it's my life :D

Personality and fatal flaw

Percy is usually portrayed as being good-natured, friendly, brave, and often willing to risk his life to save his friends, strangers, and even his non-monstrous foes. He also tends to do and blurt out things before thinking, no matter of the consequences, causing him to get in a lot of trouble sometimes. In the Demigod Files, Annabeth Chase mentions he is technically smart but seems to act dumb; and is obtuse, such as he does not get obvious things, such as people's feelings. He is angered by Thalia Grace often, as their similar personalities and leadership styles tend to clash. However, they are still very good friends. Percy has a sarcastic sense of humor and is wry in his narration.

Percy seems to dislike titles being given to him, as he always tells horses, which his father is said to have created, not to call him "boss" or "lord" whenever they talk to him, though he will allow Annabeth (and only Annabeth) to dub him "Seaweed Brain". He also has a strong sense of loyalty and fairness, as he turned down godhood when it was offered to him in order to remain with his friends Annabeth and Grover. Instead, he asks that the gods, especially the minor ones, recognize and claim all of their children by the time they turn thirteen years old. Although apparently considered good-looking, Percy has trouble talking to girls.

He is also the only living demigod to duel a Titan, in his case 4: Atlas, Iapetus, Hyperion, and Kronos (numerous times) and live, apart from Jason Grace, who has dueled Krios, and lived. He is also one of the only demigods, besides Jason, to have defeated a Titan without any help (Iapetus).

His fatal flaw is loyalty. He will risk his life for anyone he cares for; his friends, family, and even his enemies. Athena the goddess of wisdom and crafts tells him this. Kronos exploits this flaw many times in the series.

[edit]The Lightning Thief

Main article: The Lightning Thief

Perseus "Percy" Jackson is introduced as a troubled 12-year-old boy who has been diagnosed with both dyslexia and ADHD, and has been kicked out of every single school he has attended. At the beginning of the series, he attends Yancy Academy, New York. He has one friend at the school, the satyr-in-hiding, Grover Underwood.

During a field trip to a museum, Grover is taunted by a bully and, in a fit of rage, Percy accidentally summons water in a nearby fountain to knock the bully over. He is called inside the museum to the Ancient Greece exhibit by his pre-algebra teacher, Mrs. Dodds. She turns into the Fury Alecto and attacks him. A moment later, Mr. Brunner, Percy's favorite teacher, throws his pen at Percy, who receives instead a bronze sword. Percy manages to destroy the Fury and returns outside with the sword, which has already shrunk back into a pen.

When Percy questions Mr. Brunner about what just happened, Mr. Brunner denies that there was ever a Mrs. Dodds and suggests that Percy should bring his own writing utensils in the future. When Percy questions his classmates about the same matter, they act as though there was never any Mrs. Dodds. Percy realizes that Grover is lying when he notices that Grover hesitates whenever Percy mentions Mrs. Dodds. Percy is confused, and his "behavioural problems" continue to get worse. After calling one of his teachers an "old sot", a letter is sent home to his mother telling her that Percy would not be invited back to Yancy Academy next year. Percy becomes even more disturbed when he overhears Grover and Mr. Brunner discussing his safety. Finally, as Percy is going home on a bus with Grover, they see three old ladies knitting a giant sock, which Grover seems intensely worried about. Because of this, Percy leaves Grover and takes a taxi to his apartment on his own.

His mother (Sally Jackson) arrives soon afterwards and tells him that they can go to Montauk Beach for the weekend. Percy, looking forward to this, packs his things and leaves. At the beach, Percy wakes up in the middle of the night during a storm, and is shocked to see Grover approaching him as a satyr, and his mother, telling them to leave. Percy is confused, but his mother drives them both away quickly.

After hearing a growl behind them, his mother forces both boys out of the car. However, from the storm above, a bolt of lightning strikes the roof of the car, causing it to crash into a ditch. Percy's mother orders him to take Grover and escape towards Half-Blood Hill and reach the farmhouse. Percy refuses, because he does not want to leave her behind; also, because he cannot carry carry Grover alone. So they both pick up Grover and drag him towards the hill, but a Minotaur appears and starts chasing them. As they set Grover down, the Minotaur charges. Percy dodges both encounters. Then, using a surge of power, he manages to defeat the Minotaur, but not before it dissolves Percy's mother into a shower of gold and sends her to the Underworld. Percy drags Grover to Camp Half-Blood, where Percy passes out on the porch of the Big House.

