By being unable to conceive of lawbreaking as a good action.How do you ever class him as Evil period?

If you take the Sheriff of Notingham to have held legitimate authority under the King (John) then Robin and his outlaw gang are in open rebellion.How do you ever class him as Evil period?
My mates thinking was Robin Hood never speaks with Centaurs but Robin Hood spend the majority of his time in Sherwood Forest, in A Dnd Campaign set in A Version of England were Robin Hood is real the ability to speak with other sentient forest dwelling races would occasionally get Robin Hood allies and because even the most remote of Wood Elf communities have at least 1 member that can speak the common language The Centaur Language was the obvious choiceMy helpful comment - alignment sucks just ignore it. Robin Hood however is not evil, so if you must make him Neutral
For your stats I’d put Wis higher than Int
And Centaur language? I dunno if Robin Hood had that many conversations with Centaurs
Yes. Dungeon #82, Sep-Oct 2000, “Dark Times in Sherwood“ by Ian Malcomson. Dungeon #82 was the first issue in 3e rules.Dragon Magazine did a good campaign look at Sherwood and the Robin Hood game, I think back in 3e days.
In the case of The TV Show its how I judge his actions and morale, which over the course of the tv show go down hill at roughly the same rate as his life, meaning always at least once a season and usually at least twice a seasonHow do you ever class him as Evil period?
It says a code of "tradition, loyalty, or order". It is neither traditional nor legal to rob the rich, and Robin is not acting under orders from someone else.Amusingly, under that definition you could have a reasonable argument for lawful evil Robin Hood. He takes what he wants, within the limits of his code that says he must take it from the rich, and give it to the poor.
Disregarding the Sheriff's legitimate authority isn't in itself evil, it's chaotic.If you take the Sheriff of Notingham to have held legitimate authority under the King (John) then Robin and his outlaw gang are in open rebellion.
Sure the taxes might be harsh and the Sheriff a lecherous tyrant but does that justify Robin attacking innocent nobles and tax collectors who are just doing their job?
And who are these ‘poor’ he’s helping? More bandits and rebels who refuse to support the Kings war with the French?
I guessed someone would say this eventually so to ensure that I was prepared for when someone did say this I asked my mate well in advance, as in almost 6 hours in advance. Below is what he said. Your thoughtsDisregarding the Sheriff's legitimate authority isn't in itself evil, it's chaotic.
Robin Hood is willing to follow the law as long as it is just. He's loyal to king Richard. But during prince John's regency, he rebelled against the lawful (albeit evil, self-serving) regime.
Pretty sure that counts as Chaotic not evil.If you take the Sheriff of Notingham to have held legitimate authority under the King (John) then Robin and his outlaw gang are in open rebellion.

Refusing to accept Legitimate Authority is generally Chaotic.I guessed someone would say this eventually so to ensure that I was prepared for when someone did say this I asked my mate well in advance, as in almost 6 hours in advance. Below is what he said. Your thoughts
My mate's answer is that in his opinion Robin Hood has decided that Prince Johns action count as seizing the throne, which is treason, and laws passed by a traitor that has seized the throne, even if prior to his treason he was running the country on behalf of the rightful king, aren't legal, and anyone that tries to enforce them, which includes The Sheriff, is a criminal, which means that he/Robin, isn't a criminal, the law enforcement people are
