One of these faces is Sherlock Holmes! Now perhaps you were wondering how exactly the British detective got into Equestria. Listen well...
Sherlock was bored. After that last case in which he had been exposed to an intelligence-enhancing potion, he had predicted where, when, and how every single crime ever committed or would be committed, and singlehandedly abolished crime from the face of the earth. Except for one man - Steampunk Mecha Moriarty. This diabolical mechanical crook had only one thing on his mind - destroying the good detective. Knowing of his habit of ... ingesting the good sugar, he intercepted Sherlock's weekly package of cocaine and substituted it with steampunk coke, which is cocaine concentrated by about x1,000,000,000. Sherlock picked it up, unaware of the skulduggery afoot, and while he was working on his machine to harvest energy from the galactic core, ... ingested the powder for inspiration. But instead of drug overdose, something miraculous happened! Sherlock was infused with so much energy from the super-cocaine that he immediately transcended physical form! Knowing his spirit would collapse under the laws of physics if he didn't do something fast, Sherlock went onto his machine and shot himself into the galactic core and the black hole within! As he entered the portal, he fondly wished Watson goodbye. When he woke up, he was in a ruined city. He immediately went to the closest intelligent being, which turned out to be some sort of blue pony thing. After he got over the horror (Sherlock does NOT like ponies), he immediately deduced the entire situation from the way Luna sneezed and volunteered to help out. And now, here he is...Sherlock Holmes!
