House Black

House Black is a large Vandal House that makes its home inside the large Lucernian city of Forks. House Black was the sworn house of House Swan during the events of the Driving Tide, and thus when there master was uplifted they became a vassal house, and found their position in the city was dramatically increased. House Black like House Yernese is very loyal to House Swan, and they can always be counted on to side with House Swan in most arguments.

House Black came to be the sworn house of House Swan following the Patriarch of House Black losing a drinking contest to John Swan of whome was silently a very intelligent man of which the leader of House Black had no idea about. Following this they followed House Swan into the Driving Tide where though they were skeptical at first they gained great trust in House Swan after the victory they achieved, and then the fact that they took over Forks from House Tyrell the previous Lord of the city. In a position of dominance following their promotion to vassal house they begin to take control of the military forces that were required for the defence of the city. Over the years House Black would become the major source of military forces for their master in House Swan, and this power meant that they could have sat on their power and simply existed in riches but their leadership decided to attempt to grow further. In order to do this they begin to uplift their sworn house in House Mangles into a position where they were the personal smiths that existed in the city.
