*2013: Artie turns 10 and is inducted into the family business. She is also sent to train with super criminal Weng Chan where she meets and trains alongside her half sister Jade for several years. During this time, Artie is also homeschooled at the same time that she learns all manner of armed and unarmed combat, showing a special talent with the bow and arrow.

*2015: Artie turns 12. Jade leaves Weng Chan and marries notorious criminal Kreun Musenga.

*2016: Jade's father discovers he has a daughter with Anna Nguyen but keeps this to himself.

*2019: Artemis is now a professional criminal and assassin under the name of Tigress and has been for about a year. Around this time, her mother takes the fall for her father and chooses to turn herself in, giving up the criminal life for good.

*2020: Artie turns 17, tired of the brutal training regiment, heavily influenced by her mother's noble sacrifice, traumatized after her first kill and lonely without the companionship of Jade, she finds a chance to run away and start a new life as a heroine, seeking to make amends for her troubled past.

*2021: Led by a strong sense of Justice thanks to her mother, now in prison, she tries to keep a low profile, donning a new masked costume as Artemis and takes a day job as a waitress, while fighting crime at night as an independent super heroine.

Personality

Click to expand.

Arrogant:
Artie is very self confident and self assured, perhaps believing herself to be invulnerable and no longer able to hurt. It didn't help that she was very talented as an assassin and even moreso as an independant heroine. She's used to working alone and solving problems on her own. And as such she can act pretty cocky and arrogant, often underestimating the abilities and opinions of others! Believing her way is best.

Cynical:
She can have a very devil may care attitude around others. Not really caring how others perceive her, not if she hurt their feelings. She will be brutally honest if she thinks something needs to be done or if someone is doing something wrong and she can even border on scathing at times, making biting, witty remarks at others expense. it's mostly due to a kill or be killed upbringing and a desire to get the job done quickly and efficiently rather than a desire to actually hurt people that she does this.

Fearless:
Artie has experienced some very horrifying situations involving life and death, a violent and unstable upbringing, criminal parents and a harsh and unforgiving mentor. This has caused her to grow a thick skin and a too short childhood. There is very little left out there that scares or surprises her, and she certainly has an iron unshakable will.

Flirty:
She can be a real tease and a flirt, letting people know exactly what she thinks of them, neither embarrassed nor shy about hitting on guys that she finds attractive. Sometimes she doesn't even seem to notice or care if they're attached, which can get her into trouble from time to time. Maybe she just enjoys the thrill of the chase, playing games with people or the level,of control she can exert over others.

Righteous:
Unlike her half sister, Artemis chose a path of Justice and light, seeking to make amends for herself and her family. Her mother installed a strong sense of Justice in her and she was her strongest and most stable role model growing up, teaching her kindness and empathy towards others, and a strong sense of right and wrong. For all her roughness with others, Artie truly is a kind and caring person who wants to make a difference in the world.

Secretive:
She tends to keep others at arm's reach for all her flirtiness, afraid to let anyone get too close unless they discover the terrible truth about her, that she's from villainous stock. Artemis will even go so far as to tell lie after lie in order to protect her self from having her secrets discovered by others. And sometimes she will weave a web of lies around lies, causing more trouble than it's worth.

Character Sheet

Powers

None:
Artie has no superhuman powers but above average strength, stamina and agility due to 9 years of intense training.

Skills

Click to expand.

Acrobatics:
Artemis is incredibly flexible, agile and light on her feet. While not quite on of professional level, she is capable of impressive stunts like hand springs, cartwheels and the occasional somersault which helps her move more quickly when it matters most.

Ambidextrous:
Artie can aim and throw, write and use basic tools with equal strength in both her left and right hands.

Marksmanship:
She has excellent aim and perfect distance sight. While skilled in the use of throwing knives, her forte has always been with bow and arrows. She is skilled enough to hit fast moving targets and small sized targets at great distances, and she can shoot up to three arrows at a time.

Martial Arts:
Artemis has had some decent training in a mixture of different martial arts, incorporating agility and acrobatics with speed and pressure points. Her style is very similar to Cheshire's, using quick moves, odd angles and leaps to keep her opponents guessing.

Multilingual:
Artie is fully fluent in both English and Vietnamese languages.

Physically Fit:
While she is certainly not superhuman by any means, Artie has been trained and conditioned to be exceptionally fit and strong for her size and weight. While not on par with Olympic medalists, she is about as fit as some professional level athletes and black belt martial artists with nearly ten years experience under her belt.

Tracking:
She is an excellent tracker but again not among the best in the world. Even so she is very skilled in finding people that don't want to be found.

Resources

Click to expand.

Arrows:
Artie has a variety of trick arrows that are useful for nearly any situation. These arrows include:

Blowpipe: Blowpipe arrow with darts that can sedate or put the target (s) to sleep for up to an hour at a time depending on size/weight.

Bolas: Arrows that have a chain and weighted balls at each end for entangling targets.

Explosives: Arrows explode like a bomb on impact, strong enough to destroy a small car.

Smoke Bomb: Creates a blinding smokescreen upon impact, useful for blinding the enemy abs/or covering her tracks. Can cover up to 20 m diameter in blinding smoke.

Bow:
She possesses a solid steel and compact bow, excellent for distance combat and solid enough for limited close combat.

Contacts:
While she turned her back on her villainous father and her mentor Weng Chan, she knows where to find them if need be. She is also in contact with her mother from time to time. She likely has a crew other contacts with criminals during her short stint as Tigress.

Sword:
She carries a small, light weight short sword in her arrow case, for those few instances when she finds herself in close combat.

Weaknesses

Click to expand.

Arrogance:
Her greatest strength is her greatest weakness. She tends to think she is invincible and unerringly intelligent, preferring to rush into situations based on her own judgement. Believing her decisions better than others. Sometimes this means overlooking her own flaws, getting herself into major trouble more often than not.

Enemies:
Artemis has many enemies. From her criminal father to her trainer, to her sister, even the police who might have known her in her short criminal career as Tigress, or who may have discovered her identity, while Artemis wasn't a very prominent criminal in the past one or two years, if her secret identity is discovered she could be in a lot of trouble.

Fiercely Independent:
She is not a team player and often rushes off on her own, doing stupid crazy things that can put both her and her team mates into trouble. She doesn't mean to cause trouble but old habits die hard and she spent most of her training working alone. Suddenly having to consider the fate of her team mates is something new that she really needs to work on.

Secrets:
Artemis has so many layers of secrets and really nothing she says or very little can be trusted. She holds everyone at arms length and can make enemies out of her greatest allies because of her propensity for lies. This is not much good if she is running from a villainous last. She has to trust someone afterall..

Villainous Past:
She was raised in a very tough and heartless upbringing, basically kill or be killed. Her father saw her only as a tool, a mean to an ends so to speak and little more than that. Her trainer was equally brutal, showing her no mercy and instilling all sorts of negative philosophies in her head, and her sister is a trained assassin herself. She really has no one else to turn to but her mother for help. Anyone else would either kill her on sight for her defection or try to induct her back into their villainous fold.
