Farseer Buck / Buck of Buckkeep
Members of the royal family of Farseers as well as many men-at-arms in Buckkeep castle wear different kinds of emblems displaying a buck.
- A buck's head was reserved for Regal and Verity - Fitz wore it originally too, but with a diagonal slash of red stitching that marked him a bastard.
- A leaping buck is used by Burrich and other men-at-arms (unless they are part of a special guard like the Queens's Guard)
- A buck with his antlers lowered to charge is what Verity designs as Fitz's own crest before he leaves for the Mountain Kingdom for the first time.
- Regal's crest as a king was a buck leaping over Farrow's golden oak.
The royal family and their servants use a special blue shade of blue often called "Buckkeep blue".
