Chris Rodriguez

Character from Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan

Son of Hermes who defected to Kronos, went mad in the Labyrinth, and was healed by Clarisse — the series' most personal redemption story.

Chris joined Kronos's army because the Hermes cabin was overcrowded and unclaimed kids felt forgotten — he was one of dozens who defected not out of malice but out of the desperate need to matter to someone. Kronos sent him into the Labyrinth on a scouting mission, and the maze's shifting corridors broke his mind. Clarisse found him wandering, babbling about impossible geometries, and nursed him back to sanity over weeks of patient, stubborn care — which is how the daughter of War fell in love with someone vulnerable, and how the defector found his way back to camp.
