Piper McLean from The Lost Hero is the daughter of Aphrodite and this was shocking to Piper, she didn't know that she was even a demi-god till she came to camp halfblood. She can persuade anyone to her will. She doen't like that her mom is who she is and she doesn't like anything Aphrodite stands for, she'd rather blend in with the crowd instead of just being the center of attention.
