I'm just casually doing Greek Mythology research and I just can't help sharing this because I don't know what to do with this information, but I was looking up at Artemis' epithets and one of which is Angelos,
And the fact that Nico and Bianca di Angelo were introduced to Artemis and her huntresses in the same book and chapters, and the fact Bianca who joined Artemis' huntresses and whose name means 'White' that can be also referenced to a number of Artemis' other epithets while also bearing the surname 'di Angelo',
I can only imagine this was the Fate's joke (cough Rick Riordan cough) and it dawns on you that Bianca was always going to join Artemis and her hunters but also was fated to always have some connection with Death, both as being a demigod of Hades and her early death-
is because on further research on Artemis epithet as Angelos,
The fact Angelos also a reference to another god who is referenced to Hecate and/or Persephone, and is basically a Chthonic/Underworld god as well.
So Bianca (and Nico) di Angelo were always going to meet Artemis sooner and later because of the names and blood they bear.
I can imagine Rick Riordan deliberately doing this as a hidden easter egg but if not, this is hella of a coincidence that seemed intentional by Rick or heck even the Muses themselves, because BRUH.
(also before anyone asks: NO, I will NOT be writing a demigod headcanon about Angelos and her demigods because there's not a whole lot about her and I'm not going down this rabbit hole again Thank you Very Much and Good day)
EDIT:
FORGOT ONE MORE THING-
Its a bit of a stretch but you see in the bit of where Zeus ordered the Cabeirori to cleanse Angelos, the Cabeirori were Chthonic deities that were worshipped in a mystery cult closely associated with Hephaestus,
and remember where and how Bianca died?
Right, she died from being killed by one of Hephaestus's automatons-
do you think Ariadne accepts Dionysus's children as hers too? She is very loyal to her husband, so I only see Castor, Pollux, Dakota and any other child born to Dionysus being automatically "adopted" by her too or "I'm going to mess with my husband ( ╹▽╹ )" and claim his children as her right after him do the announcement (poor kid)
i.g:
Dionysus: this one is mine, don't worry *see the sign in the kid's head* ... My grape!
(they're both extremely cute together and the kids suffers with this)
Oh yeah, I can imagine that being the case. Between her and Dionysus when Ariadne was still mortal, apparently they had a lot of demigods; so in terms of demigod children, she probably understands this is just him being a god and still loves her greatly, so it’s just probably filling a need once in a while; why else we see only a literal handful of Dionysus demigods.
So yeah, I can imagine Ariadne accepting Dionysus’ demigods as her own in a way, much like Poseidon’s godly wife, Amphitrite, being very cool to his demigod children. Heck, Amphitrite made cookies for Percy! So it’s not out of the question.
Thus insert the amount of godly shenanigans just between this husband and wife that the Dionysus’ demigods are subjected to. It's also been confirmed by Percy that Ariadne has a strange sense of humour, so yeah I can see that scenario happening a few times, which is practically all the time
What’s also nice to know is that Ariadne is the Cretan Goddess of Labyrinth and Paths, right before she was absorbed into the Greek pantheon. So you can imagine there’s some connotations…afterall, if you’ve ever been in a Labyrinth before, you probably have gotten mad trying to get out…but most importantly, just imagine getting minor blessings or gifts from Ariadne, especially those that involve weaving because of her iconic magic ball of yarn, she is considered the goddess of weaving in a sense. Prepare to get a lot of blankets/quilts, sweaters and socks for Winter Solstice/Christmas from her.
There’s also a stretch to say Ariadne is to connected to her roman counterpart, Libera, is a minor goddess of wine with chthonic attributes too, so like can you imagine seeing the floating grape floating above the kid’s heads, and people thinking oh Mr. D is straight up claiming them normally, and him inwardly sighing at his wife’s antics.
So very, “MY GRAPE!”
It’ll be a very confusing but fun times ahead.
Thanks for the ask and I hope you have a nice day! ヾ(•ω•`)o
What do you think of the idea of a demigod child of Rhea? How would Mr D, Chiron and the campers react to them? Would their Olympian siblings acknowlegde them in any specific way or just be indifferent to them?
I have a headcanon that while Mr D, isn’t the biggest fan of demigods he’d have a soft-spot for the child of Rhea. Because she in some myths raised him, cured him of madness brought on by Hera and also joins him and his followers in their parties.
Love your blog so much btw❤️
Immediately everyone paused to stare at the demigod of Rhea. Not because the child of Rhea is anything wrong but it’s more so the fact that Rhea hasn’t been seen for a millennia by anyone aside from her direct 6 Olympian children maybe, so for her to go out and have a child with a mortal in that time is mind-boggling; almost unfathomable.
The appearance of the demigod of Rhea would be the few times and everyone’s waking realization that Mr.D’s behaviour and attitude to them was all a lie, when he breaks for the Rhea demigod because yeah, not only she cured him of the curse of madness by Hera, but also taught him in religious rites which helped solidify him as a god. So there’s a sense of responsibility to take care of this demigod but also it’s a child of Rhea. So who knows what’s going to happen; especially when he will technically be in charge of you.
