Little John
Before joining Robin Hood's band Little John worked as Nottingham’s trusted leather tanner. He is a strong leader and excellent teacher. As a result, despite his absence, his shop is still bustling as his apprentice, Briceus Brown, outfits the villagers with all of their saddle, sheath, and harness needs. He receives exclusive rights to purchase animal hides from his good friend Hugh Jeego, the village butcher. Although he goes by “Little John” his physical size and empathetic heart stretch far beyond that title.
Lady Christabel
