Annabeth Chase

"You drool in your sleep."

- Annabeth to Percy Jackson in The Lightning Thief

Annabeth Chase is a seventeen-year-old Greek demigod, the daughter of Athena and Frederick Chase, and the cousin of Norse demigod Magnus Chase. She is the head counselor of Athena's cabin and the architect of Olympus. She is currently in a relationship with Percy Jackson.

Before Birth
Annabeth's father, Frederick Chase, met Athena, the goddess of wisdom, battle, and handicrafts, while he was studying History at Harvard. Athena helped him get through his studies; consequently, they fell in love. Shortly after, in 1993, as a gift, Athena sent him Annabeth. She appeared on Frederick's doorstep in a golden cradle carried down from Olympus by Zephyros, the West Wind. She was considered a "brain child" like all other children of Athena, which means that they were born from the thoughts of the goddess. However, her father asked Athena to take Annabeth back to Olympus and raise her there, as he didn't see Annabeth as a gift the way Athena did. Athena refused and told him that heroes were supposed to be raised by their mortal parents and not their godly ones. In the end, he had no choice but to reluctantly take her in and care for her as well as he could.

Childhood
Taking up the last name of her mortal parent (which is her father, in her case) Annabeth Chase was born on July 12, 1993. When Annabeth was five, her father got married. He and his wife had two kids together, twins Matthew and Bobby Chase. Since Annabeth was a demigod, she was a target for monsters, causing constant fighting between Annabeth and her parents, as they felt that she was constantly putting them all in danger.

As revealed in The Sword of Summer, when Annabeth was seven years old (shortly before she ran away from home), she had visited her Uncle Randolph at his mansion during Thanksgiving and played with her then five or six-year-old cousin Magnus, while Fredrick argued with Randolph, Annabeth's Uncle, and Magnus's mother, Natalie. This argument created a rift in the family that caused the separation between Annabeth, Magnus, Randolph, and Natalie for many years.

As revealed in The Mark of Athena, Annabeth was once assaulted by a flood of spiders at night when she was little. She would subsequently scream for her father, though her step-mom thought she was making it up every time and refused to call him; because whenever her step-mom came into her bedroom, the spiders would hide. By the time she got dressed each morning, the marks of the painful bites inflicted on her had already faded, leaving the cobwebs, which did not make for a convincing proof. As a result, Annabeth ran away from home at the young age of seven thinking her family hated her, after three nights in a row of enduring the torture of spiders sent by Arachne. She then fought monsters with the guidance of her mother, Athena, for a few months, using only a mortal hammer.

Meeting Thalia and Luke
A seven-year-old Annabeth was hiding under a sheet of corrugated iron in Richmond Ironworks in the same alley twelve-year-old Thalia Grace and Fourteen-year-old Luke Castellan was hiding in after escaping 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 a 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. 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 were on the run, fighting monsters and making hideouts on the East coast, like the one Percy Jackson, Annabeth, and Tyson used in Jamestown, Virginia. They also ran into Zoë Nightshade and the Hunters of Artemis, who tried recruiting Thalia among their ranks, but she refused in favor of remaining with Luke and Annabeth.

The Cyclops
Eventually, they ran into Grover Underwood, a satyr, who took them to camp, but took some wrong turns on the way. One of these was into a Cyclops lair, and everyone but Annabeth was captured. Annabeth, after wandering around, found where the Cyclops was keeping Thalia, Luke and Grover. They were hanging over a pot. The Cyclops tried to lure Annabeth to him by imitating her dad's voice, but instead of going to the voice and getting captured as well, she stabbed him hard in the foot and untied Thalia, who then took care of everything else. It was because of this that she at first disliked Tyson when Poseidon claimed him making him Percy's brother, before the couple eventually accepted him.

Thalia's Pine Tree
Despite their escape, they were delayed long enough for the pack of monsters pursuing them to catch up. They couldn't outrun them, so Thalia made the ultimate sacrifice; she said she would stay behind so Annabeth, Luke and Grover could make it safely to Half-Blood Hill. It is unknown whether she actually fought the monsters or not, but it is presumed that she fought them and was mortally wounded. Zeus, feeling sorry for his daughter, saved her life by turning her into a pine tree, later renamed Thalia's Pine Tree. This tree became a barrier for the camp against monsters and mortals unless they were invited over the barrier by someone from inside the camp.

Hearing the Prophecy and Attempt to Return
Three years later, when Annabeth was ten years old, she heard the Great Prophecy and continued to have nightmares about it. Every time a new camper came to Camp Half-Blood, Annabeth wondered if they were "the one," even if none of them were children of the Big Three, because Chiron told her that she would have a part to play in the Great Prophecy. Strangely, three years later, Annabeth said that she did not know the whole prophecy, but she may have lied to Percy to protect him after being told to do so by Chiron.

During these 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 Annabeth 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. She started to wear his ring on her necklace with the beads that she earned every year at Camp Half-Blood. Finally, a 10-year-old Annabeth returned home at her father's request, but left, promptly called Chiron, and returned to Camp Half-Blood before the end of the winter holidays, since she saw that monsters continued attacking and that nothing had changed in her family.

Early Life at Camp
In The Mark of Athena, it is mentioned that several years before she met Percy, Connor Stoll had placed a tarantula into her bunk, a prank that she nearly killed him for.

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 to her years later.

Percy Jackson and the Bronze Dragon
Annabeth is the captain for the team opposing Percy's in Capture the Flag at Camp Half-Blood. Apparently trying to trick Percy, she tells him that although her team will crush his, he "won't get pulverized too much" if he picks a safe position, such as the right flank. Percy chooses to scout around the left flank with Charles Beckendorf, reasoning that Annabeth must not have wanted him to go that way for a strategic reason. Shortly after Beckendorf and Percy find Ant Hill and Beckendorf decides to try to recover Festus' head from the Myrmekes, Annabeth and Silena Beauregard, who have been following them all along, show up. Annabeth puts her knife to Percy's throat and after saying to him that boys are easy to follow because they "make more noise than a lovesick Minotaur", she disarms him and takes him as a prisoner of her team. Percy, Silena, and Annabeth soon realize that Beckendorf is in trouble and overwhelmed by the Myrmekes, but Annabeth refuses to let Percy run over and help. She leads Percy and Silena to the dragon's head, then the three of them drag it away from Ant Hill. Led by Annabeth, they look for the dragon's body, finally finding it in another part of the woods. Annabeth repairs the dragon to the best of her abilities, then activates it. The three of them lead the dragon back to Ant Hill, where he attacks the Myrmekes and buys time while Annabeth, Percy, and Silena find Beckendorf and get him to safety. They kill several Myrmekes on their way out. The four of them then deactivate the dragon. Annabeth helps Percy (who got a bit of Myrmeke acid through his shoe) limp through the woods, back towards camp. Percy and Annabeth are just starting to talk about the subject of the fireworks on the 4th of July when three of her siblings from the Athena cabin jump out of the bushes and congratulate Annabeth for capturing two prisoners, Percy and Beckendorf. Annabeth puts them in her team's jail, with them protesting all the way. She then asks Percy "See you at the fireworks?" and leaves without waiting for his answer.

