Basil works as a keeper of the Portkeys, handling their return while witches and wizards clamor around him. He is seen in the bustle of the journey to the Quidditch World Cup, looking weary as he collects used Portkeys. A minor but memorable figure, he brings an everyday, workingman's steadiness to the wizarding world's hurried spectacle.
Description
Basil wears a kilt and poncho, practical clothes that stand out amid the crowd of travelers. He carries a thick roll of parchment and a quill, and his expression is weary from the busy work of managing Portkeys. No details of his hair, eyes, complexion, or build are specified. His presence is brisk and workmanlike, that of a keeper focused on his task.
