Guy is the right hand man of Abbott Hugo and it was under orders from the Abbott that caused Robin of Loxley to become an outlaw. On numerous occasions he has attempted to capture Robin and failed, this is when the Sheriff was brought in under the direct orders of Prince John. Guy is an adequate warrior but tends to have more bravado when he has his men backing him up when he is alone he is less than brave. Guy is cousin to the Sheriff and has no problem using the Sheriffs name to gain favors or intimidate. Guy despises the peasants and lords his position over them when at all possible, he is known as a man not to cross because he will have his men beat you senseless if you do.
Guy is not beyond cheating or lying to gain the upper hand but he often does not think be for acting and this often causes him problems. He has failed in a few tasks given to him and has taken the derision heaped upon him by the Sheriff. The Abbott tolerates him (he is an excellent spy in Prince johns court) and since he is technically the Abbott's man he is protected in so much as his life is concerned. Guy is madly in love with Fair Ellen who was promised to him by the Abbot Hugo, but is oblivious to Lady Ilene's advances.
