History::
Athena was actually by her father’s head. But the story behind that was that Metis, Athena’s mother, one day went to Zeus and told him that if he gave her a child, it would be powerful than him. So Zeus swallowed her whole. After a while, Zeus was having a bad headache. Hephtatis came and split Zeus’ head open and then sprung out was Athena, full grown and dressed in her warriors outfit.
When the Trojan War started to begin, she instantly favored Odysseus. She would tell him strategies and help them get through the war and also tried to help him home. Instead of bloodshed of the war, Athena wanted to focus more on strategies.
When it came to Athena, she always helped the heroes. Such as, Jason, who went on a voyage to get the Golden Fleece, when he was disgorged by the monster. Then it was Perseus (the ancient Greek tale), she had helped him get the head of Medusa. So she always had a plan to help everyone.
Athena doesn’t really like Percy much, she thinks that he should stay away from Annabeth, but that’s not her place to tell Annabeth to stay away. But when she had seen Percy at Hoover Dam, Athena disguised herself as a park ranger and told him how to get out of the dam. But really Athena helped him so that he could save her daughter, Annabeth.
When it became the Winter Soltice, Athena had agreed with Ares and Dionysus to have Percy killed. She knew that Percy would judge her, so when everything was cooling down, Athena talked to Percy and told him not to judge her too harshly and that he was a big risk.
Typhon was coming across the United States when Kronos let him out of the mountain. So she had convinced Zeus to tell Hermes to send a message saying that it was a trap and to give them information. Then Athena tells Annabeth to try plan 23 and she told Percy to stay away from her daughter.
When Percy and his friends had won the battle of the titan Kronos, Athena had asked Annabeth to rebuild Olympus for them. Once they had their council meeting, Athena pulls Percy to the side and asked him why he had given up his immortality. When he said that he couldn’t leave Annabeth, but then quickly said Grover also, Athena was a little angered and said to spare her. Leaving in a fiery blast which singed his eyebrows. Which was a good laugh later for Athena.

Sample RP::
Athena was circling the grounds of Mount Olympus when there was a whisper of her name, calling in her head. I wonder who that is. She stopped in her place and turned to look down on the Earth below. As to Athena’s amazement was a boy, who looked about five feet, eight inches tall. Reddish hair and also thin. He was standing at an enchanted door. Athena shook her head, I know of this door all too well. The door has been enchanted by herself, filling it with riddles. The demi-gods who wanted the treasure behind the door, needed to figure out the riddle but the catch was, you only get one chance at it in your lifetime.
Athena heard the boy say a prayer to her, O, Goddess of Wisdom. Help me figure out this riddle it is saying to me. the voice humming in her ears. Athena asked the door in her mind to play the riddle for her. The door said in her ears, I am one with eight to spare, lest I lose my one. I am not a number. Athena knew right away what the answer was, but as she had seen this kid before, Athena knew that he was not worthy of the treasure. So she whispered down into the boys ear, If you think you shall deserve the treasure, then the answer you seek is a spider.[/I]
Athena watched as the boy got all excited, he had said spider, but when the door said that he was incorrect, he was outraged and yelled to Athena why she had given him the wrong answer. Athena yelled back to the boy, Your journey so far has not been a good one. You need to look back on all of the trouble and the bad you had done wrong, and make them into a life full of good, otherwise, you shall end up with nothing in the end. And with that, Athena had made the boy disappear back to where he came from and changed the location of the door so he could find it no more.