It’s pretty hard for the Olympians to not notice the child of Rhea, especially the first 6 Major Olympians, that they have a new baby-sibling who is also a demigod. A squishy, half-mortal, half sibling. However, it’s very hard to criticize when the child of Rhea is basically just like her, which is very hard to argue against.
There would be questioning of who the mortal parent is, how they were worthy of Rhea’s attention. But the bar is low for whoever the mortal parent is cause clearly they didn’t eat the child as soon as they were born unlike Kronos.
The most important thing to happen is that Zeus isn’t the youngest sibling. Which isn’t good, because Zeus despite being born the youngest, will probably not be happy losing his very, long, youngest sibling rank and all the attention it came with it, especially with how he defeated Kronos.
Especially if the child of Rhea is a boy.
Much to the glee of Poseidon and Hades, who is overjoyed but is hit with despair when he realizes he will have to see to his half-sibling when their time runs out.
If the child of Rhea is a girl, there’s less reaction from Zeus but he will still not be happy. In return, Hestia and Demeter just cooing and coddling their youngest sibling and I think Hera might actually enjoy being an older sister; that is still motherly in a way. Hopefully.
As for the immortal grandchildren of Rhea are confused because technically the demigod of Rhea is their aunt/uncle but they’re so young, small, and weak (cough Ares), but take it in stride when eventually that is a good thing…
Cause I have a feeling because this child is their mother’s child but is also a demigod…they have complete ability to call out their behaviour when one of the gods do something, and they can’t really do anything because Rhea would not be happy. You’ve heard, “I’m not angry, I’m disappointed”, now imagine Rhea being THE QUEEN of that, delivering that statement this demigod child also able to make the gods feel that.
Much to the delight of a rotating number of gods.

If Ariadne has any demigods of her own and they come to camp, Dionysus lets them live in Cabin 12 as he sees them kinda as his own children.
I can just imagine Annabeth leading a new camper who just arrived to the big house where Chiron and Mr D are playing cards. And before she even gets the chance to introduce them Mr D goes ”Oh that’s one of mine- Or well, my wife’s. Show him/her/them to Cabin 12”.
Hope you like it :)
Time for some more shenanigans with Ariadne and Dionysus *rubs hands together with mischief*
If Ariadne did have any demigods, Mr. D's reaction would be a bit caught off guard » disbelief » a quick flash of indignation » resignation » understanding » finally total acceptance.
Then he'll say that line from above; cause yeah, Ariadne's kid is basically his and his wife is going to be very upset with him if he doesn't, and also like he's the Camp Director, he makes the rules.
If not, for whatever reason, Mr. D will just put the Ariadne demigod in the Big House cause it's either that, erecting a cabin of Ariadne PRONTO, or putting them in his cabin. No compromise or no budging. He is not going to anger his wife.
Cause god damn it Zeus, he's already making his wife wait for him being exiled to Camp and this is what happened! He can't even visit! He's already learning and learnt enough what not to do from watching from whatever is happening to between Zeus and Hera alone (well not entirely since well he did get himself stuck in Camp because he did chase after Zeus' nymph-).
Heck, he is the living proof what not to do! (i.e. He is literally the byproduct of Zeus' infidelity being born as a demigod and look what happened to his mother).

Ngl , I am kind of sad that Athena kids don't have any powers like the rest of the other gods and goddesses kids.
So what power do you think a child of Athena have ? I haven't seen anyone talk about before
Yeah compared to the other demigods, they all seemingly have some superpower or whatnot, or presumingly. We’re not entirely sure what the children of Dionysus have in terms of powers, but we can only assume they can grow plants and vines because of Dionysus' realm as a fertility god technically with grapes and whatnot, and madness but that hasn’t been canonized.
Though, not even the children of Ares have a superpower either. And not even when Clarisse had Are’s blessing because that’s not something every child of Ares has and can get either.
But the children of Athena do have a power which is their super intellect, but it just seems rather mundane compared to the literal superpowers of every other demigod.
The books goes out of its way to remind that Annabeth’s intellect as a daughter of Athena is crucial to every quest and battle with her being a great strategist and being able to get out of them out of tough situations; and just because you have superpowers, it doesn’t mean its a get out of jail free card - which fits with how the ancient Greeks viewed things as wisdom and being crafty was important for every hero.
Think of something like the immovable object vs unstoppable force.
However, if you really want a superpower for a child of Athena, based on their wisdom, intellect, and the mind in general, and exaggerating what they already do- the only thing I can think of is being psychic, being telepathic, telekinesis, and/or forethought.
Telepathy because children of Athena are able to think and get into the perspective of the individual, so they can think how they will act and move as a part of a strategist, so having literal telepathy makes sense.
