* TheLeader
* MasterOfDisguise[=/=]ImpersonationGambit: So much so that he can fake different American accents. Of course, [[LatexPerfection elastomasks]] also help, especially as many of his disguises are real people.
* TheSpock
* AngstWhatAngst: Unfortunately, there is ''no'' CharacterDevelopment regarding Holmes's return to life -- he gets nostalgic from time to time and he refuses to accept robo!Watson at first, but this is as far as it goes. One would think he'd have ''some'' issues after having ''died'' and then returning to life in a ''completely different century''.
* DeadpanSnarker[=/=]GentlemanSnarker
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Not for long, though.
* GenreSavvy: To the point of reading up on ''Literature/{{Dracula}}'' when dealing with a vampire.
* TheHero[=/=]TheProtagonist: Becomes an action hero with the episodes following him on his investigations even when he's working alone.
* IncrediblyLamePun: Has an unfortunate propensity for these.
* InsufferableGenius: He's much nicer than he was [[Literature/SherlockHolmes in his youth]], but he still has his moments.
* ItsPersonal: If it's [[BerserkButton Watson]], absolutely. Lestrade quickly reaches this status, as well.
* JumpedAtTheCall: Threw himself right into his first case.
