Here is a list of the current "casting" for our version of the Sherwood Forest gang. Only the ones that are already made are set in stone. The purpose of this list is so that we can keep in mind what characters surround our own and how they might fit in each others' lives; we can retcon later in the road if necessary. Remember to check journal profiles to see how we've fit them into the world in more detail!

This also acts as a sort of muse most wanted list, so let us know if you're interested in trying any of these guys out.

❧ Chris Robin Coghlan is the 23 year old Storybrooke town petty thief. He generally deals in stealing food, small trinkets and wallets. Many times he will take things of little actual value that he can still sell for enough cash to survive to the next day.
    Coghlan is of Irish origin, derived from Cochlan, meaning a short hooded cloak.
❧ Very homeless. The closest place he has is a high-suspension hammock (7 ft.) out in the woods along with a few emptied out trunks to hold his meager belongings. Most of the time, he loves it out there and doesn't care to sleep anywhere else. Only a small handful of people actually know where he stays the night when not trying to swing himself into the sheriff's office.
    (He actually sleeps better in a hammock than a real bed, although he's gotten used to the one in the jail cell.)
❧ He's often caught either by his marks or the people he tries selling things to (never does he sell his small change to Mr. Gold, despite it being the perfect place to do so) and spends several nights a month in the sheriff's office. Most people do not press charges, as it's obvious he doesn't do the things he does to be malicious. It's apparent to some that his actions are sometimes because he wants to sleep in a cell rather than in the woods when the nights get too windy or chilly.
❧ Chris only has one relative to speak of: his cousin, Mal Scathelocke. The seven year gap between them means the relationship is as much cousins as it is brothers and father/son. (Robin's sister seems to have disappeared from Chris's life in Storybrooke, although she is still around in another form.)
❧ Tensions between Chris and Mal are high despite the closeness of being all the other has left, as Mal disapproves greatly of Chris's lifestyle choices. However, the two sometimes come together for lunch or dinner (either at Granny's or Mal's place) to gossip about the town and Mal tends to employ whatever sneaky methods necessary to get Chris to stay the night.
❧ When he was a child, Chris ran away from home and was promptly sent back by Leo Abbot. This left him with the feeling that he couldn't trust Leo, and he doesn't want to get close at all.
❧ Some time after that, Chris's parents passed away. He was briefly placed in the church/orphanage cared for by Doctor Felix and—surprise, surprise—Leo. He hated every minute, although part of him opened up to the young volunteer, Trip Tucker. (Not much, because he was obviously in cahoots with the other two.) Mal soon adopted him to get him out of there, and they quickly come to an agreement that gave Chris his independence. Due to the effects of the curse, this sequence of events is known, yet Chris finds it difficult to recall the specifics. Leftover fragments of a nonexistent past.
❧ Nowadays, when he needs the ear of someone who can talk back and not judge him for his current life-choices (coughMalcough), Chris goes to Trip, who has become quite well-known as a drunk. There's some sort of unspoken understanding that they're both missing something from their lives despite knowing nothing was ever really taken from them.
❧ Unbeknownst to all but one other person, Chris operates in the shadows as the high profile thief, Archer. He was named after Archer Security, Mal's company, due to suspicions cast on his cousin for Archer's uncanny ability to make it through any system that was set up. Mal has no idea of Chris's secret identity.
❧ The profits Archer accrues go straight back into the town in order to fund its repairs and other necessities. Proper redistribution of funds, if you will.
❧ Mr. Gold is the only other person aware of Chris's identity, after he made the mistake of attempting to pawn one of Archer's prizes off at the man's shop. Gold recognized it and made Chris a deal: work for him every now and then, and Gold wouldn't turn Chris over to the police. Determined to keep his own operation running smoothly... Chris accepted.
❧ Chris has a habit of wandering the town daily to keep himself busy and look for opportunities. Oftentimes, this ends with him speaking to an unidentified coma patient at the hospital, the only person he can really talk to without having to worry over the consequences of what he says.

❧ Robin of Loxley is born to the Earl of Huntington and his wife, the Lady of Huntington. He has an older sister of several years, Prudence Melinda, named after their mother's sister and thus only called Melinda.
❧ At 14, Robin loses his parents to a strain of influenza. He is set to inherit the earldom, but his uncle acts as regent until he is ready for the title.
❧ At 16, Robin inherits the earldom.
❧ Only a few months later, the new Earl of Huntington is called to war. He leaves his sister in charge of the lands in his stead.
❧ Robin returns three years later, 19 years old, and finds that things have turned on their head. His lands have been repossessed and title stripped. His sister, with nowhere to go, has married their widower uncle for protection without Robin's presence. All of Nottingham is in turmoil over the sheriff's conduct and power backed by the prince.
❧ After the fuss Robin kicks up over all this, he is quickly branded an outlaw and barely escapes with the clothes on his back and his personal warhorse, Penelope. He sets himself up in Sherwood Forest and begins a plan to protect his people.
❧ Robin Hood is born. He concocts plans to steal from the rich in order to redistribute to the poor and, along the way, meets and befriends a giant of a man called Little John, who soon becomes his second-in-command. This is the start of the Merry Men.
❧ Several others join the group, among them being Friar Tuck, whom Robin outwitted and forced to carry him across the river... before he was promptly tossed back in. Perhaps most notable is Will Scarlet, Robin's previously estranged elder cousin. Thanks to Melinda's marriage, Will is also Robin's nephew — a fact neither of them let each other forget. Will takes his place as Robin's third-in-command.
❧ Among their many exploits, Robin frequently encounters the Maid Marian. Through their numerous meetings of happenstance (and some not-so-happenstance), the two begin to fall in love, although the young Robin seems to be waiting for something or other before moving too far.
❧ At the age of 20, Robin meets Prince James in something of a botched hijack attempt. They meet several more times over the years, generally only when business is necessary, but take advantage of when they do meet.
❧ When he's 21, Robin seeks out a friar to aid Alan-a-Dale in his marriage and comes across... another Friar Tuck. With him is his charge, who also goes by Friar Tuck. Robin promptly numbers the three of them in order when they met (One, Two, and Three). The eldest two treat it as a game, much to Robin's endless frustration.
❧ The youngest of the Tucks disappears a seldom few months later. Robin overhears the eldest two speaking and is brought into the fold as to what happened: the third Tuck, whose name is actually Prince Charles III, was returned to his parents and soon placed under a prophesied curse that switched his sex.
❧ "Princess Charlotte" seeks aid from the Merry Men, whom she previously knows to be trustworthy, to stop the Prince Aragon from taking over her kingdom with his two giants. Robin, John and Will do so quite handily and Charlotte is offered in marriage to whichever of the three she chooses — Will becomes the lucky man. Robin claims impartiality on the subject of Charlotte's identity in order to keep from hurting his nephew or his former Merry Man.
❧ Robin is nearly 24 when the curse hits and he is transported into Storybrooke as Christopher Robin Coghlan.
