The partners of Cole Phelps[edit | edit source]

  • Ralph Dunn: The first in a long line of do-nothing partners. Dunn looks like a tub of margarine and is about as smart as a suitcase full of shoehorns.
  • Stefan Bekowsky: A Polish guy who spends more time pissing into the wind than solving any crimes. He is a total waste of tax payer money.
  • Finbarr “Rusty” Galloway: Basically Ernest Hemingway sans the literary talent.
  • Roy Earle: Being a thoroughly corrupt cop in every way possible, Roy is more interesting in ingesting drugs and getting kickbacks than pulling criminals off the streets. He is also a racist misogynist but since this is the 1904s no one really seems to care.
  • Herschel Biggs: An old timer from the old school, Biggs spends his days picking through charred bodies while trying to solve arson cases.

  • If a person's face twitches, he's telling the truth.
