Robin Hood RPG

I want to make a Bethesda sandbox FP style RPG about Robin Hood. How cool would it be to customize a character, join the Band of Merry Men, and go on adventures led by Robin Hood?! You'll probably have to prove yourself before you'll get to do anything really cool, like sneak into a castle. You're probably thinking, "No, fuck that. I want to BE Robin Hood!" Well I'm two steps ahead, douche. So you finally go on a big boy mission with Robin, and some big cool climactic story shit happens, and you loose track of Robin! The Band of Merry Men need a new leader, so you're elected to be in charge for now. After a while, they finally confirm that Robin Hood is dead and they let you in on a big secret: There is no Robin Hood, he's a made up character, a symbol used by the Band of Merry men to fight corruption in England. They need a new Robin Hood, and the have nominated your character. You can accept and bam! Now everyone loves you. Robin is a unisex name by the way, just FYI!

Now, what if I told you that you could backstab the Merry Man, or just go AWOL and join the Sherrif of Notingham? This guy could take you under his wing after you bring him a trophy from Robin. Now, you fight against the outlaws! Your buddy the sherrif lets you in on a secret, they know Robin Hood is not a real person, just a puppet used by the Band of Merry Men. Everyone knows, they just like to believe in heroes and legends.If you want, you can position yourself high up in the royal guard and by one way or another get rid do of the Sheriff and become the new Sheriff! How about that for choices, am I right?

That's what I really like about Public Domain. I could make that game, but change all the names. Once everyone found out it's a big allegory for Robin Hood, they'd just say "You should have called it Robin Hood instead of Dobin Jood or whatever. Why would I want to be this nobody you just fucking made up when I could be Robin Hood? Missed opportunity, I say.
