Annabeth Chase (2023)
Annabeth Chase (Leah Jeffries) is a major character in Percy Jackson and the Olympians, streaming on Disney+. Based on the novels by Rick Riordan, Annabeth is a fourteen year old demigod or “half-blood.” She’s the daughter of Athena, goddess of wisdom and war. She ran away from home at seven and traveled with Luke and Thalia. Grover also escorted her to Camp Half Blood. She meets Percy at camp and recruits him for Capture the Flag, using him as a distraction to win the game. Luke describes her as “six steps ahead of everyone else,” a nod to her infallible intelligence and strategy. Her major ambition is to go on a quest, and she joins Percy and Grover to find Zeus’ master bolt. Her signature accessory is her Yankees cap, a gift from her mother, which renders the wearer invisible.
Mr. D (Dionysus)
Mr. D – short for Dionysus – is a character in Percy Jackson and the Olympians on Disney+ based on the novels by Rick Riordan. Dionysus is the Greek god of wine. As punishment for going after his favorite wood nymph, Zeus punishes his son to be the camp director at Camp Half Blood for one-hundred years. He’s pretty miserable, especially because he’s forbidden to drink wine…doomed to only drink Diet Coke. In the live action series, Jason Mantzoukas portrays Mr. D with spot-on sarcasm and humor.

Annabeth Chase
Annabeth Chase is a main character in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians books written by Rick Riordan. She is a half blood, specifically the daughter of Athena, and is one of the seven demigods in the Prophecy. Like her mother, she is intelligent, witty, and level-headed. However, her fatal flaw is hubris, thinking she can do things better than everyone, even the gods. Her main weapon is a bronze knife, but she can wield any weapon with extraordinary skill. Before arriving at Camp Half Blood, she traveled alongside Luke and Thalia. At first, she playfully teased Percy, but their friendship eventually blossomed into romance.
Luke Castellan
Luke Castellan is the main antagonist in the Percy Jackson and Olympian books written by Rick Riordan. He was a half blood, specifically the son of Hermes. After his travels with Annabeth and Thalia, he came to Camp Half Blood. As the head counselor of his cabin, he welcomed Percy to camp. However, Luke was revealed as a traitor because he stole Zeus’ lightning bolt. His father’s absence provoked his revenge against the gods, so Luke pledged allegiance to Kronos and allowed him to possess his body. He died as a result of Kronos’ defeat. His weapon was Backbiter, a sword that is a shortened version of Kronos’ scythe. His scar down his face was from the dragon who guards the Garden of Hesperides.
Percy Jackson
“Look, I didn’t want to be a half blood…”Percy Jackson is the protagonist of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians books written by Rick Riordan. He has trouble in school, because like other demigods, he has dyslexia and ADHD because his brain is hardwired for ancient Greek. After defeating his teacher, Mrs. Dodds, who was actually a Fury, he gets sent to Camp Half Blood. He meets Annabeth Chase, who calls him “Seaweed Brain,” but she eventually becomes his girlfriend. While there, he learns he is the son of Poseidon. Percy goes on several quests as a part of his coming of age, which culminate in the defeat of the Kronos in the body of Luke. He deeply cares for his friends, as well as his mother, Sally Jackson. His fatal flaw in the Prophecy is personal loyalty, and his sword, Riptide, can turn into a pen. Fun fact: Percy only eats blue food.
Nico Di Angelo from Percy Jackson
Nico Di Angelo is a character in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians books written by Rick Riordan. He is a half-blood, specifically the son of Hades. Upon first appearing in The Titan’s Curse, Nico is a curious and nerdy kid who enjoys collecting Mythomagic figures. Once he regains his memories and discovers his parentage, he casts aside his childhood interests and becomes more reserved. His powers are the most fearsome of any demigod. At the end of the series, he comes out and starts dating Will Solace. Nico doesn’t appear in the movie or musical adaptation, so this costume guide is based on the book’s descriptions. Use light makeup to make yourself paler and black eyeshadow to sink in your cheeks.
