This is a list of characters in the

Camp Half-Blood chronicles, including the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series and in the Heroes of Olympus

series.

Main characters

Percy Jackson

Perseus "Percy" Jackson (nicknamed Seaweed Brain by Annabeth) is a 12-17-year-old "demigod" (in the Percy Jackson universe the son of a god and a mortal), the son of Sally Jackson and

narrator of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series and one of the main characters in the Heroes of Olympus series. As a child of one of the "Big Three" Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. Percy fulfils a major prophecy of the Oracle

, which foretold that the next half-blood child of the Big Three to reach the age of sixteen would have to make a decision that would mean the destruction or preservation of Mount Olympus

Percy is a son of Poseidon whom is part of the Big Three( Zeus, Hades and Poseidon)making him one of the most powerful demigods in the world.

The main plots of the five books of the

Titan army. Each of the Percy Jackson & the Olympians is loosely based on the myth of a Greek hero: The Lightning Thief is based on the story of Perseus; The Sea of Monsters on the stories of Odysseus and Jason combined; The Titan's Curse on the story of Hercules; The Battle of the Labyrinth on the story of Theseus; and The Last Olympian on the story of Achilles. He functions largely as an unseen character in The Lost Hero—in fact, he is the eponymous hero—but returns as the protagonist in The Son of Neptune, in which he suffers from amnesia and becomes affiliated with Camp Jupiter, an analogous camp for adolescent demigods with Roman characteristics rather than Greek. During the course of the series, he and Annabeth Chase develop mutual romantic feelings and begin dating. In the Mark of Athena, he willingly falls to Tartarus with Annabeth

.
Percy is disliked by several of the Olympian gods. Among them are Dionysus, who dislikes all demigods on principle; Athena, who is Annabeth's mother and his father's rival; Ares, who has fought him and loses when he is an unknowing accomplice of Luke in the first book; Hera, who has interfered in his quests; and Hades, who considers him an upstart. However, there are also gods who respect him such as Artemis, Apollo, Hestia, Hermes, Aphrodite, and his father Poseidon. Zeus has mixed feelings for him. Then there are those who have little to no emotion to him, such as Demeter, Hephaestus, and Persephone.
Percy is very good-looking. He is described as having his father's black hair and sea-green eyes, which are described as wild as the sea. His training at Camp Half-Blood helps make him athletic. He is above average height, with an athletic build and muscular arms. Piper McLean has described him as "unimpressive" next to her boyfriend Jason Grace, but she has also admittedly said that she thinks Percy is cute in a scruffy way, like a skater. Percy is described as being shorter than many people in the start of the series, but in the Last Olympian he says that he is "finally taller than Annabeth." He also has a mischievous look to him and is unpredictable.
Piper McLean says that only Annabeth Chase
can tame him. Percy can be like his nickname, Seaweed Brain, at times. Often he portrays himself as not very intelligent, but in times of crisis, he is quite the opposite.
Percy has a caring and generous personality, as he would do anything for anyone in need. His fatal flaw is his relentless loyalty. Percy is easily likeable by his peers. He quickly made his way to the top of Camp Half- Blood and did the same at Camp Jupiter, becoming praetor.
He was portrayed by Logan Lerman in the film adaptation of The Lightning Thief and The Sea of Monsters.^[1]

