But what if a list is never going to be right, because it's a list? You can't list everything about a character that could be changed in an AU. People are way too complicated for that.
And I'd argue that CND is implicit in the iconic image of Robin Hood you're trying to invoke. People would parse disabled!Robin as an AU Robin Hood, and the image is even more consistently abled than the average character.
He's famous for being an archer.
Fair point.
Which was hilarious in one story I read where Robin was mediocre and Maid Marian was the crack shot.
Outlaws of Sherwood? The one where the entire Saxon race can be romantically and symbolically hanged by the neck until dead?
