Robin Gabriel Loxley was born to Lord Harold Loxley and Lady Henrietta Maxwell, he was a very loved child, he grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth loved and cherished by all around him. He was raised as a proper gentlemen from the start. Lord Loxley a prominent member of the British Parliament, made sure his son had the greatest of tutors and fashions presented to him. Robin had no idea behind closed door's his father was a cheating scoundrel.
Most of his early years were spent at school or with his mother, while on holiday with his mother he overheard a phone call his mother was having while he was pentending to be asleep in the back seat, he heard his mother yell at his father for 'Naming their angel after that whore.' He sat up and screamed for his mother to look out, but it was too late, she slammed into a wall the force of the blow knocked Robin out for a matter of days. When he came too, his father was there apologizing over and over, his mother didn't make it.
For Robin, his childhood in the sunshine had died. At least that's how he felt it was he watched her get buried and returned to school deciding to hang around the nerds of his school finding a strong love for Star Wars. Anytime he was upset he would sit and watch the movie, he also started collecting figures for it too, his favorite was an unopened Han Solo that a friend sold him for way to much. It was a first release from when the movie was still new.
Then he was called home, the manner was all decorated up. Why? For the wedding of Lord Loxley and his lady Gabriella Scarlett. Suddenly Robin understood it all, why his mother was cross what made her take her mind off the road. He decided he would smoother her before she could take his father, as a noble's child no one could touch him... but when he snuck into the sleeping woman's quarters he saw the toddler in her bed. Little William, He had no idea he had a brother, his father had planned to surprise him with it but didn't know how to break it to the boy without setting him off.
Lady Scarlett almost freaked out when she came in and found young Robin sitting on the floor and her baby no where to be found, as she grew closer and looked over his shoulder she saw Will asleep in his lap as Robin was humming to him. Noticing her the older boy smiled telling her that he had a beautiful little brother and new mother, asking her to please treat him kindly and make father happy.
The two years he stayed home asking for private tutors once more so he could spend all of his free time when not working on his studies or archery which he was fantastic at, by the way. he was around the child teaching it useless nerdy information. He loved his life around the boy, though his stepmother never fully warmed up to him, another woman's child bearing her name was a lot to swollow. He would take care Will a lot when she wanted time to rest so they had a peaceful harmony until Robin turned 12.
His father wished to put him in the national archery competition, which feel the same day as Will's 5th birthday. Robin put his foot down showing his arrogant side telling his father to shove it, he and lady Scarlett had a party to plan and he would not be in London on his brother's birthday, but Lord Loxley had already been falling out of love with Lady Scarlett now that they had been married two years and he didn't care about a second son since he already had an heir.
So he sent them away, telling Scarlett that her and her bastard had warped Robin into rebelling against him. Robin had dashed as fast as he could apologizing and begging Lady Scarlett to forgive him he just wanted to make her and Will happy, before she could take her son away Robin shoved the unopened Solo figure into his baby brother's hands telling him happy birthday and that Han Solo would protect him.
His father's truth was he had already placed hundreds of bets on Robin willing the competition. He told Robin he would bring them home if he won, so Robin won, but his father had lied to him. Finding a older friend from school a few weeks later, John Little. Whose family owned the apartment Lady Scarlett and Will had found to live Robin asked John to keep an eye on his brother and send all of Lady Scarlett's rent notes to him. He felt guilty for the two being sent away.
He returned to school until he was 18, when he decided to cross the pond and go to collage in the united states, to Harvard no less.
by the time he turned 25 he returned home with a degree in law, a degree he would never use of course. Being from old money and no desire to follow in his father's footsteps in Parliament. He ahd spent most of that time in collage like in his old schools hanging out with star wars nerds, whop taught him everything he would ever need to know about computers and codes, in exchange for him teaching them archery. Anyway, when Robin got home he did the unexpected, He became a socialite, going to extravagant parties, mingling with Royalty and other nobility. He worked with as many charities as he could because while he was in America he saw a lot of homeless, and one homeless man nearly beaten to death, the man would have been too if Robin hadn't have stepped in and beat some ass. That day he emptied what money he had on him to the poor old man and paid his hospital bills too.
The man was a old hippy, and as he recovered each day Robin would listen to him speak about peace and the rich sharing with the poor, Robin swore to try to make the mans dream come true. So when Charity wasn't working, he invited a hacker group he jokingly calls his Merry Men. The group moved locations every few months and would steal thousands of dollars from the accounts of the rich and move it into homeless shelters or charity funds. It was all in the name of helping humanity.
One last thing Robin did when he returned was hunt down Lady Scarlett's grave, finding out from John about her suicide and paid to have a nice headstone put in, one better then the one his father had funded. He felt despite the man's guilt years later, he didn't deserve to have had Lady Scarlett or Will in his life.
