Nah. That guy looks to angry. Definitely a reference to Holmes with the hat and all. We will see in a week, I suppose.

I just always picture Basil Rathbone when I think of Holmes. And that doesnt look like Rathbone, not that the lot of you even know who that is. Gah.

Thats not sherlock holmes, the clothing is reminiscent of victorian england, which is the time setting for albion.

If it were Holmes then it would be confusing, because Albion isnt located on Earth
Its more like a character dressed to look similar to holmes, sorry if I bursted any bubbles

This. Of course it won't be Sherlock Holmes, but it could very well be a reference to the character.

Albion is the old English name for England and is used in many many different legends and fables the people at lionhead used Fable to bring back many myths into our society that were slowly fading most americans don't even know what Hobbes are but I personally will scare the onesies off my children with stories of the little creeps snatching them from their beds and the evil balvarns that lurk in the woods

also Arora (probably spelled wrong) was the old English word for 'Far off land' or 'New world' so yeah lionhead knows their ****

Albion is indeed placed on Earth. If you listen to one of PM's latest discussion, he says how he hates RPGs based on wierd planets. Plus Albion is the old English name for England.

But if you look at Hal's armor and the description and tie that into Halo it kinda seems like its on another planet. lol
I am just playing the devil's advocate here.

I doubt it's Sherlock because the time period for him isn't right, but it will be really cool if it was. Also, that's interesting to know that Albion is the old English name for England. :)
