Blackjack was seen at the end of the book on board the Princess Andromeda as Luke Castellan's forced steed and is the first pure black pegasus Percy had ever seen.
The Titan's Curse
Edit
Percy gets a pegasus riding lesson with Silena Beauregard, daughter of Aphrodite. It is also mentioned that the pegasi (mostly Blackjack) go to Percy to get him to help them with their and other sea creatures' problems. Afterwards, Blackjack helps Percy with traveling, including chasing after Zoë Nightshade, Grover Underwood, Bianca di Angelo, and Thalia Grace to assist them in their quest to save Artemis and Annabeth Chase.
The Battle of the Labyrinth
Edit
Percy visits the stables. Percy calls Blackjack and four other pegasi to transport himself and his friends back to Camp Half-Blood.
The Last Olympian
Edit
Percy uses Blackjack as his transportation in The Battle of Manhattan. Later when Percy told Silena that anyone that could get along with Clarisse has talent, she takes a pegasus and flies back to Camp Half-Blood to try and convince Clarisse and the Ares cabin to help fight the forces of Kronos. Percy also tells her she is the best pegasus rider at the camp. Porkpie and Guido assisted too along with the other pegasi from Camp Half-Blood, but Guido was injured after flying Percy and Annabeth to save Rachel Elizabeth Dare after Olympus was saved. Rachel also takes Blackjack after the battle and rides him back to camp.
