Understanding the Claiming Process for Children of Hades in the Percy Jackson Universe

In the Percy Jackson book series, the process of claiming for children of Hades is not explicitly shown. However, we can gather information about claiming from the broader context of the series.

Claiming in the Percy Jackson universe is when a deity acknowledges their demigod offspring. It usually involves the deity sending a hologram of their symbol of power to appear over the child's head. This hologram serves as a sign that the demigod child is a son or daughter of a specific god. The process of claiming is a significant event in a demigod's life, indicating their true parentage and the powers they will inherit.

Claiming in the Traditional Camp Half-Blood Setting

Before the events of The Last Olympian, not every god had a cabin at Camp Half-Blood. Therefore, a claimed child of a minor god would end up in the Hermes Cabin. However, after the Second Titan War, Percy made the gods promise to claim their children by the time they turn thirteen and build cabins for all the minor gods. From then on, claiming became a common occurrence at Camp Half-Blood with new campers typically being claimed at the campfire.

Claiming at Camp Jupiter

In the Roman counterpart, Camp Jupiter, the claiming process is slightly different. Roman demigods are generally claimed when they turn sixteen, marking their transition from boy or girl to man or woman. Sometimes, the gods will send a sign or omen to their child to indicate their parentage. However, there is no specific information available about how children of Hades are claimed in the series.

No Explicit Showing in the Series

Unfortunately, there is no specific information available about how children of Hades are claimed in the series. It is possible that they are claimed in a similar manner to other demigods with a hologram or symbol appearing over their head. However, without direct evidence from the books, we cannot say for certain.

Considering the nature of Hades, the Greek god of the underworld, it is possible that he is not as showy as other deities. This could mean that claiming for children of Hades may not be as overt as for other gods. It is also possible that some children of Hades could have been claimed before their memories were wiped away, or they might discover their parentage through their unique powers and abilities, as Hazel did.
