One day Robin was out looking for trouble and as he was crossing a log across a stream, he met up with a rather large man (Little John) going the other way. Neither would give way. Robin pulled out his bow and was going to shoot him but Little John didn't have a bow and arrow only a staff and he called Robin a coward. Robin had too much vanity for that so he went and cut himself a staff while Little John waited on the log for him. They then commenced a staff fight in which Little John plowed him into the river. Robin, not willing to look a complete fool, then changed tactics and tried being friendly.
There are two (that I know of) accounts of Friar Tuk.
1. The more ancient Welsh Ballads have Friar Tuk as a warrior monk. In those days, some monks took their religion much more practically. William The Conqueror's invasion force of England consisted of quite a few warrior monks. These monks had the commission to keep a certain district of Sherwood forest. Tuk also had a large pack of highly trained hunting dogs. Robin showed up one day to recruit him - an offer which the monk refused. They fell to fighting. Friar Tuk called on (whistled) his dogs to come help him. Robin blew on his horn for his merry men. The dogs fell to the arrows and to save the survivors Friar Tuk called a cease-fire and changed his alliance.
2. One day Robin was idling by a stream and a Friar came along and admonished Robin in the name of charity to carry him across the stream. Robin did so, but once on the other side Robin then required the monk to carry him back again. Half-way back the monk tossed him in. A heated discussion followed which ended up with Robin making another alliance.

∙ 13y agoWhile Robin Hood is possibly a real character or a composite of once living men, Maid Marian is not. She is a much more recent invention. Therefore the two never met.
