Connor Stoll

Connor Stoll is a demigod attending Camp Half-Blood and is the co-head counselor for the Hermes cabin, along with his brother Travis Stoll. He is a son of Hermes, and tends to steal things. He has a wicked sense of humor, and plays many practical jokes. They both lead the Hermes cabin in the second war between the Titans and the Gods. They both survive. He is shown to be close to Percy, Annabeth, and Grover more than most of the other campers (along with Beckendorf, Silena and Travis).

The Lightning Thief
Connor does not appear in this book, but in The Sea of Monsters it is mentioned that Percy first met him while they were in the Hermes cabin together.

The Sea of Monsters
Because Luke betrayed the camp, Connor and Travis are now the leaders of the Hermes cabin. Percy says he can never remember who is older, although later in the series it was revealed that Travis is the older sibling. In the chariot races, Travis and Conner man the Hermes chariot. Percy states that he shudders to think what schemes they have cooked up. Unfortunately, right after the race begins, they ram into the Apollo chariot and both chariots flip over.

In the next race, the Stoll brothers attack Clarisse in the Ares Chariot with javelins. They fall behind as Connor has a fierce fight with Clarisse as Travis drives. They end up coming in third, behind Percy's chariot and the Ares chariot

The Titan's Curse
When Percy first arrives at camp, he sees Travis and Connor trying to break into the camp store. In the game of Capture the Flag against the Hunters they are both on defense with Percy and a few others. Unfortunately they both get wounded by the hunter Phoebe and Conner ends up with two arrows in his helmet.

Later, when Chiron calls a meeting, Travis and Conner go to represent the Hermes cabin. Conner remarks that they are facing a lot of danger and he and Travis give Zoe a collector's T-shirt to give to Phoebe. It is later revealed that the T-shirt was sprayed with poisonous centaur blood and that Aphrodite gave it to them so that Percy could go on the quest. Payback!

The Battle of the Labyrinth
When Percy arrives at camp, he sees Connor and Travis in the driveway of the Big House, trying to hot-wire the camp's SUV. In the scorpion war game, they are paired together, which is no surprise, because they do everything together.

They both attend the war council with the other head counselors of the other cabins. They both fight bravely in the Battle of the Labyrinth and both survived.

The Last Olympian
When Percy returns to camp from his mission with Beckendorf, Conner is on lookout duty. He is the first person to see him, and when he does he gets so excited he falls out of his tree and runs to greet him. Although he is happy Percy is alive, his smile fades when he learns of Beckendorf's death. Together they climb the sand dunes to tell the rest of the camp the news.

He and his brother attend the war council that Chiron calls. Neither of them seem to be bothered by the fact that Clarisse isn't speaking to any of them. When Percy mentions that there is a spy, Connor says that they have suspected a spy for years and that it is probably someone who knew Luke well. He glances at Annabeth, but then quickly looks away, stating "It could be anybody".

It is revealed that the Stoll brothers have somewhat of a rivalry with Katie Gardner, the head counselor of the Demeter cabin, ever since they decorated the roof of her cabin with chocolate Easter bunnies. Travis and Connor both get very angry when she suggests that the spy is one of Luke's siblings. Percy suggests that more gods should protect Olympus, but Connor tells Percy that if Typhon reaches Olympus, it wont matter whose guarding it. He later attends Beckendorf's funeral.

He comes along with most of the camp when Percy calls them into the city and they go up to Olympus. Their father, Hermes arrives and is not happy. It is unknown if this was the first time him and Travis met him, but they don't speak to him, and are happy when Annabeth tells them to lead the group into the city, giving them an important job right in front of their dad.

After a while they run back in and show Percy and Annabeth that Morpheus put the entire island of Manhattan to sleep. Both brothers are interested of taking advantage of the sleeping city and raid a candy store, which Katie Gardner scolds them for. Connor takes half of the Hermes cabin and defends the Manhattan Bridge. Most of them survive.

It is Conner who gives Percy the message that Grover has been found. He stays in fairly good shape throughout the battle, not being majorly wounded and continuing to fight throughout the battle, implying he is a decent fighter. After Silena's death, him and Travis ask Percy about her death. He refuses to let her be known as a spy, although they had already heard it. They disscuss the advantage of the elevator and tell him they already tried to disable it, but it is magic and they cant. Connor complanes that there are no more reinforcements, giving Percy the idea to send a message to Nico.

After the battle, Travis and his brother come to olympus and report to Percy that his parents and Chiron are alive. They look kinda worried about their teacher. Connor ultimatly survives and Travis does as well, and they head back to camp to share the duty as the counselors of the much-less-crowded Hermes Cabin. Both brothers were involved on the eavesdropping of Percy and Annabeth and it it Connor who has the idea of throwing them in the lake.

Powers
It is not mentioned what supernatural powers Hermes has, but this much can be gleaned from what he is known for.
 * 1) Hermes is the god of thieves, so Connor might have a supernatural way of stealing things without others noticing.
 * 2) Hermes is the god of speed, travel, roadways and the messenger of the gods. His children might be able to teleport places (Luke did this at the end of the Lightning Theif)

Personality
"They are both so unlike my old enemy Luke that it's hard to believe they're all sons of Hermes"' 

Conner is a fun-loving, mischeivous prankster, but also nice, loyal and brave enough to be willing to fight for Olympus and his father, Hermes. He likes to play pranks also quite a pickpocket. He takes these traits from his father, Hermes, and share them with his brother, Travis. They are seen by Percy trying to pick the lock on the camp store and trying to high-jack the camps SUV. Because of their mischeif making, they are not on good terms with some people. Katie Gardner has had a rivalry with them since they decorated the Demeter's cabin roof with chocolate Easter bunnies. They are also shown to dislike Clarisse (just like everyone else)- but have always gotton along with Percy, who states that they are pretty nice guys but you should always keep one hand on your wallet when they are around and never give them access to shaving cream. Also, Connor appears to be the smarter of the two, while Travis is more mischievous

Appearance
Connor is tall and skinny with a mop of curly brown hair that hangs in his eyes. Like most of the other children of Hermes, he has upturned eyebrows, a sarcastic smile and a gleam in his eyes. He has a crooked smile to match his personality and is a little bit shorter than his brother, Travis, which is the only way people can tell them apart. He is said to be a parody of George Weasley.

Name Etymology
Percy commented on the irony of his last name being Stoll, as in stole, even though he and his brother didn't get the joke. In Polish version of the book, Connor's surname is Hood - reference to The Prince of Thieves - Robin Hood
