Talk:Nico di Angelo

Relationships?
Should Nico have a section on relationships, like about his family and friends? "Trust is something gained, never earned." 16:30, October 22, 2011 (UTC) PJDMAY14

He can, it isnt like he isnt allowed, just no one ever did. It would go right under the Item section. Darkcloud1111 ~Fastest Hero Alive  17:21, October 22, 2011 (UTC)

I wanted to know if it was good idea if he had one, thank you for answering. "Trust is something gained, never earned." 17:50, October 22, 2011 (UTC) PJDMAY14

Comments about Nico's Picture
It is the official Artwork so stop complaining. Darkcloud1111 ~Fastest Hero Alive  00:23, October 19, 2011 (UTC)

Title
Nico is known as "The Ghost King"? I thought he just called himself that... Once. SayuriDarling (talk &bull; contribs) 12:23, October 23, 2011 (UTC)

He's known as that in the Underworld since he is his father's only son (right now anyway). *PJDMAY14 "Trust is something gained, never earned." 22:07, November 26, 2011 (UTC)

I think Nicos picture is pretty awsome looking if you ask me Lesa dauther of athena (talk &bull; contribs) 21:27, November 7, 2011 (UTC)

What is Nico most scared of? (Like Annebeth being scared of spiders and Percy in camp in flames)

~Kingninja42

Since there is no other official artwork, the picture is the best one. however, i agree it doesn't exactly match the description. and it never states what nico is most afraid of, though it is mentioned in the titan's curse that Nico doesn't sleep well at camp, hinting at possible nightmares?

Complaining about Nico's picture: this cannot be the best picture. There are tons and tons of fanart and stuff, that is better than this picture. Nico has dark blackish-brown hair, dark eyes, not that light color there, and paler skin. Also, I think the position of him ruins it. The mouth open is okay, but the swoon makes him look kind of stupid.

We do not allow fanart on this wiki. If you have a problem then please don't bring it up we won't change the rule. Lasciate ogni speranza,voi ch'entrate 23:30, May 24, 2012 (UTC)

Dude, there's one fan art picture of Nico that's just SO HOT. It's funny because the official art is... well... not. I'm not trying to be rude to whoever drew the official art, but it doesn't really look like the discription. In The Battle of the Labyrinth it say's he's tall, skinny, and pale. But the official art isn't really any of those.

Looking up citations to help the camp half-blood wikia.
Lack of Citations in Nico's abilities?

How come the wikia lacks citations on Nico's abilities, such as like what chapter and/or page numbers in each novel he's in to actually read the quotes and other such matters?

Are there any citations in which he can use hellfire, outright?

I don't ever remember Nico using hellfire. Ever. SayuriDarling (talk &bull; contribs) 22:11, November 26, 2011 (UTC)

"'No' Nico shouted louder. GO AWAY!

The ground rumbled beneath me. The skeletons froze.

I rolled out of the way just as a crack opened at the feet of the four warriors. The ground ripped apart like a snapping mouth. Flames erupted from the fissure, and the earth swallowed the skeletons in one loud CRUNCH!" The Titan's Curse, Page 290-291

There is the fire^^ But i don't think he has used it later again... Yourgirlyui (talk &bull; contribs) 20:01, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

The fire came from the Underworld when Nico opened up the Earth, not Nico himself. Darkcloud1111 ~Fastest Hero Alive  22:30, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

Trivia
There is a part on the trivia where says that is known that Nico is older than Hazel, well, tecnically Nico IS older than hazel since he lived in the WWII, and the Casino etc. etc. but still he is most likely (biologically speaking) 13, i mean he was 10 in The titan's curse, 11 in BotL, and 12 in TLO, by logic, and because SoN, is setted almost a year after TLO, we can say he is thirteen nowDafne

Yes, and also, in the SoN, it states when Nico is introduced that he is a "teenage boy", so he must be 13 at the very least. RubyRose is moi! (: &gt;&gt;&gt;TALK with mee. 04:19, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

