Lore: Philosophers sometimes talk about "The will of the universe", a consciousness above that of even the gods. We may never know if the universe has a will, but we do know it has an immune response. When foreign matter streaked over the skies of Valhalla, the response was an antibody of celestial proportions. As the name Orion was spoken, Artemis came into being, although she would not call herself that for many years.

Born Mary Washington in West Plaza New York, she was a voracious reader with a love for strawberry ice cream. While Mary had a relatively normal childhood, her parents sometimes wondered why she would stare silently into the night sky for hours or read stories of the goddess Artemis killing the hunter Orion over and over again.

Mary was too eager to confront her opponent. At the first sign of her powers manifesting, she opened a wormhole intending to stride into Valhalla. Instead, she emerged in the vacuum of space. Struggling for survival, she fought to maintain a cocoon of atmosphere siphoned from nearby worlds. In desperation she ripped the core from a nearby star to forge her armor, extinguishing her first solar system. From there she traversed the dangers of the universe, careening through the Tri-Nova, ending Starchampion's fleet, and imploding the Leviathan of Eons, to name a few. Once ready, the completed Artemis arrived in Asgard.

In Valhalla, Artemis is still subject to the rules of local gods and tries to complete her destiny in The Tournament itself. Sensing a common frustration, Nix has taken her under her wing and the two often spar to hone their scythe skills. As Orion's reputation grows in the arena, Artemis wonders if all of Asgard might be too infected to save.

“She didn't even stop to tell me her diabolical plan. One second we were waiting for the usual monologue and the next my entire fleet was just gone.” – Lance Starchampion

“Destroying Orion isn't the only thing I want to do. But yeah, that's the main thing.” – Artemis

Additional information - Fun facts, Headcanons (unofficial information): • Artemis is actually slightly taller than Orion, her enemy. Their actual heights are unknown, but it can be speculated that she's at least 5'6ft (170cm, 1.70m) at most. • She doesn't mind going by the name Mary, Artemis, or Artsy, but the last one is reserved for close friends. • Likes listening to classical music, like orchestra for example, and enjoys artists such as Frank Sinatra, Nancy Sinatra, The Ronettes, The Ink Spots, Brenda Lee, Carpenters, The Crystals, Paul Anka, etc. • She's a coffee drinker, but doesn't drink it often and after 3 or 4 pm. Her favorite is cappuccino. • Mary's not so good showing emotions, and might seem even unsentimental at times. Mostly, her emotions are genuine. • Her house has a glass ceiling to stargaze on multiple rooms, and often falls asleep either staring at the night sky or reading a book. • Artemis is conscious she can't really kill Orion, but does her best to make him know she doesn't like him near in the slightest. • Often regrets having left her parents, wishing she could go back in time to when they were alive just to spend more time with them, but is also sure it's all worth it. • Has at least six strawberry themed objects in her house, but isn't obsessed with strawberries, just likes them. • Likes putting chocolate on her strawberry ice creams, as it adds texture and flavor. • Fait is one of her best friends, and often likes talking about space with her, which also helps Fait with studying the cosmos. • Will usually wear her helmet, gloves and socks to keep her whole identity concealed, and if using a skirt, she'll be wearing a pair of lycra pants. Pretty much never uses tank tops, only sweaters and long-sleeved shirts and t-shirts.
