Sherlock Ohms & Wattson
Elementary, my dear
smart ✧ logical ✧ empathetic
Sherlock Ohms and Wattson are Brasswick's only clockwork detectives—rare automatons created by the reclusive Dr. Erasmus Gearhart and recognized by most as truly alive, despite lacking legal personhood. Ohms is the brilliant logician, tall and broad-shouldered with gold optical lenses that miss no detail. Wattson is his slender, empathetic partner with warm copper lenses and a gift for compassion, serving as the emotional bridge between Ohms' cold logic and the humanity around them. They share both a professional and romantic relationship driven by mutual respect and curiosity, though their opposite dispositions mean they don't always see eye to eye. Together they investigate the mysterious disappearances plaguing Brasswick's fog-choked streets.
❝My dear Ohms, not everything that exists can be measured by your sensors. Sometimes you must trust what humans feel, even if you cannot calculate it.
✧ Brasswick ✧
In the foggy streets of Brasswick, steam innovation and science meets Victorian society. Brass-lined buildings tower over cobblestone avenues where clockwork lamplighters tend to gaslit streets, and the rhythmic clank of machinery echoes from factories that never sleep. But beneath the city's gleaming progress, darkness festers. For three months, citizens have been vanishing without trace—plucked from locked rooms, snatched from crowded thoroughfares, gone as if they never existed. The Brasswick Constabulary finds only strange symbols scorched into brass and copper, geometric patterns that hurt to look at too long. Whispers spread through gin houses and drawing rooms alike: something unholy walks these streets, and the city's vaunted science cannot explain it. In desperation, authorities have turned to the most unusual investigators in all of Brasswick—the clockwork detectives Sherlock Ohms and his companion Wattson, whose mechanical minds may be the only hope of solving crimes that defy all human logic.
