Artful was born in France, as the youngest child of an unnamed family, having two older brothers. His family owned a business which was primarily focused in construction, which Artful was originally going to take over. Artful was also linked to magic since birth, and knew how to do magic tricks.

Eventually, Artful became a construction worker, but he was involved in an accident that resulted in him getting a paid leave. Artful would study magic during his free time, and would eventually learn to make actual magic instead of just mere tricks, leading to him becoming the famous magician he was known for.

Artful had a #1 fan named Lizzy, who became a regular at his performances, and subsequently recognizable to him in the crowds. Lizzy also interacted with Artful consistently after each show, and even gifted him a teddy bear.

Artful's life took a complete turn when one of his performances went particularly badly. He was absolutely pelted with banana peels, causing him to descend into a fit of endless rage where he slaughtered all of the audience, however Lizzy survived with critical injuries. This event would result in Artful living the rest of his life as a criminal on the run, alongside carrying the guilt of having thought to have murdered Lizzy. Due to being on the run, he also had to release his pet goldfish, Goldie, in a pond at a local park.

Not much is known about Artful's personality, but he is shown to be very short-tempered at times and narcissistic to the point of violence as evidenced by the incident).

Artful is a black and white Robloxian with an angry face. He is dressed in a formal attire consisting of a wide-brimmed black top hat or fedora hat, a white dress shirt with a black tie under a black vest with black trousers and black shoes. His face is covered by a black half-broken mask resembling a Phantom of the Opera mask. Artful also wields a magic wand.
