## Appearance

Rowen is a butler, and as such, he is dressed in formal attire including a tailcoat jacket. He has long, white hair that he keeps tied back in a neat ponytail, as well as a moustache and a beard.

## Personality

Rowen is always very calm even in tense situations, where he will often make jokes to ease the atmosphere. Even though he appears to have an ever-gentle expression, he can deliver a piercing gaze with his eyes, showing that he can be very serious when the time calls for it. He often has amusing conversations with Alvin, poking fun at Jude not knowing about "adult" things, and he sometimes even jokes about his own age.

Rowen is also shown to be a very humble person, judging by his decision to become a butler despite being an accomplished war hero and famous tactician. However, abandoning King Nachtigal was a decision he has regretted to this day, feeling guilty for causing Nachtigal's power-hungry nature.

This attack creates several columns of water that rise up from the wave created by the preceding spell. The water and columns are subsequently frozen, encasing the target in an icy structure. Rowen walks away from the pillars, then, with his back still turned to the enemy, raises his hand and throws a hidden knife toward the center of the ice columns. All of the ice shatters, dealing heavy damage to any opponents caught within.