Percy meets a future friend, Annabeth Chase. He learns that Mr. Brunner is really a centaur named Chiron, the camp's activity director, and that the director of the camp is the Greek god Dionysus. He is introduced to Luke Castellan, the leader of the Hermes cabin. Later, in a game of capture-the-flag, Percy single-handedly defeats Clarisse la Rue, leader of the Ares cabin, along with three others, before he learns that he is the son of Poseidon. Soon after that, he learns that Zeus's lightning bolt has been stolen and embarks on his first and eventually successful quest along with Grover and Annabeth to retrieve it. Along the way, Percy meets Medusa and many other monsters from the old Greek myths. Eventually Percy ends up in the Underworld, ruled by Hades, and figures out that Hades did not steal the lightning bolt; rather, it was Luke Castellan who had stolen it. Kronos, Lord of the Titans, had convinced Luke Castellan to take the bolt and Hades' Helm of Darkness.^[1]

[edit]The Sea of Monsters

Main article: The Sea of Monsters

Thalia's tree, the magical border of Camp Half-Blood, has been poisoned. The only means of ridding the tree of its poison is the Golden Fleece, which is located on the island of Polyphemus, in the Bermuda Triangle.

Clarisse, the daughter of Ares and longtime enemy of Percy, is given the quest to go to the Sea of Monsters to find the Golden Fleece. Percy and Annabeth decide to go as well, not just for the Golden Fleece, but for their friend Grover who is trapped in Polyphemus' cave. Tyson the Cyclops, whom Percy befriended at school that year, joins them on their journey. Tyson is also Poseidon's son and therefore Percy's half-brother.

Entering the Sea of Monsters, they have to get past Scylla and Charybdis. Instead of trying to sail in between the two, Clarisse goes for Charybdis, and Tyson appears to die in Clarisse's ship after it sinks from a blow. Percy and Annabeth journey to many dangerous islands, and Annabeth tells Percy how Thalia died. She also mentions the prophecy and tells Percy that he has a choice to make when he turns sixteen years old. Fighting their way through obstacles, such as the Sirens and Circe's island, Percy and Annabeth join up with Clarisse, Grover, and later Tyson, and escape with the Golden Fleece.

When they return to the mortal world, they send Clarisse on an airplane with the Fleece to camp. Percy, Annabeth, Grover, and Tyson are kidnapped by Luke. In a duel with him, Percy is nearly killed. He is saved by Chiron, who is proven innocent, and his relatives, the Party Ponies. When they return to camp, the Fleece is put on the tree. It not only revives Thalia's tree, but Thalia too, who appears as she looked in Percy's dreams. It is revealed this was Kronos's plan, done so that he would have another chance to manipulate the prophecy which governs the future of Olympus and the Olympians.

At the end, Percy and Annabeth win a chariot race and Annabeth kisses Percy on the cheek.^[2]

[edit]The Titan's Curse

Main article: The Titan's Curse

The story begins with Percy embarking on a rescue mission. It is revealed that Grover has found halfbloods. They arrive at a military school and realize that they are not the only ones who have recognized the two halfbloods. In order to remain inconspicuous, they try to blend in with the crowd. A school dance is taking place, and Percy and Annabeth dance together. The two half-bloods, Bianca and Nico, are discreetly taken away by the school principal, and Percy, going against his better judgement, follows them, instead of consulting Grover, Thalia, and Annabeth. Percy is almost killed by the principal, who is really a Manticore, but Annabeth saves them. Artemis's hunters also come to the rescue, but not before they can prevent Annabeth from plummeting to her assumed death over a cliffside with the manticore. Artemis counsels Percy, telling him that it is unlikely Annabeth survived the fall. She also offers Bianca the chance to become one of her Hunters, which would give her immortality and eternal girlhood. She agrees, believing that her brother, Nico, will be safe with Percy. At Camp, Percy becomes angry with Thalia for calling him "Seaweed Brain", Annabeth's pet name for him. In is anger, he summons water which splashes on her and she pricks him with static electricity. Percy summons the entire creek and builds it up but, when he sees the Oracle walking towards them he lets go.

