Annabeth Chase

Thalia is a teenage girl with shoulder-length, spiky black hair, electric blue eyes (though they are "stormy green" in Percy's dream of her in The Lightning Thief and stormy blue in Percy's dream in The Sea of Monsters), and freckles across her nose. Thalia is an exceptionally brave, strong, and caring girl, though at times she can be profoundly stubborn, prideful, and assertive, much like her father Zeus. As a daughter of Zeus, one of the Big Three, Thalia is extremely powerful and and is very skilled with a spear (as shown when she defeated Luke in combat). After becoming a Hunter of Artemis, she also became extremely skilled with a bow and arrow and knives.

ADHD: Like all demigods, Thalia possesses inborn supernatural battle reflexes and senses that she uses to analyze the fighting style of her opponent. She also could sense imminent danger, as she did in The Titan's Curse at Westover Academy. Dyslexia: Her brain is hard-wired for reading Ancient Greek instead of modern languages. Superhuman Strength: As a demigod daughter of Zeus, one of the Big Three, Thalia's strength was naturally considerable and surpasses most other demigods. In The Titan's Curse, Thalia managed not to drop her shield when it was bombarded by the Manticore's darts, projectiles thrown powerfully enough to severely damage Percy's shield. Superhuman Speed: Thalia managed to evade the Nemean Lion's claws in close quarters. Mist Control: Thalia can manipulate the Mist, which means she can make things appear as she wants them to appear to the eyes of a mortal (taught to her by Chiron, shown in The Titan's Curse). However, she only has limited control over this ability. Intimidation: Thalia is said to be very scary in battle, something enhanced by the aura her shield generates. When angered, her glare looked like she would "shoot a million volts."

Early Life at Camp During the next three years, Annabeth would talk to her father via letters, as phones were too dangerous for a demigod. He would occasionally ask her to return home, but she always refused. Her father then sent her his Harvard college ring, in hopes that she would remember him by it and be convinced to come home.

Annabeth was ten years old when she heard the Great Prophecy. She had constant nightmares about it because Chiron told her that she would have a part to play. Every time a new camper came to Camp Half-Blood, she wondered if they were "the one," even if none of them were children of the Big Three. Shortly afterward, Annabeth returned home at her father's request, but promptly called Chiron and returned to Camp Half-Blood before the end of the winter holidays since monsters continued attacking her and nothing had changed in her family.

In The Mark of Athena, it is mentioned that several years before Annabeth met Percy, Connor Stoll had placed a tarantula in her bunk, a prank for which she nearly killed him. At some point around this time, Grover taught Annabeth a wilderness survival course, which while she considered "silly" at the time, would come in handy for her years later.

Artemis, who tried recruiting Thalia among their ranks, but she refused in favor of remaining with Luke and Annabeth.

Journey to Camp Half-Blood Eventually, the trio ran into Grover Underwood, a satyr, who was in charge of taking demigods like them to Camp Half-Blood. The quartet began to travel to Camp Half-Blood but were chased by monsters sent by Hades, who was still furious and bitter about Zeus's murder of his beloved Maria di Angelo having children, hoping to kill Thalia. Furthermore, Grover took some wrong turns on the way and led them into an abandoned mansion, which was a Cyclops lair. The Cyclopes separated them, using a loved one's voice to lure each person into a trap, capturing everyone except Annabeth. After wandering around, she managed to find the place where the Cyclops was keeping Thalia, Luke, and Grover, who were all hanging over a pot. The Cyclops tried to lure Annabeth to him by imitating her father's voice, but instead of going to the voice and getting captured as well, she stabbed him hard in the foot, which startled him, and untied Thalia, who then took care of everything else. Despite their escape, the group was delayed long enough for a pack of Hellhounds and all three Furies to catch up to them. They couldn't outrun them, so Thalia decided to stay behind so that Annabeth, Luke, and Grover could make it safely to Half-Blood Hill. While Thalia held back Hades' approaching army with her Aegis shield, Luke was forced to lead a crying Annabeth to Camp Half-Blood. As Thalia was dying surrounded by monsters, Zeus took pity on his daughter and turned her into a pine tree so that she wouldn't die and have to be judged by Hades.

