OC Book ♡ Still In Løve

Sherin Holmes (Sherlock OC)

Fandom: Sherlock

Name: Sherin Holmes

Age: 25

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Straight

Crush(s): (possible) John Watson

Occupation: Investegator/Undercover Detective (her partner is usually Donovan)

Personality: Incredibly smart, strong memory, selective memory, not as independent as her brothers as she relies on Quinn from time to time, a lot more mindful of people's feelings than her brothers.

Face Claim:

Backstory: Born into the Holmes family as the youngest sibling. When she was only 5 her parents faked her death, sending her to Ireland to be raised alongside her current friend Quinn Murphy. Sherlock was 8, Mycroft 15 when she "died." While Mycroft remembers her death vividly, Sherlock decided to block her entire existence out of his memory, replacing her with a dog Redbeard. Her English/British accent she'd acquired began to fade as she picked up the Irish accent, living in Ireland with an Irish "mom and dad", and an Irish "sister" for the majority of her life. Unlike Sherlock, Sherin is properly schooled and trained for her job. On an away job to London, which she was capable of doing without anyone knowing she was a Holmes sibling, she decided she'd convert to Scotland Yard and move to London to give her brothers a surprise.

Extra: Though she has an Irish accent, she can easily fake most English accents (British, Scottish, etc.). She is also the replacement character for Euros Holmes (I had a theory the sibling would be a sister before Season 4 aired)
