Overview: Okay, let’s start with a little story. In the country in my story (which called Mercevene and the same country as everyone I’ve commissioned you from), there is a legend about “5 Great Knights.” To put long story short, they helped founded Mercevene and gain recognition. The newly crowned King wished them to be made nobles and to help him ruled in parliament. However, they declined in ground that they’re knights; they’re to protect and fight, not to rule. So the King made them to have their own title, as well as giving their descendants special privilege.
That being said, one knight ended up not having any direct descendant and gave the privilege to his brother’s descendant instead. The legend never elaborates on why and people never asked... The truth lost in the sea of time.

Now, the character I want to commission you is this one knight of 5 Great Knights who didn’t have descendant (Actually, I plan to commission you for the other knights next time xD). This is because after the civil war ended, he became an undead. He’s one of the first undead and also the “mastermind” of Mercevene’s tradition of reviving dead soldiers.
What I want you to design isn’t his knight selves, though, but after he became some sort-of a hermit (he lived for about 70 years after turned into an undead and lived in seclusion after retiring from being a knight.) And also, he weren’t of the same line with the other characters, he died years before the story began, but he’s still important nonetheless.
Mood/Impression of the character: I have pretty clear idea on this and that is for him to give the impression of a grim reaper. Kinda like dark, scary, lifeless, but oddly captivating.
Name: Basil Beloughy
Gender: Male
Age: Mid-thirties
Race: He's half human and half my original race, Aicoss (I'll explain what characteristic he got from this heritage below). But at the same time, he's undead (though I'm not sure if undead can be considered a race, hahaha)
Occupation: Was a knight now a hermit.
Height: 193 cm
Facial features: As part Aicoss, he got androgynous face and can be considered as handsome. Facial shape-wise, it's square-ish with square chin. And he's clean shaven (can no longer grow a beard)
Body type: Fairly muscular, but completely covered by his clothes. Slightly longer limbs than average.
Skin tone: Grey-ish with brown undertones (very similar to Bernadette's skintone)
Hair: Medium-length, bright-colored (anything, but red), kinda messy.
Eyes: Color-wise, I want something striking for his eyes. No restriction.
Outfit: A thin, long, tattered black robe with a hood. Beneath the robe should be just regular traveler outfit and boots. The outfits shouldn't be too fancy, though, as he's a hermit. And as an undead, he can no longer feels cold, so feel free to give him thin outfit. For the colors, though, I'd like to wear mostly dark-colored clothes.
Weapon: None; ditched his weapon when he's retired.
Personality (hermit version):
Basil has always had crude and blunt demeanor remnant of his less-than-smooth teenage years. It's something that he just can't seem to get rid off of. And after being a hermit, it became worse. Whenever he meets someone (which is pretty rare occurrences), he -somehow- always successfully offends them one way or another. He's still highly curious and do whatever he wants to do, including act like a madman and covering up his identity as part of 5 Great Knights.
