Characterization

1) direct characterization: Percy is brave, he faced the minotaur without knowing how to fight. Percy is troubled kid, he was kicked out of 6 schools in 7 years.
Indirect: Percy is tough, he battles the god of war and wins even after he was wounded. Percy is smart, when he was stuck in the tunnel of love with annabeth he tried to use his powers to focus on the water and push them out of the tunnel.

2)

3) the protagonish is dynamic. he changes SO much from the story. At the begining if the story he is a nobody that isnt good at school and keeps getting kicked out. At the end he knows he is the son of a god and learns to use his powers.

4) I have read the whole series multiple times, i can say i met a person. Rick Riordan is so well at describing his charcter his words come alive and seem so real.
