Artemis Fowl I is Artemis Fowl's father.

He disappeared several years before the events of Artemis Fowl, the Russian Mafia bombed his ship, the Fowl Star, as it went around to Kola Peninsula, in Russia. This is because they did not want competition in their market from a westerner. He remained unconscious for most of a year before awakening. Though legally dead, his son Artemis Fowl II, never gave up the hope that he was still alive. His son was able to rescue him from aforementioned mafia with the help of Holly Short in The Arctic Incident. Holly used her magic to heal his injuries and partially affected him to turn over a new leaf, and he has since been trying to get the Fowl family back to being 'legit'. This plan has been succeeding.

Artemis Fowl I was described as being a great criminal like the rest of the Fowls. He had a love for gold and held the family business and fortune as high priority. His son described him as being a gruff, no- nonsense type of man who taught him the workings of the stock market and the running of the family buisness.

However, after his return from Russia, he became a new man. He decided to become an honest buisness man. His personality also changed drastically to a joking and loving husband and father. His wife, Angeline Fowl, mentions that these characteristics were that of the man she had married before he took on the family buisness.

[edit] Physical Appearance

One of his legs is a prosthetic. It was amputated from the combination being damaged in the accident and lack of good care to heal it. In Artemis Fowl: The Lost Colony, when Artemis Fowl II sees his hair covered with grey ash, he swears he could have been looking at his father, suggesting that Artemis Fowl I resembles Artemis Fowl II.