The Sword of Hades
Percy remembers his last conversation with Annabeth in a train of positive thoughts to think about something other than a poisonous wound he has.

The Lost Hero
Annabeth appears in a chariot pulled by pegasi with Butch, a demigod son of Iris, the carrier of messages through rainbow "Iris-messages" for the gods and the Rainbow Goddess, to pick up the three demigods Jason Grace, son of Jupiter, Piper McLean, daughter of Aphrodite, and Leo Valdez, the son Hephaestus. It is revealed she and Percy are still dating. Annabeth and Butch, went to the Grand Canyon in search for Percy, who has been missing for three days. Annabeth had been receiving visions from Hera, that a hero with one shoe, which she finds out is Jason, will solve her problems, which is finding Percy. She is also shown frustrated and worried with Percy's disappearance. Before leaving the Grand Canyon, Annabeth yells to the sky, "What do you want from me? What have you done with him?" Annabeth gives Piper a tour of Camp Half-Blood, also letting Piper choose her weapon Katoptris, then explaining that Piper's relationship with Jason at the Wilderness School was an illusion due to the Mist and wanting to give Piper a chance to break down privately when she realized the same thing, though she has been holding herself together as well, it is obvious that Annabeth is equally crushed at losing Percy so mysteriously.

When Jason is given his quest to rescue Hera from the capture of Polyphrion the giant, Annabeth refuses to accompany the quest group, partly because the prophecy states that children of Hephaestus, Jupiter/Zeus, and Aphrodite will go instead, and partly out of her own distaste for Hera. Instead, she uses the time they are gone to continue her search for Percy.

After the quest group returns and relates their findings — the rise of the giants, the attempted return of Gaea, and the fact that Jason was "exchanged" to the Greek Camp Half-Blood — Annabeth puts everything together and realizes, as Jason has, that Percy has been taken to the Roman Camp called Camp Jupiter as the corresponding half of the exchange. She vows to accompany Jason, Piper, and Leo when they journey there to retrieve him.

The Son of Neptune
While Percy Jackson is running away from the gorgons, Stheno and Euryale, he sees San Francisco, which reminds him of Annabeth, the only person he can remember from his past. Also, when Percy talked to Lupa, she told him that if he completed his quest, he would see Annabeth again soon.

Before Percy goes on his quest to free Thanatos, he has a dream and sees Annabeth. She tells him to stay at Camp Jupiter because Tyson and Mrs. O'Leary are close by and are trying to find him. When Percy wakes up, he feels bad that he will have to ignore Annabeth and go on the quest anyway as the Roman campers need him. During his quest, Percy has flashes of memory about Annabeth, as when he looked at Mount Tam, he remembered the fight with Atlas and he told Frank and Hazel he had been their once looking for Annabeth. Later when looking for Ella in a library, he said Annabeth would like this place as it was quiet and filled with books. He later remembers that she loved architecture.

After completing the quest, Hera appears to Percy in his dream. She tells him that Annabeth will cause him trouble in the future. When Percy says that Annabeth is the person he most wants watching his back, Hera says "We shall see," and tells Percy that she will have a hard task ahead of her when he arrives in Rome and that she may not be up to it.

The next morning, Percy arrives in the Senate meeting to discuss the arrival of the Argo II, which they will allow to land. As he goes to meet the ship, he says he knows Annabeth is on board and this could be the best day of his life if everything went right.

The Blood of Olympus
Annabeth and Piper disguise themselves as Greek serving maidens and Jason enchants himself to appear as an old man by the name of Iros. They are doing this in order to infiltrate Odysseus' palace, where a "gathering of evil spirits" is taking place. After sneaking into the palace, Annabeth repeats their plans before splitting up from the group. She is seen collecting empty plates and goblets, but when Antinous questions Jason about his purpose among the suitors, Annabeth helps to stall by spilling wine down the ghoul's neck.

When Jason's mother appears, Annabeth informs him that it's only a remnant of Beryl Grace. She later fights the attacking suitors with her drakon-bone sword, taking down many, including Hasdrubal the Carthaginian. Sometime during the fight, Annabeth also received a cut on the side of her neck. She appears at Jason's side when he is stabbed by Michael Varus with an Imperial Gold sword, feeding the wounded boy ambrosia and telling him about Luke's problems with his own mother.

Piper instructs Annabeth to contact Leo through Morse code. She returns saying that Frank will change form and fly Jason up to the Argo II, before crafting a litter that will secure him. When Juno appears, Annabeth coldly addresses the goddess, still bitter at her for wiping Percy's memories and taking him away.

Percy Jackson's Greek Gods
After finishing his narration of the book, Percy mentions being late to a meeting with Annabeth, which worries him.

Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes
Right after finishing his narration of this book, Percy reveals that after the events of The Blood of Olympus, he, Annabeth, and the rest of the Seven started the tradition of monthly Argo II reunion parties, and he is quite worried about being late to the current one.

The Son of Sobek
While Annabeth herself doesn't appear in this book, she is mentioned once by Percy when the latter claims that Carter reminds him of her.

The Sword of Summer
Ten years after the quarrel between the three Chase siblings, Annabeth and Fredrick go looking for Magnus in Boston after being notified by Randolph that Magnus has been missing since Natalie's death two years previously. Magnus sees them on the street and goes to Randolph's house to look for answers.

She then sees Magnus at the funeral home and hugs him she then explains that Randolph said their family was special and attracted attention. She offers to take him to a safe place, but he declines, Hearth then walks in and he and Magnus leave, but not before she gives him a flyer with her cellphone number on it.

She later meets Magnus at Blue Hill to scatter his mother's ashes and they tell each other about their lives.

