UNIFORM:
As the hero Artemis, she wore a green midriff top with a lighter colored green arrow on her chest. It was sleeveless. She also wore dark green finger-less gloves. Black pants and black combat boots completed with a black utility belt was her uniform waist down. On her back was a green quiver full of various arrows. Her look was complete with a green mask that went from her hairline to her cheekbones. Her waist-long blonde hair up in a pony.
Now she is Tigress and has ditched the "Green Arrow" look. Her suit is burnt orange and black in colors and is full bodied. Topped with a hard orange mask that resembles a tiger's face. On her back is a hard black sheath that holds her sword, and a black belt around her waist that holds many other weapons.
DESCRIPTION:
Being half-Caucasian and half-Vietnamese, Artemis is a perfect mix of the two with olive-toned skin, almond-shaped dark colored eyes and long, thick blonde hair that reaches to her mid-back. She is of average height for her age and a slender yet athletic build. Despite her olive skin being almost flawless, she does have scars. Small and almost unnoticeable, the crystal colored lines are randomly placed throughout her body. These are from the constant fighting she does.
Her civilian garb consists of mostly neutral, earthy colors. Browns, blacks, and the occasional white. Usually jeans, combat boots and a long sleeved shirt or sweater. Rarely does she ever dress up in dresses or formal clothes.

Fear: Since loosing Wally, Artemis' primary fear is loosing someone close to her again. Other lesser fears consist of abandonment, solitude, and breaking of family or friend ties. She also fears the unknown.
Desire: Somehow bringing Wally back to her. Even though she knows it's futile. Another desire is to keep others from feeling the same loss she has by being the best hero she can be. Saving the lives of innocents.
HABITS: When angry or upset, Artemis goes out and shoots her compound bow at targets. Be it training targets or even trees. The feeling of the arrow leaving the string is a comfort to her. She does this when she is bored as well. Sometimes when she is missing Wally, she goes home and spends time with Brucely; the only thing she has kept from her time with Wally besides the Team. Artemis also has a bad habit of biting her lip when nervous.
PET PEEVE: Someone who excessively flirts (unconsciously reminds her of Wally when she first met him and she hates it). Ignorant people. Someone who takes the idea of life for granted.
STRENGTHS:
• Above average fighting skills: Artemis is well trained from her father. Her speed, endurance, agility and strength are above most all women her age. She knows martial arts well and can easily take down multiple targets.
• Marksmanship: Artemis is well mastered in archery. She knows how to shoot many different kinds of bows from a compound to a crossbow. She is also able to shoot 2 or 3 arrows simultaneously. Artemis is ambidextrous, she draws her bow with her left and right hand.
• Multilinguistic: Besides English, Artemis knows Vietnamese, French, and Spanish.
WEAKNESSES:
• Limited to martial ability and weapons; no superpowers.
• Headstrong and impatient. She is better now since being with the team so long, but these traits still pose a problem at times.
• Lack of emotion since Wally's death. She keeps most of her true emotions inside, causing internal turmoil.
• Since Wally's death, she has somewhat pushed people away. Even though she is afraid to lose them.
TRAITS:
Coming from a family of criminals, Artemis is is not one to shy from fighting. Her body is trained to a tee by her father's constant pushing of her skills. Mostly majoring in archery and martial arts. Other of her skills include swordsmanship, tracking and other fighting tactics. Because of her upbringing, she is a survivor by nature. Having to cope and survive not only her father's harsh training, but her family dynamic as well. Her mother being in jail most of her life, and her father living the life of a hard criminal.
Artemis is confident in her abilities and will resort to violence in a situation if necessary. She is decisive and blunt, not afraid to speak her mind at any given moment. Sometimes what she says can hurt, but she is truthful in what she says...even though sometimes she regrets saying it. Smart and quick witted, she is the perfect description of "street-smart".
Living most of her later childhood years fending for herself and her mother, Artemis is extremely independent. Fearless by nature, she hides most of her actual fears in case they can be used against her. Rarely does she every admit her true feelings. Despite that she is a loyal member of the Team and would do anything for her friends and the people she cares about. While a bit rough around the edges, Artemis Crock is a good-hearted woman who would give her life for her team.

HISTORY:
"Early life
Artemis Crock was born and raised in Gotham City.[17] Her parents were assassins. During one of their crimes, her mother, Paula was crippled, and as a result took the fall for her husband. Paula spent the next six years in prison, during which Artemis was raised alone by her father,[7] as her older sister ran away[5] the same year[18] due to their father's emotional and verbal abuse.[19]
Artemis's father trained her to use a bow as her primary weapon, and frequently subjected her to apparently criminal tests. The nature of most of these tests have not been specified, although while robbed of her memory Artemis suggested one such test could involve being forced to kill someone, in this case, Kid Flash.[12] Her sister Cheshire has also stated that their father regularly made the pair fight against each other.[20]"
-Tigress, Young Justice Wiki
After secretly helping Superboy, Robin and Kid Flash during one of the Team's missions, Artemis was sought out by the Justice League. Agreeing to their proposal and posing as Green Arrow's niece, Artemis Crock joined the Team under the superhero name Artemis. During the events of her first year as Artemis, she became lasting friends with the Team and fell in love with Kid Flash aka Wally West. They soon after started dating.
"2011-2015
Artemis was on the Team for a while, but left for unknown reasons. She and Wally moved to Palo Alto,[14] and enrolled in Stanford University[34], where she pursued a double-major in Human Biology and Comparative Literature.[35] After spending freshman year in the Toyon Hall dorm, Artemis moved to an off-campus house where she lived with Wally and Brucely.[36]"
-Tigress, Young Justice Wiki
Artemis dated and lived with Wally West for a little less than five years, loving her life as a student and a girlfriend. It was something she thought she had always wanted. A normal life filled with normal things. But deep down, she missed a life of fighting crime with the Team.
It wasn't too long though, when Nightwing came to her and Wally asking for a favor. A huge favor. He wanted Artemis to fake her death and go undercover to help Aqualad, who was also undercover in the depths of the Light. Artemis greedily accepted. Despite Wally's protests. Soon Artemis was no more. Now she was Tigress, a martial artist with a deadly sword. With the help of a gem charmed by Zatanna to mask her appearance, Tigress took her place by Aqualad as his second in command.
Once not only the Light, but also the Reach, was beaten, Tigress went back to being Artemis. Fighting alongside Kid Flash to save the world from the lasting Reach technology. But finally her fighting rush took its price. Helping reverse the effects of a Magnetic Field Disruptor, Wally died. It broke Artemis to pieces. Her whole world was now gone.
Reverting back to the alias Tigress (she said Artemis was Kid Flash's partner and she had to stay buried with him), Artemis joined the Team with more determination than every before. In some respects, she has done more and helped save more people than she ever has before. But many see her old personality slipping over this past year. Hard and cold, Artemis has distanced herself from her friends. Devoting her life to saving every other person...but herself.

RP SAMPLE:
It had been months since she was last down here. Staring at him. At his face. The slight smile gracing his mouth. The shine in his eyes. Artemis wasn't sure if it was her memory that caught that shine, or if the halogram of the first Kid Flash was just that detailed. She decided on the former.
The hard mask against her face pressed like a reminder to stay grounded. To stop thinking of him. Of Wally. The ring of color around her eyes was burnt orange, not emerald green. She was Tigress. Not Artemis. Not Kid Flash's partner. She was her own person. Her own hero.
But the ache still lingered...like a thousand needles pressing against her heart. It was suffocating.
