According to Sherlock Holmes, Inspector Gregson was the smartest of the Scotland Yarders, and (with Lestrade) the best of a bad lot. Gregson is tall with fair skin and flaxen colored hair. He is professionally jealous of his superior Lestrade, but isn't as apprehensive about asking Sherlock Holmes for assistance in a case. Like Lestrade, PCs may encounter Gregson in their dealings with Scotland Yard. In particularly unusual cases, he will accompany his superior to the scene of the crime.