The Hammer of Thor
Magnus mentions that Annabeth told him about the Greek gods of New York. Later, Annabeth responds to a message send by Magnus through a raven and they meet up at New London, Connecticut. Magnus asks Annabeth advice about traveling through the oceans and she responds by saying it is time for Magnus to meet Percy Jackson, her boyfriend.

The Ship of the Dead

The Burning Maze
Grover mentioned Annabeth when ordering Plan Twenty-Three to escape Macro’s Military Madness alive.

Personality
Annabeth loves architecture, and spends her free time designing new buildings and visiting national monuments. Her fatal flaw is hubris, otherwise known as excessive pride: she thinks she can do anything and do it well, even better than the gods. Percy gains insight into this flaw during The Sea of Monsters, when he sees Annabeth's vision as she listens to the song of the Sirens.

Annabeth can be very caring but possessive of the people she loves. For example, she is very anxious of losing Percy to another girl like Rachel or Calypso. She hardly ever shows her true feelings, when worried or upset she often disguises it with anger. Assuming that Percy is dead in The Battle of the Labyrinth, she speaks to the crowd, saying, "He was probably the bravest friend I ever had." Yet when Percy emerged, and Annabeth figures out that he was recuperating on Calypso's island, she calls him the "single most annoying person I've ever met!" She is also not quick to give up on those she cares about. Even after learning Luke was a traitor in The Lightning Thief, she never completely stops caring about him, even quickly taking the sky from him in The Titan's Curse, to save him from death.

Though she is very caring she can be harsh and judgmental during first meetings, but after winning her approval she is very loyal. Though she has matured over time and become less so, becoming more friendly with new people she meets in the process. She is very strong-minded and equally stubborn, she is also incredibly brave and daring. Annabeth shows many signs of dauntlessness, courage and determination. One of her most impressive displays was in The Titan's Curse, where after holding the sky for hours and starting to die, she vehemently protested against Artemis taking her burden.

She has a lot of nerve. Annabeth is also an intellectual genius, as well as clever and witty. She's also analytical, strategic, and is very wise. However she is also very arrogant and proud. Which can get her in trouble sometimes, like in The Battle of Labyrinth when she stood up and said the "riddles"  that Sphinx gave her are insults of her intelligence, though she knew that refusing to answer the riddles can result in her and her companions' lives.

Since Percy left her for months, Annabeth has become reckless when a situation concerns him and she has also developed a fear of losing him to death or being separated from him for a long time. She is greatly relieved when seeing him but that quickly turns to anger with her judo-flipping him and threatening him to never leave her again.

Fatal Flaw
Annabeth's fatal flaw is hubris, or deadly pride or arrogance. Annabeth believes that she is able to do anything: get her parents back together, build great monuments, and save Luke as shown in The Sea of Monsters. She sometimes even thinks she could rebuild the world, even better than how the gods did it. She explains this to Percy in The Sea of Monsters, while they try to escape the Sirens. When Percy thinks that a world run by him would be terrible, Annabeth says he is lucky he doesn't have hubris, because she knows it is a really dangerous fatal flaw.

An evidence of how her hubris can be a hindrance (at best) is seen during her confrontation with the Sphinx where Annabeth was forced to answer several random questions from her. Despite answering all correctly, Annabeth notices that none of these questions are riddles, just random trivia. When Annabeth demands a true challenge of her intelligence, Sphinx attacks her.

In The Mark of Athena, Annabeth's arrogance leads her to mock Arachne after the weaver had already been captured. However, her insult toward Arachne leads Arachne to thrash about in her prison, causing the floor of her layer to crack and break, weakening the already fragile structures. This ultimately causes both Annabeth and Percy to fall into Tartarus, along with Arachne.

Fears
Like all other half-blood children of Athena, Annabeth has immense arachnophobia, freezing up just when she sees a spider or anything bearing a close resemblance to one, as she demonstrated in The Battle of the Labyrinth, when the metal spider leading to Hephaestus' forge pops up. This fear is caused by Athena's bad history with Arachne, the mother of spiders. In ancient times, Arachne, a mortal girl who was well known for her weaving skills, challenged Athena to see who could make the best tapestry. Athena, already full of hatred towards the girl's audacity, accepted the challenge, and both goddess and mortal wove a tapestry. Athena's tapestry was of the gods punishing mortals for being too full of pride, while Arachne's tapestry ridiculed the gods. Both works were equal in beauty, but Athena could not stand the insult towards the Olympians, and destroyed Arachne's tapestry and transformed her into a spider. Ever since then, Athena's children have been paranoid that every spider they see is out to get them - which is largely true. According to Annabeth, spiders are unusually aggressive to children of Athena. In The Demigod Files, inside her trunk is a bottle of anti-spider bug spray. In The Lightning Thief, Percy says that she was "screaming her head off" when they were in the Thrill Ride O' Love (Waterland's version of The Tunnel of Love) ride to get Ares' shield. In the same book, Annabeth stated that any spider within the radius of one mile would be able to find her. In the Mark of Athena, Annabeth used her 'Chinese spidercuffs' to defeat Arachne, but it resulted in sending them both into Tartarus, along with Percy. When Annabeth was young, the spiders would attack her at night, and hide again when it was morning. Her stepmother would never believe her, thinking that the cobwebs were some sort of clever trick.

Annabeth is also scared of Cyclopes because of an event in her childhood when Luke, Thalia, Grover, and herself were trapped by one when trying to make it to camp. Grover led them into an abandoned mansion and then the Cyclopes separated them, using a loved one's voice to lure each person into a trap. The Cyclopes used Luke's voice for Thalia, and Annabeth's voice for Luke. Annabeth states that when she found Luke, Thalia, and Grover, they were tied up and hanging from the ceiling. The Cyclopes used a variety of her friends' voice to try and lure her out into the open, using her father's voice when he finally located her. She stabbed it in the foot in the end, and untied Thalia, who took it from there. She also says that she still has nightmares about the Cyclopes's voice. She finds it very creepy when a Cyclops mimics another person's voice such as when Tyson mimics the voices he hears on the Princess Andromeda. Though not as scared of Cyclopes as she is of spiders, it still takes her most of The Sea of Monsters to be able to get close to Tyson, even though he helped her a lot throughout the book.

