I gave up drinking and sex...worst 15 minutes of my life.
The Goddess of Excess and Intoxication, Basi is the daughter of Epithymia (Desire) and Misos (War).
She is said to have been conceived the night her father had won a major battle against the Greek pantheon. Drunk on his own power, he ravished Epithymia. In some versions, it was Epithymia who ravished him.
Completely hedonistic, Basi took numerous lovers and was seldom seen sober. She was a mischievous goddess who loved to create havoc in mortal lives. She was often blamed for illicit affairs and for greed.