Annabeth Chase

Annabeth Chase is a 12-17-year-old, the daughter of Athena and Fredrick Chase. She runs away from home when she is seven years old, encountering two other demigods, Luke Castellan and Thalia Grace. Her birthday is July 12. When Grover Underwood, the satyr, finds them, he tries to lead them back to Camp Half-Blood but makes a wrong turn into a Cyclops's lair. The Cyclops captures Luke, Thalia, and Grover. When Annabeth finds them, the Cyclops mimics her dad's voice. To the Cyclops's surprise, she stabs him in the foot. Then she frees Thalia, who takes it from there, saving Luke and Grover. When she gets to camp, on Half-Blood Hill, Thalia holds up an army of monsters for them (Grover, Luke, and Annabeth) to get away. Thalia eventually gets hurt and is dying. Zeus (Thalia's dad) takes pity on her and turns her into a pine tree to save her life. For five years she waits for her chance to lead a quest into the real world. She gets her chance when Percy Jackson comes along.
In the first book, Percy describes her as having curly blonde hair, with a tan and athletic build. He says that she would look like a stereotype California girl, except her stormy gray eyes ruin the image. She is first seen when she is feeding Percy nectar and is asking him about what will happen at the summer solstice. He is expecting admiration from her after he defeats the Minotaur, which is what most of the demigods have been training for. Afterward, he sees her again when Chiron introduces them. She soon leaves. Annabeth has to introduce him to the Hermes cabin, where he is placed until he is claimed by Poseidon. She joins Percy on all his quests, except in The Titan's Curse, when she is captured, and in The Battle of the Labyrinth, where she becomes Quest Leader, taking Percy along as her second. In The Lightning Thief, Percy notices she seems to have a crush on Luke, but it disappears over the first series and is gone in The Last Olympian, as she tells Luke that although he was like a brother to her, but she didn't love him. She becomes jealous of Rachel Elizabeth Dare and Calypso, as she suspects Percy of having a crush on them. Annabeth kisses Percy in The Last Olympian and they begin to date. In The Lost Hero, when Percy goes missing, she searches non-stop for him until she and Jason Grace (Thalia's long-lost brother) come to the conclusion that he is in the Roman Camp, in California. In The Son of Neptune, she is the only person Percy remembers from his past. In The Mark of Athena, she and Percy reunite, and she has her own solo quest, to follow the Mark of Athena. She frees the Athena Parthenos by tricking Arachne, but in the end she and Percy fall into Tartarus when her leg is caught in one of Arachne's spiderwebs. She could not cut it because all of her stuff had fallen into Tartarus and Percy's sword, Riptide, was out of reach. In "The House of Hades" she and Percy stubble around Tararus together and finally find the doors of death, close them, and get,out of Tartarus.
Annabeth is considered to be extremely beautiful, especially by Percy. Aphrodite once complimented her, saying, "Annabeth, you've grown into quite a beautiful young lady." In The Mark of Athena, Chrysaor also complimented her by saying "It would be shameful to kill this pretty young lady." while he captured the Argo II. Annabeth is also very strong as shown in The Titans Curse where she was able to hold the weight of the sky, albeit briefly. Despite having good looks, she prides herself more on her intelligence and talent at fighting. As a daughter of Athena, Annabeth excels at anything having to do with academic studies or useful arts and crafts. One of her main weapons is her intellectual abilities, especially her strategic excellence. She is said to want to become an architect when she grows up and also redesigns Mount Olympus after the titan war. She is also a very powerful and experienced fighter, partially since she has been training since age seven.
In the Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief|first film adaptation]], Annabeth has brunette hair, while in the second film adaptation, she has partially blonde hair. She was portrayed by Alexandra Daddario in the film adaptation of "The Lightning Thief" and "Sea of Monsters".

Grover Underwood

Grover Underwood is a friend of Percy Jackson and a satyr. In the series, satyrs are in charge of identifying demigods living in the mortal world. Grover has found four of the most powerful ones: Percy Jackson, Thalia Grace, and Nico and Bianca di Angelo, all children of the Big Three. After serving as Percy's protector in The Lightning Thief, he became a searcher, a coveted job among satyrs, enabling him to seek the lost god Pan. When Polyphemus captures him in The Sea of Monsters, he forms a psychic bond with Percy, called an empathy link, allowing them a limited degree of telepathic communication across great distances. He uses this ability to guide Percy to his rescue. He joins Percy's quest to find Artemis in The Titan's Curse, and in the process falls in love with a tree nymph named Juniper, although apparantly fell in love with a "blueberry bush". He eventually finds Pan in The Battle of The Labyrinth, who peacefully dies, and eventually gains recognition from the elder satyrs for his courage in battle against the Titans, where he led along Percy. In the end of The Last Olympian he becomes the God of the Wild and a part of The Council of Cloven Elders. Grover helps Rachel deliver a message from Annabeth to Reyna in The House of Hades.
Riordan mentioned in a blog post Grover would appear briefly in The House of Hades.^[2]
Grover is described as having curly brown hair, little goat horns, and brown eyes, white pimply skin, a brown chin beard, and brown goat-legs.
In the film adaptations, Grover is portrayed by Brandon T. Jackson.

Thalia Grace

Thalia Grace (pronounced THAH-lee-uh) is a 15 (immortal)-year-old demigod, a daughter of
pine
tree to save her from death.
Percy and his friends restore Thalia to life with the power of the Golden Fleece, and she joins them for the quest in The Titan's Curse. She soon joins the Hunters of Artemis, a band of immortal female archers in service to the goddess Artemis. Thalia joins the hunters the day before her sixteenth birthday, so that she wouldn't be the child of the prophecy. In The Last Olympian, she and the other Hunters help fight the Titan army of Kronos.
Thalia has electric-blue eyes and spiky black hair, and she wears dark makeup and punk style clothing. Annabeth considers Thalia's personality to be very close to Percy's. In April 2012, Paloma Kwiatkowski was cast as Thalia for the Sea of Monsters film adaptation.^[3]
Thalia Grace has a silver bracelet and when she touches it, it changes into a shield, Aegis. She carries her spear in a collapsible Mace container. The shield Aegis is said to have Medusa's face moulded into it, and people scatter in fear at the sight of it. Thalia was either named after the muse or the Grace, Thalia, both daughters of Zeus.

