Introduction:

Hello! My name is Richard McCarthy and this is my first fan fiction story: The Tournament. This isn't an actual chapter or even the prologue of my story, just a little introduction to the plot, characters, setting, and some important info for all readers out there. Let's start with the plot.

Plot:

In my story, an evil man named Chaos kidnaps an assortment of Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians. Chaos pits them against each other in a tournament style, giving the story its name. One Roman and One Greek will stand out from the pack though and be instrumental in the aftermath of the tournament.

Characters:

Greeks-

Percy Jackson- Percy will be his usual seaweed brained self in my story. He'll have all the same abilities and character traits that make him a loved character.

Leo Valdez- A personal favorite of mine, I try my hardest not to be biased towards Leo in his fights. The fire bender will be up to his usual antics personality wise, but we'll see how he fares on the battlefield.

Nico Di Angelo- Nico will be brooding and emo throughout my story. I probably won't feature him in any love stories due to his lack of any potential partner. I personally believe he is one of the most powerful fighters in this book, and he should fare well in the tournament.

Annabeth Chase- I hate Annabeth to be honest. I've never really like her character, but I'll try not to let personal opinions get in the way of my writing in this book. I might dumb her character down a little.

Piper Mclean- Piper will not fare well in my story. Sorry Jasper fans.

Thalia Grace- She is barely mentioned in the last two books of HOO and that vastly disappoints me. She will have a semi- big role in my story and I'll enjoy portraying her as one of the stronger females in the book.

Romans-

Jason Grace- I'm going to fuck Jason up. I've always hated his character too, and that's going to show during my writing. Sorry again Jasper fans.

Frank Zhang- Frank's power is underrated as hell during the HOO series, and I'm going to portray him as one of the stronger males.

Octavian Truth- I gave Octavian the last name of Truth as a shout out to Rachel Dare. If anyone figures out the simple correlation then mental high five lol. Yes, Octavian is back from the dead to make a cameo in my story. Pretend his death didn't happen, because trust me he's dying early in my story.

Hazel Levesque- I love Hazel's character. She's one of the coolest because of her age of 13. I understand being the youngest one in a group, so I can relate. I'm going to expand on Hazel's ability to use the mist and her gem powers so watch out for her other characters.

Reyna Avila Ramirez Arellano- Another reason I hate Jason- how do you not date someone like Reyna. I'm a guy, and I can honestly say she is the sexiest fictional character I've ever read about. Reyna's dogs will be in my story with her for any dog lovers out there.

MY OC Roman girl- I haven't decided on her name yet or anything about her, but she will kick ass.

Egyptians-

Carter Kane- I've always admired Carter Kane's character. I think he's a badass, and he'll be a dark horse to win the tournament.

Walt Stone- Total badass baller. He'll be one of the featured Egyptians and play a prominent role in the death of a few beloved characters.

Zia Rashid- She'll be using her fire powers a lot. I like Zia's character and she will fare well against other girls in the series.

Sadie Kane- Sadie is a hard character to write about. I'll try my hardest to display her powers and her character in a proper way.

Setting:

The book starts in a barren wasteland, then moves to Madison Square Garden for the tournament.

Miscellaneous:

1. My goal is to update every Monday. I would like to update everyday because I love writing, but with school and Basketball, I have no time.

2. I plan on this book being 20-30 chapters long.

3. I will be writing a sequel, and I'll do other works, but for now I want to only focus on this story.

4. I hope you enjoy my story as much as I enjoy writing it.

5. Reviews, Favs, Follows and the fact that you took time out of your day to read my story makes being a writer worth it. They are all appreciated.

6. Constructive Criticism is welcome here.

Thank you for reading the introduction to my story. The prologue will be up on Monday, February 16th.
