Artemis Fjordhallen

Main page: Important Characters

Born: Sometime before 2500 KH Artemis comes from a time in the past, pre-Spellplague. He began life working as an assistant to a wizard called Batanthrus Hillbotomew Pelvinard III, the third in a family of great mages. Batanthrus was, at the time, jealous of Yah’la Dumiran, inventor of the Centennial, someone he deemed as unworthy of such a feat, given his lack of family background. He decided to undertake an even greater experiment, desiring to create a device that allowed for not only inter-continental travel, but inter-planar travel. To this end, he hired hundreds of assistants, to help with manual labor. Artemis, at the time an unnamed young lizardfolk, was hired for this purpose.

He and Batanthrus’ daughter, Andromeda, fell in love, and pursued a relationship in secret. Andromeda gave Artemis his first and last names, which he would treasure forever. One day, as the project seemed to be nearing a conclusion, Artemis was caught by Batanthrus. Furious, he was placed in shackles, and left to rot in prison. He would likely have remained there and been killed sooner or later, had it not been for a strange group of adventurers who happened by. They freed him from his cell, and confronted Batanthrus just as he seemed to be completing his experiment.

A battle broke out, with Batanthrus being defeated, but the machine going berserk. Roggvir, one of the adventurers, threw himself into the machine, causing it to stop, before exploding in a burst of white light. Batanthrus was killed, but what happened to Artemis and Andromeda is unknown.