Nico di Angelo

Nico di Angelo was ten when he first meets Percy and is most recently 14 in House of Hades, the only living human son of
Las Vegas, where time behaves differently and people don't age. Over 70 years passed before one of Hades's Furies, Alecto, removed them from the Lotus to Washington, D.C. Subsequently, the siblings grew up in a boarding school in Maine, Westover Hall. Unlike most demigods, he does not live at Camp Half-Blood or Camp Jupiter, because although Percy Jackson's reward at the end of The Last Olympian included all demigods being treated fairly, he is not truly accepted at Camp Half Blood because of his father Hades
. It has been confirmed Nico Di Angelo will be played by Josh Peck.
After his sister Bianca dies while on a quest with Percy, Nico holds a grudge against him, but the two later reconcile when Nico speaks to his sister's ghost. In The Last Olympian, he convinces Percy to bathe in the
River Styx, granting Percy invincibility except in one extremely vulnerable spot, like Achilles
. Nico also persuades Hades to lead the armies of the dead in defense of Olympus, despite the god's longstanding grudge against the Olympians. In recognition of their service, Camp Half-Blood erects a cabin for the children of Hades. In The Son of Neptune, Nico is captured while seeking the Doors of Thanatos, which Gaea's forces are controlling to prevent their death. He is captured in a sealed bronze jar. Piper, Jason, and Percy rescue him at the end of The Mark of Athena. He senses Annabeth and Percy are not dead after they fall into Tartarus. In The House of Hades, Nico leads the group across Italy to meet Percy and Annabeth at the Necromanteion in Epirus to close the Doors of Death, and on the way there faces Cupid in Split to gain the scepter of Diocletian alongside Jason Grace. During their encounter, Nico reveals under pressure by Cupid that he has romantic feelings for Percy Jackson, though he chooses to keep it a secret from everyone else out of fear of rejection. However, it is not revealed whether he still holds this feeling, but is decidedly hostile towards Percy throughout the rest of the book. In the end, Nico travels back to America along with Reyna and Coach Hedge, carrying the Athena Parthenos along with them.
Throughout the series there are several hints towards his crush at Percy, and Nico is shown to care more about Percy's welfare and opinion of him more than most of the other characters in the novels.
Unlike most demigods, who fight with
ghosts to sleep, silence ghosts with a gesture, summon undead warriors, communicate with the dead, power to destroy skeleton warriors, he can sense death, and, using Umbrakinesis, travel through shadows
which is also known as shadow travel.
Nico has manic black eyes (like his father), messy, long black hair, and olive colored skin. He favors a brown aviator's jacket. He also had a skull ring on in The Last Olympian, The Son of Neptune and The Mark of Athena.
Also, Rick Riordan provided Nico with two separate birthdates, January 28 and May 16 of 1924. The year provides that the pact the Big Three made is sometime in 1934 or 35, making Nico about nine or ten when he is placed in the Casino. This confuses many due to World War II having ended around ten years later, the end being when the Big Three made the Oath.

Luke Castellan

Luke Castellan is a 19-year-old demigod, the son of Hermes and May Castellan. Introduced as the friendly head counselor of the Hermes cabin in The Lightning Thief, he is soon revealed as an antagonist and a servant of Kronos. Luke holds a grudge against the gods after his father doesn't help him when his mother has fits from being driven insane from seeing the future. After running away from home at age nine, he travels around the country with Thalia and then, eventually, Annabeth. It is hinted in The Demigod Diaries that he and Thalia were in a romantic relationship, seen when Thalia kisses him on the cheek and he obviously cares a lot about her seeing as he added Thalia's death to list of things the gods were to pay for in The Lightning Thief and how he pleaded for her to join Kronos' side in The Titan's Curse. Near the end of The Battle of the Labyrinth, Luke bathes in the Styx, obtaining the curse of Achilles, in order to host the spirit of Kronos. He changes back into his own self for a moment after Rachel Elizabeth Dare hits him with a hairbrush while he is possessed by Kronos. He allows Kronos to use his body in the war against the Olympians, but redeems himself by stabbing his Achilles spot (his weak spot) near his armpit on his left arm, destroying himself and Kronos. He turns out to be the hero of the prophecy because of his sacrifice. As he dies, Luke explains to Percy the sadness he feels for all the kids who end up in his father's cabin because they are unclaimed, which inspires Percy's requests from the gods, which are for Camp Half-Blood to recognize the minor gods and the gods' duty of having to claim their children at the age of thirteen.
Luke is described as handsome, with sandy hair, blue eyes (gold when possessed by Kronos), and a long scar on his cheek given to him by Ladon the Dragon, while trying to steal a golden apple from the Garden of Hesperides; a quest offered to him by Hermes, God of Travelers and Thieves, which he failed.
In the film adaptations, Luke is played by Jake Abel.

