[b]Name:[/b] Maid Marian to most; Robin and the Sheriff call her Marian. [b]Age:[/b] 23 [b]Appearance:[/b] [IMG]http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/164/0/1/I_Love_You_Maid_Marian_by_grayloc.jpg[/img] [b]Weapon of Choice:[/b] She is a lady… but one hell of a sword fighter. [b]Background:[/b] The young noble woman lost her family in a dreadful fire that destroyed their land and property during her childhood. Her life was rather jagged before she was taking in by her father’s friend; unknown to her, her father worked closely with King Richard and the noble king took her in. She adapted to castle life well but always sought more freedom outside of the walls. The king’s brother, Prince John didn’t enjoy Maid Marian’s continuously wondering of the castle at random times, desperately seeking something to do. It didn’t take long before the Maiden decided she needed to explore more of the town. What happened to her parents? What caused the fire? The king didn’t keep that much of a ‘watchful eye’ on her because he understood that she was an adult who needed to do more than talk to the servants in the castle. Upon the taken of King Richard and Prince Job coming into power, Marian found more of a need to escape the castle; though it pained her to see what was happening in the streets. It wasn’t uncommon to find the brunette with blue eyes cloaked walking the streets of the town, trying to help where she could and being as unnoticed as possible; for she wasn’t sure what kind of consequences she would encounter from Prince John for doing a noble deed for desperate people. Marian’s want to be daring grew strong enough for her to consider walking out into the forest. ‘Maid Marian’ the Sheriff would say, ‘If you insist on going out into the forest, I insist that either I accompany you or one of my guards. No matter how pretty the flowers are outside of the castle walls, you shall not go alone.’ Whether this was King Richard’s worry for her, Prince John’s decree or the explanation for the looks she would catch at a glance from the Sheriff… who knows.
