Ever wonder what would happen if your favorite book characters had a one-on-one fight?

DING DING, Harry “The Chosen One” Potter VS Percy “Seaweed Brain” Jackson! First we are going to focus on combat weapons. Riptide vs Harry’s wand, yes I know that Harry ends up having the elder wand but that is later so we will look at book 1 vs book 1 (Sorcerer’s Stone vs Lightning Thief).

Strength of Weapon

A celestial bronze sword versus a wand made of holly? Not a chance, right? Celestial bronze cannot harm humans. Harry is a human…I guess…unless wizards are some other branch of the god family tree?

Percy can’t harm Harry with Riptide but Harry can hurt Percy except that Percy is trained at hand to hand combat as well and breaks that little holly wand in half with one good hit. It is possible to cast spells without using a wand, but for most wizards the results are unfocused. I guess if you put the two in a ring and told them to go at it they have a good 50-50 chance since Harry has good reflexes being a seeker and might be able to keep his wand unbroken. As long as he kept his distance and used range such as a bowman would. If he did this I think that Harry would would this match.

However, that is not all this is about. Harry versus Annabeth, Luke, Clarisse (daughter of Ares with electric spear) or most other Percy Jackson character…see ya later Potter! Percy versus Hermione Granger? Same result as Harry vs Percy.

Ultimately Riptide is much stronger than Harry’s wand but has no range.

This makes Harry Potter the winner of this round!
