## Appearance

Percy has "*Mediterranean*" complexion. He has disheveled, jet black hair swept to one side as “*if he just gotten a walk to the beach*” and sea-green eyes, which he inherited from his father and grandmother. He also has a sarcastic, troublemaker smile. Percy gets his handsome looks from his father, a reason why Medusa wanted to preserve a statue of him. He doesn't seem to know it or may simply refuse to acknowledge it, but a great number of girls find him extremely attractive.

At the beginning of the *Percy Jackson* series, Percy was average in athletics but later from his training, becomes very fit, muscular, and lean. He obtained a gray streak of hair in *The Titan's Curse* from holding the sky but has since lost it.

## Personality

According to Kronos, Percy inherited Poseidon's "too changeable, unpredictable" nature. Percy is a brave, spirited natural leader. Many people tell him he is brave, such as friends, family, strangers, and even gods. He has the same "brooding" look as his father that always branded him a rebel and his mother has a rebellious streak just like him. Percy is characterized by his sarcastic, smart sense of humor and laid-back demeanor. His girlfriend Annabeth mentions that he is technically smart, but seems to act dumb.

Percy is somewhat short-tempered and thus has trouble controlling his anger, such as when he sees bullying. He can be derisively sarcastic and moody, especially when someone tries to manipulate him or forces him to obey. Like many heroes, Percy is very reckless and tends to do or blurt out things before thinking, causing him to get into a lot of trouble. He feels responsible for everyone and anything which goes wrong.

According to Annabeth, Percy is obtuse, meaning he doesn't always see the obvious even when it is right in front of him, such as people's feelings and what they are trying to say indirectly. He has romantic feelings for Annabeth over the course of the series, but he finally confirms them in *The Last Olympian*. Despite this he is perceptive when he needs to be when the situation demands it.

Although he has many friends in Camp Half-Blood, Percy is considered a troublemaker in school with a track record of expulsions, like most demigods. His dyslexia makes learning and reading difficult and his ADHD makes it hard for him to be attentive or to sit still in class. He has never been one of the "cool" kids in class because he hangs out with supposedly "un-cool" people, such as his best friend Grover Underwood or his half-brother Tyson. Possibly because of his bad history in school, Percy feels a strong level of affection and attachment to Camp Half-Blood.

### Fatal Flaw

According to Athena, Percy's fatal flaw is excessive personal loyalty: he would risk the world and even his own life to save his friends and family. He sometimes saves strangers or enemies simply because he empathizes with them. When Percy protests that personal loyalty isn't all that bad, Athena says "The most dangerous flaws are good in moderation" The goddess was obviously displeased that her own daughter is an object of that loyalty. Kronos previously exploited this trait in *The Lightning Thief* (Sally Jackson), *The Sea of Monsters* (Grover), and *The Titan's Curse* (Annabeth Chase).

### Fears

Percy is afraid of the Great Prophecy. When Phobos makes Percy see his worst fear in *The Demigod Files* story, Percy saw that his mistake regarding Olympus would set the camp in flames with his friends inside, which could be interpreted as losing those close to him.

As a son of Poseidon, Percy is claustrophobic. This is because he is used to open, free and wild places like the sea. However, his claustrophobia don't seem to bother him in The Battle of the Labyrinth, so it could simply be that he simply becomes restless when confined, but is still functional and his previous phobia now only acts as a mild annoyance.

## Power

As a son of Poseidon, Percy is an extremely powerful individual and one of the most powerful demigod in the *Percy Jackson & The Olympians* series. The only other demigods whose powers rival his are Thalia Grace and Nico Di Angelo. He has fought and defeated many monsters probably more than any other demigod in the series, including other demigods, gods, and titans. On more than one occasion, Percy has contributed to the salvation of Olympus and the world as a whole. Poseidon believes that Percy has risen above every hero, even Hercules. Nico later states that Percy is the most powerful demigod he has ever met.

## Main Skills and Equipment

**Demigod Physiology**: Like all demigods, Percy has superhuman physical attributes stronger than the average human. As a child of Poseidon, one of the Big Three, Percy's abilities surpass those of the average demigod.

