Mate :: N/A - Although D'rick is trying to claim this title

Appearance :: When one looks at Artemis (or Arty) they definitely see that she is a daughter of someone wealthy. Her hair is perfectly well maintained, and just about always allowed to hang loosely around her shoulders. It falls to just below her shoulders, and is a beautiful blackened hue. Her eyes are a deep emerald color, which seems to hold unclaimed intelligence. Her skin is rather well cared for as well, hinting at the idea that she is well groomed and comes from a wealthy family. Her frame is rather short (a sore spot for her on some days) and her breasts are rather small as well (another sore spot on certain occasions). Despite her slight frame, she has a tendency to get dirty from time to time when necessary. The only scar she has is upon her left leg, it's a rather small thing that she got while playing with her brother and falling down. She had managed to cut her leg open badly enough that it left a small scar, but it did little more than that.

Personality :: There are many sides to Arty, the most important one is the side that shows how she feels about those around her. Nine times out of ten, she will put the needs of someone else before her own. The idea behind it is that she feels that she is more than capable of doing her job regardless of what happens to her, the duty of being daughter to a Lord Holder must always come first. This is something that she finds important… but it is also something that she resents quite a bit. If it wasn’t for the fact that she must put duty before herself, then she feels that she would have found herself a boyfriend by now! She is generally fairly confident around others, easily enjoying their company and getting along with just about anyone. Her biggest flaws are simply that she hates that she is short and that she lacks bigger breasts. In her mind, she might have had better luck finding a boyfriend if her boobs were bigger, although she isn’t entirely certain how that works. So long as no one mentions her breasts, they are generally safe. Mentioning the fact that she is short (standing about 4’5) will likely earn the person a glare so deadly they’ll think that she’s melted the skin off their very bones! One of Artemis's favorite things to do is spend time around others. Generally this means her twin brother Apollo, but there are plenty of times when the two of them go their separate ways for a few hours and find someone else to play with and have fun being around. There is one thing that Artemis fears above all else... Thunder and lightning. Or just about any type of storm, really. Although she does her best to hide it from everyone, her twin knows full well about it.

History :: Artemis is the youngest of 6 children. Her mother is Lady Pria of Ruatha Hold, and her father is Lord Tethys. When she was born, her eldest sibling, a boy named Metis, was just turning 15 and learning the skills necessary to one day take over his father’s job. Her other siblings were Rhea (a 13 year old girl), Jason (a 9 year old boy), Annabeth (a 4 year old girl) and the brother that was born roughly half an hour before herself, Apollo. Being the grandchild of White Rider Jaxom and his wife Sharra had afforded the children plenty of gifts and chances to play with the only white dragon to ever be seen on Pern. By the time Artemis and Apollo were five turns of age, their brother was regularly attending meetings with their father. Their eldest sister, Rhea, ended up married to a wealthy merchant within the hold. Her father had almost convinced her of marrying the Lord Holder’s son from Fort Hold, but she had objected so fully to that, that he finally backed down and let her marry whom she desired. By this point, Jason had also started to learn how to govern a hold, just in case he should end up being needed. Although, shortly after starting to learn, he gave up and requested traveling to the Harper Hall to take up studying there. Anny (Annabeth) was was the only other sister she had still at home with her and she spent much of her time looking up to her older sister. Although, she and Apollo managed to get into whatever trouble they could. Their streak continued until three years later, when Annabeth agreed to go to Southern Boll Hold, marrying that lord holder’s second eldest son. It was also during this time that she and her brother started causing more of a ruckus at home, needing more entertainment than their parents and the servants within the house could provide. The answer to that problem came shortly after their sister’s marriage when their father was having a meeting with the Weyrleader from Fort Weyr. The two youngsters had snuck into the room and “pounced” the man, exclaiming that they wanted to meet his dragon. “Hahaha! Sure, but only if your father agrees,” the leader had responded, and had been honest in the intention. Sadly, Lord Tethys glowered at them (they were grounded for a prank they had pulled on one of the maids) and put an end to the idea of them meeting the bronze. It was then that it was promised that one day they would get to meet a dragon, but only if they behaved themselves and didn’t cause too much trouble for their parents. Two months after that, the man returned with a firelizard egg, telling the twins that the hatchling within was to be shared between them. From the egg hatched a little brown who bonded to Apollo, but took to Artemis almost just as much as his bond. The twins absolutely loved him, as the firelizard managed to put up with just about ANYTHING that the two kids did to him; Including dressing him up in some funky outfit that Arty had for a doll of hers. Around their twelfth birthday the twins were taken and taught their specific rolls in life. Apollo was trained for in case there was the slight chance of something unfortunate befalling Metis, while Artemis began learning what it would mean to become the wife of a lord holder. The two of them were specifically taught to put their duties as the children of the Lord and Lady of Ruatha Hold above all else, and slowly but surely the lesson was beaten into their brains. These lessons continued until shortly after their 16th birthday, when dragonriders began coming to the hold in order to search for new candidates. It was then that the twins had their first TRUE dealings with a rider… and they didn’t go quite as planned. Shortly after greeting the rider and welcoming him to the hold, they were informed that the blue felt that she would make a good dragonrider. It had taken the rider roughly two hours to convince her father to allow her to leave the hold and join the ranks, explaining that it would help to further strengthen ties at the weyr and that it would be a great honor for her to join them. The rider further explained that with her having such high chances, if Apollo chose, he could join them as well. Thus it happened that Tethys's two youngest children both became candidates and moved to the weyr.

Pets :: Name: Sakka Age: ~3 months Hatched on: October 1st, 2012 Species: Firelizard Rank: Green Based on: Angela Montenegro from "Bones" Info: An average sized 'lizard, this little gal is a cheery green in color with no real set pattern or shape to the markings on her hide. Darker and lighter greens sweep along her back and sides, spilling onto her wings and down her tail. She's a sweetheart, as friendly and outgoing as any green is expected to be. She also loves art and attempts to paint when she has access to paints though her art isn't what most would call 'good' it's still rather unique and she seems to enjoy it (though her bond would certainly not enjoy the mess she leaves behind). She seems to enjoy playing matchmaker, always trying to get her siblings or her bond to admit that they like the person that she thinks is their perfect mate.

Dragon/Dolphin Name :: Green Jadziath

Dragon/Dolphin Appearance :: Jadziath's large for a green and a moderate green in color. She has darker speckles on her face, mostly around her eyes, but stretching along her eye-ridges to a point along the back of her head. Her wings are also a darker shade of green, kind of a pine green. Although not frail in build, she’s not muscular either.

Dragon/Dolphin Personality :: Jadziath is very strong-willed and bold for a green, even downright bossy. She idolizes both Zhlucarth and Seeth. Of course, her independence results in her often challenging both of them. She is also very open to males of all species and enjoys any flattering attention doled out upon her by them. Some of them she regards with amusement, others she takes more seriously. She might actually consider a "date" with a human male if one were to ever ask her. She enjoys complex games and puzzles, particularly ones that require strategy.
