It is said that Robin Loxley went with king Richards to fight in the third crusade but returned from service. This could mean that the third crusade went on for many years after robin came home and wrought havoc or he returned with king Richard, at which time the lionheart went off to lead another crusade and robin stayed, the facts aren't clear mate.
"Robin Hood stole from the rich and gave to the poor." That's the usual line, and it's misleading. Robin Hood didn't "steal from the rich". He attacked the king's tax collectors, taking money back for the people from whom it was "stolen" (taxed). Robin Hood was fighting unjust taxation, not "wealth".
If I were Robin Hood, I would try and seduce Maid Marian. I don't think she was the sort of woman who liked to be spanked. Most woman would slap someone in the face, if they got spanked.
The Death of Robin HoodOne of the famous stories of Robin's death goes like this:It was nearly evening when Robin Hood and Little John (one of Robin's merry men) were returning from a hunt when Robin started to feel sick and fever quickly took over. Robin then asked Little John to take him to the Kirklees Priory where his cousin the prioress worked.When Robin Hood arrived at the Priory Gatehouse he was taken up stairs to a private room. The prioress then opened up one of Robins veins and left him alone in till the next evening. On the way out prioress locked the door no one knows why she did it may of been because she cared for him or for some other reason. When Robin Hood was in his weak state Sir Roger of Donkestere (who may have been in love prioress) climbed through the window and stabbed Robin Hood in the arm. Robin Hood then swang his sword and beheaded Roger in one swing. Robin now dying from Exanguinating Haemorrhage grabbed his horn and blew 3 times for Little John who was waiting in the forest for news of his master. John under stood this and barged through the doors of the Gatehouse panicking because he could tell that Robin Hood was in a weak state because of how weak he blew in the horn. When he reached Robins room he saw that Robin was dying and said that he would burn down the Gatehouse and kill all the nuns that were in the gatehouse at the same time. Robin told John not to because he had never harmed a woman in his life. Robin asked John to pass him his bow and that he would shoot it out the window and were ever it landed John would need to bury Robin. After Robin shoot the arrow that travelled 594 meters Robin died. John then left to complete his master's last command. :(
That is a subject of much debate among historians. It is generally conceded today, that he did not "steal from the rich and give to the poor", he stole from everyone and kept ever penny of it. But he is seem by some as a force against the evils of the government of the time, and by other researchers he is seen as a plain old garden-variety thug. Take your pick.

Question is not clear. Do you mean "Why was Robin Hood considered an invented story rather than a historical fact?" or "Why did Robin Hood achieve status as a legend rather than other outlaws?" I deal with the latter question both in my Midwest Folklore article "Jesse James as Robin Hood" and the "Afterward" to my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles. The appeal of Robin Hood is that he was a scamp who could make you laugh while he was robbing you.-- Sam Sackett
