The strongest character Percy Jackson is Nico. He is so resilient throughout the books and his life was very miserable. Will really made it better. Also guys he was just 11 or sumn when he had to go through all the misery.

He honestly imo dealt with the worst of it. He had to go through losing his sister who was the only person he truly trusted, he literally survived Tartarus ALONE and at freakin age 11 like bruh I think even Percy mentioned that he would’ve died in Tartarus if not for Annabeth, and Nico was forced by Cupid into coming out and had to learn to accept himself for who he was. Also he experienced the loss of Jason particularly hard because they were pretty close friends (he was the first to know about Nicos sexuality) and Nico was devastated. You can’t see someone going through all of that and surviving and not call them strong.

Younger when he lost his mother. Was a key player in the Titan war, faced Kronos, saved olympus, crawled through Tartarus ALONE! spent days trapped in a death trance, had to drag a giant statue of Athena from one side of the world to the other, forced to open up about his sexuality before he was ready (damn you Eros), became so weak that the very shadows he controlled threatened to consume him. The only 2 good things I can tell about his life: He now has Will Solace to love and help heal his heart and his sister Hazel to offer support.

@@emperor_msk In the book, you can see that when Zoë is explaining the "benefits" of being a Hunter, she starts off with immortality. Percy then goes to say that Nico is under her protection at the moment, and since Nico can't be a hunter, he'd be left by himself. /Artemis/, however, goes in to convince her that by leaving Nico, she'd feel a lot better, because she wouldn't have the responsibility of taking care of him anymore. Only /after/ Bianca takes the pledge does Artemis say he'd stay at camp. All she knew about camp at the time was that it was a training place for demigods. So her choosing to leave her TEN YEAR OLD brother because he was too much of a burden was because she didn't want to take care of him. She had no idea how anyone would treat him or what camp would be like at the time she took her oath.

Personally, I think Nico's fatal flaw wasn't holding grudges, but rather self loathing. He seemed to go out of his way to be miserable and alone, because he felt that as a son of Hades and a homosexual (From a time an place where that wasn't acceptable) he is suppose to have a bad life.

This may get me unpopular with some of the fandom, but Bianca is really shitty. I mean she literally decides to ditch her brother, who's 10 at most in a camp full of people she doesn't know to join a bunch of immortal girl strangers and forever forsake men. He's the only family she has, and she's all he has. Yet she just decides to willingly be a hunter, after being told not only that she'll be immortal so she'll outlive her brother and see him die a old man at best, that she'll not be able to see him for 99.999% of the time, and that she'll never get a chance to grow up or find love. And she decides to take a stranger girls and a self proclaimed goddess word for being able to visit him every now and then, which she should know that as immortals who especially detest men and camp, means likely once every 50 years. Thalia nearly joined, but upon realising she would have to leave Luke and Annabeth, both of whom like Nico have no family to rely on and would be utterly devastated if she left, she declined. She even only joins the hunters to escape the prophecy since she knows she's not the right person. Zoe joined since she was banished from her home and cast out of her family, and betrayed by Hercules who left her for dust. Bianca joined because she was a selfish horrible sister, who at 12/13 forever turned her back on her brother.And it's not like she shows herself to be a good person, she gladly hangs out with her fellow hunters at every turn, never spending anytime with Nico while at camp, despite this potentially being the last time she'll see him in his lifetime, she tells Nico she's joining the hunters and leaving him with not even apologetic tone or any remorse, for breaking his heart at knowing his sister just wants to be rid of him, she admits to Percy later it was just because she was sick of him and wanted to be by herself, and that since Percy is there it's fine, dumping the role onto Percy.Then she causes the automaton to awaken, and although it was for Nico and she does sacrifice herself doing something good, she is really bland and boring as a character.Then, she chooses rebirth and just says fuck you to Nico getting to see her again, since at best when Nico dies and she dies, he'll go to Elysium for all the good deeds he did for the greek world and demigods, while she'll go to Asphodyl at best since she likely wouldn't be reborn as a demigod so do nothing heroic, which is how you go to Elysium by doing really good things, as opposed to living a life where you are good by never doing anything actually bad, but never actually doing anything good/heroic which is Asphodyl.She's one of my least favourite characters, because she is very bland and unlikeable for leaving Nico like that, and then never even regrets leaving him.

I don't really know where to comment this, but I've sort of found two minor errors with adapting Greek myth in the book that have to do with the underworld 1. "Isles of the Blessed" is another name for Elysium. They're the same thing. 2. Reincarnation using the Lethe doesn't seem like something that was widely believed back in ancient Greece, the only mention of the river being used in reincarnating souls was Virgil's account of the underworld. Virgil was a Roman author, not a Greek one, so it only applies to Roman demigods and legacies? And I have no idea where Riordan got the "three reincarnations" thing.

Sorry if I sound like a hater, but I was so invested in her as a character, that it surprised me after their adventures 'Blood of Olympus,' she and Nico weren't set up together.