Appearance
Annabeth has long, curly blond hair "like a princess." Percy said that she "looked like a typical California girl, except her stormy gray eyes ruined the image." Percy claimed her eyes looked calculating like she was analyzing whoever she was looking at during a first meeting, as if thinking of the best way to take the person down in a fight. According to Magnus, however, Annabeth's gaze instead looks like she’d chosen a target in the distance and was going to march over and destroy it. Jason Grace also described Annabeth's eyes were like calculating a million things at one time, and when he entered the Rec Room for the Counselor Meeting, he said that Annabeth had "an expectant look, as if she were trying to extract information out of him by sheer willpower."

Despite being taller than Percy originally, she is now shorter than him, standing at about 5'8 while Percy stands around 6'0.

She has tanned skin, a great figure, and apparently looks very athletic. She often wears a ponytail, her magical Yankee cap (though only in a fight, since it turns herself invisible) and/or her orange Camp Half-Blood t-shirt. Percy Jackson once claimed in The Demigod Files that "most people can't look cute in full Greek armor.

As revealed in The Mark of Athena, despite not being born in the usual way (being a "brain child" of Athena), Annabeth still does have a belly button.

By The Hammer of Thor Annabeth has started growing out her hair, and the way it caught in the sunlight briefly reminded Magnus of Sif.

Love Interests
Percy Jackson= "As long as we're together."

- Annabeth to Percy as they fall into Tartarus



The growing relationship between Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase plays an important role in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, as well as the relationship between Annabeth, Percy, and Luke Castellan. Luke is Annabeth's hero and one of her first half-blood friends. Annabeth likes Percy, which she hints at, but she still has lingering feelings of kinship towards Luke. At the end of The Last Olympian, Luke shows some feelings for her, like when he asks Annabeth if she loved him. She told him that he was "like a brother to her," but she didn't love him; to which he nodded like he expected it. These feeling are present despite the fact that Luke and Percy are arch enemies and he has attempted to kill Percy numerous times.

In the beginning of The Lightning Thief, Annabeth first meets Percy after he defeats the Minotaur and collapses outside the camp boarder. Seeing this she has hopes that he is "the one" desitined to take her on her first quest. Although after Percy makes a fool of himself to the Hermes cabin she decies he cant be it and yells at him for it. She was shown to be very aloof and cold towards Percy at first, (in [Mark of Athena] Annabeth admits that she disliked Percy atfirst because she found him annoying) which only became worse after finding out his father was Poseidon (her mothers rival). However Annabeth began to open up alittle to Percy during their quest, especially after Percy helped her escape from mechanical spiders. Following this and opening up about their personal lives Annabeth fully resolved that she considered Percy a friend and was even willing to sacrifice herself to allow him and his mother to leave the underworld. Despite this she still doesnt like to show her feelings outright. At the very end of The Sea of Monsters, Annabeth kisses Percy on the cheek after they win the chariot race.

In The Titan's Curse, there are suggestions of some romance between Annabeth and Percy, although this is complicated by her continuing belief in Luke and the fact that her mother, Athena, disapproves of her "relationship" with Percy and tells Percy this face to face after the vote to have him destroyed. When asked if they would allow Percy to live, Athena was one of the gods who didn't raise their hands (majority ruled, but it is unknown if she would have voted to have him destroyed as Zeus never asked) and had told the other gods that keeping him alive was dangerous, something that caused Annabeth to become aggravated with her mother.

In The Battle of the Labyrinth, Annabeth finally expresses her feelings for Percy by kissing him good luck before she vanishes using her magic Yankee's cap. When Percy returns, she is extremely jealous, because she suspects he has been with Calypso, who is cursed to fall in love with any hero that lands on her phantom island, Ogygia.

In The Demigod Files, Annabeth asked Percy to the Fourth of July fireworks which is "the biggest dating event of the summer." During her interview Annabeth states that Percy is courageous, has a sense of humor, and is good-looking ("but don't you dare tell him I said that"). She also says that he's oblivious to how people feel even when it is totally obvious, although she tries (and fails) to hide what she is really talking about.

In The Last Olympian, Annabeth is angry at Percy for hanging out with Rachel. She calls him a coward and tells him to go on the vacation with Rachel. Later, Annabeth states Percy looks "cute when he's worried" when he first checks on her after she took a knife that was meant for him. When he asks her why she did it, even though he is invincible, she admits she didn't know why she did it, only saying she had a feeling he was in danger. Percy trusts her to tell her where his Achilles heel is, his only weak spot. It was also Annabeth that tied him to the mortal world.

After the defeat of Kronos and the saving of Luke's soul, the romantic relationship between Percy and Annabeth is solidified. Annabeth confides to Luke as he dies that she always saw him as a brother, but never loved him. When Percy was offered immortality by the Olympians (actually by Zeus himself and voted for by the rest of the gods), Percy saw that Annabeth was very pale, and he suspected she was having a panic similar to the one he had when he thought she was going to join the Hunters of Artemis. Later, she and Percy share their third kiss after he tries to tell her how he feels about her and tells him that she will never make things easy for him. He describes it as if "[he] had the feeling [his] brain was melting right through [his] body." But a raid of campers led by Clarisse La Rue snoop on this and throw them into the camp lake. Then comes to a fourth kiss underwater in an air bubble made by Percy under the surface of the lake who says it was 'the best underwater kiss of all time' because "When you're the son of Poseidon, you don't have to hurry." They are together as of the end of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. It is hinted that they might be married one day in the future as Annabeth said she wanted "to build something permanent," and Percy states that maybe they were "getting a good start together."

In The Lost Hero, it is said that Percy and Annabeth are still dating. Percy goes missing for three days and Annabeth becomes very worried. Annabeth starts getting visions that telling her to go to the Grand Canyon to find someone with one shoe. Annabeth thought that person would be Percy, her boyfriend, but instead it was Jason Grace, son of Jupiter, Zeus' Roman counterpart. She gets mad at him because she wants to find Percy instead. She yells at the sky saying,"What do you want from me? What have you done with him?" At the end of the book, it is revealed that Percy and Jason are switched because they are both war leaders of each camp, much to Annabeth's dismay. She says that she will join Jason, Piper McLean, and Leo Valdez on their next quest to go to Camp Jupiter to look for Percy and find the other possible demigods (the Roman ones who should be on the quest to cooperate with the Greek demigods against the Giants and the earth goddess Gaea on the War against the Giants and Gaea) to save the Olympian gods original home of Mount Olympus, the actual mountain sitting in Greece and the Olympian gods' elder roots.

