Silena Bowregard

Silena Bowregard was a cursed weirdo daughter of Aphrodite and Mr. Bowregard, the girlfriend of Chairles Benchendorf, the former head counselor of the Aphrodite Cabin at Camp Cursed-Weirdo, and a spy for Rasputin.

History
As revealed in The Last Olympian, at some point shortly before he left Camp Cursed-Weirdo, Luke confronts Silena, charms her, and persuades her to become his spy by telling her that she would be saving lives. Afterward, upon discovering the truth, Silena wanted to stop being a spy for the Titans, but Luke blackmailed her by threatening to reveal her secret if she ever stopped and said that he would harm Charles Beckendorf, her boyfriend.

The Sea of Monsters
Silena is shown to be in charge of the Pegasus stables. She gives Perky Jackson his first riding lesson on a pegasus. Perky thinks Silena is very pretty and describes her as, "one of the nicer Aphrodite girls."

It can be assumed that Silena was how Luke already knew about Tyson before meeting him.

The Titan's Curse
Silena was one of the only campers at camp in December.

Perky tried to find Silena to discuss things with her. He spotted her having an argument with a Huntress in the pegasi stables, and decided he shouldn't get involved. Silena seemed angry about the argument and wanted to defeat the Hunters during Capture the flag, even though they didn't like the game. She said that she would show them "Love is Worthless" and pulverize them. She was on a team with Nico di Angelo, Charles Beckendorf, some Ares kids, some Hephaestus kids, the Stoll brothers, Thalia, and Perky. Silena led a decoy into the woods, and was spotted leading them deep in the woods later by Perky.

Silena later attended a council meeting with the head counselors to discuss the quest. Silena questioned the prophecy and wondered what "The Titan's Curse" was. Silena also said that Perky was right that two campers should go. Zoë Nightshade sarcastically asked if she was going to volunteer, and she blushed, saying she wasn't going anywhere with the Hunters and to not look at her. Zoe scoffed, saying it was odd that a daughter of Aphrodite didn't wish to be looked at and wondered what her mother would say. Silena started to get out of her chair, but the Stoll brothers held her back, and Beckendorf told her to stop. Silena, along with the Stoll brothers and Beckendorf, looked at the table when Perky tried to argue his case that he should go on the quest.

Silena attended the next meeting when Perky returned.

The Battle of the Labyrinth
Silena greets Perky when he arrives at Camp for the summer, riding a pegasus.

Later, Perky became nervous when he had to do cabin inspection, because Silena was doing it. When she did, she would always be harsh and liked things to be as pretty as possible. When Silena came to Perky's cabin, she was shocked at how clean it was because she didn't know that Tyson did it. Silena did a quick twirl and raised her eyebrows at Perky. She said she had her doubts, but he cleaned up nicely, and she would remember that. She winked and left the room.

The next day, Silena was partnered with Beckendorf by Quintus, which Beckendorf was happy about. The next morning, Silena met at the war council with Grover, Juniper, and the head counselors to discuss the Labyrinth. Silena was skeptical as to why Juniper knew where the entrance was, but didn't tell anyone.

Silena fought with the other campers at the Battle of the Labyrinth. Before the battle, she and her siblings helped straighten peoples armor and combing the tangles out of horsehair. The next day, Silena grieved for the dead and cared for the wounded with the other campers. She then attended a sing along made by the Apollo cabin to raise everybody's spirits.

The Bronze Dragon
During Capture the flag, Silena and Aphrodite's Cabin were on a team with Ennabeth, and Athena's Cabin, Ares' Cabin, Dionysus' Cabin, and Demeter's Cabin. After Ennabeth teased Perky about the game, she ran back to her teammates and they all laughed and gave her high fives, including Silena. Silena also passed by Charles Beckendorf while he was talking to Perky, and wished him good luck, calling him by his first name, Charlie, which no one did, and gave him a brilliant smile. Silena and Ennabeth then eavesdropped on Charlie and Perky and followed them, and then Silena jumped out of the woods and scared Perky, with her sword drawn. Silena had pink and red armor and makeup to match, making her look like Guerilla Warfare Barbie. Silena and Ennabeth tried to take Perky prisoner, until they realized that the Myrmekes were trying to kidnap Charlie.

