1. Percy (I just like his combo of skills and character.)

2. Frank (I like underdogs. I like them better when their powers come out. I like them even better when they master their powers. For me, Frank is the Rick Riordan version of another character I love: Po the 'Dragon Warrior' kung-fu panda) /

Mars (He seems to be more humble and duty-conscious than his Ares form. Mars seems to be more peaceful. He is both intellectual and practical. He is a loving father to Frank and gives him good advice. Even  when Mars was in  his schizophrenic phase, I think it was his wild Ares form asking Frank to kill everyone. Mars is my favourite Roman god.)

3. Nico  (When I saw how powerful he is, how difficult his life has been, how caring he has been to major and minor characters and how well he has fought his enemies.) /

Reyna (Despite setbacks in her personal love life, she did her duties with full dedication. That puts her above many of the Seven. Also, she is powerful and skilled.)

4. Leo (character + ability to solve seemingly impossible problems + powers + backstory) /

Annabeth (wise, underrated. I initially didn't think she deserved to be one of the Seven. But she did many important things for the team)

5. Damasen the giant (Strong sense of what is right. Sacrificed himself to save two mortal strangers.) /

Bob the Titan  (underrated, even by the characters in the book. Powerful, yet kind. Sacrificed his life to save two mortals, who had been  his enemies in the past.)

6. Hazel (powers + backstory + character)

7. Jason (powers + backstory + character + duty-conscious, almost an ideal Roman)

8. Coach Hedge (skills + backstory + character + willingness to do anything to protect his dear ones) /

Clarisse LaRue (After Blood of Olympus, I feel she is more like Mars than like Ares.)

9. Piper (can show all kinds of love, including kindness) I agree with most of them.
