One of
Robin Hood's legendary Merry Men.
Treguard meets and befriends him on his way to Dunshelm (in the
Can You Beat The Challenge? novella), and learns that although Little John is a variation on his real name of Paul Littlejohn, he is in actuality a tall man.
Little John and four cohorts accompany Treguard when he rides out in search of the abducted
Folly and the magic
shield he needs to retake Dunshelm. A fierce battle ensues when they are attacked by Vestan (the murderer of Treguard's family) and his troops, but Little John helps Treguard keep a clear head amidst his burning thoughts of vengeance, and is one of only two Merry Men to survive the conflict. Sincere in his courage and loyalty, he is even willing to continue on to Dunshelm with Treguard and Folly afterwards.
The
Knightmare RPG Season 4 character of
Lance has been tentatively linked to Little John.
Team 9 of Series 5 named Little John and Friar Tuck when asked by
Gwendoline to give the names of two of the Merry Men.