Jason Grace

Main article:
Jason Grace

Jason Grace is a 15-year-old demigod, (16, in The Mark of Athena) a son of
Jupiter, brother of Thalia Grace, and a protagonist of the Heroes of Olympus series. He comes from Camp Jupiter, the Roman equivalent of Greek Camp Half-Blood, where demigods born to the Olympians' Roman aspects receive their training. Unbeknownst to the people in Camp Half-Blood, Jason led Camp Jupiter in a concurrent war against the Titans. While Percy led the defense of Olympus in Manhattan, Jason led an assault against Mount Othrys, a Titan stronghold near San Francisco
.
In The Lost Hero, Hera /Juno switches him and Percy Jackson the respective leaders at their camps and steals their memories. In the rest of the book, Jason's memories begin to return to him as he quests to rescue Hera and Piper's father. He and Piper also develop romantic feelings for each other. Eventually Jason, Piper, and Leo meet Percy and Annabeth to discuss an alliance between the camps against Gaea's armies, as Hera had planned.
Jason is described as having cropped golden-blond hair, blue eyes, and a scar above his upper lip (according to Thalia, his older sister, he has tried eating a stapler when he was two). He is above average height, with an athletic build and muscular arms. He has a tattoo burned under his forearm, with twelve straight lines like a bar code, an eagle, and the letters SPQR over the lines. The tattoo symbolizes his twelve years (made every year since he is three) spent at Camp Jupiter; the eagle is a symbol of Jupiter.

Leo Valdez

Main article:
Leo Valdez

Leo Valdez is a 15-year-old demigod, a son of Hephaestus
. Leo is described as looking like a "Latino Santa's Elf" with curly black hair, dark brown eyes, a cheerful face, short with a slim build, and having a mischievous smile. He befriends Jason at the "Wilderness School", although it is later revealed that everything that happened prior to the Grand Canyon museum trip is actually a trick of the Mist, a supernatural force that actively attempts to hide the mythical world from mortals (and sometimes demigods) by changing how mortals perceive and remember events. Leo also has the ability to touch and produce fire, a skill that no son of Hephaestus has had in 400 years. He is also an excellent mechanic due to his father's abilities and has experience working with machines, as his mother was also a mechanic. In The Lost Hero, he discovers a secret bunker hidden in the forest near camp, which contains a magic tool belt that grants him almost anything he wants, including breath mints. He uses Bunker Nine to repair a bronze dragon that was previously running wild in the camp's woods, naming it Festus (Latin translation:Happy) after his initial mispronunciation of his father's name. He also creates the Argo II in the same bunker, a ship to sail the seven for the quest to Greece.
Leo is a joker who cannot keep his hands still, and he tends to fall quickly for girls. In The Mark Of Athena it is hinted he might have feelings for
Hazel Levesque, although in The House of Hades he falls in love with Calypso
during his stay in Ogygia.
In The Son of Neptune, Hazel Levesque discovers that Leo resembles her former boyfriend, Sammy Valdez. She suspects Sammy may be an ancestor of Leo's, which is discovered to be true; Hazel and Leo figure out that Sammy Valdez is Leo's great-grandfather in The Mark of Athena.
Even before discovering that his father is a Greek god in "The Lost Hero", Leo knows that he is a strange boy. When he was two years old, he remembers being babysat by a mysterious old woman that called herself "Tia Callida" (Auntie Callida). Leo describes in "The Lost Hero" about his first experience with Tia Callida; she had sang a strange song that had made little Leo sleepy. She had then laid him in "a cozy book in the wall". Leo remembers thinking that he was in a little, warm nook with red and yellow pillows, and later on, he realizes that he was sleeping a blazing fireplace. Surprisingly, the fire didn't seem to affect him. Tia Callida came back when he was four years old and five years old (respectively). Leo describes being made to chase a rattlesnake and to chop jalapenos, even though the juice got to his eyes. The last time Leo ever saw Tia Callida, she had brought him a pack of crayons and a sheet of paper. She sat by him, singing her strange songs, while Leo drew an impressive ship, which sadly flew away in the wind. In "The Lost Hero" Leo realizes that Tia Callida is really Hera.
Leo is very close to his mother, Esperanza Valdez, who died when he was eight years old. Leo loved to help out his mother in his machine shop, and although business was barely ever made there, the two would chat like long-lost souls that had found each other. On the night of Esperanza's death, Leo remembers exiting the machine shop with his mother. Esperanza remembers that she has forgotten to lock the shop. She goes back in for her keys, when suddenly, the door locks shut. Leo summoned fire after Gaea appeared, which burned down the shop and cost his mother's life.

