I know that when people make new persona OCs they usually focus on the humans first and the persona second,, but,, I Am Not Like That, so have a bunch of Detective!Persona to foil the Thief!Persona

A little background info (because not everyone is as famous as Holmes) can be found under the cut.
Sherlock: part-time navigator until Poirot joins the team. His element is psi and he's got a tv for a face/robot body because Sherlock Holmes has been portrayed by the media and on television so many times that he keeps living on through those mediums.
Maud West: a real person born in 1880 who was known as 'London's Lady Detective'. She mostly investigated divorces and missing person cases and had many disguises. Her element is fire.
Peabody: star of a series of historical mystery novels. She has a quick mind and sharp tongue but is a romantic at heart. She's married to an equal egyptilogist husband, and they live in Egypt and London both. Her element is nuclear and she's a sphinx with wings because of her love of Egypt.
Poirot: one of Agatha Christie's many beloved characters, Poirot is a detective with a magnificent mustache who travels across Europe to solve cases, most famously the Murder on the Orient Express. He abhorrs violence, but his (probable) ocd is a great aid in his case-solving abilities which is why I chose him as a navigator. This Poirot is mostly based on the one in the movies by Branagh because I love those.
Dupin: a character by Edgar Allan Poe. Featured in what is considered the first detective fiction story, before the term 'detective' was coined. He relies on his intellect to solve crimes that interest him, and his appearance as a persona is heavily inspired by Poe's ravens from the poem Nevermore. His element is curse.
Miss Marple: another beloved character of Agatha Christie, an elderly lady who's a detective consultant. Her element is wind, and her design is inspired by the idioms "a sheep in wolf's clothing" and "silk hiding steel" as well as a book I've once read where sheep try to uncover the murder of their farmer, where the main sheep was a homage to Miss Marple
Ganimarde: a police detective often opposing Lupin, so I had to. Though Ganimarde doesn't appear in many of the novels, he's still one of the more recognizable recurring characters, if only because Lupin always outsmarts him in the end. His design is kept similar to Arsene's on purpose, and his element is ice.
Closeau: the detective featured in the Pink Panther franchise, an inept french policeman. Because the eponymous diamond (and later animated pink panther from the series) is more well-known than Closeau, he is a half-panther. His design mostly incorporates elements from the cartoon series, and his element is electro.
