Known History
Rowan arrived in the Twin Cities mid-August; since her initial encounter with the Camarilla, she has been under the Accounting and/or protection of several members of court across two domains, transferred from one to another by convenience, misfortune, or necessity.
She claims to have been born in England and trained as an historian, and it tends to show when she gets nervous or distracted- she has been known to do such things as recite poetry, expound on Latin root-words, and discuss British political practices to/with conversants and unsuspecting bystanders.
