Sheriff of Nottingham - He is the governor of Nottingham but the official title is Sheriff. He wants to find and apprehend Robin Hood and stop his rebelion because he wants a higher post in the government and is ready to do eniting for more power. He he also abuses his post to get more riches and influence.

Atomic Punk - Sheriff of Nottingham

The Known Systems are an amalgam of competing governments. The situation is such that contemporary historians compare their days to those of earth during the Common Era of the mid-16th and 17th Centuries in society and attitude. The Kingdom and the French Empire are two rival superpowers.
The stargates are known as "locks" in The Kingdom. The Kingdom controlled a solar system with a sizeable number of locks. So many, they named the host world "Loxlie." It was a major hub of interstellar traffic. Now the French Empire's L'Arme des toiles occupies Loxlie.

So are the times. His Majesty and his heir Prince John controlling The Kingdom and the Environs. The Sheriff controlling the Nottingham system, the Outlands, and the tributaries beyond the Pale, along with their untold wealth. The French Empire cutting access to Loxlie and its stargates to all of the Known Systems. Rumour has that L'Arme des toiles is amassing its forces on Loxlie in preparation for open war against The Kingdom. Other powers are appealling for peace, if not only so the French will re-open the trade lanes.

It is during these times, there lives a band of idealists and rogues who seek to overthrow the whole system. Robin Hood and his Merry Men are based in an underground complex somewhere within the Known Systems, possibly beyond the Pale. With interstellar war on the horizon, they fight on all fronts. Whether hacking computer systems, leading a protest in Trafalgar, duelling in aerospace, or slogging through the mud, they will fight.
One weapon that the Merry Men have acquired is the mecha. The anthropomorphic tanks that were once reserved for the warrior nobles known as Knights. Their appearance has become more common with the invention of Lancer Rooms. There is no longer need for on-board pilots with this virtual simulator. It allows a single pilot to control every aspect of a mecha through cybernetic interface from a secure location.

His Majesty originally entrusted the Sheriff to protect the mineral rich system of Nottingham and its trade routes. Though Nottingham has no habitable worlds, it is considered the Key to The Kingdom. Without its endless supplies of ores, gasses, and exotic materials, The Kingdom's star would surely fall.
By shrewdly manipulating finances and treaties, the Sheriff dominates several systems. In the Outlands, he speaks for His Majesty. Beyond the Pale, his word is Law. He keeps the Systems in line through political coalitions, heavy taxation, and brute force when necessary.
Nottingham is a master manipulator who plays all sides against each other. Though he has many enemies, his chief rival is His Majesty's son, Prince John. The two have been known to set aside their differences if only to fight King Louis XXXIV of the French Empire or that pesky rogue, Robin Hood.
Sheriff Nottingham rules the Systems from a palatial Dreadnaught class starship christened The Nottingham. One of the greatest vessels of any age, The Nottingham is a battleship and invasion platform. The complement of Royal Marines on board is vastly outnumbered by the Sheriff's own private army. The Sheriff's most elite force is his wing of Gisbourne-class LAMs (Land-Air Mechas).

The future. (2099, if you will)

On the planet New Nottingham.

Robert Benjamin Lok, the multi-billion heir of Lok Intergalactic, returns from war, after having been conscripted into the Peace Keepers force. He returns to find his father dead and his inheritance having been seized by the state. Whilst he was away, the quadrant's provisional government made a play for power and succeeded. The people are suffering due to increased taxation, and Rob has no power to help them. Whilst going through some of his family's treasures (having been thrown out by Lok Intergalactic's new C.E.O, Gigiz Bourne) he finds a book; Robin Hood, more man than myth - by William Lok (his father). From it he learns of the Robin Hood tale, and that he may even be a descendant of the man himself.

Right there, Rob is motivated to help the people as his ancestor did. Taking up base in amongst the the Sher trees; he crafts a costume using remnants his PKF uniform and whatever he can find / "borrow". Armed with proton arrows and a handy blade-bow, he then goes about avenging the people as... Robin Hood.

With this line-up; the Moral Economically Redistribution Revolution Yoke become loved by the people and loathed by the government - in particular, New Nottingham's self-appointed Sherif authority. For months, the men (and woman) of M.E.R.R.Y. are a thorne in his side, which burrows into a pain in his back. The latest in a series of traps he sets for them backfires, however this one results in them capturing him. After being held for a few days, the outlaws dicuss what to do with him; ransom, hostage, show trial. Until it seems they're decision is made for them, when Gigiz is annouced the new Sheriff. Rob, having observed the devestated at the speediness of replacal, desides to conscripe the (ex-)Sheriff into the group: attaching to his armour a charge - activated at signs of betrayal or Rob's death. So now forced to help his mortal enemy, saving the people whom he'd rather not... The Sheriff of Nottingham, completes the team.

