Camp Jupiter

The Roman Camp Half-Blood is an unnamed demigod training camp, the Roman counterpart of the Greek's Camp Half-Blood. However, the Roman demigods and their activities director, Lupa, know the gods by their Roman aspects. According to Jason Grace, the camp is more militaristic, war-like and disciplined like their parents Roman counterpart. He also stated that campers there are not as welcoming as those at the Greek camp. They are thought to be located near San Francisco, most likely to keep an eye on the Titans. They also probably fight in a manner more similar to Rome, using legions and weapons such as the gladius. This is shown when Jason says he fights using legionnaire training. They also probably wear Roman armor and use Imperial Gold for their weapons. Lupa is harsher than Chiron because she doesn't help her weak campers, or go to their aid. You need to prove your worth, or you don't survive.

History
After the fall of Troy in ancient times, Aeneas, a Trojan prince son of Aphrodite/Venus, went into exile in Italy, founding a new civilization which later became the Roman Empire. Over time, their pantheon became much more disciplined, warlike and militaristic, and the gods decided to adopt this aspect in the eyes of Romans producing demigods differents from those conceived under their Greek appearances. Settled a rivalry between the two groups, which subsequently has many conflict over the ages.

Not much is known about this camp except that they fought the Greek Camp Half-Blood in their own war, which mirrored the mortals' American Civil War in 1864. Because of the toll this war took on their children, the gods decided to completely separate these two groups, the Greeks and the Romans, to avoid further bloodshed. The gods wove the Mist so thickly so that the enemies would soon forget each other and that the campers never cross paths again, even on quests, to avoid another similar war. In the 1960's, however, there were several close calls. At the Greek Camp-Half Blood they wear orange t-shirts but at the Roman Camp-Half Blood they wear plain purple t-shirts.

Chiron, Lupa, and most likely others who also knew of this incident, swore upon the River Styx never to speak of it. Chiron had wanted to keep this promise that he refused to tell even Annabeth, one of his most trusted campers, but was later forced to tell the story to the campers later in the book, The Lost Hero.

The Last Olympian
While the Greek campers were fighting their own side of the war, the Roman campers had their own part as they conquered Mount Othrys. Jason defeated the titan Krios himself and "toppled Kronos' black throne". Camp Half-Blood campers thought that the mountain just fell after Percy defeated Kronos.

The Lost Hero
Camp Half-Blood campers learn that there is a Roman camp is in existence after Chiron vaguely tells them of the Greeks and Romans' separation after a war went on between the two groups, which mirrored the mortals' American Civil War in 1864. Percy and Jason, the Greek and Roman camps' recognized leaders, respectively, have switched places due to Hera. The camp was said to be harsher than Camp Half Blood, that the weak do not survive. All Roman campers wear plain purple t-shirts and it is also possible that they have a similar tattoo as Jason Grace, a series of lines like a bar code to signify how many years they were at the camp, with the initials SPQR (Senatus Populusque Romanus - The Senate and the People of Rome) and the symbol of their godly parent on top. It is likely the camp is located somewhere in the hills near Highway 24 and the entrance to the Caldecott tunnel.

Known Campers
The Roman demigods are filed by their parents at the age of two years in a building known as the Wolf House where they are supported by Lupa, then if she judge them worthly she take them to the Roman camp where they are livestock marked with the symbol of their godly parent and the initialism SPQR. Later for each year spent at the training camp they receive an additional line on their tattoos.
