Conan is a deduction genius and incredibly observant. Like his idol he is capable of performing a Sherlock Scan on people he meets.  Since I certainly don't know all of the canons in this game and since he could possibly bring up things in this way you don't want getting figured out, I put together this short permissions post.

So to help figure out this ability, please answer the following questions for your characters.

<b>1.  What is your character's name and journal?</b> <b>2.  Is it okay for Conan to deduct something about your character's history?  Is there anything you don't want him to figure out?</b> <b>3.  What is your character's physical appearance?  Please include clothing style, hair color, calluses, scars, and anything else that might be visible.</b> <b>4. Does your character have any odd tics or habits? </b> <b>5. Does your character have an accent?</b> <b>6. Does your character have any hobbies that might leave clues on your character's appearance?  For example a character who spent  lot of time writing or drawing might have ink stains on their hands or clothes.  Or a character who  played a lot of a certain sport might have calluses.</b> <b>7. Is there anything else about your character that Conan might be able to deduct?</b>

Unless something deliberately catches Conan's attention and he decides to do an in-depth investigation, he will only be getting very general things from this. Perhaps background would be a better word than history. He can figure out things like hobbies, profession, if someone had traveled recently and where they had been, if they work with their hands, etc. But he won't be getting anything more specific than that. Its mostly useful as a way of impressing people with his detective skills and of figuring out when something doesn't fit in the middle of an investigation.

Thanks. I included everything I thought would be reasonable to figure out. Background/history are much the same in this context I think, since Felix was a prostitute before he was trained to be a noble. Other than his flirtatious nature, however, there isn't much in his current mannerisms that would hint at that.

I just wanted to leave it open for Conan to do his thing :)

It will be very helpful. Especially since I don't know the canon at all.

Yeah, he probably won't figure that much out. Since he still doesn't believe that the castle is bringing people from different worlds. He'll probably try to find some way to justidy what he notices in the context of modern Japan.
