Artemisia is most often known to be stoic, serious, cold and detached, as she seldom smiles and is not known for possessing a sense of humor. She never seems to laugh and she has admitted that she is not "good with feelings" and has been described as "cold as one already dead". She is usually all-business, and does not suffer fools gladly.
She is also headstrong and stubborn, even to a fault, refusing to walk away during suspicious activity or until the task at hand is completed. This sometimes reaches a point where she ignores even life-threatening injuries, such as when she is wounded in battle. If she can still wield a sword or fire an arrow she will stand and fight until her dying breathe. Her attitude stems from her mentality as a warrior, she is a loyal soldier of the empire and would rather die on the field of battle still in her prime than die swatting over her chamber pot an old prune.
Artemisia has a skewed , questionable sense of justice and an almost psychotically low level of empathy for others, seeing no ill in killing off an village to avenge the wrongs committed by a small group. When confronted by weaker opponents who could easily be simply incapacitated or avoided, Artemisia most often does not hesitate to kill them, showing no remorse for her actions afterward. She is completely cold to the numerous killings of she has committed, never showing any signs of guilt or remorse. In truth Artemisia is somewhat of a sadistic. She lives for those briefest of moments when she literally hold a person's life in her hands and then she get's to just rip it away. She doesn't feel guilt when she kills for it fills her with a sense of pleasure.
This is part is the reason why she refuses to rule over Caria. At the core of her being she knows who she is as a person and knows that not all people who have a right to rule are fit to do so. She knows that she is one of those people who while she has the power and right to rule she should never sit upon the throne. Commanding a navy fleet is one thing but an entire empire? It would crumble in her reign. She loves her home and her people far too much to allow herself to be it's downfall.
However, despite Artemisia's stony exterior, she is not entirely apathetic, as she tends to become distressed and vengeful when those she cares about are threatened, injured or killed. Decisive and intelligent, Artemisia is a superb tactician. Her deadly skill with a sword and accuracy with a bow and arrow makes her a lethal opponent and threat to any who would attempt to challenge her.
