That’s is pretty close to the words I used to introduce Little Brown to the players in the online Tails of Equestria Role playing group for which I have drawn all the characters I’m posting these days.
The name Little Brown is an obvious alusion to Little John from the Robin Hood legends. While Robin Hood legends provide a good part of the inspiration for the current adventure knowledge of these stories will be of little help to the players of the group to solve the tasks and mysteries in our own adventure ;)
Son to a charcoal burner and a blacksmith (crafts that complement each other nicely as a kind of family business) Little Brown is the lumberjack and carpenter of Trottingham in our RPG setting. He also is the special somepony with Funny Feathers, the owner of the big barrel tavern in Trottingham. Beyond that more details about Little Brown must remain secret at this time to avoid any spoilers for players in our group.
As always with the characters there is also a version with reduced opacity of the drawing that lets the parchment texture shine through.
