"Crow and Gorge found out that Mushroom is on his way to steal treasure. [...] We have to follow him and come back with treasure for them, or they're going to sacrifice Grove."
— Rowan about the dragonmancers to Cranberry and Thyme, Dragonslayer

Rowan is a female human who appears in Dragonslayer. She is Wren and Leaf's oldest sister. She helps Leaf become a dragonmancers apprentice.

Appearance

Rowan was described to have dark brown eyes.[1]

Personality

Rowan was a distant figure to her siblings, often going fishing with Grove. After Wren got ‘sacrificed', Rowan was more sympathetic to Leaf and took him under her wing. She can be strict with training and she had a great love for treasure. She was slightly greedy as she tricked Leaf into becoming a Dragonslayer even though the actual enemies were the Dragonmancers. However, she feels guilty for tricking her brother as after Rowan and Leaf escape with their teammates, she confesses that Wren's "death" was orchestrated by the dragonmancers.

Biography

The Dragonet Prophecy

Rowan, along with Cranberry, Cardinal, and Arbutus were the scavengers who fought Tsunami and Starflight in the SkyWing Arena. She was one of the two female scavengers to survive the fight.


Legends

Rowan first appeared when Leaf was arguing with his parents about where Wren went, occasionally breaking into the conversation. Eventually, she told him about the Dragonslayer, who she heard about from her friend Grove. Leaf got excited and wanted to become a dragonslayer to avenge Wren, but their parents forbid them from doing so. After school, Rowan secretly taught Leaf what she knew about dragonslaying, as long as Leaf kept it secret. Eventually, she was captured by the SkyWings along with Leaf while trying to catch Mushroom. She along with Cranberry, Cardinal, and Arbutus fought in the arena. Rowan and Cranberry were the only ones to survive, Cranberry mentioning how great Rowan was in the arena. After she reunited with Leaf, she confessed the truth about Wren's death, revealing to him that she was sacrificed by the dragonmancers.
