Oh, dude, those beads on Annabeth's necklace in "Percy Jackson" represent each year she's spent at Camp Half-Blood. It's like a charm bracelet, but for demigods. So, each bead is a little trophy for surviving another year of monster attacks and prophecies. Like, wear that bling with pride, Annabeth!
Because in the Percy Jackson series, Percy is at Camp Half-Blood for four years. Every year a camper receives a bead.
The beads each represent one completed year at camp. They are always painted with a symbol that represent a major event from that year.
Percy receives his first bead in "The Lightning Thief". The bead is pitch black with a sea green trident. His second bead is received in "The Sea of Monsters". The bead is of the Golden Fleece. "The Titan's Curse", which is the third book, does not have a bead because it happened in the winter. The third bead is received in the fourth book, "The Battle of the Labyrinth". The design is of an intricate maze. The last bead is presented at the end of the Last Olympian. The bead is a black with a gold picture of the empire state building with all the names of the fallen demigods written in the Greek alphabet.
