Robert Row is a Human created by GuyThatExists that appears in the short story Bavel's Diary as a main character. He was a member of Mayor Simmons' wagon train from Kansas City to New Market and was one of the first settlers of the area. Eventually, he would meet Bavel, a Raposa from another realm, who he would house. When Bavel returned to the Raposa realm, Robert would come with him, learning about Raposa culture and history, eventually returning home and naming his son Bavel Row in honor of his new friend.

Story
Before Bavel's Diary
Robert's early life is currently unknown, though it is known his father was not present in his life. He would eventually marry Isabelle and join a wagon train lead by Mayor Simmons out of Kansas City. When the train ended at New Market, Robert would help settle the area, though he began to feel homesick, so he and Isabelle decided to have a child.
Bavel's Diary
Bavel first mentions Robert after traveling between realms using the Book of Imagination. After being threatened at first, Robert stood up for Bavel after hearing Bavel's words. Robert would then invite Bavel into his home for his stay. Throughout the next week, Robert and Bavel would exchange stories and become friends, prompting Robert to ask to join Bavel back in Rapoville. In the Raposa realm, Robert would meet Bavel's family and would begin learning about Rust City from Athys. Over the next few days, Robert would visit Snowy-Snow Mountain with Frostwind, Rapocity with Ibrahim, and the Starlite Works with Elkanah.
While in the Starlite Works, Robert and Bavel would visit Deadwood, who requested information from Robert about New Market. After this, the two of them would be brought into Deadwood's trunk, and Robert began telling Deadwood about his fears of being a father. Bavel, not an active part of the conversation, would then decide to use the Book of Imagination on Robert, entering an Imagination Battle with him. After completing the battle, Robert began to feel more confident, and the two returned to Rapoville. At the end of the week, Robert would return to New Market, where his son had just been born. In honor of Bavel, Robert and Isabelle decide to name their son Bavel Row.
After Bavel's Diary
An unknown amount of time later, Robert would pass away. According to Mari's footnotes in her transcription of Bavel's Diary, she deduces that Robert could potentially be an ancestor of Mike and Heather, though she is unable to contact them to confirm this.
