 Artemis Diotrephes
‘’’Name:’’’ Artemis Diotrephes
‘’’Age:’’’ 23
‘’’Race:’’’ Wick
‘’’Place of Origin:’’’ Black Hand Tribe
!!!Backstory: Artemis grew up in the Black Hand tribe. Always possessing an interest in weapons, and the arts of combat, he was trained by his parents in dual-wielding, hand-to-hand combat, and certain level-one spells, such as light, dark, minor heal, camouflage, and ghost sounds . He was self-tought in throwing stars. At the age of 15, he found a young falcon, who had been abandoned by it's parents, and raised it until it was a healthy adult, naming it Horas. When it would not fly away on it's own, he decided to make it useful, and had it trained to hunt small animals and bring them back to him, which later became essential to his survival when, at age 17, he had a disagreement with the Durg, and drifted, taking only Horas, his father's dual-blades, and his mother's copy of the Spoke's Almanac with him. When he started visiting Galdor territory, he found himself getting into a lot of trouble, falling in with thr wrong crowds. He made a few human 'friends', who turned on him as soon as things got rough, eventually leading him to trust noone but himself. He started taking up random jobs- first to pay off debts- and then found he was quite good at these jobs, and eventually started looking for them for profit, doing anything for the right price. Like his late human companions, he turned his back on a job as soon as there was a higher bidder, sometimes even killing the one who had given him the job in the first place. This way of life turned him cold, distant, and ruthless. But he managed to make enough money to purchase nice armor, weapons, fashionable clothing, and eventually a moa to make long-distance jobs more convenient.
!!!Personality: Artemis would be described by most as cold, concieted, and uncaring. He is vain, but can, at times, be quite charming. He is very charismatic when he needs to be, able to talk his way out of many ill-favored situations, and into many more favorable ones. He can be needlessly cruel, and generally stays away from long-term relationships- or even the short-term ones. This is not to say it is impossible to get to know him, if you can break through his icy exterior, you may be surprised at when you see. Artemis has an appreciation for nice things, especially when they can retain some practicality. He doesn't like things to be excessively decorated, but likes simple, elegant designs, preferring it to plain and simple. He likes swords, and pointy objects, fighting up-close and personal, and hates blunt weapons- they are needlessly messy, and dislikes guns for the same reason. Though he prefers close-combat, he will use throwing stars if he feels he should use extreme caution, and has a great aim. If anything, he is certainly not a coward. Though he's managed not to acquire any scars on his face, his body is ridden with them. !!!Description: Standing at about 5'11", Artemis has a body build for speed and stealth, possessing streamlined muscles which ripple smoothly under his skin. He has pale skin, and long, curly black- almost blue- hair, which somehow always appears to be clean and silky, possessing a healthy shine. He has almond-shaped, silver eyes, high cheekbones, and a young, heart-shaped face. He possesses thin, pale-pink lips and a long nose, which tilts up very slightly at the end. He always tries to remain clean-shaven, keeping a well-trimmed goatee. !!!Residence: Where ever his job takes him, he usually takes up residence at a tavern.
!!!Inventory: * Black leather armor: Cuirass, gauntlets, greaves, boots * A black, hooded cloak * Twin daggers, each hanging from it's own belt * Belts, black and leather like the armor * A longsword which is slung on his back * Throwing stars * A flask * Dice * A pouch in which he carries his money * A copy of the Spoke's Almanac !!! Pets: * A solid black moa, Midnight, outfitted with custom leather armor, it's designs matching Artemis'. * A falcon, Horas, trained for hunting and carrying messeges. Careful, he bites anyone who is not his master.
!!!Career Mercenary, he takes any job that pays well, and will change sides depending on who pays better- he takes no sides, drifting based on who is the highest bidder. He is good at infiltration, and information gathering. He is also good at killing without drawing too much attention, and has done so on several occasions. !!!Goals: * Survival * To acquire many riches * Become very powerful by taking over the Bad Brothers, with whom ha's had dealings in the past, meaning one particular figure he wouldnt' mind seeing dead before the end of his life is one Silas Hawke.
