Artemisia

Name: Artemisia Minerva Tabbris Blair

Dynasty: Victoria

Notable Traits: Always armed with a dataslate, a sketchbook, and an umbrella

Titles and Nicknames: Troublepants, Arty

Information Known by Arkangel Society

Artemisia's first appearance on Arkangel was in attendance at a birthday gathering for Lord Captain Borovich whereupon she horrified her brother, made a great many arrangements for adventures, and refused to leave.

She still refuses to leave.

She has professed herself a xenobotanist, general xenographer, and a pilot. Her mechanical knowledge seems highly specialised towards breaking security systems. Most recently she helped reacquire Regimental Mascot Elizabeth, and so now finds herself with a new creature to learn about now her initial enthusiasm for squigs has passed.

Lineage

The eighth child in the Blair family dynasty, and thus in line to inherit nothing whatsoever. Formerly resident on Halbert-A, of the triptych star system Thricecrown.

Known Associates

• Romeles - her brother, to whom she is a constant thorn in the side of.
• Sterling - Romeles's 1IC, but fortunately he's so lovely Arty wasn't at all upset when Romeles designated him as deputy when he was unable to attend the Captain's Table
• Alexandra Euphemia Blake - Artemisia's extremely long-suffering bodyguard, previously thought deceased.

Rumours

• Had an as-yet unexplained falling out with her eldest sister Cecilia, the Sector Governor of the House Victoria estates of Thricecrown, which precipitated her appearance on Arkangel.
• Her brother Romeles is consistently trying to encourage her to have a proper profession and join the Ecclesiarchy.
• At the most recent gathering hosted by the CHI, her brother capitulated and agreed she could remain with the crew for at least a few months without his insisting she head to a convent.

• "So full of energy with lust for adventure and knowledge all tied together with the casual nobility we have come to expect from her family. All in all I can't wait to have a chance to show her 'my ancient xeno lore'" - Maximillion
• "Full of curiosity and excitement. Trouble, obviously, but our kind of trouble." - Mac

• "Milady is a true delight, if not a little distracting" - Sterling
• "Wow... umm... she took that kinda... personally... can such capacity for compassion survive out here? Such potential to feel the pain of others..." - Araquiel
• "Still fun and energetic, willing to get stuck in. I like her." - Maximillion
• "I didn't mean to be patronising to her. I didn't realise she was... Unused to the horrors people in our line of work regularly face. I hope she never gets as jaded as I am about it all. She's too good a person for that." Tomas J Rexuz
• "I love to see her passion for adventure where ever we go. To often we forget that life is one great adventure." - Maximillion
• "Seeing her with all her limbs sliced off was one of the most disturbing things to happen to me and given that I once came across a naked, greased up Twigjack in the air vents, that's saying a dammed lot. Id rather not see her in that much pain again" * - Cartwright
• "I mean, I liked her especially after she punched out an ork. But if we're going to keep doing some things together, I should probably actually get to know her." - Friedrich Sternenlicht
• "There will come a day when you come to understand that for every adventure, for every wonder, somewhere out there is a horror and it will come to you. It is what you do when you come to that point that matters. Keep on adventuring or run back to your gilded cage." - Ambrose Cordell Tollman
• "Endlessly insufferable and she makes my job about 50 times harder than it needs to be, but there's something about her that makes loyalty easy. I wouldn't have her any other way." - Alexandra Euphemia Blake
• "A smile like summer, and a scowl like all the storms upon the sea." - Thunder

• "It took me losing an arm to remember the person I had become, but the vastly more painful thing about the situation has to be leaving her alone in such a place. Artemisia may forgive me but I shall never forgive myself." - Cartwright
• "If I tell you to do something, it's not because I'm your big brother and I want to boss you around, it's because I'm terrified you're going to die if you don't." - Romeles Uriel Corinthian Blair

• "Even in the worst of situations she always has a ready smile and a childlike sense of adventure. She is a blessing to work beside." - Maximillion
• "Smart. Strong. Kind. I hope she stays kind and this place does not hurt her too much. I wonder why Lyt says we came from the same place." - Skyfall
• "Lady Blair is impulsive and undisciplined. She would have happily run off by herself into the Night after Lord Commander Cartwright when he was being A DAMN FOOL.

• "In all things well dressed and with impeccable style. We need more like her." - Maximillion
• "You seen her move in a fight, Lenno? Not that that matters under the circumstances, but it doesn't hurt either. So yeh, when I can get her alone, I'll ask her. I mean, you've gotta figure if she really wanted out of that whole weird fucking owned-by-her-brother situation, she'd go to Borovich, but still. Hunter like that shouldn't be caged." - Spider
• "P-01-18.02-12: Artemisia. There's always one who thinks it's a good idea to venture out in search of dangerous heroics. Artemisia is taking a deadly risk by exploring the Maw. I hope she doesn't yet learn how capable she really is. If she does, she may never know a normal life - Something in which we all are owed." - Florentius Sweetwater
• "Sometimes I find it hard to tell who wears the trousers in this dynasty... then an umbrella comes from nowhere and I'm reminded." - Decius Crane
• "Her endless patience and kindness is a blessing. Once upon a time somebody told me I could never become more if I didn't abandon my duty, but Artemisia has proven them wrong over and over. I can become more without abandoning the core of who I am, and serving as her protector is both honour and privilege beyond duty." - Alexandra Euphemia Blake