When Percy cannot go on a quest on Chiron's orders, he runs away on his favorite pegasus, Blackjack. He is found and accepted relucantly, by the Hunters. While at Hoover Dam, Percy meets a mortal girl named Rachel Elizabeth Dare who can see through the Mist. She helps him escape from skeletal warriors who are trying to attack Percy and his friends.

While warning them about the junkyard of the gods, Aphrodite, goddess of love, tells Percy there is a romantic future waiting for him with Annabeth. Shortly after a battle with Atlas, Blackjack, Percy's pegasus, comes with his friends, and they fly to Olympus. Upon entering Olympus, the gods try to decide whether or not to kill Thalia, Percy, and Bessie (the ophiotaurus), as they may hold the meand to destroy Olympus, according to the Great Prophecy. Thalia becomes one of Artemis' hunters, eliminating her as a potential recipient of the Great Prophecy as Artemis' hunters do not age. The gods decide to leave Percy alive and keep the Ophiotaurus in safety at the throne room. Afterwards, a feast is held in honor of the heroes and Athena tells Percy that she disapproves of his friendship with her daughter. At camp, Percy tells Nico that his sister has died. From then on, Nico loathes Percy, blaming him for his sister's death. Percy then holds the figurine of the god that Bianca gave him at the junkyard. Suddenly, he realizes who Nico's father is: Hades, lord of the dead.^[3]

[edit]The Battle of the Labyrinth

Main article: The Battle of the Labyrinth

In book four, a door to the Labyrinth of Daedalus is discovered in the woods of Camp Half-Bood. Camp Half-Blood is in danger of being invaded by Kronos' army by means of the Labyrinth. Chiron sends Annabeth along with Percy, Grover, and Tyson into the Labyrinth on a quest to find Daedalus. In this, they hope to use his knowledge to help thwart any attacks that are carried out using the giant underground maze. They eventually find Daedalus, who has made himself a new body, and has disguised himself as the swordplay counselor. Hera opens a door to Mt. Orthys (Mt. Tamalpais in California), where the Titans are staying until Kronos gains a new body and is able to invade the camp. Annabeth gives Percy her magic invisibility hat and he goes up to investigate. There, he sees a golden coffin with KRONOS: LORD OF TIME written on the top. He flips the top off of the coffin and is stunned to find that it contains the body of his old enemy, Luke Castellan. There is one small hole in his body right where his heart was, because Kronos is reforming in Luke's body. Ethan Nakamura, a son of Nemesis, is the last demigod to join the Titan lord's cause. When he pledges to renounce the gods and join the Titan's army, the last piece of Kronos is risen from Tartarus. Luke's body rises out of the coffin, the hole healed, and his eyes solid gold. There is a battle, as Kronos' army attacks Camp Half-Blood through the Labyrinth. Many are injured and some are left dead. Daedalus shows up to help along with his giant pet hellhound,Mrs. O'Leary. Daedalus has escaped death for centuries, but gives himself over to Nico di Angelo, a son of Hades, so he can accept his punishment in the Underworld and also so he can see his son Icarus, who was accidentally killed by one of his own inventions and his nephew Perdix, whom he had regrettably killed out of rage. Percy inherits Mrs. O'Leary, who seems to prefer him to any other demigod. Percy and Annabeth's relationship starts to take on a new edge to it. Annabeth saves Percy several times and kisses him once because she thinks he is going to die. She also makes a big scene in front of all the campers when she realized that Percy was alive.^[4]

[edit]The Last Olympian

Main article: The Last Olympian

In the beginning of book five, Percy and Beckendorf, son of Hephaestus, are sent on a quest to blow up Luke's demon cruise ship, the Princess Andromeda. However, Kronos knows of the plan, and captures Beckendorf even as Percy attempts to create a diversion. Beckendorf manages to detonate the Greek Fire charges as Percy breaks through Kronos' forces and dives off the ship, heading for his father's domain. Percy feels guilty about leaving Beckendorf, although Nico says he saw him in the Elysium Fields, and was told to tell Percy not to blame himself. Percy and Nico, the son of Hades, sneak out of camp, and meet Hestia, who shows Percy part of Luke's past, after they meet Luke's mother, who tried to become the oracle, and was thus driven insane by a curse of Hades's working. Luke has bathed in the River Styx to become invulnerable, allowing him to survive the presence of the Titan Lord in his mortal body.

