The Blind Archers are powerful beings that appear in Episode VII: Jack and the Three Blind Archers in which they guard a wishing well at the top of a tower.

Appearance

The Archers all have black, slim human bodies, but have a dog-like head instead of a human's. The eyes are completely white and the ears point straight up.

The blind archers

Origin

The Archers were originally three human warriors. The warriors travelled to the well of Ozric hoping it would grant their wish to become the greatest warriors. It granted their wish, but robbed them of their sight, minds, and free will, turning them into it's canine-like guardians.

Synopsis

The Archers first appear when Samurai Jack tries to reach the tower, hoping the well at the top would help him go back in time. Before he could make his attempt, an army of viking robots tried the same thing, but fell in a matter of seconds to the three mysterious Archers. Jack tried shortly after, but almost became a pin cushion several times. Before he fled, Jack discovered that they used their hearing and not their sight to find their targets. Jack learned how to use the same technique and managed to get past a shower of arrows and reach the top of the tower, only to be surrounded on all sides by the Archers. Just as they fired, Jack dodged all three, making the arrows collide, change direction, and hit each of the Archers, reverting them to their human forms and freeing them of the well. Just as Jack was going to use the well, the Archers stopped him and told him about how the well granted their wish, but at a terrible price. To make sure this didn't happen to anyone else, Jack destroyed the well and went on his way.

Precision and Accuracy: The Archers have unparalleled precision and accuracy and their shots never missed their target, until Jack came along.

Rapid Firing: The Archers can fire and reload at extreme speeds, and with unlimited arrows, they can create a rain of arrows in seconds.
