Player: Mei Character: Annabeth Chase Current Canon Point: End of book 1 Lightning Thief Updated Canon Point: End of Book 5 The Last Olympian
Updated Background: The full background of what happens in the 4 books just to her can be found here but I'll sum it up. Sea of Monsters Annabeth sneaks out of camp with Percy to go on another quest to find the golden fleece which will save the tree that protects the camp. This tree has protected camp since her arrival but has been poisoned. They travel with Percy's half brother who is a cyclops and fight their way through the sea of monsters. Annabeth listens to the songs of the siren to find out more about herself and saves Percy from being turned into a guinea pig. They fight Polyphemus and save the golden fleece which is brought back to camp. The tree is healed a little too well and her friend Thalia is revived.
The Titan's Curse The group go undercover at a school to find Nico and Bianca who emanate a strong aura and are believed to be children of the big three. Here, Annabeth is captured and is tricked into bearing the weight of the sky on her shoulders. At this point she still trusts Luke. In this book, Annabeth isn't featured as much as she was a captive and the book is written 1st person POV from Percy's side but he goes to find Annabeth's father who comes to help save her.
Battle of the Labyrinth This is Annabeth's time to shine as she has been studying the labyrinth for some time and the quest was given to her to undertake. This is also the book where she finds out about Rachel and starts showing a jealous streak that Percy may have feelings for somebody else. She has been working with Clarisse to discover the entrance to the labyrinth in their camp and then leads her quest group to go find daedelus to help them win the upcoming war with the Titans. They fight their way through a lot of different parts and eventually come across a fight where she would need to leave Percy to fight by himself. She kisses him for the first time and escapes. After an earthquakes, she thinks he's dead as he disappears for 2 weeks but he shows up as she is burning his shroud. She hugs him but then gets jealous upon realizing that he has spent all this time with Calypso.
It is then discovered that they need a mortal's help through the labyrinth so begrudgingly, she accepts Rachel's help even though she is snarky throughout and they find their way through the labyrinth. This is where she loses Luke to Kronos as he has accepted the Titan into his body and she realizes that she needs to give him up. It's a big turning point for her emotions wise.
The Last Olympian In this final book, they fight the war against the Titans. A lot of this book is dedicated to Percy and how he overcomes the troubles for this war but the main points of this would be finding out that Annabeth has given up her feelings for Luke and has written them off. Also, that she gave up saving him when he came to speak to her under the flag of truce and because of that Hermes (Luke's dad) was very upset with her. Annabeth also finds out that Silena, one of the campers she is friends with, was a traitor to all of the camp and they eventually win the war with many casualties.
Updated Personality: The core of Annabeth's personality remains the same as she has been fighting against monsters(kindly ones) since she was 7 years old so she has already developed a lot of courage and a very mature personality. The main changes would be in regards to her romantic side and learning about the harshness of war and growing up.
The main part would be her romantic feelings. She learns to stop being stubborn about her feelings for Luke and it takes her until the last book to realize that he couldn't be saved. By going through this, she realizes that she can't save everything. This is coupled with the information she found out from the Sirens that her hubris is Pride and she needs to learn to not fall prey to that. Her dream is to make the world better and her pride made her believe this. This included saving Luke, rebuilding the world so all the buildings were perfect and getting her parents back together (even though that is impossible as the goddess Athena would never marry and settle down with a mortal man).
She also learns to overcome pain quickly as there are other pressing things to do in life. Such as when she is crying that Percy relies on Rachel so much but she puts it aside to help him in battle and also when she finds out that Silena is a traitor. It hurts her very deeply but she realizes she must go on.
Through the additional quests, she learns that the divination provided by Delphi always has two meanings. Through the books it shows that she starts to understand that you can't control everything and that fate must take its course (even though that doesn't stop the fact that she still stays up all night trying to think of all the possible outcomes and trying to make the best outcome happen).
She also overcomes a big personal issue when she was given the choice to join the hunters of artemis to gain eternal life and be free of all these romantic problems. In the end, she decides to not take up the offer so that she could be with Percy and be a normal human (even though it takes him an additional book to actually return those feelings).
Updated Abilities: Her fighting abilities greatly improve as she has now been through the great war and gone through additional quests. Her battle tactics and knowledge over war strategies has improved greatly.
Her willpower has increased as she's learned to focus on it and was able to stay alive while she was holding the sky on her shoulders (although this may have always been the case but it only came into evidence during this part).
Other: Annabeth now has 2 items that she takes everywhere with her. In book 5, it is mentioned that she even takes them into battle with her when she can. That is the cursed knife that is strapped to her arm (that she was originally apped with) and now also the laptop of Daedlus which gives her a lot of battle plans, architecture ideas and unfinished inventions that could take her upwards of 50 or so years to look through let alone complete.
Questions:Hopefully it's okay for her to come back canon updated in the next few days as she's been on hiatus for almost a month now and I wanted her to return canon updated. I am looking to finish my hiatus early.
