Here's mine, I guess. Leo's flames will be used to fry bacon.

0) Nico - You da real MVP. Also can fissure the earth and summon (small, but there is so797kib01 (talk &bull; contribs) much room for improvement) armies of skeletons. Heck, Percy would have died in Titan's Curse (only three books in) if not for Nico. Should have been a seven, IMO.

-0) Clarisse - Why did Rito abandon you? You were perfect. Pretty much Thor with a spear over a hammer. (You want me to let the spear down?) Where did you even go all of THOH?

Now the actual list...

1) Hazel - Someone might tell you getting hit with two tons of minerals at a high speed is deadly. Heck, one iron ingot can split a head at a fast speed, don't get me started on diamonds.  The thing that really makes this strong is that it's hardly limited. Face-wrecking minerals are pretty much everywhere, (Sorry Jay. Zeus doesn't give a crap)  and she has less limits when it comes to improvement on sword fighting compared to Percy or Jason, who've been at it for years. I broke the meta, sue me. Wait a second, did I mention Mist? No? Most have forgotten. This thing has pretty much no limiter, IMO. (Teleport people into freaking mazes of death and create real trap doors under people. Have fun.)

2) Percy - My problem with both Percy and Jason is that they've pretty much hit the limit. The only thing he can do now is strengthen his hurricanes. But he is still the strongest, sadly. Also, I never started talking about how he never would have gotten through even the first book if not for dumb luck and lots of help. He only started being good at House of Hades. And he would have been murdered by Medusa's sisters even then, if not for his  near-immortality. What about the people who went to Camp Jupiter without that?

3) Jason - Again, same problem as Percy (Lightning bolts can get stronger? Does Leo have any rubber?). If he could stop relying on Zeus's (very limited) bolts, that'd be great. I mean, one bolt per day, and even that drains him. But he is a good sword fighter, and he has the ability to fly, giving him literal higher limits.

4) Frank - He can turn into almost any living creature, including bees (ask Hercules how you kill all those. I guess smoke, but again, who carries that besides Leo?) and dragons. Pretty good sword fighting, but it's not his high point.

5) Piper - She could tell Percy to jump off a cliff, and he'd probably do it. Her charmspeak can only get stronger, I guess. Other than that, she's an overall Annabeth clone minus smartness and a slight decline of dagger skill. Still, she could kill any of them, (unless you add earplugs. Again, only Leo can really obtain those, pulling them out of his tool belt) and she pretty holds everyone together. (Not like that counts for anything, though. Poor Leo.) I broke the meta again. You can burn my house down.

6) Annabeth - She's a genius and all, but she doesn't have any real super-human powers, so that limiter is there. Overall, she's a very good sword fighter, destroying Percy in the Lighting Thief Movie. (until he healed using the water, which was bs.) She's the only character who's just flat out skill instead of dumb luck and shapeshifting, hurricane, lightning, etc. crap. But she still doesn't have any good powers. Sigh... you did it, Riordan.

7) Leo - I'm sorry Leo. You may have built a flying pirate ship, but well... You can't fight. Please Understand, Jason already took the Thor roll here. (But you start excellent flame wars, so there's that.)

I understand you probably don't agree with me, but that's fine. I'm not here to change your opinion, only to state mine. Of course, I'll get bashed anyway. Leo, I need a fire extinguisher...
