___________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description:
With a slight and waifish build, it's apparent to all who meet him that Basil Whitechalk hasn't worked a day in his life. His skin is soft and free of blemishes. His eyes are hazel in color, and his platinum blonde hair is short and wavy. He wears a fancy blue outfit with a white cape- he thinks it makes him look dashing.

Basil's spirit stone is diamond! He wears a 1ct VVSI princess cut in a cyathil men's ring.

Personality:
Having lived an incredibly sheltered life, Basil's social skills are rather... stunted. He's rarely allowed to talk to anybody outside of his family or their servants. He isn't allowed to have friends, and he can't leave the family manor without supervision from at least two others. Almost everything the boy knows about the outside world comes from the books he's read- and he hates reading! Basil really wants to explore Altas Verde someday, but so far he hasn't been able to convince his parents that he'd be safe without them.

Basil is incredibly hyperactive, and will bounce off the walls without something to keep him occupied. Right now his favorite game is hide and seek! He's really good at staying hidden, and knows all the best hiding spots in his mansion. Sometimes his sister will agree to play with him, only to not look for him after he's hidden- it's about the only way to keep him quiet!

Basil wholeheartedly believes that his family are superior to the rest of humanity, and that they were born to rule over others. Hey, if that's all you were ever told growing up, you'd believe it too!

Relationships:
While he loves his family dearly, deep down Basil would really like to meet somebody his own age. His big sister is weird, his older brother isn't fun, and his parents are sooooo boring! His aunt can be fun sometimes, but she isn't around as often as the others. They all spoil him rotten though, and the boy can have just about anything he wants if he asks them nicely.

Magic/Abilities:
Basil can grant wishes! No request is too absurd for him- if you want it, he can make it happen! There is a catch, though- in order for him to grant your wish, you need to solve a math problem!

Once you've made your request, an equation will appear in front of you in glowing, intangible symbols. You have three minutes to state your answer- if you get it wrong or run out of time, then you cannot make another wish for an entire month.

The larger the request made, the more difficult the math problem will be. For example, if you wish for a large amount of money to pay off a debt, the equation may look like this:

Solve for X
28x-4⋅163x−5=169x+2

But if your wish is to be the wealthiest person in Le'Raana, the problem will look more like this:

Let n ≥ 3 be an integer, and let a2, a3,⋅⋅⋅,an be positive real numbers such as a2a3⋅⋅⋅an=1. Prove that:
(1+a2)2(1+a3)3⋅⋅⋅(1+ an)n > nn

Basil cannot see the math equation you get, nor can he make wishes himself. However, he can enforce an "exact words" policy on your wish if he doesn't like it- he could choose to interpret "I wish my wife would disappear" as "Make my wife invisible" for example.

History:
Born into the prestigious Whitechalk bloodline, Basil's powers manifested very early on in life. Upon recognizing the boy's wellspring of potential, his parents decided to keep him a secret to the rest of the world- there are people who would stop at nothing to kidnap their son if they knew he could easily make their desires reality. To this day the boy has never stepped a foot outside his family's property...
