Artemis Fowl/Characters

Artemis Fowl

 * Affably Evil
 * Annoying Younger Siblings: But one could also say they're just plain awesome.
 * Anti Hero: From the second book onwards. A Type IV in the second book, developing into III or II in the third and being cemented as such in the fifth.
 * Blue Eyes: A bright, piercing blue that he shares with his father.
 * Icy Blue Eyes
 * The Chessmaster: He's quite the schemer and planner, coldly moving people like chess pieces.
 * Child Prodigy / Teen Genius: A preteen genius in the first book.
 * Cool Shades: A Justified Trope, given they can dispel the mesmer.
 * Creepy Child
 * Noble Demon: Spelled out by Holly: "Deep beneath the layers of deviousness you have a spark of decency. Perhaps you could blow on that spark once in a while". Artemis says he might consider that.
 * Eerie Pale Skinned Brunette: It's one of the reasons he's described as 'a vampire' when he smiles.
 * Enemy Mine: In the second book, where he teams up with the fairies in order to track down the source of the goblin batteries, and the third book, where he requests their assistance after Butler is shot.
 * Enfante Terrible: He's 12 in the first book but it's implied that he was like that for years before the start of the book.
 * Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: His mother is a Morality Pet in the first book as he genuinely cares for her and takes care of her.
 * Even Evil Has Standards: Even when a Villain Protagonist, Artemis would not stand for mistreatment of the environment. He also abandons kidnapping schemes at Butler's request after their first tangle with the fairies, when they discover how human they are.
 * Evil Plan: In the first book, it's extorting gold from fairies to rebuild his father's criminal empire. Starting with the second book, his plans become less evil.
 * Friendless Background: Butler is more like a father that takes orders than a real friend. There's a real Tear Jerker in The Artemis Fowl Files, where it is revealed that he used to keep sweets in his limo in case he ever made friends.
 * Geek Physique: The only muscle he cares about is his brain. The rest of him is scrawny.
 * Gender Blender Name: Artemis is the Ancient Greek goddess of archery, the moon, and hunting (though he claims the name itself is a genderless noun in Greek).
 * Meaningful Name: His last name may be a reference to Guinea Fowl, one of the animals associated with his namesake --the goddess Artemis, and is said to be her favorite animal.
 * Guile Hero / Magnificent Bastard: He is as triumphant an example of both tropes in his time as a Villain Protagonist and Anti Hero as to rival Kane himself.
 * Intelligence Equals Isolation
 * Lonely Rich Kid
 * Nerves of Steel: In The Lost Colony,
 * Overlord Jr: Albeit one whose overlord is missing in Russia.
 * Pet the Dog: His treatment of the endangered lemur in book six is probably the most prominent example. Also, in book three, his (begrudging) decision to donate Spiro's billion dollar fortune to Amnesty International, with 10% going to the Fowl Estate as a finders fee, and his request for Holly to heal his mother in book one.
 * Pragmatic Villainy: Fairies speculate that Artemis only healed his mother because he didn't want social services interfering in his plans.
 * Ship Tease: With Holly starting in book 2. He thinks of her as being 'pretty in a dangerous way. Black widow pretty.'
 * Shoot the Dog: In the Time Paradox, with the lemur.
 * Smart People Play Chess
 * The Southpaw: Ambidextrous, but favors his left hand.

 * Wise Beyond Their Years: At thirteen, he'd already done enough to earn an active file from Interpol.

 * Good Is Not Nice: Heroic to the point of helping her enemies against trolls, but not exactly polite or kind.

 * Midnight Blue Eyes: In the first book, a man looks into them and notes that "they were a deep, dark blue, almost black. There was no mercy in those eyes."
 * My Master Right or Wrong: He doesn't really care what Artemis is doing because it's his duty to help him do it.

Mulch Diggums

 * Big Damn Heroes: To Artemis and Holly
 * Big Eater: Party-size sherry trifle, a bottle of Moet champagne, a chicken, a t-bone steak, fruitcake, a Pavlova, a whole rack of lamb in one bite, two baguettes, a coctail of dairy products... and that's just the part of one meal actually described. Then there's the whole issue of super-fast tunneling via eating dirt and expelling it.

 * Deadpan Snarker

 * Voice With an Internet Connection: Perfectly summed up in this line "I'm right there with you, darling. Unless you trigger a land mine, in which case I'm in the Operation Room." Most of his 'field' time is this: talking through a headset to people in the field and supplying them with info.