A war between the Titans and Olympians ensues, one that has been in the making for much of the series. Through the information they find from Hestia and Luke's mother, Percy learns how to gain the invulnerability Luke has. He travels with Nico to the Underworld, where he bathes in the River Styx, thus becoming invulnerable.

As he returns to the surface, a silent Manhattan is assaulted by several demon armies. Percy leads forty demigods in a defense effort, activating the many statues Daedalus has planted as statues throughout Manhattan for more manpower. He is also joined by the Hunters of Artemis and many nature spirits under Grover's direction. Even with these forces, Percy's forces cannot hold back the tide of monsters, and is slowly forced backwards to the Empire State Building.

In the end of the book, Luke is revealed to be as invulnerable as Percy himself, and Achilles before him. As a result, Percy gives Annabeth's cursed knife to him, allowing him to reap his own soul by stabbing his own weak point.

As Luke's life seeps away, Annabeth admits she never loved Luke except as a brother. She and Percy finally cement their relationship, building, for the first time, something permanent she could trust. They kiss in the dining pavilion after Annabeth says, "I am never going to make things easy for you, Seaweed Brain. Get used to it." The other campers catch them in the act and playfully toss them into the canoe lake, where Percy creates an air bubble, and then they have what Percy describes as "the best underwater kiss ever".^[5]

[edit]The Lost Hero

Main article: The Lost Hero

Percy Jackson is mentioned regularly throughout the story. In the beginning of the story, he is revealed to have disappeared three days before the books begins, leaving Annabeth and the rest of the camp worried. Annabeth goes on a search for him but comes back unsuccessful, with no idea to where he might be. At the end of the book, it is revealed that Juno/Hera sent Percy to the Roman Camp Half Blood. Just as Jason was sent to Camp Half-Blood, Percy Jackson was sent to the Roman camp as a form of exchanging leaders, in order to make the two camps aware of each other, so they could try to unite. However, there is a possibility that Percy may not remember who he is or who his friends are. Jason and Annabeth realize this and discover that there might be a chance that Percy will not make it out alive, for Roman demigods are much more "warlike" than their Greek counterparts, and if not approved to be worthy, they are made the meals for wolves at the Roman camp, in The Bay Area, San Francisco. Annabeth then makes a plan to find the Roman Camp and bring Percy with them on their trip to Greece to defeat Gaea. Jason, Son of Zeus, and his two friends Piper, Daughter of Aphrodite, and Leo, Son of Hephaestus, go on a dangerous quest to save Hera, find the Roman Camp Half-Blood, and possibly save the missing camper, Percy Jackson.

]Film

Logan Lerman as Percy inPercy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Percy was played by Logan Lerman in Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief, a film adaptation of the first book in the series, The Lightning Thief. In the film however, all the characters have been "aged up" to be seventeen as of the first book, instead of twelve, moving the film from the "young readers/boys fiction" area of the book to the "teenage viewers" target group of the film.But still many young viewers got to watch the film with the disappointment of it's age change.

[edit]Powers/abilities

Percy, like most demigods, has these disabilities and traits:

ADHD, which actually is heightened alertness that allows demigods to keep track of multiple things simultaneously during combat. In the case of Percy, he can even extrapolate where his enemies will strike simply based on how their muscles tense.
Dyslexia, since his brain is hard-wired for reading Ancient Greek instead of modern languages.
Percy has clairvoyant dreams, allow him to see events in distant locations in out-of-body experiences. This is a general feature of demigods, but becomes even more intense during times of strife and when pivotal events are in motion. Percy has an inherent knack for seeing otherwise hidden things thanks to his unpredictable, changeable nature, inherited from his father, Poseidon.

