Yazan is a Roman demigod son of Vesper.
History[]
Yazan was born to Vesper, the Roman god of dusk, and an unknown mortal parent. When he was old enough, he was brought to the Wolf House and survived Lupa's training. He made his way south to the San Francisco Bay Area and found Camp Jupiter. Arriving just a few months before the mythics, Yazan joined the Second Cohort.
The Nico di Angelo Adventures[]
The Court of the Dead[]
When Nico di Angelo and Will Solace arrive at the Caldecott Tunnel, Yazan and Savannah greet the two. They are thrown off by Nico's Cacodemons, but the son of Hades explains they are with him and they back down. Savannah starts to complain about something, but Yazan cuts her off. The two escort their visitors to Camp Jupiter and alert Hazel Levesque to their arrival. Once the praetor greets the visitors, she sends the two back to their posts.
Deion and Yazan are sparring partners during the first training session with the mythics, but Deion gets distracted, resulting in Yazan accidentally hitting him hard. The two then switch partners, facing Will Solace and Nico di Angelo respectively. The two offer Deion and Yazan advice about fear, but before they can start sparring, Savannah collapses from a panic attack.
Yazan and Deion are later on guard when Orcus experiences a panic attack and has to be rescued because of how he is unused to the modern world. This enamors the gryphon to the two legionaries who befriend him and promise to teach Orcus everything that he needs to know.
Deion and Yazan are on guard again when Nico, Will and Hazel leave to investigate the lead that they got from Laverna. Yazan promises not to fall asleep again and the two reveal that the entire Second Cohort spent the night building a shrine for Laverna on Temple Hill that they designed like a holding cell for the goddess. It's Laverna's first real shrine in millennia and the mystery means that she won't be sure if it's safe to take the offerings. When Nico and Will return without Hazel following her supposed execution, their devastated expressions tell the guards everything. Will orders Deion to use the tessera to Iris Message Frank about what happened.
Yazan is chosen to be a part of the strike team to rescue Hazel and the mythics from Golden Gate Park along with Nico, Will, Frank, Deion, Lucius Silver, Lavinia Asimov, Orcus, Johan, and Semele. Savannah, Yazan and Deion are chosen because they worked with the Coco Puffs before while Lucius has become Johan's self-appointed bodyguard. The team is each paired up with one of the Coco Puffs to be able to see through the Mist better. Before Nico gets the creatures under control using chocolate, the team attempts to capture them with butterfly nets, Deion chasing Loneliness with a war cry. Nico explains that they're not sure how the Coco Puffs work, causing Deion to suggest that they're aliens, but it seems to be through showing people the truth which Savannah demonstrates with Grief.
On the ride to Golden Gate Park, as Yazan is paired up with Shame, he feels ashamed of his Coco Puff compared to Defiance, the Puff paired up with Nico. During the Battle of Golden Gate Park, Yazan, the other legionaries and Will form a circle around Dolus and Apate to buy Hazel and Nico time to free the two trapped gods from the Chains of Prometheus. After being freed, the two gods go overboard on the Mist, but Will is able to get Frank and Yazan reunited with their Coco Puffs who then help reunite the others.
Following Pirithous' defeat, Hazel spots Yazan, Deion and Johan walking arm in arm laughing about house cats while Lavinia and Lucius dance to Cotton Eye Joe, Frank and Savannah help the injured Arielle walk, and Orcus flies reconnaissance. Will provides everyone with chocolate and the group debates what to do with Pirithous who wants to be punished, but Will, Hazel and Deion agree that enough has been done to him and it would be like killing an injured animal. The debate is interrupted by the arrival of Hecate and Deion has to be shushed by Savannah due to his commenting that Hecate is a goddess that he actually recognizes. Hecate returns Pirithous to his punishment in the Underworld while making him think that it's actually a reward and erases the memories of the mortals who witnessed the battle. Deion is left awe-struct that they got to meet eight gods in one day, causing Savannah to tell Arielle that Deion is such a baby and will grow out of it one day.
Before Nico and Will return to Camp Half-Blood, Yazan, Deion, Arielle and Savannah reveal that they are planning to go on a quest to find the empousa who killed Savannah's family in order to help her get some closure. Nico feels worry for the young demigods going out on a quest, even with Arielle's help. Yazan, Deion and Arielle run off to the augurs on Temple Hill with a teddy bear Deion has ready to sacrifice.
