Rowan Sharpe is bounty hunter who resides in Ul'dah, and works in the surrounding deserts. She can often be found in the Quicksand, perusing the notice boards for missing persons, or meeting up with prospective clients to find work.
After a difficult childhood in an Ala Mhigan refugee camp and lots of bad choices in her teenage years, she ended up fighting in the Bloodsands to repay debts incurred. Coliseum regulars might recognize her as a former gladiator, the leader of a winning trio in the years leading up to the Calamity. She was conscripted out of the gladiatorial ring by the Immortal Flames to fight in Cartenau Flats, and served the Grand Company until she was discharged, shortly before the Dravanian Horde's attack on the Steps of Faith.

Physical Appearance
- Rather tall and lean for a Midlander female, there is no mistaking Rowan for anything but a fighter. Her hair is short and bound up so it won't get in the way, and her attire rarely sacrifices function for the sake of form. Although she does not seem like the type to be swept up in the latest fashions, her attire is generally stylish enough and as clean as she can manage, which suggests she cares more about her looks than she might let on. She is never unarmed.
Biography
1552-1568
The Fall of Ala Mhigo
- Rowan was born in Ala Mhigo, the product of a relationship between Ulic Sharpe, a Highlander who served in the Ala Mhigan military, and Ada Yarborough, a hot-tempered Midlander who followed the Fist of Rhalgr. The two had met during a joint expedition abroad, and found companionship in one another. Ulic already had a 2-year-old, Hunfrid, whose mother died during childbirth.
- When King Theodorac declared himself the divine ruler of Ala Mhigo and outlawed the worship of Rhalgr, Ulic urged his lover to steer clear of the politics. However, Ada found it impossible to stay on the sidelines, and soon found herself at odds with Theodorac's forces. While she was not present when the King of Ruin purged the monkhood in 1556, she refused to go into hiding, and was slain by Theodorac's forces during the uprisings that eventually deposed the king. Stricken with grief over the loss of his lover, Ulic deserted and fled Ala Mhigo with his children, seeking a better life in Thanalan.
