Slash
There is very, very little slash written in Robin of Sherwood fandom due to the creator's request that fans should not create them. See more at Robin of Sherwood Fandom and Slash Fanworks. However, what little slash there is appears to involve Nasir. This may be due to how fans translated Carpenter's loophole that his minor characters were fair game.
- The Stolen Rowboat by Rutterkin ("Every day upon waking the Saracen Nasir searched through Sherwood Forest for places where his stolen rowboat might be concealed. Without his rowboat he'd be marooned forever in fog-ridden England and never again see the sunny shores of his beloved Arabia.") (Playfellows #6)
