Basim Across Timelines: Mirage vs Valhalla vs Modern 🔎 (open to discussion)



Mirage Basim
Age & Experience: Young, passionate, eager, impulsive. Still becoming/growing.
Motivation: Wants to belong. Seeks meaning, justice, purpose and identity.
Personality: Passionate, emotional, idealistic, curious, impulsive, quietly hopeful.
Emotional Depth: Wears his heart quietly on his sleeve. Emotions close to the surface, not fully processed.
Connection to Loki: Hints and dreams, fragmented visions, haunted but unaware.
How he loves: Awkward, shy, desperate and starved for affection he doesn’t believe he deserves, clumsy but sincere.
Fears: Being left behind, being “nothing”, being insignificant, forgotten, alone or rejected.
Trust: Hesitant but possible, given cautiously, broken easily.
Biggest Conflict: His own identity, Who is he really? vs the role he’s expected to play. (این بیتی؟ من انا؟/where’s my home? Who am I?)
Symbolic Role: The seeker of truth, searching for his path.
Tone & Dialogue: Curious, emotional, sometimes uncertain. Often asks questions to understand.
Intent & Purpose: Seeking identity, meaning and justice. Driven by a need to belong.
Skills: Still learning, excellent at stealth, parkour, quick thinking.
Position in the Hidden Ones: New recruit of the Hidden Ones. Initiate. Apprentice.
Human Relationships: Craves connection, specially with his Mentor and friends. Builds bonds slowly but genuinely.
Worldview: Idealistic with a tinge of doubt and guilt. Believes change is possible.
Valhalla & Modern Basim are just down below: ⬇️
Valhalla Basim
Age & Experience: Older, mature, calculating, forged by betrayal and hardened by pain. Already became.
Motivation: Wants revenge. Seeks closure, maybe even chaos. Justice warped by pain.
Personality: Cold, intense, calculating and sharp. Logic over sentiment.
Emotional Depth: Burying emotions under layers of control. Deep emotions buried under iron discipline.
Connection to Loki: Fully awakened. Wears the burden of duality. The voice inside has a name.
How he loves: Silent, fierce , protective, his love is strategy and instinct. Quiet but he overprotects more than he speaks.
Fears: Losing control and becoming someone he can’t come back from. Losing himself to revenge or to Loki.
Trust: Rare. Earned at great cost and once earned, unshakable and defended with fire.
Biggest Conflict: The weight of what he knows and what he’s become. Who he is vs what he’s become.
Symbolic Role: The ghost in the machine. Watching. Waiting. Pulling strings. Loki guiding him. (Basim and Loki aren’t the same. Two different individuals, okay?)
Tone & Dialogue: Calm, sharp, layered with hidden meaning. Speaks less but every word is loaded.
Intent & Purpose: Seeking revenge, truth and cosmic justice. Purpose has hardened into resolve.
Skills: Master of deception, combat, stealth and manipulation. Deadly and precise.
Position in the Hidden Ones: Mentor of the Hidden Ones on an exile. Veteran, rogue. Has distanced himself from the hidden ones. Independent.
Human Relationships: Keeps people at a distance. Loyalty is rare but unbreakable when earned.
Worldview: Cynical. Sees the world as a system to be manipulated not mended.
Modern Basim
Age & Experience: Ancient soul in a modern shell. Centuries of knowledge and scars.
Motivation: Balance, manipulation. Preparing for what’s to come.
Personality: Controlled, detached, as always ten steps ahead.
Emotional Depth: Emotions turned into strategy, still present but weaponized.
Connection to Loki: Symbiosis or struggle? Hard to say. The line is blurred and he may no longer care. Have made peace with the duality inside. Basim seems to be in control of the body. Still, Loki’s motivations, rage and past relationships are clearly steering many of Basim’s modern day actions.
How he loves: Purposeful and intense. Love becomes survival —ruthless but real.
Fears: Losing control or worse; losing humanity.
Trust: Practically nonexistent at this point but if given, it means everything.
Biggest Conflict: Who he serves vs who he used to be and whether he still cares.
Symbolic Role: The keeper of truth and its consequences. The judge and holder of knowledge. (I’m not sure if Modern Basim has completely handed over control to Loki, if they still coexist somehow or if Loki is partly gone.)
Tone & Dialogue: Measured, deliberate, almost surgical. Rarely speaks more than necessary.
Intent & Purpose: Managing outcomes. Balancing agendas. Driven by foresight more than feeling.
Skills: Ancient assassin with modern tech expertise. Efficient and unpredictable.
Position in the Hidden Ones: Cooperates with William Miles. Operates independently. Wields knowledge like a weapon.
Human Relationships: Detached. Relationships are either tools or vulnerabilities. (rare exceptions may exist)
Worldview: Coldly realistic, burdened by knowledge and duality. The world is cruel but not without design.
