Artemis

For the record, this is NOT the Greek goddess, also, sorry, no picture.

"Well, I'm glad I'm like this now, I'll scare the heck out of people." -Artemis to Heather, Before And After.

"I'm sorry, but I can never go back to a life like that! I'm too bad to be good, I'm too wrong to be right, I'm too dark to be a light." Artemis to Ser Patrick, Before And After.

Species: Human (Formerly), Undead

Factions: The Frostbourne (Formerly), Undead Army (Formerly), The Shadow Legion

Age: 27 (Book 2), 28 (Book 3), not mentioned in Book 1

## Description

Appearance: Artemis has light skin and short, blonde hair with purple streaks. She wore jeans with a light blue cold shoulder t-shirt, but switched to an orange shirt when she joined the undead, and her jeans became ripped up. She wears black shoes with white patterns on them. Her weapons involve a crossbow, upgraded to be a machine-gun-like weapon, which she enjoys using, and her melee weapons involve a sharp dagger and a whip that she can light on fire at will. Her eyes were purple but when she battled Victor Summery, he hit her with a spell, causing one of her eyes to become red with a black sclera, which gave her the impression she was undead, which (Spoiler Alert), she was. Because of this, she sometimes can lose her vision and everything will become blurry, making it harder for her to fight, but she has been able to figure out a way to fight even when she is unable to see her targets.

Merciless and daring, Artemis is a dangerous and ruthless enemy. Even with these traits, she has always had a soft spot for her older sister, Heather. She will joke around with her and just loves being with her. The two argue, but still care about each other very much. One of her best friends is her half-brother, who turns out to be the leader of The Frostbourne, Ser Patrick. She sometimes sneaks into The Dreadfort to talk to him, since Herobrine had been killed by Ceris.

## Story

Artemis was very young when her sister was sent away to The Coven, and missed her so much. She wrote to her often, but almost never got replies, and when she did, she jumped up and down in excitement and read the letter multiple times, as if she would never see the note again, even though she kept them all safe and sound hidden away underneath a floorboard in her room.

One day, when she was laying on the grass, looking up at the stars peacefully, waiting for something to happen, she heard an ear-piercing scream, and grabbed her whip, crossbow, and her sister's letters, and ran for The Coven, knowing her sister was in danger. When she reached The Coven, she came face to face with one of The Coven members, Victor Summery, and knew he wasn't going to let her escape, so she had to fight him. She lit her whip and attacked, but before she got rid of him, she was badly wounded, and when she defeated him, she ran to find her sister, whom Leif Moonfall had killed, sort of. Many had heard Heather, and Herobrine had sent Blackbone to find her.

When Blackbone had reached The Coven, he was surprised to see anyone still standing, specifically Artemis, she had been nearly killed, but she saw Blackbone and grabbed her whip, lighting it, but Blackbone hadn't come to fight, and so he negotiated with her and said that they could join the undead army, and she agreed, and they headed back to Herobrine's base, Blackbone dragging Heather behind him.

Herobrine too was impressed to see Artemis had survived Victor's attack, but nonetheless agreed the two sisters would be helpful for the army, and let them stay. They had come after Ari and Natalie had escaped, and knew nothing of them beforehand.

They helped Infernius in the destruction of The Coven, and killed many of the witches that tried to fight them. When Artemis came face-to-face with the witches, she took them down with her whip, missing a few witches, but killing enough that she had a fighting chance, until she didn't. Victor Summery hit her with a spell, knocking her unconscious. When she woke up, one of her eyes was damaged, which freaked out Heather and surprised Herobrine and Blackbone.

Later, when Herobrine recaptured Ari, she had escaped, and he sent Artemis to find her. When she did, she argued that Ari was 'not worth it' and that 'she only brought him trouble'. He ignored her and she left in frustration, needing to cool off. She knew that he thought he knew what he was doing, but she wasn't so sure having Ari back was going to be his good luck charm. She fought in the battle at the wither skeletons' camp in Goodbye, and when she saw Herobrine's decapitation, she attacked Ceris and The Ender Watchers, hoping to get revenge on them. Her sister was not impressed, and said 'You can't just go around shooting people like that! That's one of the easiest ways to get killed!' Artemis, knowing she was right, stopped shooting at the fleeing Ender Watchers.

When she saw Herobrine attacking her half-brother, she was torn between choosing whether to attack him, and follow her orders, and helping him, since he was the one who had taken her away from her sister, literally, but she knew that he was only trying to protect her. Her parents had sent Heather to The Coven to keep her safe, but Artemis wanted more than ever to be there with her sister. Her parents argued with her that she could not go with Heather, and before they sent her away, Artemis tried to stay with her, as stubborn as she was, Ser Patrick knew how to get her to let go, and he took her back home, letting her cry all the way back home. He did not have the same bond with Heather that he had with Artemis, and even though the two had become so distant with each other, Ser Patrick and Artemis miss each other every day.

She is mentioned in Book 4, when she was punishing Charlie for his actions against The Nether. She lit her whip on fire and whipped him, burning through his clothes and digging into his skin. Tears streamed down his cheeks and he ran away, returning home. She never knew Charlie, but after she joined The Shadow Legion, her behavior had changed.

## Fun Facts

* Like the Greek goddess, Artemis had vowed she would never fall in love, and has so far kept that promise.
* She also is very easily irritated, and will take her anger out on the first thing she can find.