In The Lightning Thief, Percy is given a enchanted sword called Anaklusmos (Riptide). It is made of celestial bronze, a fictional metal which will injure immortals and monsters, but not mortals. Many demigods use celestial bronze weapons, though Anaklusmos is shown to be a far more powerful weapon against monsters than most other blades of its kind. In its dormant form, it appears as a ballpoint pen, though in a dream, Percy sees it in the form of a hairpin. Percy is unable to lose it as it will always return to his pocket soon after being dropped.

Children of the "big three" (Zeus, Poseidon, or Hades) are far more powerful than demigods of the other Greek gods and goddesses. Hence, Percy has a wide range of abilities.

Percy is a naturally talented swordsman, often able to hold his own against larger, stronger, and more experienced opponents, even the god of war, Ares.
Percy possesses incredible physical strength. He tore a horn off the belt of the Minotaur, and was able to bear the weight of the sky for some time, the curse of Atlas.
Percy has a psychic connection with his friend Grover, called an empathy link. According to Grover, if either of them die, the other might as well.
In The Last Olympian, Percy bathes in the River Styx (like Achilles), making him nearly invulnerable except in one weak point, analogous to Achilles' heel (the small of his back, directly opposite the navel) and also granting him highly increased strength, speed, and endurance.

[edit]Aquatic/hydrokinetic abilities

Percy has numerous powers specifically connected to the domains of Poseidon: seas, horses, sea creatures, storms and earthquakes. His water-related abilities tend to be stronger in sea water than in fresh water. Like most other demigods, using his abilities tires him in proportion to the intensity and duration whatever he does.

Upon contact with water (or later, with his abilities more developed, near water), Percy gains a disproportionate amount of strength, combat skill, and speed. This effect wears off soon after leaving the water.
Percy can control large volumes of water with great force (hydrokinesis). For example, he can redirect rivers, create currents to push boats or himself, or even increase surface tension to the point where it is firm enough to stand upon. On a smaller scale, he can also hold back the tide and redirect waves, apparently relying on pressurization.
In the end of the first series, he pulls air bubbles together to form one larger one for Annabeth and himself.
Percy can breathe underwater (excluding the River Styx's waters). He is unharmed by water pressure of any amount, or by falling from great height into water.
When Percy is underwater, he stays dry unless he consciously forces himself to become wet. When Percy touches objects underwater, they also become dry.
Percy can create seawater with little effort with things that used to be in the sea (such as petrified seashells, as in the book The Battle of the Labyrinth). With effort, he can also do this without any derivatives.
Percy can communicate telepathically with marine life, horses, horse related creatures (including mythical horses, such as pegasi), most of whom also obey him and treat him with respect. They tend to treat him with some deference and work to accommodate him; a notable exception are the flesh-eating horses in The Battle of the Labyrinth.
While at sea, Percy has perfect bearings on his exact coordinates.
Percy can control all parts of boats telekinetically, especially sails.
Percy can sense objects if they are underwater.
Percy can communicate with children of Poseidon, such as the Cyclopes, underwater.
Percy is very resistant to burning, and is able to survive for a time while immersed in magma because of the power of the ocean inside of him.
Percy can summon water from bodies of water that are vast hundred of miles away from him. However, doing this nearly killed him the one time he tried in Mt. St. Helens.
Percy can summon hurricanes, as he did in The Last Olympian, since his father is the god of the sea and storms, though he cannot sustain such tremendous force for very long.
Percy can release the oxygen diffused in water and force the surrounding water to recede, making an air bubble so his friends with non-hydrokinetic abilities can breathe.
Percy can control ocean currents to propel him at great force underwater, or even up into the air, as he does in his duel with Ares.
Percy can cause water to form stronger-than-normal hydrogen bonds on the molecular level to form shields strong enough to deflect shards of glass.
Percy has an accelerated healing factor when standing or immersed in water, quickly healing any wounds and curing him of most forms ofpoison.
Percy can summon earthquakes as he does at Mount St. Helen's in The Battle of the Labyrinth, since his father is the god of earthquakes.

