Michael Hopcroft Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Re: Sherlock Holmes? That didn't look at all like a useful character sheet. Times weren't always as good as we remember them as far as RPGs go, apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkdguy Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 Re: Sherlock Holmes? Some random trivia: I can see Holmes having STR 15 as listed in the character sheet, as he could bend (or rather unbend) a fireplace poker. He has some interesting Knowledge Skills including tobacco and ink. IIRC, he recognized that the ink used in Jabez Wilson's tattoo came from China.

Trebuchet Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Re: Sherlock Holmes? Treb' date=' I'm interested in how you're going to use Holmes in a game. A PC based on him? An important NPC?[/quote']More likely an opponent (not an enemy). Our pulp game is set around 1910, so Holmes is still around although semi-retired to Sussex. His final published adventure (chronologically speaking), His Last Bow, supposedly takes place in 1915. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
