HEIGHT: 5"8
HAIR COLOR: Brown
EYE COLOR: Blue
MISC: A few small scars from fights with boys outside of the orphanage, but nothing major.
PERSONALITY: Generally bright, friendly and positive, Artemis is a kind yet fiery heart.
A people person, Artemis dislikes being alone and thrives in an environment surrounded by people. He feels he can never have enough friends, and his friend circle has the potential to be quite large; And he never forgets any of those in it, taking the time to socialise and make sure each one knows how much he values them. Self sacrificing, Artemis is devoted to the safety of the Citadel as a whole, and will strive to protect it with almost unwavering vigour.
Having cared for the younger children at the orphanage, Artemis had a lot of patience in regards to children, and has a natural caring demeanour. He’ll give advice on a situation if he’s asked for it for not, and often will take situations into his own hands if he feels he knows best. He can be rather steadfast and stubborn.
His actions, despite being quite forward, are rarely self indulgent, and his strong common sense attribute generally makes him an ideal team player; but he has a habit of wanting to lead, and in situations regardless of who his superior is if he disagrees with the request, he’ll defy it regardless of the consequences.
Having been abandoned from birth, he’s developed a strong desire to prove himself, which accumulates specifically in terms of his mage training. He wants to succeed, and wants to achieve. He’s a naturally hard worker.
Artemis is quick to come to the aid of others, even if he doesn’t know them personally, and hosts a strong sense of right and wrong; He has no fear, and will confront others even if it puts himself in danger. As such, his fiery attitude when faced with animosity can often get the better of him, and he has no qualms with using his power on others in order to deal with a potentially violent situation or to protect other people. He can get riled up pretty quickly, and he often acts without thinking in this state, jumping to conclusions before knowing the full story. He’s extremely over protective, especially of the other mages in the Citadel. If anyone harms anyone he cares about in any way, he won’t hesitate to make sure they regret it.----------------------------------------------------------------------------- the history --Artemis knows very little of his life poir to living at the Haven's Light Orphanage in Goldcrest. He was abandoned as a newborn on the steps, in nothing but a blanket baring the Abrea crest, and with nothing but a small good luck charm consisting of a green stone on a leather cord, which is something he still wears.
He was given the name Artemis, since he'd been found in the late evening during a new moon, and grew up within the confides of the house. Life at the orphanage was difficult, due to the influx of abandoned children and orphans during the war, and food was often hard to come by;
From a young age Artemis was expected to help around the orphanage, cleaning and sweeping from around seven years old, and helping with the younger children, which he took to well.
He would often get into small scraps outside of the orphanage with local boys who would belittle him for having been abandoned, with Artemis readily coming to the defence of the parents he'd never known; Over the years, he'd convinced himself that he must have been left for a good reason, and has built up an idealised view of who his parents could be. Mostly as he doesn't want to face the fact he may have simply been unwanted.
The years went on, with Artemis noticing a few odd occurrences, such as objects moving by themselves, water shifting in a bucket when he was partically annoyed at being given cleaning duty once again; However, at 14, it suddenly came to a head while out running an errand. A rogue mage and Coterie sympathizer, having been cornered by city guard, had proceeded to attack both them and anyone else nearby with swirls of scorching fire; and Artemis got himself caught up right in the middle of it.
Terrified and like an animal in headlights, he had to be shoved out of the way by a guard,
who ended up injured as a result. Frantic, Artemis desperately tried to help the man, using magic to send the other mage back with a terrible force when he approached to finish the guard off.
The fight ended with the arrival of the Chevaliers, who ended the rogue, and Artemis was immediately escorted back to the Orphanage to gather his things, then brought back to the Citadel.
While Artemis had little choice otherwise, he willingly left Haven's Light; He felt as though discovering he was a mage could provide some link to his lost family, and felt that leaving to join the Enclave would help him discover exactly who they were.
Since joining the Enclave, Artemis has overall found it difficult to control his abilities. While at first he'd been suspected of being a force mage, it was soon discovered that Artemis in fact had a knack for manipulating air. He strives to get better, to prove that he can be something beyond an orphan of the war, and practises for hours when he can in private, else suffer ridicule from more advanced mages. He terms of his day to day duties, Artemis is often in the kitchens, helping with the food and running errands.
Artemis has grown increasingly curious about where he comes from, with the good luck charm his only ties to his family; He hopes to one day discover who he is, and reunite with those who left him on the steps of Haven's Light all those years ago.
