Ω PJO MISC. DEMIGOD HEADCANONS: 🌅 EOS “PERSONIFICATION/TITAN GODDESS OF THE DAWN, DEW” 🌄 {Wave 6.0.}
A/N: Hello again everyone! This time it will be Eos! I saw some of you asking for it the ask so its not I haven’t considered it but by the time you guys asked for it, I was already working away on it 👍 Its was weird doing search up Eos cause she was conflated with Hemera, the Primordial of Day, which was both easier since I did do some research during the Primordial demigods hcs, but also difficult since it was hard finding details that were uniquely Eos. Thankfully Eos does appear a few times in mythos, especially with the Trojan war so there’s that! It was also weird because in the Wiki fandom site, they had Eos have cryokinesis power which I couldn’t figure out why??? Anyways, hope you all enjoy this!

Zephryus landed you down on the dew covered grass, as you arrived at Camp just at the crack of dawn, the sun was peering over the skyline, a rosy orange glow pushing forward, pulling back the curtain of the night and stars. There wasn’t just anyone awake yet as you stood on top of camp, the rosy dawn washing over camp. You stared above it for a bit, catching your breath a bit before walking down to Camp, brushing past the dewdrops that there were on the grass.
A little girl with a brown shawl greeted Zephyrus and gave you a smile as she led you to the brazier as you helped her add more coals to it, allowing the fire to build back up into a roaring fire and she gave you a sweet bun when Chiron appeared, yawning and stretching into the air. He was startled to see Zephyrus who was greeting the centaur and then started at you sitting there and you greeted yourself, when a claim appeared over your head as dawn had broken through, a symbol of a cicada floating above you; thus Eos claiming you as her demigod child.
Chiron led you into the Big House, waking up Mr. D who was grumpy, especially when Zephyrus was there uninvited but then choked when the god of the West Winds confirmed you were a child of Eos, who was told by his godly mother to make you arrived at Camp and to confirm you were one of her owns; who was worried you wouldn’t be able to make it.
It wasn’t surprising that Eos had a demigod child but what was surprising was that it took this long to have one of her demigod children arrive at Camp, considering Eos was cursed by Aphrodite to constantly fall in love as punishment for sleeping with Ares that one time. There may be more of you out there, but why they aren’t at Camp either, it’s unsure.
If you’re more of an optimistic or a person who tends to have rose coloured glasses, who tends to see the best in things at times or tries to find the good in things, you’re likely a child of Eos as Eos is often referred to with Rosy- often because of her ‘rosy-fingers’.
If you have a love for all things beautiful or have a tendency to finding beauty in everything, that can be also be attributed by the rosy epithet that you’ve inherited from Eos, as you tend to have ‘rose-coloured’ glasses.
Eos was often referenced with wearing a lot of gold from gold robes, sandals, and even being golden-armed. So if you tend to lean towards gold, then that’s probably why. Paired with the connection with Rose and Gold, Rose-Gold is the ultimate gold of Eos and her demigod children.
Your Cabin is made with gold and a tint of rose gold, painted with the colours of dawn. When you enter it, there’s a constant presence of Saffron and Roses as well; either in scent or in appearance.
That said, if you notice your fingers or nails often having a flush, rosy colour, this is a physical feature that you inherited from Eos; whose rosy-fingers brings the red tint to the colour of dawn and sunrise. In a more literal sense, if you touch a rose bush that hasn't bloomed yet, or even focus hard enough to touch the ground, you can make roses bloom too.
There’s also a chance you make saffron bloom as they used the word to describe Eos as well.
Much like her brother Helios, she was also considered ‘All-seeing’ and you probably have the power of Clairvoyance through the eyes as well.
Eos has been also been referenced with the word Aurora (her roman counterpart) and Aura; where the greeks referenced it to the breeze but also attributed to Eos herself, while also being the Mother of the Winds: Boreas, Eurus, Notus, and Zephyrus. So there is a chance you have the ability to have minor manipulation or influence the winds and air. You might also be able to talk to the four winds but that requires and hinges on your relationship and respect from the four winds and on the mood of your godly half-siblings.
Going back to the power of Clairvoyance and the words of “Aura”, this applies modern usage of Aura as well- so your clairvoyant abilities may come in the form of being able to see someone’s aura. You can gauge someone’s personality and nature based on their aura as well as their emotions primarily. However, when you start to encounter demigods and the world you all belong to, you also realize you can tell what their godly parent is, if it's a satyr in disguise, or better yet, if there’s a monster hiding in your midst. For example, a child of Zeus’s aura is crackling and stormy with energy, a child of Aphrodite is pink and addicting-
There was a time you noticed a god but they looked at you with intrigue before quietly stopping you because you musn’t stare at their aura either for too long as you are looking a part of their divine form, and while you might not be incinerated looking at it, you’ll suffer the consequences too. You’ll be lucky if you just get eye astigmatism or become blind then over your life or going mad.
