(Not my art but I love it)
So, second rant, so i feel like the hunters are extreme feminists, and in frank, are rude and disrespectful. i also think that Artemis has no right to turn innocent boys into jackalopes, i mean, if they slighted her honour, ok, but still, no.
Thank you.
*nervous bow cuz i know most ppl won't agree*

Hot takes and missed opportunities woo. Here goes nothing. Quick disclaimer, the intention of this was not to offend or hurt anyone in any way. This is purely my opinion, and you do not have to agree.
Making Some People Single
Now, this is something that is probably very debatable. A lot of people really loved Rick’s decision to allow Reyna to join the Hunters Of Artemis. Personally, I think it was a mistake. It is seen time and time again that Rick plonks people into the Hunters if he can’t pair them off. Reyna was his chance to break the cycle. Sure, he put Thalia there, but with Reyna? Now he had a chance of redemption! Unfortunately, as most of us know, he put her with the others - those who just didn’t seem to fit with any of the other characters, no matter how hard Rick tried to force them together. And the really sad thing? All of them are women. As a woman myself, I find this lacklustre attempt at empowerment quite simply sexist. Then again, single males have it no better. After Piper broke up with Jason, he was killed off. Another disappointing move that Rick didn’t have to make. You could argue that his sacrifice was necessary, and sure, it was - but that’s only because Rick wrote it to be that way. The only remotely empowering single person in Riordanverse? Leo. Insecure, traumatized, working through his issues - oh wait, what’s that? A beautiful titaness on an island all alone? Well, someone has to save her! Let’s send Leo! Yet another example of Rick unnecessarily pushing people together.
Giving Jiper A Healthy End
The end of BoO could have been the end to a toxic and forced relationship - but Rick decided to leave them hanging. Their entire relationship is based on lies and deception, “special” moments that never really happened and Piper’s refusal to believe that they could just be friends. To me it seems that Rick didn’t appreciate the fact that killing a character isn’t the only way to end an unhealthy relationship. I don’t remember any examples where characters have ended on good terms. Actually, I don’t remember any scenarios where characters have broken up. Piper and Jason broke up for plot convenience if anything, and they clearly didn’t end on good terms. They had a lot to work through, and Piper “realising she wanted him back” after he died was just her second guessing herself and her decisions. It was the perfect opportunity to show a bit of confidence, so that she could mourn Jason properly without regret.
Piper’s Cherokee Heritage
When Piper was first introduced, I thought she was alright. She was representing a minority, she had a pretty good personality and she added to the books. However, later in the series I realised her entire character was adding to harmful stereotypes of Cherokee people. There was much opportunity for Rick to expand on her heritage, to introduce his readers to it, but he decided to stick with basic stereotypes yet again.
Nico Di Angelo
That’s right. Nico. The amount of times I’ve seen users call him their “sweet little gay boi” is slowly driving me crazy. Nico is a huge missed opportunity. Rick could have chosen to portray him as a complex character, instead of making his sexuality his entire personality. Being gay, despite what some may think, is not a personality/personality trait. It is an important part of a person’s life, but it can’t be used as a personality trait. It was the perfect place for Rick to create a character who grows and develops across the series he is featured in, showing his platform how a person can change over time. Nico was introduced as an naïve child who had no idea what he was getting into, and then all of a sudden he matured into this emo type character with a boyfriend he, and us readers, barely knew.
Sorry for any grammar/spelling mistakes lol. That’s about it for now, there might be another part to this if I feel like it and/or think of more! :]

Hey guys! So i've been wanting to do this for a while, basically, the campfire song, only with different characters! If you've never heard it, you can listen to it here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jvy5LGjSbc)
To get the idea of what is going on. So we can do this only with characers like percy (a re-do now he is sure of himself), charlie, leo, jason, piper, will, nico, bianca, any pjo, hoo, and too verse character you can think of! we could also do this with the gods, any gods! Then if you all like, we could do a competition to decide which character's version fits most! We could also re-do the characters in this video!
Does being a Hunter of Artemis mean you have to abandon your family? Does Artemis become your "mother"? I've always wondered this
Overrated
Underrated
Perfect amount of attention

I want to be a daughter of Apollo who joins the hunters of Artemis just to spite him.
Anyone else?
Just me?
Ok
Okay, this post is aimed at people who are making fan art and fanfics. There are some things I have been noticing, some of which are subtle and some of which are more significant, but anyway, they’re getting under my skin. So here we go.
Nico is gay, so shipping him with girls is unrealistic and can be seen as disrespectful to his sexuality.
Sam should not be drawn with hair out of her hijab. This is Islamaphobic and offensive to those who practice Islam.
Hazel is a person of color. Her skin is a dark chocolate brown, and her hair is light/medium brown, not blonde.
Chris Rodriguez is Hispanic, not white. He is a very minor character, and isn’t described much, but I have been noticing that a large number of fan drawings portray him as white.
Alex Fierro is Mexican American. Based on description, Alex’s skin does not seem to be as dark as, say, Leo’s, but we can still honor his/her heritage by drawing him/her with the proper skin tone.
Reyna, Thalia, and all the other Hunters of Artemis have sworn off all romance, not just heterosexual love. Because of this, they cannot date anyone, so we can honor their choice to join the Hunt by not shipping them with anyone.
Okay, those are all the things that I can think of for now, but if I think of any more, I might make a part two. Thanks for reading! If you have done any of these things, such as drawing Sam with hair out of her headscarf or drawing a character as the wrong race, then don’t worry. The point of this post is to point out mistakes so that you can learn from them and make sure to never make them again!

