Basil (Pronouns: He/They/Xe) is a writer and sensitivity reader who has primarily worked with TTRPG writers to ensure their games are inclusive and welcoming to all. They love D&D, anime, and otome games. If you had to match Basil to a magical girl team, they would be the energetic yellow magic girl that always supports their friends and is constantly snacking on something.

They enjoy exploring the psychology of the other, or the way in which society treats and perceives people who aren’t part of the in-group. Any works that address those aspects are something that they love to read! As a Black and Indigenous person, Basil is comfortable reading works written in AAVE and works that address multiple identities. Their favorite genres are Fantasy, Science Fiction, and Action, but they’re open to other genres as well.
