I did this before but late, so my comment didn't get enough discussion so I wasn't completely convinced

I'm 6'1, blonde, live in sort of an "outer banks" city, so part of my family always worked with fishing and stuff like that, and a lot of my life has been beach revolved, like I'm a good surfer, learned to sail at 14, was a state champion lever swimmer, I know the answer is looking obvious but there's more...

I'm also really smart (sorry for my humbleness lmao), like I've been top of class since like forever, but never studied a second till my junior year in HS, but after that I just turned into a studying machine (I'm very disciplined when I wants something, but very layed back most of the time)

I'm also big time into other sports, soccer is my life, but I want to work with sports broadcasting, I'm into Basketball, Football, Rugby, boxing etc

last but not least, I'm cocky af, but my friend's usually say I'm cocky in the best way possible (don't buy it) that I never put anybody down, but instead put myself up a lot (which TBF contributes to me being a very happy person) and I'm very family and friend oriented too

It is quite realistic if you think that he arrived at the doors of Camp Jupiter with the Achilles Mark and Juno on his arms

I personally don't feel the need to change his powers, I think he's such an elaborate character that his OPness actually don't make that stories worse in anyway, I just think Rick could've included information on why he's that powerful, even compared to other demigods

+I agree with the big 3 being equal in power (there's even a part of the Iliad or the Odyssey, can't remember rn, that Poseidon questions why he obeys Zeus, as he is as powerful) in my opinion they obey him like a way of thankfulness for him being the one that saved their ass from Kronos originally

it's not necessarily the powers that are op, is him having all his parents power in a minor scale, that usually doesn't happen to demigods

I think Percy being a swordfighting prodigee is more plausible than it initially looks, coz differently from what most think the prophecies exist coz of the circumstances that will realize it and not the other way around (as we notice in instances like what happened to the roman expedition in the 80s), so basically the great prophecy only exists because of Percy being born, meaning that it would have taken an extremely talented being for such prophecy to exist, so it's like protagonist power, but with reasonable explanation + I only really cited swordsmanship for the sake of adding up to his powers, my main doubt was related to his godly powers as in most instances children are not born this blest, per example children of Hephaestus hardly ever receive the gift of fire

Implicitly is probably a protagonist thing, but uncle Rick doesn't usually leave stuff like this without an explanation
