Artyom or Tyomka, nicknamed Favorite, is a newbie bandit who was abandoned by his comrades to save their own skins. Despite the fact that he is weak and afraid to die, he still retains a certain rudeness and mockery if a lone stalker approaches him. He will be sarcastic and snap, although he may become kinder later. He doesn't give a damn about this Zone, he wants to go back to the city. Tyoma is wearing a black bandit jacket and a balaclava over his face. He is 21 years old.
