Hey Mr. Riordan!! If the gods do not have any DNA, how come the children of Athena tend to have gray eyes, and Percy has Poseidon's black hair and green eyes? How do they inherit these traits? This question keeps me up at night...
Rick Riordan
it's magic? Godly magic is more powerful than DNA, I would think, but I don't know. Like so much in the divine world, it's can't be explained by us mere mortals!

Rick Riordan:
Hello! In the books it says that demigods have ADHD and are hyperactive because they are trained for battle. Is there anything else that gives them a benefit for having ADHD? I was mostly wondering if the inattentiveness part of ADHD has something to do with being a demigod. It would make so much more sense if I was inattentive because I was a demigod rather than just because my brain is weird.
