Butler is a Fictional Character in the '' Artemis Fowl '' series of books by Eoin Colfer . IMPORTANCE In the Artemis Fowl Series , the Butlers have been serving the Fowls for centuries. At the age of ten, young Butler children would be sent to a facility in a guarded and private place to get bodyguard training from a woman referred to as Madame Ko. Their training would include a customized blend of martial arts, marksmanship, first aid, information technology and Cordon Bleu cooking. At the end of their training, if there is not a Fowl to guard, they would work as bodyguards for other prominent families, generally in Monaco or Saudi Arabia. DOMOVOI BUTLER Butler is the bodyguard and something of a close friend to '' that Butler had his training in Switzerland and Israel. Butler is both highly trained and loyal, he has become a sort of a father/older brother figure to Artemis. Butler has been nearly killed twice, once in the '') by taking a bullet meant to kill Artemis. In this book, as he is about to die, Butler reveals his first name to be "Domovoi". Both times he is revived by Captain Holly Short 's magic. However, the second healing required some of his own life force in addition to Captain Short's magic, and he awoke a few days later to be about fifteen years older. He became slightly too old for the bodyguard business, and due to Kevlar tissue that became woven into his chest during his healing, he could no longer breathe as easily as he used to. He is, however, able to withstand small-caliber bullets fired at his chest. Another side-effect of the second healing is that he will live much longer then the average human. At the end of the third book, he is given cosmetic surgery and dwarf fat implants to mask his ageing before his memory is wiped by the fairies/LEP. He still remains Artemis' bodyguard and also a figure of wisdom and support. He revealed his first name to Artemis when he believed he was about to die, revealing to the young genius two things: he had been named for a Slavic Guardian Spirit and that the academy Butler had trained at (Madame Ko's Bodyguard Academy) instructed their students never to reveal their first names to their charge ever - and, since Artemis knew his friend would never break this rule unless it no longer mattered - that he was saying good-bye. His name is used by Artemis to secretly prepare Butler himself to regain his memory of the fairies after his and Artemis' minds are wiped, as Butler needed concrete evidence from someone he trusted completely (Artemis) to effect total recall, although prior to recall, both of them were beginning to experience surfacing of residual memories. FAMILY Little is known about Butler's family, besides his younger sister '' that Butler's uncle (the Major) was Artemis' father's ( Artemis Fowl I ) bodyguard. However, in the explosion of the '' Fowl Star '', the Major was killed and his body turned up in the Tchersky morgue. It was also revealed that of the two people in the world better trained in martial arts than Butler, he was related to one of them. The other lives on an island in the South China Sea and spends his time meditating and beating up palm trees. |
