CHARACTER INFORMATION

Alignment: For this event, Artemis's forgoing her hostile tendencies and acting more face-ish. It's known by Owen that she can be one vicious beast of a woman. Unless someone really pisses her off, she's going to be tame.
Gimmick: A glory-driven monster. The world has turned against Artemis so many times to the point of her developing herself to fight it back. Her mentality borders that of a whiny child to a methodical dictator set on owning all in her horizons. She believes that championships and statistics are eternal and make a wrestler. Her family's lifestyle reflects that. All the while, she fights to retain a grasp on the world. She deals with many issues that she doesn't believe exist. Past events have kind of formed her into a nigh-heartless being that doesn't care for the well-being of others. Over time, she has learned to put a handle on it for the betterment of her career and status.

Entrance/In Ring Attire: Artemis wears a black sports bra with the Red Lantern symbol embroidered onto the left breast, which goes along with her half Vale Judo shorts that bear a red and black camoflague theme. On the back of them, a wolf with its maw wide open and fangs threatening rests. Artemis wears black boots that reach the bottom of her knees with kneepads over them. Kickpads are also present, red to fit the general theme of her attire. Most notably of this is the infamous red streak of face paint that she dons on her face.
Entrance Theme: Sonne by Rammstein
Entrance Theme Description: 

The abrupt and rough riff of "Sonne" by Rammstein echoes throughout the arena. The lights in the arena begin to die down, casting darkness over the crowd. The sounds of thunder and lightning pick up and the lighting reflects that. The loud riff comes to an end and silence falls over. The crowd resonate their respect for the woman who is coming out as the countdown begins.

As "Aus" is said, Artemis Kaiser makes her way from the back. Her face is hidden by a shadow cast by her Greg Jackson hoodie. She is followed by three men, holding up flags. The man on the farthest left holds up a Canadian flag. The man on the farthest right holds up a forest green flag that bears in white "PARAGON BJJ". Finally, the man in the center holds up proudly a black flag with "KAISER" etched in bold, robust lettering. Artemis stretches a bit, before removing the hood. Artemis' face bears eye black and the infamous red streak upon her nose. The camera focuses firstly on the HKW Bloodlust Championship around her waist before panning up to her face. The God of Anger glares down the crowd. She soaks in the atmosphere, faintly grinning as the crowd chants her name.

The three men begin to march their way down the ramp, followed by Artemis. Artemis does not respond to the fans as she gets close to them, somewhat mocking their contempt. As she reaches the center of the ramp, The announcer makes the call. Knowing that they are about to, Artemis stops, lowering her head. It is as if she locked herself away in her thoughts for a moment, removing herself from reality. The three men still hold their flags up in silent pride.

[font size="4"][div align="center"][b]"Eɪɴs!"[/b][/div][/font]

[font size="4"][div align="center"][b]"Hɪᴇʀ ᴋᴏᴍᴍᴛ ᴅɪᴇ Sᴏɴɴᴇ."[/b][/div][/font]

The fans yell out the lyrics to the song as Artemis makes her way down the ramp. The march is proud, signified by Artemis’ stunning silence and trance-like state. She stops on the ramp, lowering her head to the ground. Artemis locks herself in her own thoughts for a moment. The three men stop, surrounding Artemis slightly, eyeing only the ring.

Artemis raises her head, roaring out a cry of fury and war. She continues to pump herself up as she makes her way to the end of the ramp. In a choreographed fashion, the three men separate, allowing Artemis through. She unzips her jacket and acts as if she was about to throw it into the crowd, but instead hands it off to the man holding the Canadian flag. In exchange for the hoodie, she takes the flag. She then gives a look to the audience again, before leaping onto the ring apron.

She spreads out the flag, showing her pride in her country, and then brings her arm down to smack the plate of her championship. She wraps the flag around her shoulders momentarily before entering the ring. She methodically walks around the ring with the flag spread out, establishing her presence. As she concludes her preparations, she leans in her corner, holding the Canadian flag close to her form. She then awaits for the match to begin.