[edit]Love Interests

Calypso: Percy, stranded on the island of Ogygia after being badly burned, he is then nursed back to health by Calypso. She appears to be around sixteen with almond eyes and caramel hair; Percy thinks she is more beautiful than Aphrodite (goddess of love). Percy enjoys her company and admires her beauty and grace. When leaving the island, he says she will always be his biggest "what if". She extends him an offer to stay, which would make him immortal, saving him from the prophecy predicting his death when he turns sixteen. However, his friends and family need his help and he chooses to leave. Before he goes she kisses him on the forehead and gives him a magic raft to take him to Camp Half-Blood. In the end of The Battle of the Labyrinth, he plants a sprig of moonlace in Manhattan, fulfilling his promise to her to plant a garden at his home. In The Last Olympian, he demands that Calypso should be excused and released; whether or not the gods lived up to this promise is not revealed.
Rachel Elizabeth Dare: Even though Percy is not known to love Rachel, it is known that she likes him. Percy was unsure about having a crush on Rachel and never truly admits it. His feelings were mixed mainly because of his feelings towards Annabeth. In time, his growing feelings for Annabeth stopped him from ever developing a relationship with Rachel. In The Last Olympian, Rachel kisses Percy in Paul'sPrius right before he sets off to the Princess Andromeda, where it was very likely he could have died. On Olympus, Rachel tells Percy that he was just a distraction for her. She tells him that they can never be together because she took on the spirit of the oracle, restricting her from dating. Percy thinks of this as Rachel "dumping" him but takes it very lightly and says he intends to continue to be friends with her. Also she expresses that the only reason why she showed an interest in him at all was because Percy was the one that introduced the mythological world to her.
Annabeth Chase: Annabeth is Percy's primary love interest throughout the series,in each book there are hints of complicated romantic tension, which she attributes to the conflict between their god-parents over the naming of Athens (Both Poseidon and Athena wanted the city named after them, but the people chose Athena as their deity instead). Percy and Annabeth first meet in The Lightning Thief when Percy wakes up after passing out to see Annabeth, whom he described as "pretty", spoon-feeding him nectar and ambrosia, the food of the gods. Percy is confused and irritated by Annabeth's behavior in the beginning of The Lightning Thief, but they develop a solid friendship at the end of the novel from all they had experienced together. In "The Sea of Monsters", Annabeth kisses him once on the cheek after winning the chariot race. In The Titan's Curse, Percy and Annabeth share a slow dance while in the school tring to save Bianca and Nico di Angelo. They are interrupted in the middle of the song when Percy loses sight if Bianca and Nico. At the end of the book, at a party, Percy tell Annabeth he owes her a dance and they dance again. Also, Percy meets Aphrodite, who tells him that he will have a tragic love life; incidentally, Percy meets Rachel a little while after. At the end of the book, he nearly has a heart attack, thinking Annabeth was about to join the Hunters of Artemis. In The Battle of the Labyrinth, Annabeth kisses Percy before he goes to fight thetelekhines for good luck. She also hugs him after his return from Calypso's island, making a scene in front of the other campers. In The Last Olympian, Percy goes to the River Styx to bathe, he is supposed to envision the one thing that keeps him tied to the mortal world. He thinks of Annabeth pulling him out of the water at the canoe lake. When Kronos is spotted during the battle in The Last Olympian, Percy orders a retreat, but Annabeth stays behind to help him cover the Apollo cabin's retreat, taking a knife that would have struck his Achilles' heel. Near the end of the first series, when Luke is dying, he asks Annabeth if she ever loved him, to which she replies that she only loved Luke as a brother, looking up to Percy, extremely glad he had survived the battle. At the end of the novel, Annabeth kisses Percy after giving him a cake for his birthday, which he had forgotten in the midst of the battle. Soon after, Clarisse, the Stoll brothers, and various other eavesdropping campers stage an ambush and drop the two into the canoe lake, cheering less than twelve hours after skirting Western civilization's doom. Percy uses his hydrokinetic powers to create an air bubble around himself and Annabeth so they can stay submerged and share yet another kiss. He describes it as "pretty much the best underwater kiss of all time", indicating his intentions at a long-term relationship. In The Lost Hero, Percy and Annabeth are dating. Since Percy has been missing for several days, Annabeth is understandably short on temper. She gets into a bad mood every time someone mentions Percy. She mentions that he kissed her good night the night before he disappeared from his cabin. She is morose over the fact that he likely cannot remember who he is, let alone her.

