Camp Half-Blood AU

Camp Half-Blood AU is a a relatively unknown but still well-loved AU (Alternate Universe) within the world of Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians. In the AU, Rapunzel, Merida, Hiccup and Jack Frost are all demigods who are training at Camp Half-Blood. Because it is not canon, ideas for this AU are shown through fanfiction, fanart, and other fan-made works.

About the AU
For those who don't know the Percy Jackson series, the idea of Camp Half-Blood is a summer camp where demigods (half human and half god) can be sheltered from monsters while training for survival. They are sorted into cabins by who their parent is.

Featured Characters
Often in this AU, the Big Four are often placed into a lineage of a certain god or goddess. However, some fans place the Big Four as roles of the characters, such as Merida being Rachel. Below are the lineages the Big Four are commonly placed in:

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III
Hiccup is widely accepted as a son of Hephaestus (God of Fire and the Forge) based on his traits in his feature film. Much like his experiences on Berk, this type of family line can cause some confusion based on his stature - he would be quite small for a demigod of blacksmiths. However, his creativity and ability to invent many things fits well with this lineage, although it may cause some to question if he truly belongs as a son of Athena (Goddess of Wisdom, Culture and Warfare).

Jack Frost
Jack is often portrayed as a son of Hermes (God of Roads and Merchants) based on his personality. This is mainly due to his trickster, fun-loving nature and ability to ride the wind.

However, Jack also has been accepted as the son of Boreas (Minor God of the North Wind) for a series of reasons that go beyond his personality. Firstly, because he is the son of a minor god, he would not have his own cabin, unless the story was based after Percy Jackson demands that the children of minor Demigods also have Cabins. Additionally, it would make sense that he would gain his winter powers from the God of the North Wind that brings winter. This type of lineage would bring forth a lot of plot development and character development for Jack. For the same reasons, Jack is sometimes portrayed as a son of Khione (Goddes of Snow).

When slotted into characters from the series, Jack would usually play Percy Jackson or Luke Castellan.

Merida DunBroch
Merida is one of the more disputed characters in terms of her lineage. One of her more common portrayals is the daughter of Zeus (God of Sky and Thunder)  based on her personality. Her traits as being tough and headstrong, as well as containing the spirit of a leader, cause many to see her as a daughter of the father of the gods.

Another commonly shown lineage is the daughter of Ares (God of War) due to her personality and how it compares to the god. Her short, violent temper and desire to fend for herself, as well as her weaponry skills, would fit with this lineage.

Finally, some even have placed her as a daughter of Apollo (God of Archery) based on her skills with the bow. In comparison, others have included her as a Hunter of Artemis due to her skill at archery and her desire to stay single and independent from others.

Merida is also potrayed as the Oracle of Delphi because she is somehow like Rachel Elizabeth Dare, through personality and appearance.

Rapunzel Corona
Rapunzel is commonly portrayed a daughter of Apollo (God of Music, Healing, and Prophecy) for many reasons that include her personality, passions, and powers. The first idea for this is because of her connection to the sun as well as her healing powers that she holds with her hair. Finally, because she also breaks into spontanious musical numbers, this would add an additional connection between herself and her father.

She also could be considered a daughter of Iris (Goddess of the Rainbow) because of her ability to control light and her artistic abilities.

Pitch Black
Being the spirit of fear, Pitch fits in nicely with his counterpart in Greek mythology -- Phobos (God of Fear). His Nightmares can be either eidolons or storm spirits (venti).
