The goddess Artemis' responsibilities are to watch over children, protect new born creatures, aid women during childbirth, send plagues through wicked cities, kill men who committed rape, and help the hunt.
She was responsible for hunting and the Wild (along with Pan). She led the group the Hunters of Artemis.

She was also responsible for protecting maidens, women in childbirth, and new born creatures.
She is the goddess of the forest, animals and hunt.

Artemis was the great Olympian goddess of hunting, wilderness and wild animals. She was also a goddess of childbirth, and the protector of the girl child up to the age of marriage (being a goddess of virginity). Her twin brother Apollo was similarly the protector of the boy child. Together the two gods were also bringers of sudden death and disease--Artemis targeted women and girls, and Apollo men and boys.

She was also, like Apollo, a preventer of sudden death and disease so a goddess of good health.

The Greek goddess Artemis was a huntress. Her job was to protect wild animals, young girls, and woman in childbirth. She hunted with friends (only virgins, because she never wanted to get married. If she found out that one of them were not a virgin, they would be punished) and nymphs.
