''Robyn Hood'' is an updating of the RobinHood legend from Xenoscope comics; part of their ''ComicBook/GrimmFairyTales'' universe.
As Shang single handedly storms a temple in Myst, he discovers a small child within. He confers with the Council of the Five Realms as opposed to her fate, but every member agrees that she must be killed (referring to the Jabberwocky, another such child that was saved). Shang cannot bring himself to do this, believing that the child has the potential to live a better life and takes her to Earth where she is left on the doorstep of a family that will come to raise her. The family is not without its own problems and one day Robyn comes home to find her adoptive mother dead (likely at the hands of her adoptive father, though this is not identified explicitly.) She is put into foster care and bounces around the system until she ends up in a normal high school. By this point in her life she has made a point of standing up to those that use power to intimidate or the corrupt and in so doing she confronts Cal King, the most popular guy in school, who is partially so because his father runs the town. She steals his car and and races away but she is eventually caught and he cuts out her left eye as punishment. Meanwhile a group of people in Myst desire a protector, and eventually using magic they reach out to her and pull her into Myst.
In Myst, Robyn meets an undead woman who tells her that she will become what the the people of the land require. She journeys through the kingdom of King John and discovers a wide range of poverty and despair. She begins to live off of the land and after some time is confronted by Little John. She also soon meets his companions who become her group of Merry Men. They train for a while before deciding on a campaign of revenge, retribution and revolution against the evil King. She is captured after taking part in a contest but escapes and manages to kill the King, thus freeing the people from his tyrranical rule. She talks with a woman named Marian who directs her to a portal back to Earth.
Robyn returns to find the man that raped her, first killing his two best friends and then seemingly killing his father before confronting him. He shocks her by revealing that he had even forgotten who she was and that him raping her was not even worth remembering. She drags him outside and kills him as well. When leaving she confronts two police officers and attacks them, but realizes although they were complicit in her rape that they are not exactly guilty either. Instead she gets them to call the sheriff in for backup who was partially responsible for a lack of justice in her case. She kills him and then leaves, though it is revealed that the father did not die. She travels to New York City and steals from a bank on Wall Street and throws the money in the air before leaving to discover herself after she realizes that her campaign of revenge has not left her satisfied.
On the run as an outlaw. Robyn eventually has an encounter with Britney (a.k.a. 'Red Riding Hood'), who attempts to bring her in. Their encounter ultimately ends in a stalemate with Britney agreeing to stop hunting her, but the truce will be void if Robyn kills another human. Robyn tells Britney that she knows that what she has done to get into this situation was not necessarily right, but she doesn't regret her actions, no matter how they haunt her.