* **Atmokinesis (*limited*)**: Percy has limited control over weather. He can summon storms, such as miniature hurricanes. With his Curse of Achilles, his hurricanes were powerful enough to extinguish the fires on Hyperion's body and leave the powerful Titan vulnerable to attack. However, Percy's control is limited and his power drains him over time.
	+ **Hydrokinesis**: Percy can control great volumes of water to a very high degree, lifting 10,000 gallons of water in *The Demigod Files*. He can dry himself and items (such as a lighter) underwater as long as he holds onto it, extract water from petrified seashells, create oxygen bubbles underwater for people who cannot breathe underwater, propel himself through water, summon waves that can easily sink ships, as well as control water in order to make it explode or use it to grab something. Percy's skill allowed him to temporary contend with Ares. The River Styx is the only river he cannot control.
		- **Water Solidification**: Percy can harden water into an almost solid shape by increasing the surface tension of the water. He can use this power to walk on water and create a strong water shield.
		- **Hydrogenesis**: Percy can create water from his own power by summoning the "force of the ocean" inside of him as long as he concentrates hard enough, though it takes much of his energy for him to do so. He learned this ability from a Naiad. At Mount Saint Helens, he created water to cause a volcanic eruption, which was powerful enough to cause half a million people to evacuate and cause ash to fall as far as Lake Tahoe and Vancouver. He later used this skill while creating his own personal hurricanes in the Battle of Manhattan.
		- **Water Empowerment**: When in contact with or in the presence of water, Percy gains a disproportionate amount of superhuman clarity, strength, speed, agility, and endurance. While in this state, he was strong enough to snap Clarisse's electric spear "like a twig", effortlessly defeated four children of Ares (including Clarisse) in rapid succession with ease, and shear off a portion of Luke's shield. However, this only lasts for a limited amount of time unless he is completely submerged in water.
		- **Toxikinesis (*limited*)**: Percy can control and manipulate poisons, but out of fear in using this power, he rarely to never uses it.
		- **Cryokinesis (*limited*)**: Percy can use cryokinesis to a small degree. He can manipulate frozen or icy water around him, as shown during his interrupted fight with Thalia in *The Titan's Curse*.
		- **Vitakinesis (*limited*)**: Percy can heal most wounds and cure most poisons when in contact with water, the amount of water and time needed for the healing being proportionate to the severity of the wound.
		- **Water Immunity**: If he falls from great heights into water, Percy will be unaffected by any amount of water pressure. He doesn't get wet if submerged in water unless he wants to. Additionally, Percy can breathe underwater for unlimited amounts of time and see in the darkness underwater. He is only unable to breathe in the River Styx.
		- **Heat Immunity (*limited*)**: Percy has a far higher than normal resistance to heat and burns, similar to that of a Cyclops. In The Lightning Thief, he managed not to drop his sword when Alecto wrapped her fiery whip around his wrist. In *The Battle of the Labyrinth*, he was able to survive being engulfed by lava thrown by the telekhines (though it began to get more painful the longer he was in contact with it) and not being killed by the super-heated steam from the Mount Saint Helens' eruption.
		- **Watercraft Manipulation**: Percy possesses an intimate awareness of any ship he is on (sailing ships, canoes, motorboats, possibly submarines) and can telekinetically operate one.
			* **Perfect Bearings**: Percy always know his exact nautical coordinates wherever he is, which allow him to easily navigate his way at sea.
	+ **Aerokinesis (*limited*)**: Percy has limited control over the wind. He can summon strong winds, which allow him to create miniature hurricanes.
	+ **Electrokinesis (*limited*)**: Percy used this skill unintentionally on one occasion while creating his own miniature hurricane. Sparks of lightning appeared as his storm increased in power. His control of this ability, however, is far less than that of a child of Zeus.
* **Geokinesis (*limited*)**: Percy has limited control over the earth. He can generate earthquakes and consequently cause volcanic eruptions, but his control of this technique is less than that of a child of Hades.
* **Marine Communication**: Percy has divine authority over his father's subjects. He can talk (normally and telepathically) to equines and sea creatures who mainly treat him with deference and lordly respect. He can also speak to other children of Poseidon underwater (seen in *The Sea of Monsters*, in a conversation with Tyson).
	+ **Zoolingualism (limited to Equestrians and Marine Life)**: Percy can understand and talk to marine animals, equines and similar creatures, who mainly treat him with deference and lordly respect.
* **Dreams**: Like most demigods, Percy had dreams that showed him events occurring in the past, present, and future. However, due to his father's unpredictable nature and raw power, Percy's dreams are a lot more potent than those of other demigods. He has managed to view the dealings of fellow demigods like Luke and Hercules; gods such as Hades; and ancient beings like Kronos himself, something Luke proclaimed was impossible.
* **Superhuman Strength**: Being a demigod son of one of the Big Three, Percy is considerably stronger than a regular mortal and demigod. He can strangle a snake when he was a toddler, rip out the Minotaur's horn, topple a seemingly insurmountably strong Polyphemus, snap Clarisse's second electric spear "like a twig", knock out demigods with one hit, and force the tip of Porphyrion's spear into the ground while the giant was running, causing the giant's own momentum to flip himself over. He had even held on a ledge, while supporting Annabeth's and his own weight with just his fingers, without much discomfort.
* **Superhuman Durability**: Being a demigod son of one of the Big Three, Percy is more durable than regular humans and fellow demigods. He shook off a hard kick in the chest from Ares, speedily recovered from a dodgeball thrown by a Laistrygonian Giant, brushed off from a whack in the chest by a giant, shook off hard hits from the Titan Atlas, and withstood a hard blow from Kronos without the Curse of Achilles.
* **Superhuman Reflexes**: Being a demigod son of one of the Big Three, Percy's reflexes are faster than a regular human. He was able to cut a volley of arrows in half in *The Sea of Monsters* and deflect a bullet that can travel 1,700 miles per hour in *The Titan's Curse*, even though he could barely see the bullet.
* **Superhuman Agility**: Being a demigod son of one of the Big Three, Percy is more agile than a regular mortal. He was able to leap on the huge Minotaur neck, dodge several slashes from Ares, and climb up to Anteaus' head in a matter of seconds.
* **ADHD**: Percy's supernatural alertness and keen senses that keep him ready for, and alive, in battle. It also lets him analyze his opponents fighting style as well as pick up minor details about an opponent, such as where their muscles tense so he can tell which direction they will attack from.
* **Dyslexia**: Percy's brain is "hard-wired" for reading divine Ancient Greek instead of mortal languages.