I am almost positive Nico is fourteen, but there are two different ages he could be, depending on birthdates. "Trust is something gained, never earned." 02:01, December 21, 2011 (UTC) *PJDMAY14

Is Nico really 5'4"? I feel like he would be taller... 68.67.247.100 17:58, December 21, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, he is only... thirteen/fourteen. "Trust is something gained, never earned." 17:29, December 22, 2011 (UTC) *PJDMAY14

Where is that stated? I would like to know. 68.67.247.100 22:13, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

You can tell by how old he was in The Titans Curse. "Trust is something gained, never earned." 15:28, December 24, 2011 (UTC) *PJDMAY14

I mean how tall he is. 68.67.247.100 16:19, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

He's said to be short, I'm not sure where we got the exact height. You might need to ask one of the admins. "Trust is something gained, never earned." 15:05, December 26, 2011 (UTC) *PJDMAY14

Height
It's been eight months. Nico defenitely needs to grow at least one or two inches. Right?

We update things like Height when official information becomes available. Nico's height was listed in one of the companion books I think, but unless they state how tall he has grown in between books (like saying he grew three inches since Percy last saw him), we stick with official information. Darkcloud1111 ~Fastest Hero Alive  21:25, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

Impressionable...
Shouldn't It say in the Personality part at the bottom, that Nico described himself as impressionable, not Percy? That's what I thought it said. Dreamer451 (talk &bull; contribs) 15:44, October 14, 2013 (UTC)\


 * HoH page 293. Yes.  SayuriDarling  ~ “And like the sea, I'm constantly changing from calm to hell.”   16:08, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

Updated with new information
There should be more on the hints.

Nico di angelo is perfecttt (talk &bull; contribs) 23:27, October 18, 2013 (UTC)nico_di_angelo_is_perfecttt

Hints I found so far

i found quite a few in the the last olympian! im gonna re-read son of neptune to see if there are any there.

- Nico avoids Percy after Hazel introduces them. Nico SAYS it's because he can't allow Percy to remember himself too soon. After reading House of Hades, we can now see that Nico is still fighting his feelings - Nico was dropping hints to Hazel about how the war games were going to be interesting. I also suspected that he convinced Reyna to give the team opposing Percy the water cannons. He clearly enjoyed watching Percy fight.

Mark of Athena:

- Annabeth thought that Nico had a crush on her once. Most of us readers thought "When on earth did Nico like Annabeth?" I know I did. Uncle Rick obviously wanted to throw us off track there. - Nico was panicking when Percy was about to fall into Tartarus. He was screaming for help. Nico then promised to lead the Argo II to the doors of death - On the Argo II, Nico told the other demigods aboard that Percy was the most powerful demigod he's ever known.

1) When nico is trying to convince percy to go to the river styx, he repetes a line of the profecy which fortells a demigods death (remember at the time everyone thought it was percy). Nico gets very upset.  *small except not typing the whole thing* "you cant prevent a prophecy" I said. "But you can fight it!" Nico had a strange, hungry look in his eyes. "you can become invincible" "maybe we should wait and try and fight without-" "NO" Nico snarled, "you have to do this". I stared at him. I hadent seen his temper flare like this in a long time.

2) Also when Nico is in distress (lukes mother shaking him) he would call out "Percy!" to come and save him. This is ooc for nico, showing his vulnerability when it comes to percy.

<span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia,Times,'TimesNewRoman',serif;font-size:14px;line-height:18px;">3) Hades notes how "quite sincere" nico was about trying to save percy.

<span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia,Times,'TimesNewRoman',serif;font-size:14px;line-height:18px;">4) Nico flips out when he thinks percy is hurt, his reaction almost ooc <span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia,Times,'TimesNewRoman',serif;font-size:14px;line-height:18px;">"Are you ok?! Your skin. Oh, gods your hurt!" <span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia,Times,'TimesNewRoman',serif;font-size:14px;line-height:18px;">now lets think of nicos personality. This definetly shows how much he cares.

