When his father ran out of ideas, Haley suggested that he make upward new stories that combined existing mythological characters with new ones. This led Riordan to create the fictional character of Percy Jackson and the story of his travels across the The states to recover Zeus's lightning-bolt. Haley and so[ when? ] suggested it exist written as a novel.[3] Riordan received input on the manuscript from some of his middle school students before taking the thought of Percy Jackson to a publisher.[four]
Riordan has said that Percy Jackson's original character was "inspired by my son'south own struggle" at school. Haley and Percy have been cited every bit the "aforementioned age" and share several character traits, though they are by no means the same person.[2] Riordan has also stated that Percy has "[his] sense of humor" and is also "based on many of the students [he has] had in the past."[iv]
Character
In the story, Percy Jackson is portrayed as a demigod, the son of the mortal Sally Jackson and the Greek god Poseidon. He has ADHD and dyslexia, allegedly because he is hardwired to read Aboriginal Greek and has inborn "battleground reflexes".[5] Percy'due south birthday is August eighteen.[6] In the kickoff novel of the series, The Lightning Thief, he is twelve years erstwhile.
His personality is described as "child-bearing like the bounding main" and difficult to predict — with the important exception that he is dangerously loyal to his friends and family unit. The goddess Athena describes this as his fatal flaw.[7] Percy's "powers", which get-go pocket-sized and develop as the books keep, include controlling h2o, making hurricanes, breathing underwater, and talking to horse-similar animals and fish. He too becomes an accomplished sword-fighter and leader. Throughout Percy Jackson & The Olympians, Percy grows more confident and dauntless.[viii] He serves equally the beginning head counselor of the Poseidon motel at his demigod summertime military camp – Camp Half-Blood.
After The Final Olympian, the next time Percy is seen is in The Son of Neptune, the second book in the sequel series The Heroes of Olympus. He has amnesia and slowly struggles to regain his retentivity over the class of the novel. For a while in the book he cannot remember annihilation other than Annabeth Chase, his long-time friend. He arrives at a Roman institution called Military camp Jupiter, and is elected praetor as a result of the help he offers them on a quest.

Every bit Percy was a stiff demigod (a son of Poseidon, one of the "Big 3") and such demigods attract monsters more than usual, she had to marry him to protect Percy from danger.
Between the fourth dimension of The Boxing of the Labyrinth and The Concluding Olympian, Sally Jackson marries Paul Blofis, a human being she met in a writing seminar.[seven] Percy likes and respects his new step-male parent and somewhen reveals to him that he is a demigod.
