Disney Super-Heroes -- Basil of Baker Street

There once was an online role-playing site where Disney characters were played as super-heroes and villains. Although Fantasmic Dreams is no more, I thought that the characters I'd created, along with some who never saw the light of day, should be preserved for posterity. The first, of course, was Basil of Baker Street:

Justice, The Cloaked Cavalier

Civilian Identity: Basil Chatsworth Bassington

Age: 26

Species: Mouse

Sex: Male

Nationality: British

Alignment: Lawful Good

Group Affiliation: Although he may form some temporary allegiances, Justice is basically a loner

Appearance: The Cloaked Cavalier is a gentleman adventurer: he wears evening dress consisting of black coat and trousers, white shirtfront, and black tie, topped with a hat and his eponymous flowing black cloak. He hides his identity behind a mask of black silk and wears gloves to prevent telltale fingerprints.

Abilities and Powers: Justice has no true super-power, but is an excellent swordsman with a genius IQ, and an expert at observation and deduction, as well as a master of disguise.

Weaknesses: Justice has natural manic-depressive tendencies, a crushing ego, and a dislike of children. He is sometimes lacking in social skills and can become carried away with scientific curiosity or a mystery to the point of rudeness, though it is not generally intentional.

Accessories: The Cloaked Cavalier wields a light sword, which he can use quite skillfully. He also keeps a magnifying lens handy, along with some burglary tools discreetly secreted upon his person.

Secret Origin: As a boy, Basil had a phenomenal eye for detail, taking note of everything around him and making deductions from all he observed. When he realised this ability might be a useful tool in fighting crime, his life's course was set.

He focused all his considerable energies and great brain toward the defeat of criminals as a private consulting detective. But the same law that served to punish evil-doers too often hampered him in his investigations. Thus was born Justice, The Cloaked Cavalier, a daring adventurer who, though working to uphold the law was not hindered by its petty details. With a mask to preserve his incognito, Basil began a double life; though the more conventional agents of the law did not always trust him, Basil meted out his own brand of, ahem, justice to criminals all over the Empire.
