History[]
Piper's dad Tristan McLean fell in love with Aphrodite, the goddess of love, lust and beauty before Piper was born. He is Native American
Their relationship resulted in the demigod daughter of Aphrodite and the mortal Tristan Mclean. Piper grew up under her father's famous shadow, because he was a handsome and a famous movie star. She wished she could have had everything she wanted but she didn't like taking her father's money. Piper also felt as if her father was too busy for her, and without too much hesitation decided to steal things to get his attention. She kept stealing, and he kept talking to her, but she came to the conclusion that the bigger things she stole, the longer he talked to her. Before she left for the Wilderness Survival School, she stole a BMW from a car dealer. She asked him if she could have the car, and he said yes, so she got in and drove it away. Later the man realized what he'd done and called the police resulting in Piper leaving for the survival school. After Jason died she began to fade as a minor character but is in a current relationship with a teenage girl named Shel
Appearance[]
While Piper's appearance is never exactly described it is said being a daughter of Aphrodite, she is incredibly pretty. She has choppy uneven brown hair, but it still looks good. (She insisted on cutting her own hair with plastic kid scissors.) She wears mostly out of the ordinary clothes, mostly odd, to downplay her beauty. Her eye color was never defined, it is said her eye color can change like a kaleidoscope. In The Lost Hero, it is said she never wore makeup and she always wore a bulky snowboarding jacket. And was originally described as always having a small braid on each side of her hair with a feather in each.
Personality[]
Piper's personality is one of a kind. Her mood can change when things get serious, she feels the normal type of fear which most heroes won't admit. She is considered a tomboy.

Powers/Weapons[]
Piper has only one known power, and one known weapon.
- Charmspeak: This gives the Charm Speaker the ability to take control of another being by simply putting power in their speech. This is a rare ability that Aphrodite gives to very few of her children.
- Katoptris: The dagger Piper carries. The original owner was Helen of Troy. She normally uses this dagger as a future-teller. It shows her tidbits of things going to happen or happening at the same time, but is not always clear about what it means. (The past may not be one of those.)