With a connection to drawing power from dewdrops, you can also manipulate mist; both the natural phenomenon of mist and the veil of mists that is between the mortal realm and the realm of gods and monsters. This is because Eos is connected with mists in many stories to describe her and her duties as dawn “with her rays of light dispersed the mists of night” (Theoi, Eos)
If you have an appreciation for the Aurora-Borealis, that’s also because of Eos and one of her immortal children, Boreas. You might also be able to summon it at times but it does take a bit out of you so probably something you can only do once a blue moon ... .and you don’t want to throw off scientists when you make it happen in locations where they shouldn’t be appearing.

The weather was cold but you knew it could be a whole lot more freezing at this time of year in Quebec. There were still remnants of the city being absolutely covered in nothing but snow and ice as if they were built out of it, but spring was arriving soon…hence why you were on the top floor of the hotel’s tower with Boreas; the God of the North Wind, Storms, Winter, Ice and Snow and Zephyrus; The God of the West (Gentle) Wind, Spring, and Attendant of Eros, were in front of you.
You were brought here by Zephyrus, a pit stop he said, and were greeted by Boreas’ children, Zethes and Calais, then being greeted by Khione.
The Snow Goddess greeted Zephyrus with respect, but when she looked at you, her face and eyes were cold to you. You weren’t sure if that was just her nature or was that her true feelings for you. It was probably because you were with Zephyrus that you weren’t turned into an ice sculpture.
“Ah, Zephyros, frere! comment as-tu été? Ça fait rop longtemps!” Greeted Boreas towards his brother first.
Boreas had greeted you not long after, after the winds traded small talk at first before they looked at you and hence here you were, sitting down at a grand table with drinks and snacks. You watched Zephyrus take a sip before he nodded before you politely took a sip and bite (you tried not to lose your nerve as you saw Khione sending you metaphorical ice daggers from behind her father).
“So, my brother here, tells me that you are a child of our mother, Eos, a half mortal child as well” said Boreas as he regarded you.
“Um, yes sir. Apparently sir” you said as you gripped the chilling cup.
Boreas hummed, running his hand through his beard in thought. “Interesting”
“Is it?”
“Oui! While Eos, the Titaness of Dawn, is not a stranger bearing half mortal children, it has been many eons since she had one. Especially after she lost our half-brother Memnon fought and was killed by Achilles in the Trojan War. Her tears created so much dew that it almost flooded the plains” he said.
“Oh ... .mother must’ve loved him greatly” you said.
“Indeed! She even asked Hephaestus to give her arms to Memnon in preparation to fight against Achilles, but alas he died with mother’s gift” he grumbled. You could hear the wind being agitated outside of the fortress and you were slightly nervous, looking at Zephyrus for some sort of comfort.
The God of the West Winds didn’t seem deterred but you were also aware that whatever north winds Boreas blew wouldn’t hurt him. You couldn’t gauge how much Zephyrus was amicable to you considering you only met the god for a short while, even if he said that he met you once as a baby to take you to your mortal parent.
“Brother, must I remind you why we’re here. If you have nothing more to say, we have to move on so we can send our youngest sibling to Camp” reminded Zephyrus.
Boreas’s clouded face became clear as he let out a laugh. “Ah yes! I wanted to know you a bit better as a fellow child of Eos, as mother hasn’t made herself appear in a while so I wanted to know what kind of child you are. Even Zephyrus was caught off guard when our mother summoned him out of the blue from her silence for so long to only present a tiny babe.”
“Well, I am certainly a child” you emphasized. Hopefully reminding that you were in fact, very innocent and was not part of any plan or whatever paranoid Boreas may be having.
“Oui, t’es! Your winds may not be very strong but who knows?” he shrugged before he gestured to you and Zephyrus, “Come, we have much to talk about and about our mutual mother; then Zephyrus can take you to that camp. Honestly, if it weren’t for mother to specifically say you were to attend camp like the other demigods, I would’ve made you stay here.”
You freezed and glanced at Zephyrus but he shrugged before gently yet firmly placing a hand against your back to lead you. “You see, Eos has been closely identified with Hemera, the primordial goddess of Day and was conflated, so it's hard to know part of the Dawn is Eos or Hemera; so we have to make sure how much of Eos you have inherited…” Boreas stopped and turned over his shoulder, “or if you also contain some of Hemera’s essence.”
Everything fell into place and you realized what was going on and why were you here to begin with.
Boreas beamed, “Now viens avec moi, I wonder how much of an Aurora can you make! We’re rather high up in the north so feel free to practice your power little sibling, the auroras here are rather breath-taking after all.”