**Riptide**: Also known as **Anaklusmos**, Percy's signature weapon which takes the shape of a Celestial bronze sword. It is usually kept as a ballpoint pen when not in use and will always return to the user's pocket. When uncapped, it becomes a 3 foot tall double-edged sword and causes the fear of most monsters around it. When combined with Percy's hydrokinetic powers and Curse of Achilles, Riptide became an "arc of pure destruction." It was given to Percy by Chiron to fight monsters. It used to be the weapon of Hercules, who got it from Zoë Nightshade.

**Curse of Achilles**: After bathing in the River Styx, Percy was given supernaturally superior speed, strength and invulnerability except for his vital spot opposite of the navel. With the Curse of Achilles, his combat skills are enhanced to the point where he can single-handedly tear through entire armies, gods like Hades and Titans like Hyperion (albeit he had some help in defeating Hyperion). He held his own against Kronos for a rather long period of time, though the Titan Lord was only on a fraction of his full power.

**Empathy Link**: Percy has a psychic connection with Grover. This connection allow them to talk each other in dreams (as seen in The Sea of Monsters) and tell when they are close by, which was why Percy was able to summon Grover to his side in The Titan's Curse. If one dies, the other might die as well. However, they may just go into a vegetative state.

**Master Swordsman Specialist**: Percy is a naturally talented swordsman. His skills continues to grow as time passes, capable of holding his own against and defeating larger, more experienced, and more powerful opponents, including several monsters and Ares, although he had underestimated Percy. In *The Lightning Thief*, he was able to disarm Luke, the most skilled swordman at Camp Half Blood for the last three hundred years, in a swordsmanship class with a complex maneuver he just learnt. In *The Sea of Monsters*, even when Percy had only trained for a year at the time, he was already regarded by other campers to be better than any other camper in Camp Half-Blood at swordplay in the last 100 years, with many comparing him to Luke. At this point, Percy sparred against entire cabins at a time, and rather easily beat the guys from the Apollo Cabin. Despite being out of practice when he fought Luke, Percy was briefly able to fight him off, but was overpowered rather easily. He repeatedly injured the giant cyclops Polyphemus until he was laying on his back. In *The Battle of the Labyrinth*, Percy was skilled enough to defeat Ethan Nakamura and beat a recently awakened Kronos without the Curse of Achilles.

**Keen Intellect**: Although Annabeth makes most of the plans when they are together, Percy is quite intelligent in his own right. He skillfully capitalizes on his surroundings and his opponent's weaknesses when he cannot overwhelm them directly. This has been shown numerous times, such as when he tricked Procrustes into his own technique and Ares into walking into a pressurized tide in *The Lightning Thief*, when he tricked Luke into revealing the fact that Chiron was framed for the poisoning, when he choked the Nemean Lion on space food so that Zoë and Bianca could shoot the inside of its mouth or when he tricked Nereus into jumping into the water where Percy could overpower him in *The Titan Curse*, and when he tricked Antaeus into jumping into chain (depriving him of his mother's rejuvenating touch) in *The Battle of the Labyrinth*.

**Stygian Ice Whistle**: A special dog whistle made of Stygian ice cooled in the River Styx. It was given to Percy by Quintus to summon Mrs. O'Leary and was shattered after it was once blown. Percy used the whistle when his friends were having trouble fighting an army of monsters in *The Battle of the Labyrinth*.
