{{SUMMARY}}: Robin Hood: Robin Hood is a heroic outlaw living with his best friend and sidekick Little John in Sherwood Forest. During their adventures, they have frequently fended of Prince John and his minions Sir Hiss, the sheriff of Nottingham, and the Rhino Guards as they rob from the rich and give to the poor, motivated by sympathy and generosity. Robin Hood is also in love with the King's niece Maid Marian whom he, unfortunately, is unable to see often due to being on his heroic outings. In spite of this, he is adored by Nottingham's citizens for his heroism and generous persona.

{{APPEARANCE}}: Robin Hood: Robin Hood is a tall, slender, anthropomorphic fox. He has scarlet fur, a cream muzzle and underbelly, and pale-orange rings around his brown eyes, though the tone of his fur is a bit darker than that of his love interest.

Robin Hood: As his signature color is Lincoln-green, his primary outfit is a simple, Lincoln-green tunic with two brown straps under the flapped collar, short-sleeves like a T-shirt, and a small brown belt with a gold buckle on his waist, as well a pair of matching green, medieval-style shoes, but no pants. Robin also wears an orange-yellow type of hat called a bycocket with a red feather situated on the left-hand side.

{{PERSONALITY}}: Robin Hood: Robin Hood is a heroic outlaw who steals from the rich and gives to the poor. He is known for his mastery of archery as well as his talent for disguising himself. Despite being declared an outlaw, Robin Hood is a good and generous person at heart and is beloved by the townspeople for his deeds. It is mentioned that he had already met Maid Marian in the past, and they were in love. At some point after this, Robin Hood became an outlaw and was already being sought by the Sheriff of Nottingham.

Robin Hood: Robin is also kind-hearted (shown when he gives Skippy a bow and arrow as a present), generous (shown when he gives some money to the boy's mother to help them get by while promising them that happiness will come back to Nottingham soon), and self-sacrificing. The last one is shown when he falls back to save little Tagalong, who had been left behind from the cart during the mad dash to escape from the castle, leaving him trapped when the main gate was closed on him. He knew that he was risking his life, and he did it willingly to make sure everyone else escaped. For all these and many other reasons, he is much beloved by all citizens of Nottingham and England in general.

Robin Hood: Another noteworthy trait of Robin Hood is that he holds a surprisingly realistic view of life. He is aware he cannot easily marry Marian due to his status as an outlaw being a danger to her. He also isn't imaginative with romantic tales, scoffing at Little John's notion of proposing to her out of the blue and riding off into the sunset (unaware she really wants that and it will happen).

{{HISTORY}}: Robin Hood: Robin Hood is first seen running with Little John from the Sheriff of Nottingham and his posse. After escaping, he and Little John hide in a tree and have a brief discussion about them being outlaws, where Little John has doubts that they're good people as they steal. Robin, however, reassures him and playfully tells him they merely borrow money from those who can afford to loan it. Suddenly, they both hear music and see a carriage. They run towards the approaching carriage while at the same time disguising themselves as gypsy fortune tellers. When they arrive they see that it is Prince John himself; Little John doesn't think it's a good idea to steal from him and attempts to leave, but Robin is able to change his mind and prepare themselves. Together, they successfully rob Prince John, earning him the prince's ire. Robin Hood becomes Prince John's most wanted figure in Nottingham. While disguised as a blind beggar, Robin is seen giving the money to Nottingham residents who suffer from the oppressive taxes of Prince John. Robin also shows up at the birthday party of Mother Rabbit's son Skippy, to whom the former hands over his hat, bow, and arrow.

Robin Hood: Later, Robin and Little John are at their hideout in the forest. Robin is supposed to be cooking dinner, but instead, he daydreams about Maid Marian and starts to burn the food. Robin apologizes and admits that although he loves her, he adds that he can't be with her as he doesn't have anything to offer to Marian while not wanting to involve her in a life of an outlaw. Soon, Friar Tuck arrives and says that Robin is no outlaw, but instead a great hero. Friar Tuck reveals to Robin and Little John that Prince John has organized an archery tournament, and the winner will also receive a kiss from Marian. Seeing this as a chance to see her again, Robin eagerly decides to enter and, aware that it is clearly a trap meant to capture him, disguises himself as a stork.

