Shyanne Character Analysis

She’s the Queen of Sass, Annabeth Chase, an individualistic, clever, and fierce 12 year-old girl. Not just any girl but, a demigod, the daughter of Athena, goddess of wisdom and battle strategy.

As you can guess from her mother's history, Annabeth is incredibly wise in both real life situations and battle strategy.

Her clothing is plain, she does not seem to pay any attention to make-up – neither would she probably find the time for it – her hair is carelessly pulled back, and she does not portray any empathy or identification towards her victims or suspects.