A seven-year-old Annabeth was hiding under a sheet of corrugated iron in Richmond Ironworks, the same alley twelve-year-old Thalia Grace and fourteen-year-old Luke Castellan were hiding in once they escaped the house of monsters. After escaping, Thalia and Luke heard a noise coming from it and investigated the sound. After removing the sheet of iron, Annabeth ran toward Luke with her hammer and almost brained him with it, thinking he was a monster. Upon finding that Annabeth was a demigod, Luke and Thalia agreed that she could run away with them and Luke promised that he wouldn't let anything hurt her and they would become a better family than her old family, a promise he would break some years later. Luke gave Annabeth a bronze knife, which he got from Halcyon Green, so she would be able to protect herself with something better than a hammer for monster slaying. Together, they went on the run, fighting monsters and making hideouts on the East Coast which were woven from plants, like Native American huts. (Said huts still contain sleeping bags, blankets, ice chests, and kerosene lamps, along with Celestial Bronze javelin tips, quivers with arrows, swords, and nectar/ambrosia.) They also took quite a few photos of themselves during this time, as shown in The Lost Hero. They show Luke wearing ragged makeshift leather armor over his t-shirt, enthusiastically pointing to a dark alley, Luke and Annabeth sitting at a campfire and laughing hysterically, and a photo of them together with Thalia.

After visiting Luke's old house to get medical supplies for Thalia, the group met Hermes for the first time. From that point on, Luke was never the same and began to act like he had something to prove, which the young Annabeth didn't see as a problem since Luke was her personal hero. They got into more skirmishes because of his recklessness, fighting more monsters since Luke wanted to pick a fight with each one, he came across. They once ran into Zoë Nightshade and the Hunters of

Percy Jackson: When Annabeth meets Percy, it isn't love at first sight—after all, Percy's father, Poseidon, and Annabeth's mother, Athena, are bitter rivals. But after they start going on quests together, the two soon become friends, and eventually, their companionship blooms into romance.

Luke Castellan: Long before Percy Jackson won her heart, there was fellow demigod, Luke Castellan, Annabeth's childhood friend and longtime crush. But as her feelings develop for Percy, she realizes Luke was more like family to her than a true love interest. And for a time, Luke turns toward evil—as a result, Annabeth and Luke become enemies for some while.

Grover Underwood: Satyr Grover Underwood is one of Annabeth's closest friends, and he was the protector who showed her the way to Camp Half-Blood when she was a child.

Athena: Annabeth has a close relationship with her mother, the goddess Athena. Athena is a hero to Annabeth, and Annabeth tries to live her life in a way she thinks would make her mother proud.

Fredrick Chase: Annabeth's father is Professor Fredrick Chase. Although she was raised by her father until she was seven, Annabeth is certain her father hates her and her demigod status, which is why she runs away to become a full-time resident of Camp Half-Blood. Throughout the series, Annabeth and her father try to reestablish a good relationship with each other, with varying results.

Annabeth is also quite skilled in combat. As the daughter of the goddess of war, Annabeth possesses superhuman agility and strength. She's proficient with many weapons, including knives, a bow and arrows, and swords. She has a near-perfect memory and never forgets anything she hears. She's a master at the art of persuasion. And on top of all of that, she also happens to be a wiz in the kitchen, a gifted cook and baker.

Annabeth Chase was born on July 12, 1993, to the goddess Athena and mortal Professor Fredrick Chase. But she wasn't really born, traditionally speaking—Annabeth was literally thought into existence as a gift of love from Athena to Fredrick. Although her father raised her, Annabeth never felt loved by her father, and so, at seven years old, she ran away to Camp Half-Blood with Luke Castellan, Thalia Grace, and Grover Underwood.

When she is 12, Annabeth meets Percy Jackson at Camp Half-Blood. She hears that Percy must go on a quest to retrieve Zeus's stolen Master Bolt from Hades, and she insists on going with him, thinking that Percy is "the one" from The Great Prophecy. This quest, chronicled in The Lightning Thief and the debut season of the Disney+ series, is the first of many quests Annabeth will undertake with Percy.

In The Sea of Monsters, Annabeth, Percy, and Tyson sneak out of Camp Half-Blood to search for the Golden Fleece. In this book, Annabeth also reveals some of her biggest dreams—to redesign the world, to save Luke Castellan from himself, and to be accepted fully by both her mother and father. Annabeth saves Percy when he is transformed into a guinea pig by the witch Circe, but she is fatally injured during their fight with Polyphemus. Thankfully, she is able to be healed by the Golden Fleece.

She also has a deep fear of spiders, (arachnophobia), due to the contest between Athena and Arachne.
