On an emotional level, for the readers, it would be a very impactful event. Many fans love Percy's character. His death would create a sense of shock and sadness. It might also make the fanfiction more memorable as it goes against the expected narrative where the hero usually survives.
It could also change the power dynamics. Percy had unique powers and abilities that were crucial in the war. Without him, the opposing forces might gain an upper hand. For example, his control over water was a major asset in battles against the giants. His death would mean the loss of that strategic advantage.
Well, it would have a huge impact on the wizarding world as a whole. The Ministry of Magic would be in an uproar. They had high hopes for Harry and his role in the future of the wizarding community. His death could also lead to a change in the way Hogwarts approaches the Triwizard Tournament in the future. There would be a lot more safety regulations and restrictions. And his death would leave a big emotional void in the hearts of those who knew him, like Hagrid who had a special bond with Harry.
One consequence could be that it divides the fan community. Fans who like Jason might not appreciate Percy being portrayed as hating him, and vice versa. This could lead to arguments and a split in the fandom.
If the fanfiction has a certain set of rules in its fictional world, Percy might break laws or social norms. For example, if he's in a position of responsibility and drinking alcohol affects his duties, it could lead to him losing his job or status. Also, from a health perspective, if the author decides to include it, he could experience hangovers or long - term health issues related to excessive drinking.
One consequence could be that he might face social isolation in certain situations. For example, in a party or gathering where alcohol is the main feature, Percy would be the odd one out, which could lead to him being excluded from certain social circles within the fanfiction.
One consequence could be that the fanfiction community might feel less connected to the character. If Percy doesn't seem to interact with or acknowledge the fan - created stories, fans might feel like their creativity isn't being recognized. For example, they might be less motivated to write more stories about him.
The most obvious consequence could be that he won't read or support any Percy fanfiction. He may also discourage others from reading it if they ask for his opinion.
One possible consequence is that Annabeth will be heartbroken. She's deeply in love with Percy, so his rejection would be a huge blow to her emotionally.
It could lead to a breakdown in the demigod community. Percy is kind of a hero figure, and if he doesn't care, it might demoralize other demigods. They might start to question their own purpose and the importance of their roles. Also, it could make Camp Half - Blood more vulnerable to attacks as Percy is a strong fighter.
One possible storyline could be a powerful new enemy emerging. This enemy could be a long - lost primordial being. They manage to overpower Percy and Annabeth in a battle that was unexpected. Maybe they were lured into a trap where their powers were nullified, and they couldn't fight back effectively. Another storyline could be a self - sacrifice. For example, to save their friends or the whole of Camp Half - Blood, they choose to face a great danger alone, knowing that they won't survive.
Percy could lose trust in the gods completely. After Artemis' betrayal, he might feel that he can't rely on any of them anymore.
