      I think Nico comes close but Bianca's ghost and his love for Percy get him back on the right track. It would have been interesting to see him as an antagonist though, cause I believe that of all demigods, Nico's powers are the most intense even if they aren't too durable.

      2. Not making Rachel goes to Olympus to meet the Greek Gods and making her the new Oracle during their meeting!

      @MIEKE BENDOLPH I think Luke would ask her to be the spy almost a year before Percy came along and she will keep him informed about there quest. She would still be kidnapped in the Titans curse and would be told to act like she had really been kidnapped. Nothing much would change in the 4 book. In the last book annabeth will develope feelings for Percy and tell him the truth. Percy will tell Chiron about it and annabeth would not participate in the battle of New York and instead of Selena coming to rescue with ares cabin it would be annabeth. She would save everybody from the monster and at Olympus throne room she will betray Luke and tell Percy luke’s Achilles heel and Percy would hit on that spot with such force the armour will break and a shard from the armour will pierce the skin and sink into his body slowly killing Luke

    The movies never really understood Luke, at least post-evil reveal. In the Sea of Monsters film he’s just this cliched stone-faced unrepentantly evil Bond villain. Luke was a really nuanced antagonist in the books. There’s one little detail from the Prophecy in The Lightning Thief that I think speaks volumes, ‘You will be betrayed by one who calls you friend’, I’m just going to let the fact that Luke considered Percy a friend in the first book just sorta well in your mind palace for a bit.

    I just couldn't help but feel sympathetic towards Luke in that book. Like there are multiple times when he is Kronos but remembers his original personality.

    Life of Selena Beauregard (It's pronounced sel-lay-na boe-re-guard. You pronounced it wrong in one of your older videos. Sorry for being nitpicky just thought I'd point it out)

    I really love Luke's character. Rick did a really good job with Luke, not making him just the typical "pure evil" villain but rather a guy who wanted to destroy the gods because of his resentment towards, and was helped, and at the same time, manipulated, by Kronos. I guess I could understand why he hated the gods and why he was angry at them. And his life story is really great, filled with adventure, then his betrayal, then his helping of Kronos' reformation, the war, and finally his heartbreaking end. I've always loved the PJO series and Luke's character is a really great part of it. The movies did him real dirty, making him that typical "pure evil" villain he never was in the books, partially because the movies did not include much about his background and his reasoning for his resentment towards that gods. Great video, MovieFlame! You did a rlly great job explaining his amazing and tragic life story. Can you pls also do a vid about the life of other characters like Percy, Annabeth, or Nico.
