My answer: They are actually just anyone who wants to join. But they need to swear to Lady Artemis that they will ward off men forever. They will be immortal except if they fall in battle. They can be mortals, demigods, or just about anyone.
Orion was one such favored hunter.
Hippolytos was a devote of hers.
They are the chaste maidens that have sworn vows to Artemis to stay perfectly chaste and to stay away from men for the rest of their lives.
Assuming that this in reference to the Percy Jackson series, the Lieutenant of Artemis's huntresses was at first Zoe Nightshade, but after she died, Thalia Grace took over.
The Greek goddess of the Hunt was the pure virgin Artemis.
No; she did however have a host of maiden mortal huntresses and maiden goddesses.
Artemis' allies are:Her twin brother ApolloHer mother LetoHer father Zeus (though he raped some of her nymphs)All of her huntresses
Artemis is the Greek goddess of the hunt, and the moon. she has vowed to stay a maiden forever, and has a group of huntresses that follow her. In other words, no, she isn't really a "mean" goddess.
Minerva or Athena, Artemis, Venus, Echo, and the Mother of Hercules. The mother of Hercules was an enemy because Zeus was fooling around with her and Hera got mad. So, she killed her and tryed to kill Hercules to .
She controls the moon, (Opposite to her brother Apollo, who controls the sun) and is the goddess of animals. She is the goddess of the Hunt, so she hunts with her virgin huntresses.
Artemis was a goddess so she lived on Mount Olympus. She also traveled and hunted all over mountains and forests with her fellow huntresses. She was a goddess not a god! It is an insult to call a goddess a god!!
Actually Artemis had silver bow and arrows. Her twin brother, Apollo, had golden bow and arrows. Artemis got her silver bow and arrows from her father, Zeus, by asking him when she was very young. She also asked to be a Virgin forever, and to have a pack of girl dogs and to have huntresses to tend to her

Artemis ( Diane in Roman ) was the Goddess of Hunting, The Moon, Virgintity, and Animals. She was Apllo's twin sister and unlike Apollo she remained a virgin. Her mother is Leto and her father, Zeus. Artemis uses silver bows and rides a silver chariot forged by the Cyclposes.
Artemis is one of the only goddesses to resist Aphrodite's enchantments. She is the goddess of the hunt, eternal virgin, and of the childbirth. She has the power to turn anyone into an animal. She has a group of huntresses who are immortal, but they can die in battle. They all have to pledge that they will never trust a man and never loose their virginity. The y all must stay loyal to her wishes and NEVER have intercourse with a man. One story of Artemis I like is where she was bathing in a stream and a man was watching her with woo full eyes. She was furious (remember she is the eternal virgin and doesn't trust men at all) and she turned him into a deer. When her huntresses returned she ordered them to hunt him down (he is a deer now) and kill him. If you have more questions about any god or goddess, just ask and i will do my best to answer your question.