Telekinesis because with enough planning and calculations, a child of Athena seemingly makes things according to their mind without having to direct move them so telekinesis reflects that. If they do have telekinesis, they still require lots of practice, strength, and perspective training to imagine how things will move accordingly as you wish it will be.
Forethought because as a child of warfare and reflecting the strategy part of it, a child of Athena is able to see the patterns and know what is going to happen and makes use of this information.
So a child of Athena having the power of Forethought fits as if to see all avenues and paths and how every action and shift in the situation can result in something different.
Probably not all but can be but that raises their risk of being hunted by monsters and it seems like ordinarily, a child of Athena is targeted by monsters already so yes superpowers, but at what risk? Kind of deal.
That’s all I could come up with reasonably as a child of Athena if they had a superpower. Hope you enjoyed it and have a nice day!
sarcasticratnumber1000 : "So they’re kinda like Matilda wormwood? Because she’s most likely a daughter of Athena and she has telekinesis"
Me: OH! SHE IS ABSOLUTELY MATILDA! I love Matilda so this makes me happy! Honestly, yeah if she were to be a demigod, she would definitely be a daughter of Athena; her early intelligence that only continues to grow,her love of books and with this? it totally makes sense!
(a/n: had to put this note reply in this because it's honestly fits so much)
Oooof, I’ve been thinking about this for a while so here we go!
[LONG TEXT POST BELOW!!!]
Let’s just start off who Rhea is. Her name means “Flow; Ease” and she’s the Titan mother of the gods, goddess of female fertility, motherhood, and generation. Being Kronos’ wife and with her name, she represents the flow of time and generations, alongside with the flow of menstrual blood, birth waters, and milk. She was also the goddess of comfort and ease, and is considered also the Titaness of Protection and Blessing.
So first and foremost, a child of Rhea would have her ability to induce serenity; as the Titaness of Comfort and Ease, her demigod child would be able to emit feelings of tranquility. This can happen by either an actual power or be inherent personality, seen in Hestia, where they just exude comfort and ease, giving an aura of warmth, comfort, safety, and so forth.
Regardless, just because its comfort and ease, personality-wise it doesn’t have to come off as something quiet and composed (though it can very much be). Their personality can be something gruff and tough, but there is comfort and ease behind a strong persona, like a heavy weighed blanket.
Though being a demigod, the caveat is that as a power, it can only be attuned if they practice the act of comfort and ease. Something like achieving Inner Peace but with Comfort and Ease. The best way I can put into perspective is like the child of Rhea already exudes comfort and ease but their aura leaks out much like a leaky tap. Only when they come into their power can they let the power of Comfort and Ease flow out of them like getting the stuck tap to flow.
Once that’s achieved, I can also imagine their power being used to force their opponents to not fight, in a sense where a child of Hypnos just makes their enemy fall asleep kind of deal, getting their opponents or target to lose their desire to fight. In a better situation, it can be used to keep the peace and ensure communication is exchanged with words and not fists; which if they were at Camp, this would be used so many ways. In most situations, people are drawn to them to just feel at peace.
However, this power is not necessary a good thing to have on all the time.
While Comfort and Ease are good things, it is a passive thing and things cannot always be passive. They will have to learn or be forced to allow things to happen and it is inevitable that people will fight one way or another because it is required and there are reasons to fight and be active in.
Other than that, I can see the child of Rhea picking up the skills to invoke protection and blessings, stuff like having a safe journey, to be healthy, and etc. It’s not powerful and permanent as a god+ blessing, but being a demi-titan?demigod? Of Rhea has some power. Another power they would have is to heal, possibly their speciality in “Curing”; especially harder to heal afflictions, reflecting how Rhea cured Dionysus of madness casted by Hera. I can see the child of Rhea spending most of their time at the Apollo cabin.
There is also the minor perk of being able to befriend felines because Rhea and her lions. Obviously if the child of Rhea has contact with lions, they have their own pride of Lions by their side.
Y’know what their ultimate power is though?
Being able to talk back to the First Major 6 Gods and direct children of Rhea, with no consequences (except Hestia, she is their favourite half-sister and reminds them the most of Rhea). Not because they have this power of immunity, but its solely because they’re their half-sibling, and by sibling rite, they are the youngest and able to annoy them and call them out.
Of course they shouldn’t nor wouldn’t insult them to their face and blatantly disrespect them, because Rhea raised them better than this but when Zeus is trying to leverage his power as King, you’re allowed to call him out on his pettiness of power.
The direct children of Rhea can’t really do anything because that’s their half-sibling and Rhea would give them the ultimate “I’m not angry, I’m disappointed” which is far more effective than anything. It’s also a bonus they act very much like Rhea so it's really hard to justify doing anything to them; even by Demigod standards. And in turn the child of Rhea treats them like family, albeit with the whole being a demigod and whatnot.
Thus a revolving door of gods asking for them to join them and gaining little favours and payment. Hermes, Apollo, Athena, Ares, Hephaestus, etc. Heck even Zeus has asked politely to come to appeal Hera, and vise-versa.