In The Demigod Diaries, Percy and Annabeth celebrate their one-month anniversary in Paris after they rescued George and Martha from Cacus. As a reward for rescuing them, Hermes teleported them to Paris, where they enjoy a dinner, a walk, and a boat ride.

In The Son of Neptune, Annabeth is the only thing Percy remembers from his past. When he is running from the gorgons and he sees San Francisco, it reminds him of Annabeth. Before he leaves on the quest to free Thanatos, he dreams of Annabeth and she tells him to stay put because Tyson and Mrs. O'Leary are close. He also remembers that she kissed him whenever he did something stupid. He later mentions that she must have kissed him a lot - also hinting that he did stupid stuff a lot too. He also remembers the kiss underwater, at the canoe lake.

In The Mark of Athena, Annabeth appears to be nervous and excited to meet Percy, and she feels she is becoming reckless about her decisions as she is desperate to meet him. It is revealed that she had secretly harbored a crush on him since they were twelve years old, but only last summer had she properly fell for him. Annabeth thinks that her feelings for him seemed to have grown more "painfully intense". Annabeth tells Percy that she loves him, and has a fear of losing him completely and that they need to be together to be truly happy, as she is only at home with Percy.

In The House of Hades, Annabeth and Percy go through the most difficult challenges they have ever faced in their demigod lives, as they journey through the punishments of Tartarus. However, through the challenges and difficulties they faced, Annabeth and Percy's relationship have become stronger. Annabeth even thinks of having children in the future as she promised Iapetus and Damasen that she will tell their stories and goodwill to "our" children. It is highly likely that the "our' refers to both Percy's and her children, and that she sees a possible marriage and motherhood life with Percy.

In The Blood of Olympus, Annabeth and Percy's relationship remains stable.They get ready for New Rome's college and a life there together.

"He came under a flag of truce. He said he only wanted five minutes to talk. He looked scared, Percy. He told me Kronos was going to use him to take over the world. He said he wanted to run away, like the old days. He wanted me to come with him."

- Annabeth talking about Luke



The relationship between Luke and Annabeth becomes a constant source of conflict between her and Percy. Annabeth started to like Luke when he gave her his knife on the streets. During the events of The Lightning Thief, before Percy and Annabeth began to develop feelings for each other, Annabeth introduces Luke to Percy and acts shy around him. When Grover, Annabeth, and Percy sent an Iris message to camp, Luke appears on the other side of the rainbow and Annabeth immediately tries to clean herself off and begins to mess with her hair. After Luke betrays the camp and almost kills Percy, she takes it very hard.

It wasn’t until The Sea of Monsters that she and Luke meet again on his cruise ship. He offers her a place in the Titan army and says that if Thalia were alive, she would have joined his side too. When Annabeth refuses, she escapes and leads Percy to a secret hideout, revealing how she met Luke and the promise that he and Thalia would be her new family.

During the events of the next few books, Annabeth begins to show feelings for Percy, but every time Percy brings up the fact that they have to stop Luke, Annabeth would always defend him. Even during the events of The Titan's Curse when Percy believed that Luke was dead, Annabeth had a feeling that he wasn’t. In The Battle of the Labyrinth, Percy believes that Luke has become completely lost to them after forcing Percy to fight another demigod and almost kills Annabeth and Rachel Elizabeth Dare. When he makes off handed remarks after they escape about how evil Luke has become, this greatly upsets Annabeth and she begins to yell at Percy for being so cold.

During the Battle of Manhattan, Luke asks Annabeth whether she ever loved him while taking her hand. Percy looks at her, "drinking in the fact that she was still there" and Annabeth tells Luke "You were like a brother to me, Luke, but I didn't love you." Luke just nods, having expected this, and dies moments later.

In The Lost Hero, Jason says after Annabeth tells him about the pictures on the wall next to Thalia's bed, in Zeus' cabin, that maybe Percy wasn't the only boy Annabeth liked. "Family, Luke. You promised."

Friends
Grover= Grover Underwood is one of Annabeth's closest friends, helping her get to Camp Half-Blood when she was only a child. They remained friends throughout their relationship, and fought together often. Grover usually showed his concern for her, too. In the end of The Last Olympian when Percy is fighting Luke, it is shown that Grover is holding Annabeth to protect her.

Annabeth is best friends with Thalia, first meeting her when she was seven and had run away from home. After Thalia sacrificed herself, to save her, Luke, and Grover her respect grew. Thalia's father, Zeus, transformed her into a pine tree to save her from death after she sacrificed herself. Thalia returned with the magical powers of the Golden Fleece and Annabeth re-established their close friendship, for example, attending the same school together in The Titan's Curse.
 * -|Thalia=

Annabeth was jealous of Rachel, partly because Percy would hang out with her whenever he needed an escape from camp, but also because of the feelings that both girls had for Percy. When the two meet, Annabeth treated Rachel with hostility, not wanting to admit that she needed help on her quest, especially from a mortal girl. The two eventually start to connect because of their mutual problems with their parents. While still disliking Rachel mostly for her relationship with Percy, Annabeth still went out of her way to save Rachel from a falling helicopter.
 * -|Rachel=

After a while she starts to like her a little more, once she realizes Percy and Rachel are only friends, even giving the two some time alone to say goodbye they dropped her off after exiting the Labyrinth. After Rachel became the new Oracle of Delphi, Annabeth and her start to become much better friends as the Oracle is prohibited from dating anybody. Eventually, the two become very good friends, as shown in The Lost Hero.

Annabeth and Piper McLean seem to get along very well, despite their parents' differences. Piper states that Annabeth would make a cool friend in better times. Before being claimed, Piper hoped that her mom was Athena because Annabeth is a good friend and it would be cool to have her as a sister, something that Annabeth reciprocates, as said to her by Rachel Elizabeth Dare. Their friendship deepens in The Mark of Athena with Piper saying that she "had never had a better friend" while referring to Annabeth. They even have their own inside joke, where the two will steal the other's breakfast.
 * -|Piper=

Jason Grace and Annabeth have a somewhat difficult relationship. When they first meet at the Grand Canyon, Annabeth treated him with hostility because she was hoping her boyfriend would be there. After calming down, she treats Jason as more of a problem waiting to be solved, as he has no memory of his past. Before leaving to search for Percy again, she tells Jason a bit about Thalia, the other child of Zeus. After remembering that Thalia is his sister, Jason confides in her that they are related, something he isn't sure Annabeth completely believes. Later, Jason and Annabeth both figure out that Percy is at Camp Jupiter and could be in danger, so Jason allows her to come with them on the Argo II.
 * -|Jason=

By the time the Argo II sailed for Camp Jupiter, Annabeth is still a bit distrusting of Jason, feeling that the trip to the Roman camp could be some kind of trap. She also feels that he is too perfect, as he always acts nobly, does the honorable thing, and even looks too perfect. Some of her dislike of him also comes from the constant reminder of how much she misses Percy. But as the Mark of Athena went further, Piper couldn't help but notice Jason and Annabeth are too similar. When Annabeth falls to Tartarus, Jason regrets not flying back earlier to help her.

