Percy hopes that he never finds out that he is wrong. As they are moving away, Percy hears Polyphemus gloating about how he finally sank Percy's gang. Luckily, Percy and Tyson call up Rainbow and his friends to carry them away from the island. The Cyclops, using her voice as a guide as radar detecting its target, threw a rock at Percy's gang and sank their ship. With Golden Fleece secured, Percy and his companions escape from Polythemus' Island, but Clarisse La Rue makes mistakes of taunting Polythemus. Because Polyphemus is also son of Poseidon, Percy Jackson is unable to kill him in spite of bluffs. In this book Percy discovers that the majority of Cyclopes are his half-siblings (sharing the same father). Polyphemus also had been using the fleece to lure Satyrs to their deaths. This novel features a hostile Cyclops named Polyphemus, a large, greedy and blind Cyclops who stole Golden Fleece to enrich himself and his own island residence. The three Cyclopes are slain by Leo Valdez and Tyson. Additionally Hyperborean Cyclops are not of Poseidon's descendants. Northern species of Cyclopes often interact with Roman demigods. They take great pride of belonging to Hyperborean (Northern) Cyclopes since they are the meanest of the brethrens. Sump, Torque, and Ma Gasket are evil Cyclopes family who prey on demigods. Tyson, when he was a baby Cyclops, unknowingly frightened away other monsters, leading to Percy not being attacked all year.Ī Cyclops is depicted as a a tall man in a trench coat and hat who kept stalking on Percy Jackson (or tried to keep close eye on Percy). Cyclopes are also feared or avoided even by most monsters, as even when they are young, they are still incredib strong. No one wants them and they end up growing wild on streets. Because of conditions these species are subjected for their upbringings they mostly go astray. They mostly live in human cities and are treated as outcasts or mistakes. Even under Kronos' rule, Cyclopes were not freed so Kronos' mother Gaea, his son Zeus, and his wife Rhea plotted against him.Ĭyclopes are discarded by their parents when they are born (with the exception of Polyphemus) so they are left to fend for themselves. But Ouranos was not pleased with the appearances of monsters and imprisoned them until Kronos overthrew him. The first generation of Cyclopes were raised by Ouranos and Gaea. They have radar-like auditory and can mimic any voices perfectly. One such a notable individual is heroic Tyson). Majority of Cyclops are offsprings of sea god Poseidon, thereby making them Percy Jackson's relatives (half-brothers.