Gargoyle323 - Sheriff of Nottingham

GeneH - Sith of Nottingham

Hammerknight - Sheriff of Nottingham

... When the large businesses back on Earth found out how good trade was in the colonies, they decided they wanted their share. One of these businesses was the Sheriff Corp. The owner of the company was a worthless business man that had no feeling for the little man. If it wasn't making him money, he wanted it out of his way. Some say that his son was even worse, and that is why Jr was sent to Nottingham.

Haxxx - Sheriff of Nottingham

The robotic Sheriff is cold and calculated, obeying all the orders of the current ruler. His dreadful eyes shine from the blank black screen and hunt Robin wherever he may go. Some say that the Sheriff's protocols had been so radically modified that his AI has gone mad. So mad infect that he actually is now pulling the strings on King John, his "master controller", to allow him to act on his own.

Imp - Sheriff of Nottingham

Sheriff Roger Lacey: The Imperial Marshalls are the internal peace-keeping forces of the Empire. In this time of strife, certain Sheriffs (the heads of the various Sector Marshalls) have declared martial law... and sometimes worse. One of these is Roger Lacey, the Sheriff of Nottingham. No friend of the current Emperor (since Lacey's ancient House/Corporation was disgraced and disbanded two decades ago), Lacey has set himself up as the virtual dictator of two Sectors, Covington and Nottingham.

Jean - Commander Robert Renault of the Battleship Nottingham

Second in command on the battleship Nottingham, Renault has considerable dislike for Locke, not the least reason being that he was passed over as captain of the Sherwood for him. His resentment has led him to try to apprehend Locke and his crew several time but so far without success.

Renault is smart and devious and believes he's a better leader than he really is. He resents having to be second to Captain Guy Brisbaine and will try to undermine the captain's orders if he thinks he ca get away with it. He's obsessed with capturing the Sherwood and will make any attempt to do so, even to the point of endangering his crew and command. (note:Robert de Rainault is one of several names given to the Sheriff and the one I've chosen as being the most accurate to the timeline.)

Kyle - Sheriff of Nottingham

Me, Myself, and I - Robin's Rifts: Sheriff of Nottingham

One Sherriff Left

That of course was from the perspective of the people from the medieval Earth; there was of course another perspective and that was from the invaders themselves. The invaders likewise came from Earth and in fact the very same island of England. This of course seems improbable without one vital piece of information. A few select people from this advanced world were shocked to learn that different dimensions not only existed but could be travelled to using some of the newest technology developed. The development was an accident really as they were actually trying to find a quicker way to get to other planets than with their current space transport. They had squandered their resources and despite their tremendous advances in technology were in danger of their civilization collapsing unless they could find ways to secure other sources of supply. As things were, it would take a dozen generations to get to a new inhabitable solar system to colonize and their civilization was likely to break into civil war far before then. Though the other planets of the Sol system still had some useful resources left they were difficult and dangerous to mine.

One of the unfortunate realizations of this discovery was that these other dimensions must have resources that were desperately needed in their world. It did not take long for a man named William Brewer, who was then the Sherriff of the metropolis of Nottingham, to realize the potential. He discretely seized the science facility and its support staff, under the protective umbrella of the law, where the technology had been developed. Of course he terrorized anyone aware of the new technology enough to prevent them from talking. Those that did not succumb to their fear simply went missing. The technology was far from completely understood so they had only managed to successfully transport to and from one other dimension. Naturally they called their own dimension the prime dimension where the new dimension was dubbed the mirror dimension. After some investigation William realized how inferior the Mirror dimensions technology really was and how week it would be. In less than a year William had amassed a mercenary company to invade the new dimension.

The Sherriff now had, what called ‘his scientists’, working on not only finding new dimensions but also weaponizing the technology. They were able to develop a sort of personal shield which sent incoming weaponry fire, be it energy weapons or old style slug projectiles, into the void between dimensions. This technology he likewise claimed for himself. As the Sherriff’s personal cybernetics had an immensely strong power source he was able to install the new dimensional shield on himself giving him incredible protection.

Except for the new dimensional armour, William outfitted all of his men with the best arms and armour available and sent them through the dimensional rift. Within the first week William met the mirror dimensions Sherriff of Nottingham; a man named William de Wendenal and his right hand Sir Guy of Gisbourne as the. William de Wendenal saw the way the tide was turning and, being a scheming man, went to offer his services to the other side. William Brewer was surprised to see how much like him this new man William was. The idea of two of him in the same dimension, scheming away, was rather scary really. William de Wendenal was slain that very afternoon leaving just one Sherriff of Nottingham.