However they have grown close since then as Annabeth cried when she found out he died.

Annabeth and Leo Valdez spent a lot of time together working on the Argo II, and became closer. They bonded over engineering and machinery. Annabeth is the only person, other than Leo, who can operate the engine room. Annabeth is often shown to be in awe of Leo's skills with building. Annabeth is also the person that made Leo change his mind about blondes, and in fact actually scares Leo to a certain degree. Leo blamed himself for Annabeth's fall into Tartarus, and showed how much he cared for her.
 * -|Leo=

Though there have not been many interactions between Annabeth and Frank, it is shown that Annabeth finds him sweet. When Leo teased him about Chinese handcuffs, he went to Annabeth for help in trying to figure out how to beat them. Annabeth later used his advice to help her defeat Arachne.
 * -|Frank=

At first, Reyna resented Percy and Annabeth for unleashing the pirates that destroyed her home, and made a move on Percy, only to be turned down because of Annabeth. However, the two share many similarities and eventually set aside their differences and grew close.
 * -|Reyna=

It is believed by Sally Jackson that Annabeth is the most levelheaded demigod to ever to hit the eighth grade. She also believes that she keeps Percy from getting killed. Percy secretly admits to this statement. In The Mark of Athena, Annabeth mentions often visiting Sally to keep both their hopes up that somewhere, Percy is still alive. Annabeth mentions crying together, hinting that the two of them grew close in a trying time.
 * -|Sally Jackson=

Chiron is a close friend and advisor to Annabeth. She has stayed under his care at Camp Half-Blood for almost ten years, and the two have a mutual bond of trust between each other. Chiron shares all his secrets with Annabeth, which is why she is somewhat offended when he refuses to tell her about Camp Jupiter in the The Lost Hero.
 * -|Chiron =

Family
Mortal Family= Annabeth has had several issues with her mortal family. Because of her status as a demigod attracting monsters and knowing that her father had been reluctant to take her in as a baby Annabeth felt that her mortal family hated her. Which resulted in her running way from home at the age of seven and became a year-rounder at camp. While talking to Percy in The Lightning Thief Annabeth told Percy that if it was her dad imprisoned by Hades she would leave him to rot. Although after encouragement from Percy and remembering how her dad wrote a letter asking her to give him another chance she decided to go back to them for the school year. After some time, she reestablished contact, and occasionally met with them. They tried to make it work three times, with the third one finally working out for the most. Around The Titan's Curse, it seems her relationship with them is getting better, especially after her father and step-mother showed that they do care for her by helping Percy, Grover and Zoe find her. By The Last Olympian she seems to be living with them again (though, this is not for certain because she is going to go to a school in New York near Percy's, and her family lives in San Francisco).

Annabeth seemed to have good relationship with Magnus in the end of The Sword of Summer. The last time they saw each other was when they were six at a family reunion. They would later meet again after Magnus's first death in the mortal world. Annabeth was shocked, yet exuberant to see her cousin alive again, and was quick to offer him some assistance, after realizing his demigod status. In the The Lightning Thief, Annabeth states that she had been to Olympus with some other campers (Luke Castellan and Clarisse La Rue) at the solstice. Athena also gave Annabeth the invisible Yankees cap as a twelfth birthday present. Annabeth has a close relationship with her mother, despite meeting her very little (perhaps attributed to her poor relationships with ehr other family members). Annabeth held her mother in very high regard, often trying to follow her example. Part of the reason she disliked Percy when they first met was because she felt that they should hate each other because their parents do. She would often carry out her actions in accordance to what she thinks Athena would do, stating "Athena always has a plan". Though she later decided she liked Percy enough to be his friend regardless of what her mother would think.
 * -|Magnus=
 * -|Athena=

Her mother trusts her and seems to see Annabeth as her pride and joy. They seem to discuss many things and have a set of plans in preparation for any catastrophe. Athena made Annabeth the new architect of Olympus after the damage caused during the Battle of Manhattan. She disapproves of her relationship with Percy, and even claims that keeping him alive would be dangerous to the gods, much to the grief of her daughter. She seems to have accepted it in the end, though reluctantly and even helped Percy to escape Hoover Dam without Annabeth's knowledge in The Titan's Curse.

In Mark of Athena, when Annabeth met her mother in her Roman form, she pleaded with her mother to help her find Percy, but her mother refused as she hated the Romans and felt that if Percy had joined them then he should die too. This argument resulted in Annabeth's invisibility cap loosing its power for a time.

Though they still love each other, Annabeth's unwavering devotion to Percy caused a rift between her and her mother. Annabeth appears to have a good relationship with Malcolm, her half-brother, as he is her second-in-command for Cabin 6.
 * -|Malcolm=

Gods and Goddesses
Dionysus= Dionysus often got Annabeth's name wrong, replacing her name with names such as "Annie Bell" and seemed to care very little for her, despite being her camp director. Dionysus does this with many other campers.

Annabeth respects Artemis, and one point Annabeth had considered joining the hunt but decided against it, because she didn't want to swear off boys forever. Artemis does not seem to hold ill will to her from this choice, however. In the Demigod Files, Annabeth is asked who the wisest god/goddess is apart from her mom and she states, "I've always admired Artemis, too... She spends more time in the mortal world than most gods, too, so she understands what's going on. She doesn't understand guys, though. I guess nobody's perfect."
 * -|Artemis=

Annabeth hasn't spoken to Poseidon directly, but in The Lightning Thief when talking about him with Percy she expressed very little respect for him as his mothers rival. She also felt that she should dislike him and his children due to his rivalry with Athena, though she seemed to have lost this over time. In part due to her friendship/romance with Percy.
 * -|Poseidon=

Unlike Athena, Poseidon has not shown any ill will to his son's relationship with her. In fact, he may even support it considering her and Percy's third kiss was in his domain.

