He is portrayed by Logan Lerman in the film adaptation and by Chris McCarrell in the musical. He leads the army against Kronos in The Last Olympian. After he helps Zoë, Bianca, Grover, and Thalia, Zoë reluctantly allows him to become the fifth member of their team. Percy has a crush on Annabeth, but his love life has been difficult as a result of Aphrodite's promise she made to him when she met him in the desert.

In The Titan's Curse, he is also not selected to go on the quest, but he follows the group because he needed to help Annabeth, who is in love with Percy. The quest in The Sea of Monsters was actually led by Clarisse (a daughter of Ares), but Percy sneaks out of camp because he needs to find Grover, his best friend/protector. In The Battle of the Labyrinth, Percy has to go through the Labyrinth (a big subterranean maze) created by Daedalus, in order to defend the camp against Luke (a son of Hermes and servant of the Titan lord Kronos). He was technically only selected to go on two of the five quests in the series, the first being the retrieval of Zeus' master thunderbolt.

Being a child from one of 'Big Three' (Zeus, Poseidon, Hades), Percy is possibly the child referred to within the prophecy, which foretells that the next half-blood child of the 'Big Three' to reach the age of sixteen would make a decision that would either save or destroy Olympus.
