Rowena Edgarton
Rowena Edgarton is the eldest child and older daughter of Gabriel and Rathna Edgarton. She takes after her mother both in appearance and in magical skill.
She, her brother Anthony, and sister Avigail all grew up at Veritas with their parents, Gabe's parents Alysoun Edgarton and Richard Edgarton, and Magni Torham and Gilbert Oxley in residence, as well as other chosen family and household staff.
Rowena began at Schola in 1937, in Seal House like her mother, and she has a particular affinity for some of the house's magics.
By 1949, she's near the end of her apprenticeship to her mother as a Portal Keeper, though it would be really helpful if she could come up with some innovation as part of that.

Spoiler about Rowena
Rowena takes being of Seal House more literally than most people. During her time at Schola, she learned the knack of shapeshifting, and turns into a seal (specifically a grey seal).
Old As The Hills
Rowena is in her third year at Schola as Old As The Hills begins, in Seal House. She worries about the tasks her parents are taking on, but also has a chance to develop her own skills and gifts as a result.
Unknown Depths
Unknown Depths leads to Rowena taking a break from one project to help Thom Marwick with a more urgent problem threatening the waters of Orkney.