Annabeth has a terrible relationship with Hera. In The Battle of the Labyrinth, she helps Annabeth and her companions in their quest many times. However, at the end of the book Annabeth accuses her of wanting perfect families and not caring about their 'imperfect' family members. This enrages Hera who curses her after this, sending "intestinally challenged cows" after her. She tries to injure Annabeth with her statue at Olympus though ends up trapping her stepdaughter Thalia. In The Lost Hero, Annabeth does not seem to care if Hera is killed or imprisoned forever; she believes that it is a favor for them and that Hera is getting what she deserves (and this resentment towards Hera may have increased from the "gamble" Hera made by sending Percy to the other camp, with possibly no memory of her whatsoever).
 * -|Hera=

The Hunters of Artemis
Annabeth was very close to joining the Hunters when she was a kid. This is known when Grover finds a brochure about the Hunt in her backpack, and Thalia states: "Annabeth wanted to join the Hunters. Maybe you should think about why." Another possible hint was when Percy and Annabeth were dancing in the military school, they are talking about her problems of moving to San Francisco. She says, "It's more serious than that. Percy I...I should probably tell you something." This could possibly mean that she was going to join the hunt to escape monsters and her problems. But in the end, she decides against it, and in her interview in The Demigod Files, when asked about what other god she thought on the Olympian council was wise, she begins talking about Artemis. She says, "She doesn't understand guys, though. I guess nobody's perfect."

The Lightning Thief


Annabeth is portrayed by Alexandra Daddario. Unlike the books, Annabeth has brown hair instead of blonde and blue eyes instead of gray.

In the film, Annabeth is seen at Camp Half-Blood after Percy's battle with the Minotaur, fighting several campers at once and beating them all during a camp tradition of Capture the Flag. She later takes on Percy during a game of Capture the Flag and very easily defeats him, until he goes to the water (the camp stream) to heal himself, which he then proceeds to fight her more forcefully and successfully disarms her. Later, Annabeth decides to go on the quest with Percy and Grover.



During the quest, Medusa specifically wants to kill her because her mother, Athena, cursed her. Grover saves Annabeth while Percy distracts Medusa; she drives the car that knocks Medusa to the ground to give Percy time to escape and behead her with his celestial bronze sword, Riptide. Then, after securing Medusa's head for potential further use, Percy and Annabeth have a conversation by a motel pool the night before assaulting the replica of the Parthenon in Nashville, Tennessee.

They discuss their parents and the conversation seems to be heading towards even more personal subjects, but Grover interrupts them. Annabeth heads to the Underworld with Percy and Grover, then to Mount Olympus where she sees Luke's betrayal for herself. On Olympus, Annabeth meets her mother for the first time. It is assumed that this was one of her lifelong wishes. She is a formidable fighter and shows her book counterpart's ability to react to events that happened in Greek mythology, such as warning Percy about the Hydra in the fight in Nashville (which was in the guise of the replica Parthenon's janitors) and the story of Hercules and Hermes going to the Underworld.

The Sea of Monsters
Alexandra Daddario reprises her role as Annabeth Chase (also played by Alisha Newton in a flashback) in The Lightning Thief's 2013 sequel Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters. The actress had chosen to dye her hair blonde for the role due to the demands of the fans and the desire to be loyal to the original book series. The film opens with a flashback following young Annabeth, Grover, Luke, and their friend Thalia Grace running towards Camp Half-Blood while being pursued by monsters. The group halts to a panicked stop when a tree falls on Grover, trapping his leg underneath. Thalia sacrifices herself for the protection of her friends as she meets her demise by holding off the monsters. Young Annabeth and her friends witness Thalia's growth into a tree and the creation of the invisible borders around the camp created by Zeus.

Cutting to a new scene set present day, Annabeth is cheering on Percy Jackson in his competition against Clarisse La Rue. Percy almost reaches his objective and wins the tournament when he spots another fellow camper in need of help and Annabeth watches as his fatal flaw takes over and he chooses helping out a friend over winning. She and Grover, who had been betting on Percy, rush over to help Percy when he is knocked out. Following his defeat, Clarisse brags about her performance and calls Percy's last quest a stroke of luck. Annabeth and Grover defend him against her taunts and attempt to console him afterwards when he begins to doubt himself. Mr. Dionysus, the god of wine and camp director, and Chiron investigate into the case of a Cyclops somehow making its way through the Camp barriers who is revealed to be Tyson, Percy's half-brother. Upon this discovery, Annabeth treats Tyson with immediate dislike and apprehension.

The campers tease Percy and Tyson, with Annabeth sitting nearby with the Athena campers, when the camp is attacked by a Colchis Bull. Annabeth tag teams with Percy, ordering him to distract the bull while she stabs it. The plan quickly falls apart when it does minimal damage and Annabeth flees the scene. Percy finally defeats the monster with the help of Grover, Annabeth, and Clarisse. Luke Castellan confronts Percy who tries to persuade Percy to align with him. Percy declines the offer and Luke disappears. Meeting with the rest of the camp at Thalia's tree, they declare that Thalia's Tree has been poisoned. Annabeth questions who would do such a thing when Percy announces it was Luke's plan to poison the tree. Annabeth, relieved by her friends appearance and confirmed safety, runs up and hugs him while the campers realize that with Thalia's Tree poisoned it has left the camp and its campers vulnerable to future attacks. Questioning a prophecy that Luke had mentioned earlier in their meeting, Percy visits the Oracle for answers while Annabeth proposes a quest to Mr. D to search for The Golden Fleece, the only object capable of restoring Thalia's Tree. Dionysus originally shoots down the quest idea but announces it later that night, appointing Clarisse to lead it much to Annabeth's dismay and annoyance.

Grover and Annabeth are convinced by Percy to head out and look for the Fleece. The group is accompanied by Tyson despite Annabeth's protests. Realizing that Tyson's eye would be a problem for the group, she sprays Mist on him in order to create the illusion that he has two eyes instead of one. Hailing the Taxi of Damnation, the four of them are ejected from the cab in Washington DC, but not before Percy receives the coordinates for the Sea of Monsters by threatening them with their one eye.

