Encyclopedia : A : AR : ART : Artemis Fowl I

Artemis Fowl I is the father of teenage prodigy Artemis Fowl II, title character of Eoin Colfer's fictional series.

Both Fowls are descended from a long line of lawless Irish billionaires. Artemis I attempted to invest some of the family fortune into post-communist Russian shipping endeavors, with disastrous results. Master Fowl took 250,000 cans of Cola into Russia and the mafia blew up his ship.

Mister Fowl was gravely injured and missing for over a year following an attack by the Russian Mafiya aboard the Fowl Star he was accompanied by an uncle of Domovoi Butler. The ship exploded after being hit by a missile. In this accident and in the subsequent events in the hands of the Mafiya, Artemis the First loses a leg and his sight. He was rescued by his son Artemis II in Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident with the help of Butler, Commander Julius Root, and Captain Holly Short.

Holly Short healed the wound inflicted upon Artemis I by his son during the rescue, and restored his sight to him. Afterwards he no longer wanted to be a criminal. He wanted to be a Kennedy.
