History -
Born in Athens, Greece on September 16th, 2043 to her young, single Greek pureblood mother Athena Galanis, Artemis grew up not knowing of or anything about her father, despite her wishes to have knowledge on the subject it was a topic her mother forbid. Artemis had always been quite smart, even as a little girl she could tell there was a difference between herself and most other little children whom had both parents in their lives. But even still, she never complained or asked questions that would upset her mother; crying was reserved for special moments of 'quiet time' in the privacy of her own room when no one would come bother her.

Because her mother had been terribly unprepared and young when she had come along, Athena's parents - Artemis' maternal grandparents, - were far from happy with the whole situation, and highly disappointed in their daughter for 'throwing her dreams away'. Words of anger were tossed around, no one was forgiven. Athena's older sister, Erimentha, and her husband, Deniz, took her in and helped to raise Artemis when she finally came. Their three-year-old daughter, Demetria, was absolutely thrilled to have her first cousin. Athena and Erimentha never spoke to their parents again after that.

Artemis started school two years earlier than the average child, much too advance for her own good; she was put into a special school for children like herself, where she should have easily fit in (but if you ask her, that was not the case). When she was two-years-old her mother had been halfway through Healer school and they had gotten a place of their own, not far from her aunt's house where she would stay during the time her mother had to work. To Artie, it was more like home than their own place. She and Demetria had been, and still are, not only cousins but the best of friends.

School wasn't so bad, Artemis had been rather fond of her teacher, Andrew DeVille, and took it upon herself to get her dear mother to get to know him too. It was her idea that if she hadn't been born with a daddy, like all the other kids she knew, Artemis would find herself one. And in order to do that, her mum had to like him. Luckily for her, she had picked right. Her mother and Andrew were married the October after she turned six-years-old; she and Demetria were the flower girls. She was perfectly happy being their daughter, being an only child just like her older cousin, but apparently her mother and stepfather had something else in mind: At eight-years-old, they had surprised her with a baby brother - Apollo. In Artie's words, he was born an old man from the start "Grumpy, little and wrinkly".

All through her life Artemis did things to make others proud of her, her mother, her stepfather, her aunt and uncle. When she graduated from the wizarding school she attended in Greece, like her mother she went into Healer school. Instead of the same one her mother had gone into, she decided it was time for a change - a real change, and moved from the safety of home to London, England to be closer to one of her most favorite people in the world, one of her mother's oldest and dearest friends: Amelia Finbal-Sulo, whom she most commonly refers to as her Auntie, and the rest of the Finbal/Sulo family.

Though she loved her work at St. Mungo's, once Healer school was finished with Artemis decided to take a slight break after a chaotic event that hit the wizarding Hospital, coming back as a part-time Healer when needed. Knowing Amelia owned the bookstore residing in Diagon Alley, she ventured in and ended up taking over at Quality Quidditch Supplies since it was in need of someone to run the place. However, that did not last long - no more than a year, at which point she took up the position of Assistant at Eeylops Owl Emporium, still wanting to stay close to Mia. During her first summer at Eeylop's a young, blonde spikey-haired, green-eyed boy by the name of Legend Chosen came in and her life would never be the same again.

The boy, going to be a First year at the time, had asked her questions about animals and she gave him the answers she knew. He shared a secret with her, and she promised to keep it (really, who was she going to tell?). He also said he was there to avoid his little girl friend the words 'girl' and 'friend' are NOT together. where he knew she wouldn't come because of the owls. Ever since that day, the boy came back regularly to see Artemis and talk to her for no particular reason usually. Eventually he began to insist she looked familar, that she looked like his father, and in his childish mind he decided that he wanted her to be his sister - so she was, and he told her something along those lines despite her own insisting that she was not related to him. Late summer of 2068 changed everything.

A run in with Legend, who had dragged his father with him, and her mother's surprise visit brought information Artemis had been waiting over twenty years to know: She had found her biological father, and Legend was right. From there it gets hazy, for she doesn't know many details after - why it had been kept from her all those years, from Alphonse Chosen who had no idea she even existed. Although she probably should have been, Artie was not angry or resentful toward her mother and didn't push for details. She is still slowly but surely finding out more, and getting to know her real father, Al, as well as his own family. Artemis went from having one small family consisting of her mother, stepfather and half-brother (Apollo) to having two connected, mixed-up crazy families with the addition of her father (Al), stepmother (Rae), stepbrother (Miguel), half-brothers (Tyson, Legend and Sparrow) and for a change, half-sisters (Alexis and Robin). Before, for the longest time Artemis felt incomplete and lost, not knowing her place in the world and feeling as if she doesn't fit in. She's found her place now, and she's happy.

After four years of working in Eeylops and being an occasional part-time Healer when she had free time, many things happened and Artemis finally decided it was time for a slightly more permanent change. Leaving behind her feathery friends (intending to still come and visit Vanessa in the future), Artie became the proud owner of Weasleys' Wizarding Wheezes in June of 2072 and not long after, the proud mommy of a couple month old labrador retriever puppy.

Two years passed by rather quietly, but disaster struck in March of 2074, when Artemis was kidnapped along with a fellow Diagon shopkeeper by a pair of Walpurgis' Cult members. It took a year, before she was free and could return to her normal life and family, plus several months for recovery time. Since then, Artemis has sold WWW to new management and moved on to private defensive training for a while. For the first year she focused on being with her family and getting to know her brand new nephews (all three of them!), as well as taking up curse-breaking. With the departure of Mr. Odessa, Artie has become Head Curse-Breaker at Gringotts Wizarding Bank. She is also engaged to be married to Brett Carlen, owner of Diagon Alley's favorite bookstore, Flourish and Blotts.
