Trivia[]

Ferociously devoted to his master, Capricorn. Capricorn could care less about Basta, but Basta would follow him anywhere. Basta is cruel and one of the main villains of Inkheart. He enjoys taunting his victims, and although he can dish it out, he can't take it, and is said by Mortola to love his voice so much that he always taunts his victims before he kills them. He is never without a knife and his lucky charm, as he is very superstitious, and enjoyed carving cruel patterns into Dustfinger's face with his knife in Inkheart, but is killed in Inkspell, as revenge for killing Farid by a knife in his back.
