Mrs. Gilmore
Art3mis is one of the most famous gunters in the world. She has a blog called Arty’s Missives, in which she discusses her research into Halliday’s obsessions, and it is through reading this blog that Wade develops a “massive cyber-crush on her.” Unlike most female OASIS users, Art3mis does not choose a super-skinny or “porn-style” body for her avatar, but rather a short, “Rubenesque” figure that reflects her real appearance. Art3mis and Wade develop a close relationship, but when Wade says he’s in love with her Art3mis shies away, insisting that he doesn’t really know her. By the novel’s end, she comes to trust Wade again and is prepared to reignite their relationship. In real life, Art3mis’ name is Samantha. She is a 19-year-old college student studying Creative Writing and Poetry.

Parzival: I've had a crush on you since before we even met. From reading your blog and watching your POV. I've been cyber-stalking you for years.

Parzival: This is the OASIS. We exist as nothing but raw personality in here.
Art3mis: I beg to differ. Everything about our online personas is filtered through our avatars, which allows us to control how we look and sound to others. The OASIS lets you be whoever you want to be. That’s why everyone is addicted to it.
