Roger MacKenzie
Full name: Roger Jeremiah Wakefield MacKenzie
Also known as: Roger Wakefield
Born: 1941
Biological Parents: Jerry MacKenzie and Marjorie Wakefield
Adoptive Parent: His great-uncle, Reginald Wakefield. His mother's uncle.
Siblings: None
Wife: Brianna Randall/Fraser
Children: Jemmy & Mandy
Occupation: Historian, Presbyterian Minister
Physical Characteristics: 6'3" (DIA, chapter 1) Thick black hair (DIA, chapter 2) Olive skin and eyes of a brilliant, lucent green (V, chapter 3)
Roger is descended from Geillis Duncan and Dougal MacKenzie's unacknowledged son William Buccleigh MacKenzie. In many ways Roger is the counterpoint to Jamie in the books as he struggles to find his place in both the 18th and 20th centuries. Roger has a quiet strength that enables him to endure great hardship and loss, and a path that never seems to run smoothly. Roger is very intelligent and was one of the youngest professors at Oxford (DIA, chapter 1)
Significant moments:
1941: Roger's father Jerry is presumed dead after crash landing his plane, although his body is never found (Leaf)
194?: Roger's mother Marjorie makes her way with Roger, to the safety of the underground tube station during an air raid. The station is struck by a direct hit of a bomb and the ceiling starts to crack above the stairs where Marjorie is standing clutching Roger. Marjorie looks up and sees her husband Jerry and her face is lit by a flash of joy, but just at that moment the ceiling starts to collapse. Marjorie grabs Roger and throws him up over the stair railing towards Jerry, where he lands high on Jerry's chest. The ceiling comes down and Marjorie is killed. Jerry struggles to hold onto Roger and falls over the side of the platform onto the track, smashing his head on the rail, just as the ceiling comes down. Jerry dies from his head injuries, but he has saved Roger. Roger is taken to safety by two men, just before the rest of the ceiling comes down on Jerry. They cannot identify Jerry because he has no dog tags (Leaf)
1946: adopted by his great-uncle Reginald Wakefield at the age of five after his mother was killed in an air raid (DIA, chapter 1)