Piper McLean

Main article:
Piper McLean

Piper McLean, is a 15-year-old demigod, a daughter of
Jason Grace. Unlike most children of Aphrodite, Piper is tomboyish, unconcerned with her appearance or fashion. Her father is Tristan McLean, a famous Cherokee actor. She has the ability to use charmspeak, a power of persuasion and a rare ability in Aphrodite's children. She has unwittingly used this power to talk people into giving her things, such as a BMW convertible, and been accused of theft
in the process. She owns a dagger, Katropis (Looking Glass in Ancient Greek), that used to belong to Helen of Troy. It allows her to see images from the future, but she often describes it as a nuisance when it shows her disturbing images. She uses it to predict events, but they are often warped or show only part of the picture. At Camp Half-Blood, she refuses to give in to the bullying of her cabin's head counsellor Drew, and eventually successfully challenges her for the position. She can speak French, as she is a daughter of Aphrodite and French is the language of love.
Piper is described as having uneven chocolate brown hair, and has eyes that change color. Piper is half-Cherokee on her father's side. She has a slim build and an average height.
When she first appeared in the series and was claimed by Aphrodite she didn't like her "pretty/girly makeover" and she tried everything to ruin/get rid of it. She is the only other known "charmspeak" person including the last head counsellor. Piper is known to stand up for herself and other people. When Piper didn't know about Camp it seems like people teased her about her dad. Piper seems shy but she is actually brave and kind. For a portion of The Mark of Athena, she was jealous of Percy and Annabeth's relationship while Jason was acting distant. She is in The Lost Hero, The Mark of Athena, and The House of Hades, and appeared briefly in The Son of Neptune.

Hazel Levesque

Main article:
Hazel Levesque

Hazel Levesque is a 13-year-old demigod, a daughter of
precious metals and gems would frequently come up from the ground near her when she got nervous or summoned them. However, these materials were badly cursed, and brought misfortune to anyone who took them. Hazel's mother is convinced by Gaea to take her to Alaska where Gaea tries to use Hazel's power over earth to bring forth the her eldest son, the giant Alcyoneus. When Hazel's mother changes her mind about helping Gaea, Hazel buries herself and her mother by calling on the riches beneath the earth, and delaying Alcyoneus's rebirth. She dies in 1942, and gives up the chance to go to Elysium to save her mother from punishment, sending them both to Asphodel instead. Her mother is a Louisiana Creole, so Hazel knows a small amount of French
.
Before the series began, Nico di Angelo unsuccessfully seeks his sister Bianca in the
Arion
, a violent, speedy horse that eats precious metals. She had a crush on Sammy Valdez back in her first life and gets him confused with Leo. Sammy is his bisabuelo, meaning great-grandfather.
Hazel is described as
African American
, having cocoa-colored skin, cinnamon-brown hair, and golden eyes.

Frank Zhang

Main article:
Frank Zhang

Frank Zhang is a 16-year-old demigod, a son of
Chinese Canadian, and grows up with his grandmother after his mother is killed serving in the Canadian Army
. Upon Percy's arrival at Camp Jupiter, Frank is the first to accept him.
Frank has a meek disposition and is uncomfortable upon learning his father's identity. He suspected himself a son of Apollo, given his skill with a bow and arrow, his preferred weapon. On his quest in The Son of Neptune, however, he uses an enchanted spear given to him by Mars when threatened by basilisks. To Frank's surprise, the spear summons a skeleton warrior that defeats the basilisks. Frank is a descendant of Periclymenus, a grandson of Poseidon, meaning he is a relative to Percy, with the power to shapeshift. Periclymenus's descendants were sold into slavery in China, and migrated to Canada many years later. While battling Alcyoneus (who is invincible within Alaska), Frank tapped into this power and transformed into an elephant, after dragging Alcyoneus across the state line to Canada where he could be killed. However, his combined power of being a son of Mars and having the ability to shapeshift gives him too much power. The Fates balance this out by tying his life force to a piece of firewood; if the wood burns out, he will die. Juno appears to his mother while he is a baby to warn her of this fact, as he would be crucial to defeating the Giants. She grabs the stick and extinguishes the flame when Juno disappears. In all his life, Frank has ignited the wood twice; the first time is while he is finding his way to Camp Jupiter. It is snowing and he is cold, so he thinks about the stick igniting, and it does. However, he can feel his life force draining away, even though it warms him. He thrusts it into the snow to put it out. The second time is when he, Percy, and Hazel travel to Alaska to free Thanatos.
Frank was described as 'cuddly' and 'fuzzy' and with a chubby, babyish face in The Mark of Athena, but in The House of Hades, after summoning the Blessing of Mars to defeat a hoard of enemies, he transforms. He is then described as being taller, more muscular and loses all his childhood fat.
Initially, he was wary of the tension between Hazel and Leo, as Leo reminded Hazel of her old boyfriend, Sammy Valdez. After Leo's encounter with Calypso, however, Leo became more relaxed around Hazel and there were no more signs of anything other than friendship, much to Frank's relief.

Reyna Avila Ramírez-Arellano

Main Article:
Reyna Avila Ramírez-Arellano

Reyna Avila Ramírez-Arellano is a demigod daughter of Bellona at Camp Jupiter, she's the sister of Hylla, the Amazon Queen. She's a praetor at Camp Jupiter, which she leads alone during the disapearence of Jason. She was born in Puerto Rico and worked for Circe during the first series with her sister. Reyna is often accompained by her pegasus Scipio and her automatons, Aurum and Argetum, who can sense if someone is lying and will attack. In the end of The House of Hades, Scipio pass out due to exhaustion and poisoning.

