Ulfred
Rhymes with (and means) "wolf rede".
A freeborn Saxon farmer and archer in the Crusades who returned from the Holy Land to find his own land claimed by the crown in his absence, being without legitimate heir and alleged dead. Left with nothing but a renewed grudge against the Norman rulers, he took up poaching and banditry and soon joined the Sherwood outlaws.
Generally sullen and cynical in disposition, but has a wry sense of gallows humor and tends to cheer up under pressure.
