He is currently the governor of the planet Ord Cantrell. Artemis was born on Kiffex , a world that had been scarred from intense conflicts. His father, Cronus de Chatillon had achieved great status through his service as an intelligence analyst for the Galactic Empire. This afforded the Chatillons with a comfortable and luxurious lifestyle compared to many others who suffered the effects of war. Cronus had three children by his wife Rhea.
The children were Artemis, Silenus, and Iris. This early authority ended up shaping Artemis in later life as he developed a desire to dominate every domain he crossed. Of the other two Chatillon children, only Iris had a profound effect on Artemis' life. Iris was plagued by illness throughout her life, and the strain which resulted from her constant state of distress dominated almost all interactions with her, which lead to tense, frequent rifts in the Chatillon family.
He was neither remarkable or suffering and as a result of this neglect within the family he left home early. Eventually Silenus would find himself incarcerated for many years for reasons which were as inconsequential as his childhood.
As a student, Artemis excelled in his studies thanks to the tutelage of a private and overqualified tutor. It was here that Artemis learned of his analytical coolness, a trait that would go on to help him in later life. Artemis desired to have more knowledge and, as a result of this knowledge his own lust for power and domination grew within him. As a result of this growing desire he left home as he entered into adulthood, severing ties with many of his relatives except for Iris and his reclusive uncle, Ares.
Once Artemis left home as a young adult he fell into the company of the Nefas, a cult of shadowy extremists from beyond the Kiffex skyline. There Artemis made his acquaintance with the influential, charismatic Kiffar Coeus Ahlstedt.