When he tells her the Argo II is coming, she doesn't fight back, but tells everyone to be ready if it's a setup. In The Mark of Athena she takes Annabeth for a tour around New Rome when they meet, trying to see if she can trust her or not, but after Leo's attack, her trust for Annabeth is not as big as it was. The two cross paths again in Fort Sumter, where Reyna asks for Annabeth to go on trial, Annabeth refuses and Reyna admits that she can't stop Octavian anymore, but doesn't capture Annabeth. She is shown in Katopris in New York, while the other planned the route of invasion to Camp Half-Blood, Reyna looked outside the window. She is show in mutiple visions in The House of Hades, Annabeth dreams with her while in Tartarus, making her send a letter to her, believing that Reyna should be the one to bring the Athena Partenos to Half-Blood Hill. Later, Jason sees her in a dream talking to both Rachel and Grover, accepting Annabeth's wish. Reyna then orders Octavian and the other Demigods to wait until she returns, she leaves with Scipio right after, even knowing that she could lose her rank. Though her possible last order doesn't last long, as Octavian tells the demigods they will continue. She then fights her way until the Argo II with only Scipio as her companion, impressing Percy when they talk. After dinner with the Argo II, she leaves together with Nico and Coach Hedge, back to New York.

Greek/Roman Gods

Jupiter - The King of the Gods, Lord of the Sky, and God of Lightning. Zeus is brother to Poseidon and Hades, uncle to Percy, Nico, and Bianca, father of Thalia, and son of Kronos. Jupiter is brother to Pluto and Neptune, father to Jason, and uncle to Hazel. His symbol of power is his Master Bolt. He is prominent in The Lightning Thief,^[4] but has only small roles in the rest of Percy Jackson & the Olympians. He is associated with the colour blue. In The Lost Hero, under the influence of Khione, Zeus forbids contact between gods and mortals and closes down Olympus, although he indirectly aids the demigods several times on their quest, such as answering his son's prayer for aid against Enceladus.^[5] In the film adaptation, Zeus is played by Sean Bean
.

Hera/Juno - The Queen of the Gods and Goddess of Marriage. Hera plays a small role in The Titan's Curse,^[6] but helps Percy and the others on their quest in The Battle of the Labyrinth.^[7] Cabin 2 at Camp Half-Blood is dedicated to her, but is perpetually empty; as the goddess of marriage, she has not given birth to any demigods. She frequently meddles in the affairs of demigods, however. As Juno in The Lost Hero, she is kidnapped by Gaea, and she contacts Jason Grace to rescue her. Previously, as Juno, she had sneaked out of Olympus and exchanged Percy and Jason to try to unite the Roman and Greek demigods, going against the wishes of Zeus in doing so. Compared to Hera, Juno is more rebellious; she states that Hera would not have disobeyed Zeus as she did.^[8] In the film adaptation, Hera is played by Erica Cerra.

Achelous - A River God with the face of a man and the head of a bull. He had previously fought with Hercules where Hercules removed one of Achelous' horns. In The Mark of Athena, Hercules sends Jason Grace and Piper McLean to obtain Achelous's other horn. When Achelous was unwilling to give up his other horn to Hercules, Piper cuts off his other horn yet doesn't give it to Hercules. Piper uses his horn as a cornucopia at Hercules, and food comes pouring out of the mouth of the horn, burying Hercules. They fly away from Hercules's, island leaving behind a mourning Achelous and an angry Hercules.

Aeolus - The Custodian of the Four Winds. Aeolus is an unseen character in the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series. In The Last Olympian, he manipulates the winds to form a barrier around Olympus that protects it from air attacks from the Titans. This also impedes Pegasus traffic, however.^[9] In The Lost Hero, he has gone insane attempting to fill all the requests of the gods and wants to be recognized as a major god.

Akhlys - The Goddess of Misery and keeper of the Death Mist. In "The House of Hades," Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase meet Akhlys to so they can hide themselves in the Death Mist. Percy uses his powers over water to will the poison back to her which causes her to flee from them. It is during this that a darker side is revealed in Percy's persona.

Amphitrite - The Queen of the Seas. Amphitrite is the wife of Poseidon and a daughter of Oceanus. She is resentful of Percy, a living testament to her husband's unfaithfulness. She is described as a beautiful goddess, with black hair and small horns like crab claws.

Anemoi - The four Wind Gods.
Boreas/Aquilon - The God of the North Wind. Jason, Piper, and Leo seek Boreas in his palace in The Lost Hero. Jason, Piper, and Leo meet him in his palace when they come to him for help. He has two immortal children who were Argonauts, and is the father of Khione.

Notus - The God of the South Wind who appears in The House of Hades.

Zyphyrus/Favonius - The God of the West Wind who appears in The House of Hades.

