## Early History

Rowan's grandpa got him into drawing at a very young age. Brady always had a special something with him and his brothers, and drawing happened to be their thing. Rowan was the only artistic one of his family besides Brady.

The bond he had with his grandfather was different from the one he shared with his father. Seth was never artsy and that was all Rowan wanted to do as a kid. It was like he didn’t know how to connect with Rowan in a way that didn’t involve throwing a ball around. He doesn't remember his parents arguing much, but when they did, it was usually about him. Seth would get angry because he didn’t know how to bond with him, so his mom would cry. It got particularly worse once his mom got sick.

His father treated him and his brothers like shit because he was scared. Because taking care of them on his own meant accepting that their mother was truly gone, and he wasn’t ready for that. He abandoned them when they needed him most and replaced himself with someone none of them recognized. And instead of losing one parent, they lost both. One to cancer, and the other to his vices.

Seth might have not intentionally told Rowan to stop, but he made sure to take the joy out of it. Whenever Rowan had an exhibition, he wouldn’t show up, so he had to watch all the other kids’ parents celebrate while he stood there by himself. It got to the point that Rowan refused to participate anymore, despite his grandfather trying. Then there was a time that Seth found all the old cards Rowan drew for his mom while she was in the hospital. Seth ruined them because he felt like it. They were some of the last memories Rowan had of her, and they were gone after a drunken rampage.

Rowan's first real taste of the scum of the Earth started in college when a random girl invited him back to her dorm after a party. He lost his virginity while unknowingly being filmed with a hidden camera. It cost Seth a lot of money to sweep that issue under the rug before she went to the media with the tape.

Rowan joined the bowling team to spite his father. His father never specified which team he should join, so Rowan liked beating him at his own game. His father was pissed he never made it past any of the 'real sports' team tryouts.

At his mother's funeral, Rowan threw himself into his mother's grave.

Rowan has earned a reputation as a ruthless businessman known to stir up the same level of happiness as animal euthanasia. He first gained attention after being the tie-breaker vote against increasing the minimum wage for employees. Because of him, The Kane Company has continued to pay their employees pennies for their hard work. His reign of terror was solidified over the years. He has cut back on employee’s paid vacation days, swapped our health insurance plan for one that hurts rather than helps, and laid off thousands of employees.