WRESTLING INFORMATION

Wrestling Style: Trained originally in mixed martial arts (Judo, Kickboxing, Sambo, and BJJ), Artemis has a rough time making the transition to professional wrestling. Her style does work against the newer age of wrestling that revolves around quick grappling and Puroresu inspired striking. Her striking can easily be mistaken for Strong Style as she tends to brutalize opponents to hard blows. Eventually, she found her niche in deathmatch styles to the point of being invited to Laurel Anne Hardy's Deathmatch Invitational. She specializes in disorienting foes and beating them down to the point of fans being disturbed by it. {Minoru Suzuki/Tomohiro Ishii}

Strengths: 
1. Obsession Made Superstar - Artemis' love for wrestling has made her obsessed. She has found loads of ways to overcome height, weight, and technical advantages. Artemis might be trained in many different styles, but her adaptability is what conquers many of her opponents. It's a common trait among the Kaiser family to be able to come up with unique ways to wrestle their opponents. Hell, she has even broken several of her enemies' necks.

2. Driven by spite - Some people think you'll have to put a bullet in Artemis to beat her. Artemis has fought through bloodshed, possible injury, and severe pain to overcome her opponents. As evident with the scars littered among her body, Artemis hardly cares for pain. However, it's a double-edged sword. Artemis wants to be superhuman, but she will never be such. The effect does stop when she's facing someone she likes. The numbness to pain is driven by her raw hatred for many competitors.

3. Versatility - Seen as one of the most resourceful and deadly strikers in the world right now, Artemis' strikes are fearsome. Despite her small frame, she has concussed several superstars with a devastating punch. A striking game is not a place where you want to go with her. Grappling is a thing that Artemis excels at, but mostly counter-grappling. Being too risky around her will result in you being taken down and possibly submitted. However, that is not to say that a fantastic grappler cannot beat Artemis. She has many rivals in that regard. Also, a person who brings an unique style might disrupt Artemis' flow. She's intelligent, but her lack of strategic planning leaves her open to surprise attacks or surprise changes. However, she has trained herself in many different styles to make sure she can cover her bases. It's hard to control the pace with her, but if you can, you can keep her down for a good while.

Weaknesses: 
1. Height and Weight - It's obvious how short Artemis is. This impedes some of her explosiveness as she usually faces people taller than her. She has grown accustomed to facing people taller than her, but it's a weakness none the less. It sucks having to box someone who is looming over you. In addition, she fights like she's a 250+ heavyweight. She has the strength to fling most women about easily, but she can gas herself in a grapple battle with bigger men.

2. Ruthlessness - Artemis tends to fight for blood. Even if she has the opportunity to win, she tries to beat her opponent until she's satisfied. As a woman whose lust for violence hardly quells, you can see where this becomes an issue. If her opponent is not begging for mercy, Artemis might not stop. This might cause her and the referee to butt heads. Also, she hates being rolled up. If she kicks out, help whoever did it.

3. Zero Gameplan - Artemis never plans for any of her matches, leaving her vulnerable to new things. She believes that a fighter should be able to adapt perfectly. However, this is not always the case. She can cave under the pressure of a superior tactician.

5. Hate Parade - A variation on Super Dragon's Violence Party - Artemis throws her opponent into the corner and unleashes a heavy elbow strike to her opponent's face, disorienting them. She then opens with four alternating elbow strikes. Then she follows up with several Puroresu styled chops. Next she kicks them ruthlessly, before stepping off. She rushes back in with a running high knee. As they slump to the ground, Artemis ends the barrage with a devastating running face wash.
6. STOCKTON SLAP! - A loud, echoing open handed slap across the face of her opponent. It hurts, but it's mostly in order to rile up her opponents or prove her dominance. She'll do it multiple times if need be to get her point across.
