Appearance and Character

The recent lineage of House Flint has provided a wealthy sum of black haired, blue-eyed men. All of Jon Flint's sons were the same, only varying slightly in height. Rowan, the second born, is the tallest of his father's children. His shoulders are broad and his body is toned. He is the most attractive of his brothers, and he embraces it.

Rowan's ego is even more obvious in his drive for power and the once gut-wrenching envy of his older brother. Throughout his adolescence, Rowan stood in River's shadow. His father's favoritism drove him into intense jealousy. The need to out-do his brother make Rowan power hungry. What better way to exert supremacy, he wondered, than to steal the title of Lord?

History

Childhood (396-408)

Rowan's mother found an early grave during the birth of Erik, leaving his father alone to rule a province and care for three young children. To alleviate the stress of parenthood, the young Flint's were each assigned a unique guardian that would care for and educate them throughout childhood. For Rowan, that was Maester Finch.

Finch was an old man who had served the Flints for nearly five decades. He was very well educated in fields of politics and statehood and had counseled Jon on many occasions. Assigning Finch to Rowan made it clear that Jon wanted House Flint to evolve in a more militaristic manner, as River had been assigned the Sergeant at Arms, Ser Wood.

For as long as they could remember, River and Rowan fueded. At twelve years old, they argued for and against sending men to the Mummer's War. Their stark difference in diplomacy initiated many a screaming match.

Wester's Evasion (416)

In the year 416, to provide for the cost of castle expansions, Lord River Flint increased the harvest tax on tenants around the domain. This was met with harsh criticism, mainly by Rowan. He argued that the common folk were worked enough, but River just ignored him.

In 417, a farmer called Wester, stopped paying taxes altogether. River called upon three of his household soldiers to find the man and exact the taxes, or to bring him the farmer's head. Weeks went by, and the soldiers never returned. River and Rowan inspected the farm themselves, and found the mangled bodies of the soliders hanging above a well. The manhunt began for Wester.

For months, the men of House Flint scoured their land in search of Wester. Always they seemed steps behind, always arriving to a location just hours after Wester escaped. Finally, after nearly six months of searching, Rowan found the man.

Wester's Trial (417)

Wester knew what charges he faced; murder, treason, evasion of justice. Yet, he exhibited a strange aura of confidence at this trial. In the end, he demanded trial by combat, and called out River to champion himself.

At first, River was hesitant to participate. After hours of deliberation, Rowan convinced him to fight the farmer. Furthermore, Rowan urged him to make a spectacle of it; to extend an invitation to all of their domain.

When the people arrived, the two men fought. Wester was surprisingly agile and quickly established himself as a formidable adversary for River. Wester was able to land a brutal blow to River's abdomen, but it wasn't enough. River found an oppurtunity, and struck at his throat.

The "Death" of River Flint (418)

River's wounds became increasingly painful. Maester Finch watched over River for several weeks before the Lord of Flint's Finger would succumb to death. At least, that is what Rowan would tell his family. In actuality, River was just fine. His wounds were healed long before his "death". With the help of Maester Finch, River was moved into a dark cell deep below the castle. There he remains, in complete darkness, being fed morsels day by day.
