## Biography

### Background

Rosemary was born on December 11, 1174 to Jane and Dan Scarlett, who just called her Mary for short. Mary was fast friends with her older brother, but she would always get into fights with her younger brother, Luke. This would change many years later after their father would die in 1193 and their brother would become an outlaw. Through Dan being the family friend of the Locksley family, Mary was friends with Robin when she was twelve years old and he was twenty-four.

When war broke in the Middle-east, known as the Crusades, Mary strongly opposed the Crusades. Mary was also unhappy to learn that Much and Robin would go to fight in the Crusades, abandoning Marian unintentionally. Two years before Robin's return, Mary's mother died of starvation. The year before her death, Mary was now under rule of a new lord of Locksley, Guy of Gisborne.

She went to Marian for her advice, but Gisborne had followed her all the way and informed Mary that she could not leave as she pleased. Marian luckily intervened and said that she sent for Mary. Guy was alright with it, if Marian would ask next time if she required Mary's presence, or anyone else.
