Tin Man...did not think of that one. I fell off this Wiki's bandwagon a while ago. I was going with Hook based on his gloved right hand and the way it is so far heavily implied by the information we have from the trailer and are gaining from the episodes that Ironwood is in some way involved with Cinder. Or else Roman really is the best damn thief in Vale to rip off one of these new Paladins from Ironwood.

My theory about Ironwood being Hook was the right hand which we appear to agree is probably prosthetic and the way he's a military leader. I don't know anything about Oz outside of the very old movie and a few more variations popped out in Once Upon A Time, so I didn't know that Tin Man became a leader himself. I am still waiting for Ironwood to say "bad form" even with all this new information coming to light. I was rather excited by the idea of Captain James Hook and the Wizard of Oz being old friends.
