( Talk:List of characters in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series and in the Heroes of Olympus series) I organised a few lists. The minor character list was supposed to be in alphabetical order, yet Ms Dare was organised in the list as if her first name began with M. There were similar errors with Dr Chase and Ms Grade. The Olympian gods were also organised in alphabetical order except Zeus and Hera. However it seemed odd that Poseidon was at the bottom so I moved Poseidon to under Zeus as he is one of the big three and is higher in the heirachy than Hera. Apart from the big three and Hera, there didn't seem to be any other orders of power so I left the rest in alphabetical order.
Since he plays a big part in the first series, more so than a lot of the other gods such as Demeter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.118.140.24 ( talk) 13:32, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
I changed him back to a minor god alongside Hestia. The list is not of major gods but of Olympians. They are both definitively not Olympians. However I also edited Hades' description to emphasize that he is still one of the three most powerful gods. Perhaps the list should be changed to 'Non-Olympian gods' as 'Minor gods' seems to be a little inaccurate as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.255.204.123 ( talk) 11:49, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
I believe Annabeth Chase should have her own article for the following reasons:
1.In the book, the Mark of Athena, Annabeth plays a major role. Rick Riordan himself said that the revolves around her quest.
2.Annabeth is the de-facto leader of the prophecy of the seven(as stated in the books). As such, when all the other characters in the seven(Eg:Hazel,Frank) have their own pages, she should be notable enough to have one as well.
3. She has been featured or at least mentioned in all of the books until now. She was a major character in the first series and I stated above, she is the leader of the seven.
4. She has had her own point of view in both the House of Hades and the Mark of Athena. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.195.71.21 ( talk) 11:15, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
Don't forget, she's one of the trio of herself, Percy and Grover, and is Percy's girlfriend. Ari ( talk) 11:02, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
Clarisse is surely a lead character in the first series. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 112.119.12.47 ( talk) 11:45, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
OK, I don't know if this is necessary or not, but since most of the demigods have nicknames (though I don't remember Nico being called "Death Breath"), more should be added. For example, Jason's called "Sparky" and I think Piper called Leo "Repair boy" (he wanted to be called "Supreme Commander of Argos II" or something) in The Lost Hero. Leo also calls Piper "Beauty Queen" Just a suggestion! — Preceding unsigned comment added by LovelyEdit ( talk • contribs) 18:38, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
Why was Annabeth's article deleted? Isn't she a main character, just like Percy and Jason and Piper and Hazel? Surely she's just as important as the rest of the Seven? And she appears in every book in the first series alongside Percy and Grover. Why on earth-? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.61.98.171 ( talk) 09:22, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
Because on Wikipedia, creating an article for ONE fictional character does not show any signs of importance. Which is why that all characters from Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus which still has a stand-alone article will be requested to be moved to this page. EnvyDC ( talk) 08:39, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
But the pictures must have significant discriptions for the sake of the visually impaired. Ari ( talk) 11:07, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
There were gods that werent olympians there are only twelve olympians so to make things more accurate — Preceding unsigned comment added by Percyjackonlover ( talk • contribs) 12:32, 27 October 2013 (UTC)
Clearly, Annabeth should have her own page. She is one of the most important members of the seven, especially since she is one of the main characters in both book series. Plus, if Percy gets his own page, so should Annabeth, because not only are they romantically involved, but because if she didn't exist neither would Percy Jackson since he would've died in the first book if not for her. So, if Jason, Piper, and Percy get a Wiki page, Annabeth does too.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.251.72.25 ( talk • contribs)
Hello, people.
However, as Annabeth is as important as the seven, under rule A7 of the criteria, we shouldn't be talking about who's important and who's not.
We hope that you will try your best to edit this article, due to its issues.
Thank you. -Ryguyrocky- Ryguyrocky ( talk) 13:36, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
Regardless of whether characters like Annabeth Chase and Thalia Grace should have their own pages, if they do then it would be helpful for people involved with those articles to edit this one and shorten up the descriptions of characters who have their own pages. If we can get it down to just the bare minimum and put a "main article" link, that would be helpful I think, for those who have not read the series.
I'm speaking specifically about the section on Percy, as his article is already pretty beefy, and all that he has here is just extra. I rally don't want to see any articles get deleted because there's too much available already.
Perhaps someone could establish a few basics to state about each character on this page like: Name, gender, ancestry, powers. If they're super-minor, it could even just be a reference to where and when they appear. Most characters who are important enough that someone would look them up are described well in the articles on the books and in articles on the main characters -- again, another case where "see also" would be helpful. This page should be about the relationships between characters, not romances and things, but 'X knows Y because of this' and 'This is the unique stuff about Z'. 2ReinreB2 ( talk) 05:16, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Frequently in the novels, there are mentioned demigods who are in fact historical figures: Jack London and Harriet Tubman, for example. Is there a consensus of how they should be handled in this article? Should wikilinks to the person's actual pages be included? Is there a special note that should be made about them being historical figures? It seems kind of tricky to talk about some of them, as a few may still be living, and that would require adherence to the biography guidelines. Please feel free to share your view, especially if you think that some changes tot he article ought to be made. 2ReinreB2 ( talk) 02:41, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Considering the page is called "List of Camp Half-Blood characters", not Percy Jackson and the Olympians characters, I think we should reorganize it. For example, Grover should not be considered a main character for both of the series, while characters such as Nico appeared more times. I think that we should merge the main Heroes of Olympus characters with the main Percy Jackson of the Olympians characters and rethink the organization. Zussman1 ( talk) 20:31, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello, all. I just removed the section of this page entitled "In Rick Riordan Presents". The lead of this page states that it covers characters in "mythology novels by Rick Riordan" (emphasis added). In my opinion, it is not smart to include characters in books not actually written by Riordan - which is why I removed the section. This page is already huge. I encourage interested editors to create another page for these characters or their relevant book(s). If you disagree or have any other opinions, please start a discussion below. Thanks. -- 2ReinreB2 ( talk) 23:47, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
Some deities listed in the section are not minor (Hades, Persephone, Enyo, etc.) I believe that it would be better if it were renamed as Other Greco-Roman Gods RSSP-2020 (talk) 14:07, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
