Meet Rowen Hashiba bearer of the Armor of Life.

Intelligent, cunning, and precise, Rowen Hashiba is a brilliant strategist with a talent for finding an enemy's weakness. Anubis even described Rowen as being "the most dangerous" for his incredibly deadly accuracy with his bow and arrow. His friends also describe him as a walking encylcopedia since he's so smart, although he has been known to make mistakes from time to time.

Personal opinions: Rowen is actually alot like Sage in that they both tend to think the same way, but he is also a very dangerous warrior in combat because of his ability to compromise during a battle. For example, during the second season after Ryo and Rowen successfully enetered the realm of the Dynasty, Ryo gets knocked unconcious during a battle. Rowen, knowing full well that Ryo can't summon the Inferno Armor without the other three Ronin Warriors allows himself to be caught and as a result is taken to where Sage, Cye, and Kento are being held prisoner. Once Rowen arrives there, he is able to revive his friends so they can battle the Dynasty as a team once more.

So in short, Rowen may not always know all the facts about his enemies. sweatdrop But once he gets involved in a fight, you can always count on him to use his brain and his wits to survive the battle!! cool
