Guy of Gisburne

Sir Guy of Gisburne is the steward and right-hand man to the Sheriff of Nottingham and half-brother to Robert of Huntingdon.

Steward over the abbot's lands and gamekeeper of Sherwood, he is the chief military commander in the area. After a rocky start he gained the (limited) respect of Prince John. Later, it is revealed that he is the Earl of Huntingdon's illegitimate son and thus the second Robin's half-brother.

Personality
Self-identifying "a warrior and not a courtier", he is prone to disregard diplomacy and tact in favour of brute force but he is sometimes also able to use cunning. He resents the Sheriff for frequently taunting him and Robin for being the cause of these taunts. Guy has a short temper and will use violence to defend his honor.

Relationships
Sarah De Talmont: In the episode, "The Children of Israel", Guy becomes smitten with the young Jewish woman. The Sheriff uses the precedent of the Jewish massacre in York to stir up a riot, under cover of which he intends to murder the Jewish merchant. But Gisburne has other plans, ones that involve rescuing her family and making her his wife. However, his attempts to get her to agree are thrwarted as Sarah rejects him when he confesses his feelings for her, not wishing to be with a man who has blood on his hands in killing her own people.

Jennet of Elsdon: In the episode, "The Witch of Elsdon", Guy faked evidence and accused Jennet and her husband of Witchcraft because she rejected his advances.
