    '''Appearance:''' Rowan has that faraway look about her all the time, reminding people of a lost, delicate sparrow rather than a healthy, alert teenager. Her layered, short crop is just beginning to grow out of its cut, and the curls add a sort of ‘wildness’ to her dazed look. Despite her efforts at looking and keeping neat, Rowan’s cheeks and fingers are almost always ink smudged, her hair pins slightly askew and her clothes ruffled. She carries an olive green messenger bag with her a lot.
