Played by: Cheri Matthynssens

Name: Rowena ui Iorwerth
Age: 9
Height: 4'5
Weight: 70
Background:
Rowena is the youngest daughter of Lord Iorwerth ap Greidawl and Lady Isa. Rowena has had the benefit of spoiling by her brothers and sisters. She is the apple of her parents eyes and she knows it. However, with her benefit of her mother's training, she had retained a sweet and loving demeanor. Being a smart child, she has learned to get her way through gentle smiles, teasing comments and well timed requests.

The one trait her mother is still working on is Rowena's tremendous curiousity and penchance for unladylike behavior. Just recently, she had caught Rowena in the creek with village lads fishing with her hands. Her dress had been tied high up on her thighs and she was wet and dirty. Before that, her mother had caught her in the stables pretending to be a great knight. Rowena had even fashioned a sword from a farm handle. Being a very energetic child, getting her to sit still for lessons in sewing and embroidery was a trying task. Lady Isa could tell that her youngest daughter's thoughts were on some new grand adventure she was planning.
