What does Hades want from Percy Jackson?

When Percy arrives with Nico, the Last Olympian Hades imprisons him in the Underworld because the death god wants his son to become King of the Gods and refuses to help his family battle the Titans. To save himself, Percy must defeat Hades's daughter Persephone so she will release him from his prison.

Hades hopes that by trapping Percy he will force him to take over the role of king and marry Persephone so she will never marry anyone else. But even though he is Prince of the Underworld and ruler of the Dead, there are still ways to escape from Hades' trap.

Percy first meets Hades when he comes to collect him for his trial by combat against Poseidon. At first, Hades seems like a nice guy who wants to be friends with Percy but once they enter the underworld it becomes clear that he has planned all along to put Percy in this situation so he can fight for him. During the battle, Hades tries to kill Percy but instead wounds him badly. Realizing that he can't beat Hades in combat, he asks Zeus for help. Sure enough, Zeus comes to his rescue and kills Hades while he was distracted by Percy's struggle with him. After Hades's death, Zeus turns him into a constellation called "Hades".

People often think of Hades as being similar to Pluto, but they are not the same person. Pluto is the Roman name for Hades, and it is possible that people started calling the two names together because they thought them to be the same thing. However, this is not true: Hades is part of Olympus, while Pluto is the ruler of the underworld. Also, while both have dominion over the dead, they serve different roles. Pluto can be used by humans to send messages into the afterlife, while Hades can only be contacted by those who have earned his trust through their good deeds in life.

In modern culture, people sometimes confuse Hades with Satan, but they are not the same person. Hades is a God, while Satan is the name of the Devil, which is another name for a demon.
