Perseus "Percy" Jackson is the son of Poseidon the sea god and the mortal Sally Jackson. He is the protagonist and narrator of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. Being a child of one of the "Big Three" (Zeus, Hades, Poseidon), Percy is the child of the prophecy of the Oracle, which foretells 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 saving of Olympus. However, Percy is not the hero. He has hydrokinetic powers that develop throughout the story, becoming strong enough for him to summon a small hurricane in the Last Olympian. Simply being in water can also heal and energize him, water pressure has no effect on him, and he can see underwater at any depth. In The Battle of The Labyrinth, he gets a pet Hellhound named Mrs. O'Leary. He can also communicate with equestrian animals such as Pegasus and Hippocampi, since his father is the god who created horses. He has a sword called Anaklusmos (Riptide) that was a gift from his father Poseidon, delivered to him by Chiron. It can transform into looking like ballpoint pen when capped. It is made of celestial bronze and he can never lose it; it will always return to his pocket. He was technically only selected to go on two of the four quests in the series, the first being the retrieval of Zeus' master thunderbolt. In The Battle of the Labyrinth, Percy has to go through the Labyrinth, a big subterranean maze in order to defend the camp against Luke (a son of Hermes and servant of the Titan lord Kronos). The quest in The Sea of Monsters was intended to be led by Clarisse (daughter of Ares), but Percy sneaks out of camp because he needs to find Grover, his best friend/protector and because he believes Clarries will muck up. In The Titan's Curse, he is also not selected to go on the quest, but he follows the group because he wants to save Annabeth, who has been captured by the Titans. Percy has a crush on Annabeth, but his love life has been difficult as a result of Aphrodite's promise she made to him when she met him in the desert. After he helps Zoë, Bianca, Grover, and Thalia, Zoë reluctantly allows him to become the fifth member of their team. In The Last Olympian, he takes on the curse of Achilles, which makes him invincible in all but one point, which is a spot on his back, directly behind his navel, and leads the army against Kronos. In The Lost Hero, Hera/Juno sends Percy to the Roman Camp as an exchange, with no memories of who he is or where he has come from, so that he can learn about them. In The Son of Neptune Percy has been running from Medusa's sisters for days when he finally reaches Camp Jupiter, having to cross the Little Tiber river, and removing the curse of Achilles. Mars appears and claims Frank Zhang as his son and sends Frank, Percy and Hazel Levesque on a quest to free Thanatos. Percy memories are very weak, he remembers Annabeth as someone who kisses him when he does something stupid, and that she must have kissed him a lot. Throughout the series, Percy is described as having his father's jet black hair and deep sea green eyes. His strong resemblance to Poseidon is one of the reasons why Medusa wanted to keep him as a statue. When he first arrives at Camp Half Blood, he is described as weak, skinny, and unfit, but eventually becomes more athletic due to his training at Camp Half-Blood. After the events of The Titan's Curse, Percy gains gray streaks in his hair after taking Atlas' burden of holding up the sky. It is not mentioned if the grey streaks disappear over time or not, as they have never been talked about again in the series. According to the UK website, Percy is 5'10" by The Last Olympian. In the film, Percy is portrayed by Logan Lerman.