Aphrodite/Venus - The Goddess of Love, Beauty, and Lust. Aphrodite first appears briefly in The Titan's Curse. When Percy meets her, her appearance shifts constantly, matching every girl he has ever had a crush on (including Annabeth). Aphrodite is also the last child of Ouranos.^[6] Most of Aphrodite's demigod offspring are female, such as Silena Beauregard and Piper McLean. She is associated with the colour pink. The latter's tomboyish habits vex Aphrodite, who twice changes Piper's appearance to make her look more beautiful.^[10] In The Mark of Athena, Aphrodite and Venus are revealed to be almost identical in personality and portfolio (the only difference is that Venus is more interested in high society functions), so the goddess is not rocked by an identity crisis like the rest of the Olympians. This does not make much sense, for seeing as Apollo had the same Roman name as his Greek name, his forms should not be changing. In the film adaptation, Aphrodite is played by Serinda Swan.

Apollo - The God of the Sun, Light, Poetry, Healing, Truth, Plague, Prophecy, Music, Arts, the Oracle, and more. It is said that Zeus gave Apollo more powers than any other god because he is responsible. Apollo drives a flying red Maserati Spyder convertible that glows brightly like the sun. He appears to be about 18 or 19 years old, with sandy-colored hair, sky-blue eyes, and dazzling white teeth. Apollo seems flirtatious, playful, and optimistic, but he can also be one of the most dangerous gods when he wants to be. He also has the most children out of any other male god. Apollo wears Ray-Ban sunglasses and sports an iPod. Percy notes that he looks similar to Luke, but less evil and without a scar. Apollo is also described by Thalia Grace as being "hot". He is associated with the colour gold. Like most other gods, Apollo is arrogant and has a big ego, and he is described as a very annoying brother by his sister Artemis. Apollo helps Percy and his friends by flying them to Camp Half-Blood in The Titan's Curse. Apollo also mentioned that Helios and Selene faded away when the Romans didn't build their temples.^[6] In The Last Olympian, he heals Annabeth's broken arm after she was thrown into her mother's throne by kronos. At the end of the war between the Titans and the gods, he certifies Rachel Dare as the new Oracle. His Greek and Roman forms have the same name, as he claims that "perfection can't be improved". In the film adaptation, Apollo is played by Dimitri Lekkos.

Clarisse La Rue, whom he blesses in battle in The Last Olympian. He is associated with the colour red. He appears as Mars in The Son of Neptune after a war game in Camp Jupiter, announcing the capture of Thanatos. He then claims Frank as his son, commissioning him to lead a quest to Alaska to free Thanatos. Mars is much more forward-thinking and strategic than Ares. In the film adaptation, Ares is played by Ray Winstone
.

auburn hair and silver-yellow eyes, the color of the full moon. Artemis leads the Hunters of Artemis, a group of girls who pledge to give up love in exchange for immortality and agelessness.

She is rescued by Percy, who holds the sky for her while she fights Atlas. Together, Artemis and Percy trick Atlas into taking back the sky. Thalia then joins her Hunters, preventing Thalia from fulfilling the Oracle's prophecy.^[6] Satyrs are also reported to be attracted to Artemis because she is "so into nature" as put by Grover.^[11] In the film adaptation, Artemis is played by Ona Grauer
.

Athena/Minerva - The Goddess of Wisdom and Battle Strategy. Athena first appears in The Titan's Curse, where she dislikes Percy and his relationship with her daughter.^[6] Athena is beautiful, but serious and foreboding. Like most of her demigod children, she has grey eyes. She has been alternately described as having black and blonde hair. She does not actually give birth to her children; rather, they are conceived and born in her mind, just as she herself sprang from the mind of Zeus; a child of Athena is a literal brainchild. Athena considers Percy dangerous, given his potential to fulfil the prophecy that could destroy Olympus. She is associated with the colour grey. Percy considers her the most dangerous Olympian because of her calculating intelligence, which ensures that her plans rarely fail. Her Roman form, Minerva, is much less imposing, being simply a virgin goddess of wisdom, and since the Romans take virginity quite seriously, Minerva has no children. The massive differences between Athena and Minerva render the goddess functionally insane during conflicts between the Greek and Roman demigods. Athena has a personal vendetta against Rome and Roman demigods ever since the Romans stole the Athena Parthenos statue from Athens during their original invasion of Greece, and over the centuries has sent many of her children on suicide missions to retrieve it. In the film adaptation, Athena is played by Melina Kanakaredes.

Deimos - The God of Terror. A son of Ares, Deimos only appears in the "Percy Jackson and the Stolen Chariot" story in The Demigod Files, where he torments Clarisse, a demigod daughter of Ares; Percy and Clarisse cooperate to defeat him.^[12]

In the film adaptation, Demeter is played by Stefanie von Pfetten.

