A cool plot idea is that Percy discovers his true parentage later in the series, after already believing he was just Poseidon's son. This revelation throws his world into chaos. He then has to go on a quest to understand why Hera was involved in his creation. Maybe it was part of a grand plan to create a demigod who could bridge the gap between the constantly - feuding gods, especially between Poseidon and Hera's husband Zeus. Along the way, he has to face monsters that are specifically targeting him because of his new - found and very unique parentage.
One plot idea could be that Percy has to deal with the internal conflict of having two very different divine parents. Hera's strict and often - conniving nature clashes with Poseidon's more laid - back and powerful - but - less - controlling side. Another could be that the other demigods at Camp Half - Blood are initially distrustful of him because of Hera's reputation. So Percy has to prove himself not only as a powerful demigod but also as someone who can be trusted.
