Hercule "Elly" Barton ('ヘラクレ・スバートン) is one of the four main protagonists in Tantei Opera Milky Holmes. A very shy girl who is easily embarrassed.
Personality
Hercule is always passive one in the team, often unable to speak up and is sometimes completely left out of an conversation. She often tries to be the voice of reason, but her timid nature means she's often ignored and yelled at afterwards. Nevertheless when she is determined, her actions often speaks louder than her words.
Shy as she is, she cannot stand people looking at her even for a short period of time. Of the four, she is also the one who is the most sexually educated (As seen in the episode where she runs away crying when Kokoro asks her to pose with her legs wide open in a twister game or the episode where she explains the actions of a stripper wearing a long coat.) But then again, she does try to conquer her short comings by taking a job as a posing model for a art center. Which sadly gives her nightmares in her sleep when she dreams of the artists staring at her.
Hercule's Toy is the power of superhuman strength. Like the others whose abilities were never used throughout the series, the fully extent of her powers are never fully demonstrated but she was seen swinging a construction excavator like a baseball bat and lifting then throwing a whale from the seashore with ease. It should be noted that thoughout the period where the Milky Holmes girl's Toys were lost, Hercule is the only one who has successfully activated her Toy during a time of crisis.
