Powers
The demigod children of Hecate possess true magical abilities such as spell-casting (as shown by Lou Ellen and Alabaster) and they are only demigods who can truly cast magic. As shown in The Demigod Diaries, children of Hecate can control the Mist, a magical force with which they can cast illusions and a myriad of other things. Using the Mist they can summon items such as a sword and create apparitions called 'Mistforms'.
By speaking in either Latin or Ancient Greek, her children can cast many spells for various effects such as creating fire, generating cold, protecting oneself and shielding themselves from the tracking abilities of monsters.
They have been shown to be able to levitate objects and using their powers to remove a person's nose (as shown by Lou Ellen playing Got-Your-Nose with Miranda Gardiner from Demeter's Cabin).
Hecate can be a tough parent, and her children must prove their worth and study hard to master their skills in magic, as magic has a way of twisting around the user. So if a child of Hecate isn't careful, their spells can do more harm than good.
Trivia
- Alabaster C. Torrington is a child of Hecate, but he made a promise not to enter Camp Half-Blood so he does not corrupt his half-siblings.
- Based on the fact that Hecate is actually a Titan, her children may not be considered proper demigods.