<span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia,Times,'TimesNewRoman',serif;font-size:14px;line-height:18px;">5)Nico is shown to be completely miserable when he believes Percy doesn't trust him anymore. honestly that is the wording. strong reaction from the ghost king!

<span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia,Times,'TimesNewRoman',serif;font-size:14px;line-height:18px;">6) Nico undergoes bulling and torment and possible execution from his father simply for the sake that percy asked him to try and convince hades to help. Its a dangerous task that Nico attacks and trys increadably hard to achive. This shows that Nico cares more about what percy thinks of him than what his own father thinks of him.

<span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia,Times,'TimesNewRoman',serif;font-size:14px;line-height:18px;">Overall nico is shown to care more about percy's welfare and opinion of him being than anything else in the books (except bianca but thats not the point). Ill keep finding more hints- hope this helps!! <span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia,Times,'TimesNewRoman',serif;font-size:14px;line-height:18px;">I do remember Nico asking Percy a ton of questions about annabeth regaurding how close their relationship was. "is annabeth your girlfriend? how close are you? are you just friends? do you want to ask her out?"

1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 (not using your numbers, actually counting from top) are all perfectly human reactions. No comment on the rest.

WAIT.....WAIT.....WAIT...
Just read through the House of Hades. Nico. Di. Angelo. Has a crush on Percy? I thought homosexuality was supposed to be kept out of this! So what, is Nico homosexual, or did he mean something else when he said he had a crush on Percy. Please tell me there is another meaning, because I am disturbed. DONTLOOKFORME (talk &bull; contribs) 03:56, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

Yes he is homosexual and there isn't a problem with that. Rick explained it on his faq. SoN  - "Sometimes it's only madness that makes us what we are."  03:58, November 5, 2013 (UTC)

OMG. He isn't homosexual. If you understood the reading, it said had. He was impressionable -- DanyYB ~Daughter of Wisdom  04:19, November 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * Rick Riordan has clearly stated on his FAQ that Nico is a homosexual. Also, this isn't the appropriate place for you to have a mental breakdown over the fact that you are "disturbed" by it. Go to this blog and cry about it there. Also, on the blog there is a section that says "Nico's Character Development" which is from RR's FAQ answering the question.  SayuriDarling  ~ “But a mermaid has no tears, and therefore she suffers so much more.”  05:07, November 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * By disturbed, I meant I am confused. My thoughts are DISTURBED. Disturbed can be used in two ways. And yes, I have read the blog and I understand. My thoughts are just disturbed because I didn't understand. I am just 13, reading something with that kind of twist confuses me. DONTLOOKFORME (talk &bull; contribs) 22:29, November 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * 8th Hero of Olympus (talk &bull; contribs) 09:34, November 7, 2013 (UTC) Well, I've had a crush on Nico <3 <3 <3 ever since Rick intoduced his character. His homosexuality broke my heart, but I don't care, I think Percy and Nico would look  adorable together! I hope they kiss in "The Blood of Olympus"!!! <3

'''8th Hero of Olympus (talk &bull; contribs) 09:30, November 7, 2013 (UTC) WHY IS NICO AN OUTCAST? '''

One thing  that I don't understand after reading "The House of Hades", is why Nico is so withdrawn: he avoids most of the Seven all together. Later, when confronted by Cupid, Nico claims that he "has no friends", and that "he might be covered in blood or sewage judging from the way others treat him," and that the only person to ever accept him was Bianca. '''HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!!! '''I thought that after the Battle of Manhattan, after Nico had saved the day with an undead army, that he was welcomed back into Camp like a hero and that "even the Ares kids considered him cool." Things appear to be going pretty well, and Nico seems to have been accepted. THIS IS A DIRECT CONTRADICTION!!! A year later, why would Nico still be one of the least sociable demigods and claim that others don't accept him???

Language
Ok, so as far as I know, Nico speaks Italian and English, but where is it stated that he speaks Spanish? DanyYB ~Daughter of Wisdom  22:42, November 7, 2013 (UTC)