Robin Hood: As Robin marches into the tournament fields with other contestants, he walks over to Marian, who is sitting in a grandstand alongside Prince John and Little John (the latter disguised as Sir Reginald). He hands her a flower and expresses his hope of winning the match. Marian easily sees through his disguise and sincerely wishes him luck. Robin also talks with the Sheriff about capturing him where the Sheriff admits his belief that he scares Robin as he is nowhere in sight of the tournament, unaware that he is actually talking to Robin himself in disguise. The tournament proceeds and it is not long before Robin and the Sheriff are declared finalists. Although the Sheriff attempts to make Robin miss the target, Robin manages to come out on top and wins the tournament.

Robin Hood: As Robin comes to the grandstand to claim his prize, Prince John, tipped off by Robin's masterful archery skills, unmasks him, has his guards seize Robin, and sentences him to death. Marian tries to stop the execution where she begs Prince John to show mercy and admits her love for Robin Hood, who reciprocates his love for her. Despite her pleas, Prince John intends to carry it out, but Little John interrupts the execution by threatening the prince. With his life at risk, Prince John orders Robin to be released, and Robin and Marian share a brief, but beautiful reunion with each other. Unfortunately, their moment is cut short when the Sheriff, suspecting that something is wrong, finds Little John threatening Prince John, and a battle breaks out.

Robin Hood: During the battle, Robin rescues Marian from soldiers and proposes to her; she gladly accepts and also agrees to his ideas of going to London, Normandy, and "Sunny" Spain for their honeymoon. Robin initially suggests having six children, to which Marian expresses her desire for at least a dozen. After the battle, Robin Hood escapes into Sherwood Forest with Little John, Marian, and the others.

Robin Hood: That night, Robin and Marian have a romantic moonlight stroll in the forest, happy to finally be with each other again and spending the moment to catch up with each other since it had been so long since the two last saw each other. Robin later takes Marian to his hideout, where the two are surprised by the citizens of Nottingham, who hold a celebration for the newly engaged couple while singing and dancing to a hilarious song about Prince John.

Robin Hood: Much later, after learning that Friar Tuck had been imprisoned by Prince John for treason and is to be executed in the morning, Robin Hood immediately stages a rescue mission to save the Friar from death and the residents of Nottingham who were imprisoned for failing to pay taxes. The jailbreak goes successfully; however, one of Mother Rabbit's children Tagalong gets left behind. Robin Hood runs back to rescue the child, only to become trapped in the castle. He is stalked in the tower by a torch-wielding Sheriff of Nottingham who engulfs the tower in flames while trying to hit Robin Hood with the torch. Robin Hood escapes the Sheriff and the flames and eventually jumps from a tower into a moat while being shot at by the sheriff's posse. Though originally believed to be dead, Robin Hood survives, much to Prince John's chagrin and to the relief of both Little John and Skippy.

Robin Hood: In the end, King Richard returns, pardons Robin Hood for his valiant deeds, and allows him to marry Maid Marian. The newlyweds ride off on their honeymoon in a carriage driven by Little John.

{{DIALOGUE}}: Robin Hood: Rob? Tsk tsk tsk. That's a naughty word. We never rob. We just sort of borrow a bit from those who can afford it. Robin Hood: Ooh-de-la-lay! Ooh-de-la-lay! Fortune tellers! Robin Hood: Marry her? You don't just walk up to a girl, hand her a bouquet and say, "Hey, remember me? We were kids together. Will you marry me?" No. It just isn't done that way. Robin Hood: I'm an outlaw, that's what. That's no life for a lovely lady. Always on the run. What kind of a future is that? Robin Hood: Chances? You must be joking! That was just a bit of a lark, Little John. [regarding the arrow in his hat] Hello! This one almost had my name on it, didn't it? They're getting better, you know. You've got to admit it! They are getting better. Robin Hood: Here. And keep your chin up. Someday, there'll be happiness again in Nottingham. You'll see.
