The Black Arrows eventually manage to rescue Joanna, and she is married to Richard. Ellis Duckworth later kills Sir Daniel Brackley with the last black arrow. Physically, Richard Shelton is described as "sun-browned and grey-eyed." Richard and the Black Arrows carried bows or crossbows, that fire black arrows. The distinctly colored weapons also serve as the group's calling card. The other members of the Black Arrows include Ducksworth, Will Lawless, Christopher "Kit" Greensheve and John Capper.
