Personality: Artemis has a strong, dominating personality. Once she hs made up her mind, her mind is made up and there is no point arguing with her.

This usually gets her into sticky situations that she talks herslf out of because of her charismatic tendencies. She seems to know exactly what she is doing even if she acts like she hasn't got a clue. People underestimate her for this becase she useually goes off on a tangent and dosn't focus on the task at hand.

Background: Artemis is of Greek origins but was born in England. Her family have a long line of vampires branching off of the family tree and traits from the vampires keep poppig up in different descendants. Despite her heritage, Artemis has never been to Greece and hopes to go there one day to find out what it was like for her grandparents who grew up there. She had a happy family and was a very bubbly person until their untimely and avoidable deaths.
Short Roleplay:
Artemis was stood in Flourish and Blotts with a book open in her hands. Her dark eyes were flicking across the pages, taking in little details of the book and finding out what it was about. Artemis closed the book with a snap and returned it to the shelf before stretching. Once her spine made a satisfying click, Artemis picked up her bag which she had left on the floor when that book had caught her attention.
Artemis dropped the bag onto her shoulder and left the shop with a small smile. She knew that with a few more days of selling some potions to wizards and witches who couldn't afford them at street prices, she would be able to buy the book. It was one specifically on Defense against the Dark arts. It showed the reader how to use a Dark Wizard's own magic against him. What Artemis had read so far was fairly good and she couldn't wait to take it back to her home herself an read it at her own leisure.