Dionysus/Bacchus - The God of Wine and Madness. Dionysus is Percy's cousin and the father of Castor and Pollux. He is the camp director of Camp Half-Blood, a position given to him as a punishment by his father Zeus for chasing an off-limits nymph. At camp, he is known as "Mr. D."^[4] Dionysus hates his job and has a low opinion of demigods because of Theseus's abandonment of Ariadne (whom Dionysus made into his wife) and how Jason abandoned Medea. He is associated with the colour purple. He enjoys playing with the camp satyrs.^[13] In The Battle of the Labyrinth, he goes in search of minor gods to recruit against the Titans.^[7] Although he claims Percy "always manages to annoy him," he has saved the lives of Percy and his friends on several occasions. When war breaks out between the Greek and Roman demigods, Dionysus goes through an identity crisis, but is able to focus enough to force himself to remain in his Bacchus form. In the film adaptations, Dionysus is played by Luke Camilleri in the first film and by Stanley Tucci in the second film.

Although technically not an Olympian, Hades is still considered to be one of the most powerful gods as he is one of the original six gods to be born of Kronos and Rhea. He is the middle brother of Poseidon and Zeus, father of Nico, Bianca, and Hazel, uncle to Percy, Jason, and Thalia, and son of Kronos and Rhea. He is the husband of his niece Persephone. Hades is portrayed as cunning and resentful of the Olympians proper, though not specifically hostile to them. He is associated with the colour black. In The Last Olympian, he traps Percy, planning to hold him in an underworld prison so Nico can fulfill the great prophecy. Nico, however, helps convince Hades to join in defense of Olympus against Kronos and the Titans. After his army of the dead helps Olympus win, the Olympians reward him, his demigod children, and the minor gods with full recognition at Camp Half-Blood.^[9] In the film adaptation, Hades is played by Steve Coogan and is depicted as also having a fiery winged demon form.

Heracles/Hercules - The greatest and strongest hero in Greek mythology who is the son of Zeus. He is married to his half-sister Hebe, making her his third wife. Heracles was mentioned a lot in the Camp Half-Blood franchise. In The Titan's Curse, Zoë Nightshade was the one who gave Heracles the ideas for several of his labors, including how to steal the Apples of the Hesperides. Percy was not pleased that Heracles never gave Zoë any of the credit for this. In The Demigod Diaries episode "Percy Jackson and the Staff of Hermes," Hercules was mentioned by Cacus, who stated that Hercules was the only one to have defeated him. Hercules appears as a god in The Mark of Athena. He is tasked by Zeus to guard the Pillars of Hercules. Hercules is willing to let the demigods pass into the Mediterranean Sea at first. But when Jason and Piper mentioned that they were ordered by Hera to stop the Giants, he becomes uncooperative and orders them to break the remaining horn of the god Achelous. They do so, but Piper refuses to give the horn to Hercules, which enrages him. Yet the demigods manage to escape his wrath when Piper uses the Horn of Achelous to bury Hercules in food.

There she sends the demigods to Phineus to discern the location of Thanatos. Her cabin at Camp Half-Blood is cabin 14.

Janus - The God of Gates, Doorways, Beginnings, and Endings. He appears as a minor character in The Battle of the Labyrinth, where he offers Annabeth a choice between two doors, which represents the situation she was in when she had to make the decision about saving Luke's soul.^[7] He has two faces, and each face seems to think the exact opposite of what the other face thinks.

She was punished thus for supporting her father Atlas in the Titanomachy.^[7] She is thought to be released from her punishment at Percy's wish near the end of The Last Olympian, but it is clear that she is not because Leo got sent there and Calypso is still on the island as seen in the "House of Hades."

His major crimes involved cheating death twice. The first where he tricked Thanatos into showing him how the chains worked causing Thanatos to be trapped until Ares freed him (Thanatos being trapped displeased Ares since no one in battle could die). The second time was when he complained to Persephone that his wife Merope did not give him a proper funeral and sent Sisyphus' spirit to the living. Even when Sisyphus did not want to return to the Underworld, he was forcefully dragged back there by Hermes. His punishment in The Fields of Punishment was to push a boulder up a hill; when it reached the top, the boulder would roll back to the bottom and Sisyphus was condemned to begin again. He appears in The Demigod Files in the story titled The Sword of Hades when Percy and Nico ask him advice while Thalia pushes the boulder up the hill. He does not really help them much, but he does say that he helped someone else. He said that he told that other person to go see Melinoe.

He appears in The Sea of Monsters as a minor character. Even when hired as the activities director, he could not eat or drink as the food kept evading him. Tantalus is shown to hate Percy and his friends even more than he hates most half-bloods, yet shows favoritism to Clarisse, as when naming her hero when the camp was attacked by Colchis Bulls or when she wins the chariot race and throwing a banquet in her honor. When Tyson is brought to camp, Tantalus insults and makes fun of him even when Tyson is claimed by Poseidon. When the camp is attacked by a large flock of Stymphalian birds, Tantalus blames it on Percy, Annabeth, and Tyson's "bad chariot driving" despite that they were the ones who defeated the birds. At the end of the book, his curse is lifted by Dionysus just before he is sent back to the Underworld as he attempts to take some food along. Though none of the campers are sad to see him go.