Grover is kidnapped by Chris Rodriguez and friends although Annabeth, Percy, and Tyson attempt to foil the attack and get him back. With Grover gone, the three of them are dejected before Annabeth leads them to Hermes who offers them a thermos that releases the wind from the four corners of the Earth and a magical box sealer that can make anything disappear when taped around any border. George and Martha, two snakes on Hermes staff, give the trio information about Luke's whereabouts, including that he's currently settled on the Princess Andromeda. Tyson asks Poseidon for assistance across the water to get to Luke's yacht and is answered by the arrival of a hippocampus. Percy hesitates, disappointed with his own lack of response from Poseidon whenever he attempts to communicate with him. Annabeth encourages Percy to get on the hippocampi and he does, the two sharing a smile as she glides her hand through the water and looks back at him.

Annabeth is captured along with Percy and Tyson when they find their way onto the yacht where they find out about Luke's plan to resurrect Kronos and destroy Olympus. Annabeth voices Luke about her disappointment in him and his plans to destroy the gods after what Thalia had sacrificed for them. Luke's anger is mutual, not being able to understand why Annabeth would be siding with the gods. The three of them are held in the brig where Annabeth becomes suspicious of Tyson's involvement in their capture. Percy watches as Annabeth holds a piece of Thalia's Tree in her hand and looks over it worriedly. Percy frees them using the magical box sealer by putting the tape over the cell door, retrieved by Annabeth who snatched the bag as Percy manipulated the strength of the waves to knock it over and towards her. The group fights through Luke's men and a manticore to a boat where Annabeth uncaps the thermos to aid in their getaway.

Percy lets Tyson take over driving the boat with the thermos while he sits on the end with Annabeth. She admits that she wouldn't have let Tyson do it if she were Percy. Percy asks her why she hates Tyson so much and Annabeth reveals that it was a Cyclops that had killed Thalia and she hasn't been able to trust one ever since then. The boat is then consumed by Charybdis after Tyson loses the thermos and they discover that Clarisse and her crew has already been sucked in on their travels. Clarisse and Percy work together to concoct a plan to escape the monsters stomach, Annabeth and Tyson wishing Percy luck. The group escapes the monster and they arrive at Circle Island, Polyphemus's lair.

Annabeth helps defeat Polyphemus and is surprised by Luke's arrival who demands the fleece from the group. Luke fires a crossbow at Percy who refused to hand over the fleece but it is Tyson who purposely takes the shot for Percy and falls down to the water below. Following Tyson's death, the four are tied up to posts as they watch Luke use the fleece to begin reviving Kronos. Percy, feeling the situation is hopeless, gives up before Annabeth gives him a pep talk and tells him to create his own destiny instead of thinking about what the Oracle prophesied. Percy uncaps Riptide in order to untie Grover from his post and Percy runs off to fight Luke as the rest of them are left to fight Luke's men.

Distracted by Tyson's reappearance, who explains that since he is a descendant from Poseidon the water healed his wounds, the fleece resurrects Kronos and the five of them work together to defeat him. Luke and Grover are captured by Kronos and swallowed, emitting a shocked reaction from Annabeth and Clarisse. Percy, remembering the lines from the prophecy ('cursed blade shall reap'), uses Riptide to slay the Titan and the others erupt in cheers over the victory. Luke and Grover were then spit out by Kronos during his defeat, Luke falling into Polyphemus's lair. Annabeth, happy about the demise of the Titan, is stabbed from the back by the Manticore who is later killed by Grover and Clarisse. Percy holds Annabeth in his arms as her friends look over her body in tears as she dies but is later brought back when Percy wraps her in the Fleece.

Returning to Camp Half-Blood, Percy and his friends watch as Clarisse is given the honors to return the Fleece to Thalia's Tree and regain the tree's strength and the borders. All is well around the camp, with the campers celebrating their victory, until Grover runs up to Percy during a meal and warns him about something big happening. Percy, worried for Annabeth's safety since she was on duty, runs to the Thalia's Tree and is told by Annabeth that the Fleece had worked "too well". They inspect the tree and watch as Thalia regains her human form and is awaken. Confused, Thalia introduces herself as the daughter of Zeus. The movie ends with a voiceover from Percy talking about how Thalia's relation to one of the Big Three could change everything since he might not be the hero talked about in the prophecy.

Video Game
Annabeth is one of the main characters in the video game. Her attacks are mostly accurate Physical attacks. She also has a move that greatly increases Teamwork. She has no resistance or vulnerability to any type of moves.

Etymology
Annabeth is a variant of the Hebrew name, Anna, and the name means "God has favored me" as this could possibly been seen as Athena, her mother, very much favors her daughter, seeing her as the pride and joy of her children.Her first name, 'Annabeth' is also an anagram of 'Athena' with a few extra letters which are N and B The third syllable of her name, Beth, is a common shortened form of another Hebrew name, Elizabeth, which means "my God is an oath" or perhaps "my God is abundance". Beth can also be a nickname for Bethany, a female name first used as a the name of a town in the Christian Bible, which is believed to mean "house of figs".

When Rick Riordan chose the name Annabeth, he modeled Annabeth after Atalanta who was a great Greek heroine and who was described as having blond hair and fierce eyes.

Chase is a Middle English surname, the occupational name for a hunter. In Middle English, the word "chase" means "hunt." This may come from that she almost decided to join the Hunters of Artemis.

 * Annabeth is the only known demigod to have family with connections to the other pantheons. Her cousin Magnus is the son of the Norse god Frey.
 * When teaming up with Carter and Sadie Kane against Setne, Annabeth volunteered to host the goddess Nekhbet instead of Percy. However, Nekhbet found Annabeth unsuitable due to her more complicated mind whereas Percy had a simpler mind.
 * In the film adaptation of The Lightning Thief, Annabeth has brown hair, which came under heavy controversy from fans, which led to the actress dying her hair blonde for the film's sequel. Ironically, in The Mark of Athena, Annabeth states that she wishes she had brown hair, as she believed that people would take her more seriously if her hair wasn't blonde.
 * Circe's offer to help her realize her potential in magic alludes to Athena (and more often Minerva) being recognized as a Goddess of magic by some cults.
 * According to the the Magnus Chase series, Annabeth has Swedish ancestry on her father's side.
 * Annabeth could be a legacy of Frey. In The Hammer of Thor Loki mentions that the sword Skofnung can only be wielded by the descendants of Swedish nobility, an act that her uncle was able to do. In The Sword of Summer Gunilla mentions that the kings of Sweden were descendants of Frey. Assuming that at least one of his noble ancestors was a descendant from Frey's line of the family, Annabeth could be a legacy of Frey.
 * She is good in grabber games in arcades according to Percy in "The Demigod Diaries".
