User blog:Sam Shellhound/Essay: Robin Hood and the Shellhound.

This is my first essay and blog post so constructive criticism would be appreciated.

Has anyone else noticed that in High Ruhlain, Leatho Shellhound is quite a bit like Robin Hood? Lets look at the evidence.

Point one: Both are masters of their chosen weapons. Robin: Bow Leatho: Sling. Point two: Both claim to fight for the oppressed. Robin: The peasants/poor. Leatho: The otter slaves. Point three: Both have large groups at their command. Robin: His merry men. Leatho: The otter clans Point four: Both are presented as cheerful and kind, but will hesitate to fight.

Point five: Both have a constant companion named for his size. Robin: Little John. (Before I get yelled at, his name was John little. They called him Little John as a joke. Thus, because of his size.) Leatho: "Big" Kulon Galedeep.

That is five points. I might add more if I can think of any. If you can think of some for this, please comment. Your welcome to write a rebuttal to this if you wish. Any advice is welcome.

I'm not sure I'm posting this right... but I'll soon find out! ]]
