Dubhaine Family/The Black Swans

A small but professional detachment of Archers named for the black fletchings of their long-shafted arrows. Their field livery is woodland green with a black-enamelled swan brooch, worn over a close-fitting arming jack and quilted doublet, with a sable livery for dress occasions with a device on the right shoulder of a sable swan against a silver field.

Their primary weapon is the mighty yew bow, with which they are able to strike targets at exceptional range, but each archer also carries a heavy hunting knife for close-quarters work if such should become necessary.
