humanoid male, belongs to Robinhood (characters list) A greedy clergyman considered typical of local churches in the times of Robin Hood. Absent for hundreds of years as to not offend the churched. In modern times, authors are not as squeamish about offending the Catholic Church as they once were. So this character is starting to be featured in Robin Hood tales again. The low opinion of many local clergymen during the age is well documented. Martin Luther wrote: We have no slight reasons for treating the Catechism so constantly [in sermons] and for both desiring and beseeching others to teach it, since we see to our sorrow that many pastors and preachers are very negligent in this, and slight both their office and this teaching; some from great and high art (giving their mind, as they imagine, to much higher matters], but others from sheer laziness and care for their paunches, assuming no other relation to this business than if they were pastors and preachers, for their bellies' sake, and had nothing to do but, to [spend and] consume their emoluments as long as they live, as they have been accustomed to do under the Papacy.