Hey. Im going to start making appreciation posts about characters who I think are underrated. Today I am going to do Zoë Nightshade, drop ideas in the comments for me to do next!!
Zoë Nightshade Appreciation:
Zoë was a Hunter of Artemis for over 2000 years. But before that she was hurt and in pain, she helped a hero, so her family exiled her, and Hercules gave her no credit. Imagine helping someone, so your family then hates you, kicks you out, acts as if you never existed. That would cause you pain. But the fandom acts like this pain is irrelevant which is horrible.
Zoë also is extremely loyal. People always look at Percy for his loyalty, such as "he went after Annabeth" "the only person he remembered was Annabeth!!" yea, that is very loyal of Percy, kudos to him. But Zoë.... Zoë went on a quest which she knew she would die. She knew. But then she went on it anyway, to save Artemis, she went on the quest which she knew would kill her. And that is so loyal. Sacrificing yourself, to help someone else. But people still see her a bratty jerk. Yes she was bratty to Percy and men at first because Percy reminded her of Hercules at first, she had all the right to be angry.
So much of Zoë importance was pushed to the side because people mainly only payed attention to Percy and how he was going after Annabeth, so many amazing underrated characters are overlooked cuz Percabeth takes the spotlight. This leads people who don't appreciate the character to say that the character is overrated. Zoë, is anything but overrated. She doesn't have people making lots of art of her. She doesn't have a ton of popular fanfiction. She doesn't have a lot of headcanons, if she had that, then maybe i would sorta consider her to be overrated.
Also, what so many people don't realize is that the only reason Percy and the other "questers" + Annabeth and Artemis are alive and safe is because of Zoë. When Atlas was about to strike Percy to kill him, Zoë shot a volley of arrows at Atas, her own father, while she was already injured due to Ladon's poison. And that is terribly brave. I've said it once and imma say it again. Zoë is mainly known for the girl who said "I can see the stars again my lady" her death scene is mainly what people pay attention too, people who hate on Zoë never have had a reason, or have had a reason that I can't push back with evidence.
And once again, just wanting to emphasize this, Zoë knew she would die. But she went on the quest anyway. She knew. And someone who knows they're going to die, but goes along with it anyway... isn't that the brave hero that we should appreciate instead of hate on?
Thank you for coming to my character appreciation post. name other characters you'd like me to do this with. And if you don't like Zoë tell me why in comments cuz I'd love to have a debate with you :D

Zoë is a very underrated character and this post will talk about why she deserves more attention and appreciation from the fandom.
(This will contain spoilers to The Titan's Curse. Proceed with caution if you have not read/have not finished the Titan's Curse) Please read the entire thing! This took me a while to write, and i'm lowkey proud of it.
Zoë Nightshade was the daughter of Atlas and Pleione, and one of the Hesperides; nymphs of the sunset. The Hesperides helped guard Hera's tree of Golden Apples that resides in the Garden of the Hesperides. The Hesperides also have to take care of Ladon, the murderous and poisonous serpent like dragon with 100 heads, who guards Hera's tree. In the book it is stated that Zoë used to feed Ladon by hand, which is very brave and dangerous. This is a special bond between Zoë and Ladon which none of the other Hesperides have.
Zoë was later exiled, blotted out as if she never existed, because she helped a hero. She helped Hercules devise a plan to trick her father Atlas so he could retrieve some golden apples. She have him a hairpin which turned into the sword Anaklusmos. When her sisters found out about this, they exiled her. Hercules gave Zoë no credit for helping him, which angered Zoë as she had been through a lot of pain, because her own family exiled and resented her. Thus leading to her grudge against all male heroes, especially Hercules.
Harboring a great resentment for Hercules, Zoë joined the Hunters of Artemis. Where for swearing off of men, she received eternal youth, near-immortality, and invulnerability. And she stayed loyal, she stayed loyal for 2000+ years, which I think was the longest any Hunter stayed in the Hunt. I am pretty sure her fatal flaw is loyalty as staying loyal to someone for over 2000+ years is amazing, and very loyal of someone!! During the quest when Zoë saw Artemis pain she ran towards Artemis crying and screaming to let her go while pulling on the chains, she even tried to take the sky from Artemis, but Artemis didn't allow it. We all know that Zoë would've taken the sky without hesitation, which is very loyal of her. But most people just focus on Annabeth and Percy, which is why so many underrated characters get overlooked because all the fandom pays attention to is Percabeth.
Also, Zoë sacrificed herself so Percy could get Annabeth and so they could rescue Artemis, the 4 would never have gotten to where Atlas was if Zoë didn't distract Ladon, which got her bit. And, when Atlas was about to strike and kill Percy, Zoë shot a bunch of arrows at him, distracting him. So if it weren't for Zoë, there would be a good chance that the four plus Annabeth would either be dead, or become Kronos' minions.
This isn't even half of the amazing things Zoë has done, and not even half of the horrible things she's been through. Zoë is always seen as the girl who said "I can see the stars again My Lady" but she is so much more than that. She is an amazing and complex character who deserves a lot of recognition. thanks for coming to my TED Talk. have a good day!!
