 Lucifer Morningstar sought them out for a tarot reading, which they granted.When Lucifer created his new universe, the Basanos moved to take control of it so that they could breed (something that is impossible in God's cosmos).Though initially successful in their plan, forming an alliance with Lucifer's enemies, their ability to control randomness was severely limited by Lucifer's creation, and Lucifer was able to outmaneuver them.
