Charles Rowland (Sandman TV Series)

Charles attended St. Hilarion boarding school before dying in 1989. He was tortured to death by some of his classmates, who threw stones at him while he was in a lake in the middle of the night, until he found an opportunity to escape. He found himself in an attic where he first meets Edwin Payne, who brought him a lantern, and kept him company. He would succumb to his wounds and die of hypothermia and internal bleeding that night.