At fist the plan went well, until The Sherriff ran afoul of a group of local dissidents who called themselves ‘The Merry Men’ of all things. They were supposedly led by an equally ridiculously named man called Robin ‘Hood’. These self professing freedom fighters kept steeling the resources that William’s men had been harvesting and their guerrilla tactics were becoming increasingly frustrating. He was going to have to start to escalate matters and set up a second residence in the mirror dimension to manage the affairs personally.

Myro - Captain Cheryl F. Nottingham

However, all is not well on the homefront, between the rise of piracy commited by Robyn Hood and her Lively Ladies aboard their ship, Sherwood, and also the vocal opposition of Squire Marion, a popular member of Richard’s cabinet, both of which may undo Joan’s rule.

Captain Cheryl F. Nottingham

Captain Nottingham has been a career military officer, daughter to a family of career military officers. She is also the central figure to the bombardment of the planet of Andora IV during the war that resulted in the deaths to a significant force of the enemy, while also resulting in heavy friendly fire casualties. Short on good news in the face of a series of losses, the military had Nottingham exonerated of wrong doing, and pronounced the battle as a major victory in the public eye. Nottingham was reassigned to the Home Guard, where it was thought she would do less harm, but kept her rank and command.

When Robyn Locksley attempted to blow the whistle on the cover-up involved in the battle, Nottingham became acquainted with Robyn’s name. However, to Nottingham’s benefit, the military managed to sweep Lieutenant Locksley under the carpet. However, once Robyn had become a pirate, Joan had Captain Nottingham assigned to capture or destroy the Sherwood and her crew, as Princess Joan had come to admire Captain Nottingham’s ruthlessness.

On Nottingham’s first personal encounter with Robyn Hood, it was revealed that Captain Nottingham was responsible for the attack against Andora IV. Robyn fired a parting shot from her pistol at Nottingham, and managed to hit the captain in the eye, resulting in blindness in that eye.

Rancid - Sheriff of Nottingham

Rozenstal - Sheriff of Nottingham

TJ - Sheriff of Nottingham

Sherriff of Nottingham

Once a great leader he has fallen for the ways of the prince and has become his chief advisor and has been charged with "enforcring the law of the crown" and capturing Loxly and his band. He is also madly infatuated with Marian.

Von Malcolm - Commandant of Nottingham

In an effort to stay the growing chaos in its own Outerstellar Nation in Sagittarius, the central Quantum Computer invaded the other six Quantum Computers that run Sagittarius Nexus* and declared itself King. ‘Prince John’, as the ambitious computer is disrespectfully referred to by its disloyal subjects, is ruthlessly stomping out all opposition to its rising reign of terror. In one particularly remote system, Starwood, a group of vandals Merrily resists its edicts. Despite its massive artificial brain that encompasses the entire central governing planet of Nottingham and its Powerful Avatar that can leave ‘The Nottingham Stars’, Prince John cannot track and capture the ‘Robbing Hoods’ -or as it prefers to call them: ‘The Robbing, Raping, Rapscallion Hoods’.

Prince John doesn’t know that the Robbin’ Hood, despite being the leader of the Band of Hellions, isn’t the true mastermind behind the gang’s crimes: the misfit Much the Miner’s Son is: Too Much’s asinine plans are the main reason why Prince John’s Avatar and its accompanying Androids always fail to capture The Merry Robbing Hoods. The other reason for the Robbing Hoods’ ‘Much Luck’ is the nobility of The Commandant of Nottingham: Though he has little sympathy for the hoodlums of Starwood, The Commandant of Nottingham, affectionately referred to as ‘Sheriff’ by the Robbing Hoods, has little faith in the megalomaniacal computer in charge. The Sheriff needs all of his dozens of eyes and sensory organs to watch his enemies at his front and his ‘allies’ at his back.

The Noble Sheriff of Nottingham is stuck in between too forces: The Autocratic Law of a Power-Tripping Computer and the Destructive Chaos of a Greedy Band of Interstellar Thieves. His loyalties are being tested further as Mad Maid Marian left his main Enforcer of Starwood, Sir Guy of Abyss-Born, at the Altar. This is a common practice for Mad Maid Marian, the ultimate tease of the galaxy. She had promised Sir Guy that she would leave her evil ways, that she could convince the Merry Band of Criminals to turn their backs on their Villainy, but that’s what she tells all of the boys. Many a time has she sold her Precious Virginity on the Black Market, only for her and her crew to rob and/or murder the unfortunate John. Many a time has she promised her hand in marriage only for her an her crew to take the dowry and run, her most powerful Mark being Prince John itself: thus its name: John (it used to be X4RTi Prime). Now Sir Guy has gone Mad (following Prince John’s lead); no longer a dignified officer working under the Strict Discipline of the Commandant or the even Stricter Order of King John, he is a Bounty Hunter who has taken to wearing the skins and skulls of his captures: his Most Wanted quarry: the Robbing Hoods.