[edit]Relationship with Olympians

Poseidon: Percy is on good terms with Poseidon primarily because he is his son and even gives him a birthday present. At the end ofThe Battle of the Labyrinth, Poseidon states that Percy is his favorite son. He even forgives Percy for sitting on his throne in The Last Olympian and states that not even Hercules is as good a hero as Percy.
Zeus: Zeus, the king of the Gods, has mixed feelings for Percy. He is upset over Percy's birth because it violates the pact that he, Poseidon, and Hades made after World War Two to not sire any more children, but is pleased when Percy returns his Master Bolt to him in The Lightning Thief and admits a certain respect for Percy accomplishing this. During the winter solstice in The Titan's Curse, Zeus votes to let Percy live, but this may have been tied to the fate of his own daughter, Thalia, as well. However, Thalia had agreed to become one of Artemis' Huntresses before this, so it is possible that this may not have mattered. In spite of all of this, Zeus tells Percy that if he ever finds him in his realm (the sky), he will strike him down. After Percy fights in the battle at the end of The Last Olympian, Zeus offers Percy godhood, and therefore immortality, for saving Olympus from the Titans.
Hades: Hades, the lord of the underworld, has mixed feelings about Percy. Percy previously accuses him of stealing Zeus' Master Bolt when it was in fact Luke who stole it. Later however, he returns to Hades his Helm of Darkness and clears his name of all charges pressed against him. In The Last Olympian, Hades is shown assisting Percy during the war, even talking with his son, Nico, who also has a decent relationship with Percy, afterward. When mentioned by Percy during his decision of rejecting immortality, Hades is shown casually addressing him, with none of the malice that he normally shows throughout the series.
Ares: The god of war despises Percy. He started off thinking to manipulate Percy into unknowingly starting a war of the gods in The Lightning Thief, but held a grudge against Percy after Percy wounded him in their battle, due to the insult to Ares' pride. It is dangerous for Percy that they are on bad terms because Ares, being the god of war, thinks highly of revenge and is quite violent. Ares puts a curse on Percy, saying that when he needs his sword the most, it will fail him. He only goes along with granting Percy godhood because he can fight him as many times as he wants and Percy will just keep coming back.
Athena: The goddess of wisdom, war, strategy, industry, justice and skill disapproves of Percy's "friendship" with her daughter Annabethbecause of the historical rivalry between herself and Poseidon and the unpredictable, uncontrollable element Percy represents, but Percy has not done anything against her directly. In The Titan's Curse, she may have helped to guide him at the Hoover Dam. However, in the same book, she also voted that he be destroyed. In The Last Olympian, Athena is on good terms with Percy, with the exception of his relationship with Annabeth.
Hera: the goddess of women, marriage and family, neither likes nor dislikes Percy. Near the end of The Battle of the Labyrinth he and Annabeth both disagree with her views of families having to be perfect, siding with Hephaestus on the matter instead, even though Hera helped them numerous times in the book. Percy also insults her by mentioning Thalia, one of Zeus' children not borne by her, whom Hera historically despises, along with Hercules. She swears to make Annabeth regret her decision, much like Ares did to Percy, but it is not directly stated whether she included Percy in this statement. In "The Lost Hero", Hera sent Percy to the Roman version of Camp Half Blood, making him lose his memory.
Dionysus ("Mr. D"): Percy primarily has been on Mr. D's bad side from the very second they met. Percy does not like Dionysus very much either, for he constantly antagonizes Percy (and all other demigods, for that matter except his twin sons) by never calling him by his real name (preferring to call him "Peter Johnson" or "Perry Johansson"), but he saves Percy's life in The Titan's Curse. One of the other reasons he may dislike half-bloods is because of the way they treat mortals; he mentions Theseus and Ariadne, Jason and Medea, and alludes to Hercules and Zoё Nightshade in The Titan's Curse, mentioning how the former in all three cases used and later abandoned the latter. However, at the end of the Battle of the Labyrinth, their relationship comes to better terms after one of Dionysus' sons dies in the final battle. Later, he calls Percy by his real name, although he later denies this. They are on much better terms by the end of The Battle of the Labyrinth. Although Dionysus denies this, he favors Percy with his judgment, help, and advice, more than any other god in the series.
