–Butch, to Leo in The Lost Hero. | ||
Butch is the demigod son of Iris and the counselor of his cabin.
History
Butch is a camper, and he is shown wearing a Camp Half-Blood shirt. It is plausible that Butch didn't fight in The Last Olympian because he is a son of Iris and there wasn't a cabin for Iris at Camp Half-Blood until the end of The Last Olympian. At one point, Leo makes a comment that he is the son of the rainbow goddess, Iris. and he is good with pegasi resulting in the nickname, Rainbow Pony. It is quoted below:
Leo choked. "Your mom is a rainbow goddess?"
"Got a problem with that?" Butch said.
"No, no," Leo said. "Rainbows. Very macho."
"Butch is our best equestrian," Annabeth said. "He gets along great with the pegasi."
"Rainbows, ponies," Leo muttered.
"I'm gonna toss you off this chariot," Butch warned.

The Lost Hero
Butch is seen with Annabeth when they arrive at the Grand Canyon on a chariot looking for Annabeth's boyfriend, Percy. After that they take Jason, Leo, and Piper to Camp Half-Blood. While on the ride Leo makes a sarcastic side comment that Butch's mother is the goddess of rainbows and how manly he is. Butch then threatens to push him off of the chariot. He later appears at the head counselor meeting, and is seen sticking colored pencils up the nose of Clovis, who is sleeping.
