Branwen Tribe

The Branwen Tribe is a group of bandits that operate in Mistral led by Raven Branwen.

Background
It is unknown when the tribe organized. Both Qrow Branwen and Raven were raised in the tribe that consisted, according to Qrow, of murderers and thieves. The two left the tribe and attended Beacon Academy as part of team STRQ. Raven eventually returned to the tribe and became its leader, but Qrow did not, having grown to dislike their lifestyle of pillaging and murder. The current Spring Maiden, Vernal, joined the tribe after running away from her responsibility of being a Maiden.

Present Day
The tribe does whatever it takes to survive, holding a Darwinistic view. They are responsible for multiple raids on villages, like Shion.

They normally don’t deal in trafficking people, but after capturing Weiss Schnee, they decided otherwise.
