History Characters / Thief2014

As in the original series, Basso is Garrett's old pal and associate. He's the guy who gives Garrett missions in-game. Little else is confirmed about the rebooted Basso at this point.
* CallBack / MythologyGag: "Never again," in response to Garrett asking him if he's getting married. This may refer to "Running Interference", the very first mission of ''Thief II: the Metal Age''.

* HypocriticalHumour: Calls Erin out for relying on the Claw so much, then later uses it himself. Probably justified because Erin made it seem a lot louder than it really was.

* DisneyVillainDeath: Falls through a skylight and onto the Primal Stone trying to retrieve her Claw.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: Erin was a [[spoiler:new prostitute at the House of Blossoms, but murdered her first John and escaped, becoming Garrett's apprentice]].

* OurGhostsAreDifferent: Garrett has numerous visions of Erin following her death.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: Erin was a [[spoiler:new prostitute at the House of Roses, but murdered her first John and escaped, becoming Garrett's apprentice]].

* HatesBeingTouched: While a [[spoiler:prostitute at the Den of Roses, she told a john "Don't touch me." and shanked him when he didn't listen]].

* [[spoiler: NotQuiteDead]]

* HatesBeingTouched: While posing as a prostitute at the Den of Roses, she told a john "Don't touch me." and shanked him when he didn't listen.

* [[spoiler: WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Becomes this at the very end of the game, due to having accidentally absorbed the Primal into herself, and ultimately deciding to use its power to lash out blindly at everyone and everything after being tortured and controlled by the Baron and later Orion.]]

* [[spoiler: CainAndAbel: It turns out Orion is actually Aldous, the Baron's brother who was exiled by their father, the previous Baron. Orion is now working to overthrow his brother, after the Baron's failure to harness the power of the Primal to save the city.]]
* [[spoiler: WellIntentionedExtremist: He seems to genuinely care about the lower classes and want to cure them of the Gloom. It's just that a) he has no compulsion against blowing up much of the City to do so, and b) he's too stubborn to realize his "cure" MayContainEvil.]]

* CallBack / MythologyGag: "Never again," in response to Garrett asking him if he's getting married. The first mission in ''Thief II: the Metal Age'' has you rescuing Basso's girlfriend.

* MismatchedEyes: It looks like he's blind in his left eye due to [[spoiler:a shard of the Primal Stone getting imbedded in it]].

* BigGood: Takes this role for much of the game, especially for the lower classes. [[spoiler: As you might have learned from [[ThiefTheDarkProject Constantine]], [[{{Bioshock}} Atlas]], or [[{{Dishonored}} Admiral Havelock]], such men are usually not what they seem.]]

* CompleteMonster: He's so terrible that Garrett is explicitly willing to make an exception to his "no killing" rule just for him.