Demeter: Percy is on Demeter's bad side for his lack of respect towards her, even though Demeter had unkindly criticized Percy and Nico's personalities, body images, and postures and the fact that she did nothing to keep Typhon at bay from destroying Olympus. Near the end of the war, however, she had participated in the fight by turning an entire group of Kronos' minions Percy was fighting into a field of wheat along with Hades (who was convinced by Nico to help his godly family despite he being a little mistreated by them), andPersephone who turned the dracnaes spears into sunflowers.
Hephaestus:He is grateful to Percy for having discovered who was using his forge under Mt. St. Helens, even though he causes an eruption that destroyed the forge and awakened Typhon (who had been imprisoned under it), but also dispersed and/or killed the users. At the end of the 5th book, Hephaestus said that Percy had done "a pretty bang up job, mostly." This does not stop Hephaestus though from calling Percy a "young upstart" in The Lost Hero, when discussing how his importance in the second Titan war embarrassed the gods.
Artemis: Percy is on Artemis' good side since he helped find and save her in The Titan's Curse. She even declared him a hero in the halls of Olympus itself and started calling him a man rather than a boy after he helped her defeat Atlas. His respect for Zoë Nightshade, and his deep loyalty, regardless of gender, has also improved her view of him.
Hermes: Percy is on good terms with Hermes, who convinced him to go on a quest in The Sea of Monsters and gave him magic items to assist him in his journey. He also explained the relationship between gods and heroes to him. Their relationship took a turn for the worse after realizing that Percy could not save Luke and Hermes grew bitter to all heroes. He is angered by Percy in the "Last Olympian", yet later he finds out that he is truly angered with Annabeth for not having made the choice of running away from all of their problems in the year following "The Battle of the Labirynth" But after the war, their relationship was mended upon Percy's counseling and sympathy of Luke's situation and prophecy as well as how powerless Hermes was.
Aphrodite: Aphrodite likes Percy and the situation his "friendship" with Annabeth creates. She expressed an interest in their relationship, meaning that she plans to meddle with it in some way. Percy is understandably ambivalent towards this because Aphrodite sees it easily becoming a romantic tragedy—and likes the idea. She also stops from the God Ares from crushing him to pieces by showing the special interest in him and Annabeth. She also said she would make Percy's love life hard, just because she likes him. The way she meddled with it was by making Percy meet Rachel and causing him to be confused about Annabeth. In The Lost Hero, Aphrodite expresses support for Hera's approach - which includes Percy's disappearance (and suspected memory loss) and thus forced separation from Annabeth. There is, of course, the chance he might meet someone else while without memory of Annabeth.
Apollo: Apollo treats Percy like a younger cousin (which he is). The sun god helped Percy twice in The Titan's Curse so that they could save Artemis, his sister. Being the god of prophecy, he also told Percy how important dreams could be.
Hestia: Percy and Hestia have a good relationship. In The Last Olympian, Percy entrusts her with Pandora's pithos that contains the spirit of hope, Elpis, saying that "hope is best kept by the hearth". She also helps him and shows him the stories of Luke, like that of his childhood and relationships with this family because she says that he needs to 'know about his enemy' to be able to confront him and make his final decision. He also call her the "Last Olympian", and the most important of all the Gods because she is the one that always stays behind when all the other Gods are gone.
Persephone: Persephone and Percy meet in the Underworld, where Persephone says she likes Percy because he is "Brave". You would often see, during a conversation between Hades and Percy, that Persephone saves Percy several times from Hades wrath.
