CONTACT/TEAM PREFERENCES

A comment separate from your app with your name, email, and team preferences. Making it a separate comment lets us keep it screened, thus keeping your team preferences private.

For the time zone field, feel free to make a note if working bizarre hours makes you effectively on a different time zone than stated.

"Team preferences" is a catch-all field for any thoughts you might have regarding your character's placement. For example, you might want a team that will put up with your character's sociopathy, or has a certain "feel" to it, or is friendly to your time zone, or maybe you don't think your character looks good in orange, and so on! This is also the spot to let us know if there are teams you DON'T want to be on. While you're not required to put anything here, don't say you have no preference unless you really, honestly have NOTHING to say on the subject! If you've already apped and realized you'd forgotten something? Make another comment!

Character Name: Artemis Crock
Canon: Young Justice
Reference Link: The YJ Wiki

Character History: A great deal of Artemis' personality takes root in her family issues. Daughter of two supervillains, she was trained for combat from childhood, constantly being tested by her father, something which she alludes to in the amnesia episode as casually as "He probably wants me to kill you." This part of her life was conducted in the absence of her mother and sister. (Her mother was serving time in jail for her crimes, and Jade ran away to escape their father and train under a different master, leaving Artemis the sole member of their family actually trying to keep them a family.) After years of incredibly unhealthy childhood training, her mother returned from jail, and the two of them somehow managing to keep Sportsmaster away, living together in a Gotham apartment. Artemis took up vigilanteism, and eventually was made Green Arrow's protege. Only a day later, she became a part of the Team, and thus a part of the series.
Personality: Because of her upbringing, she's aggressive and caustic, ready and willing to speak her mind and bring it to blows at the slightest provocation. An incredibly physical person, she vents her anger by looking for trouble, seeking out villains to beat up with her fists if at all possible. She's strong, smart, independent and presents herself as a generally capable person.

As is often the case with characters that have such bravado, Artemis is much less together beneath her tough outer shell. She lives with a crippling fear of her teammates discovering to whom she's related, and makes mistakes in her efforts to keep that secret. She lies, lets enemies (her sister) walk free and generally gives off a rather untrustworthy impression at bad times. She has some difficulty fighting the family she so loves, even as broken as they are, to the point of actively being a hindrance in fights against Cheshire or Sportsmaster, from time to time. At the same time, she's desperate for the approval of others, even though she tries to pretend she isn't. Learning that she may have become Green Arrow's protege not through her own prowess but through pity very nearly As tough as she tries to be, she can only take so much pressure, and has broken down on-screen when the entire team depended on her. She pulled herself together and did what was necessary, but she first had to come to terms with exactly how much she valued her teammates.
