Artemesia

Ms. Artemesia Delacruz (a.k.a. The Clerk)

Artemesia is the clerk who acts as the manager for freelance sewer contracts. In short, she's the one who assigns you your work.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Artemesia hails from Heapside. The district was terrorized by dire rats a few years ago. Her parents were murdered in the fighting and she was nearly slain herself when Ser Silvershield personally rescued Artemesia.   With her parents now dead, and her being the oldest, Artemesia was left with seven mouths to feed. Having pity on her, Sir Silvershield found her the Job's Clerk position in the Sanitary Hazard Infiltration Technician headquarters, where she coordinates missions and payments with freelance adventurers. Artemesia rather dislikes the position, but feels that she has nowhere better to go. She needs this job. She would like the job far more if Ser Silvershield could get any promotion and go elsewhere. Her goal in life is to make Ser Silvershield look so good that he gets that promotion.
