Hey John, doesn't Moriarty actually kill Holmes at the end of "The Final Problem"? (I know it is argued both ways, but..) So, your guy is killing my guy after my guy already killed your guy, so doesn't your guy need a "coming back to life" clause so that he can kill my guy. Anyway.... 
We are the muses; inspiring humans to great feats of invention, causing lightbulbs to go on over the heads of blocked writers.

I believe Holmes fell down from a waterfall, leaving Moriarty behind in the assumption that Holmes died. Surprisingly Holmes didnt and returned on the orient express, together with Miss Marple, Poirot, Angela Landsbury and others.
Anywho.
I am deaf, dumb and blind, failing in noticing the muses, having foggovi;yord om joyyomh yjr tohjt lrud.
That's a small riddle in this forum

I am eugenics, eliminating "defective" humans, "improving" the race.
As I recall, Holmes and Moriarty both fell from the Reichenbach Falls together, and were presumed dead by Watson after reading the note Holmes left for him. Due to public demand, it was later revealed that, while Moriarty did indeed fall to his death, Holmes managed to save himself, but went into hiding to avoid retribution from Moriarty's lackeys who were waiting higher up the cliffs with handguns...

I am the Rennaisance period, enlightening, educating.
I am not a Sherlock Holmes expert but I think the two arch-rivals are good counters to each other for this game, regardless of who killed whom or who died how.

I think he meant police..
a posse is more likely to start a lynching than prevent it
I'm a riot, police overwelming, looting electronic stores while we're at it.

True, true... yesterday was a long day, I guess instead of adding an "L" I figured he meant a totally different word that did not fit the phrase anyway.
I am willpower, seduction resisting, temptation ignoring.
