a heiress of an aristocratic family.

Timeline: Directionless Undercurrent to Post-Rip Current
''Note: There are some inconsistencies between the RPs and what is stated here. However, the behind-the-scenes of the Bluthardts don't have major impact to the events to what had taken place.''

At the wake of Black Order Battalion's HQ's fall to the hands of extremists, Basilia withdrew to the underground of Amethyst Belt and tried to warn her older siblings whom she had thought were still dealing with a gang of Faunus terrorists at a mall. It was then she'd discovered that Cyzarine had been kidnapped beforehand to prevent the activation of the HQ's self-destruct feature, and Brunhilde and the Black Hounds had apparently sided with the enemies, much to her horror.

Following the involved factions' (Flagg, Pilgrims, Vale Police, and Bluthardts) successful campaign against the corrupted BOB, it was revealed to Basilia and to those not involved in the plan that everything was staged by the upper echelons of the family. Aside from destroying the enemies that had threatened the family for decades, the Battalion was allowed to fall to make it easier for the family to take over the organization. The Engelnacht family (Brunhilde and co.) only sped up the process by sacrificing their dignity for the goal of the whole family.

Basilia had almost confronted Mona about the well-being of her counterpart, knowing how their cold relationship works, when Cyzarine admitted being part of the plan. It was an obvious lie she accepted for now.

Timeline: A “Perfect” Team to Post-Invisible Strings
Note: She didn't make appearance in these RPs but mentioned.

Basilia returned to Benilde City with Casper and Aricia to help mentor the younger generation of the family. They're the direct descendants of the matriarch after all, and must forge a close bond with the children to ensure the family's future.

Her time in the city was cut short when she was tasked to “talk some sense” to her rebellious fraternal twin after Casper's failure to do so. Basilia had to flew back to Vale.

Post-BoB
Basilia made her comeback in the limelight in Mistral a year after her hiatus.

(WIP)

Personality
Basilia has the natural aura to look naive and an ideal good girl.

Powers/Abilities
Basilia is a mage-type combatant.

Fairy Crystal - Digital Dust Magic Caster (DDMC)
ADSS
 * Creator's signature: Crown Breaker

DES is a hardware managed by DOSS. It is in a form of a square-shaped backpack made of composite metal foam, covered with Nitrile and a layer of metal-graphene nanolayered composite. Inside the backpack contains four detachable discs inside, each with enough slots to secure all known types of Dusts (as cited here).

It is designed for Dust casters (mage type) to easily cast Dusts accurately instead of throwing it around then get people caught in the crossfire and to carry more Dusts without hindering the caster's movements. It will also help the casters to combine two or three Dusts faster in one second. The only difference between this device and other Dust casting devices is that Dust Maximizer, another one of Cyzarine's WIP devices, will be used.

Relationships
Gustave Bluthardt - father. They weren't necessarily close nor distant.

Mona Bluthardt - mother. Basilia respects and loves her very much, and possess the privilege to act much more casual to her compared to her relatives. She does her best making her mother proud as the most popular representative of the Bluthardt family. Nevertheless, when Basilia had discovered Mona's plans to bring down BOB, including the use of her unwilling fraternal twin sister as a bait, she began to doubt her mother's version of "family first" policy.

Casper Bluthardt - older brother.

Aricia Bluthardt - older sister.

Cyzarine Bluthardt - 2nd (half) older sister, also half-cousin. Being fraternal twins (in paper), Cyzarine is her closest sibling. Basilia is readily affectionate and always looks up to her since childhood because the older sibling has been there for her, busy or not. Their relationship was temporarily strained when Cyzarine withdrew emotionally from the rest of the family, which Basilia fixed by confronting her. She holds incredible influence over her apparent fraternal twin, making it hard for the other to completely break away from the family.

Brunhilde Engelnacht - second cousin. They have a strange understanding of each that can be called "very dangerous". Although Basilia is a good girl, her haughtiness and her second cousin's seemed to work in tandem and direct it at the source of their ire. They sympathize one another due to the necessity of their respective careers to put up with trashes.
