Legendary medieval outlaws include Eustace and Monk, Hereward the Wake, and Gamelyn, to name just a few. Gamelyn, unlike the other two, is almost certainly a fictional character through and through. After his father dies, Gamelyn and his inheritance are pinned under the thumb of his eldest brother. When Gamelyn rebels, he must flee to the woods, while his brother becomes the sheriff. For the full story on Gamelyn, and how his legend relates to Robin Hood's, you can check out the blog article at the link below.