Silena freaked out and yelled his name, and after Ennabeth let the ants take him, Silena became very angry at her and pushed her. Silena was also mad that she was more worried about saving The bronze dragon than Charlie, but Ennabeth shook her by the shoulders and explained to her that if they tried to save him, they would’ve been kidnapped too, and they needed a lot of help to rescue him. Silena began to cry and say that Charlie was probably already dead, but Ennabeth said he most likely had a half hour left. Silena sobbed more and said they needed to save him, and Ennabeth told her to get a grip and that they would. Silena was amazed when Ennabeth told mentioned the legend of the bronze dragon, and insisted it was just a legend. After she told her, Silena wanted to activate it, because it would help them rescue Charlie.

When they went over to the dragon, Silena realized that Hephaestus wanted Charlie to fix the dragon and unearthed it on purpose, making her choke up. After Perky complimented Ennabeth, Silena sniffed and wiped her eyes, and called him sweet. Ennabeth then told Silena to shut up and told her to hand her her dagger. When Ennabeth fixed the dragon and it charged at Perky, Silena ordered it to stop, speaking with such command that the dragon turned to her. Silena told the dragon that they woke it to save the camp, and said that Charlie was in trouble, making the dragon listen to them. They shoved the dragon to the Myrmeke's Lair and Silena led the charge into there, which was the first time Perky saw a daughter of Aphrodite lead a charge. Silena was so determined on saving Charlie that she was uninterested in a room full of jewelry, another first for a daughter of Aphrodite. She was very happy when she found Charlie and tried to help him up, and dragged him through the tunnels due to his paralyzed legs. She also pleaded with him to save the dragons life after it almost died, for her. But when the dragon malfunctioned, Charlie defeated him, and Silena was very happy, giving Charlie a kiss on the cheek and fussed over his cuts and bruises.

Silena admitted to Charlie that what he did was the bravest thing she saw him do, jumping on the dragon. When Charlie asked her out to the Fourth of July fireworks, Silena said she thought he’d never ask and said of course, and called him a dummy. The two then walked ahead, holding hands, and Perky and Ennabeth gave them space. It is later revealed that Ennabeth and Silena may have planned the whole thing just to arrest Charlie and Perky to keep them out of Capture the flag, but when asked, they just smiled, trying not to laugh. They won the game.

The Last Olympian
After Perky arrived at camp without Charles Beckendorf, Silena pushed through the crowd and ran up to him to ask him where he was. Perky noticed her hair wasn’t combed and she wasn’t wearing makeup, which was unusual for her. When Perky and Chiron broke the news to her, Silena was in shock and disbelief and began crying while everyone stood around her, too stunned to speak. Clarisse La Rue went to comfort her, put her arm around her, and went to get her a cup of hot chocolate.

Silena gathered with the senior counselors for a war meeting, with her eyes red and puffy and her cup of hot chocolate laying in front of her. She sat between Clarisse and Michael Yew arguing about who will drive the chariot when they defeat Kronos, and she was the only one who didn’t care about the argument, as she was thinking about Charlie. Clarisse and Michael did agree that they were only at the meeting to support Silena, though. Clarisse apologized to Silena about the dumb argument but to no one else, but Silena didn’t register her words. Silena watched Perky say the Great Prophecy and told him that "Raze" wasn’t the same as "Raise" and meant "to destroy or annihilate." Silent then began crying again when Charlie was brought up again, and Ennabeth put her arm around her. Silena also banged the table so hard her coffee spilled when they began accusing each other of being the spy, and chastised them for arguing like little kids when Charlie was dead. She put her head down and began to sob, making everyone feel ashamed.

That night, Silena went to the campfire to see Beckendorf's burial shroud. Silena sat there crying as Clarisse and Chris Rodriguez tried to comfort her. Perky went to talk to her and apologized for what happened to her boyfriend, and said that he looked at her picture before he died. Silena burst out sobbing, making Clarisse glare at Perky, but quickly composed herself. She thanked Perky and said she should go. Perky offered her company, but she shook her head and ran off.

Later, Silena met with the campers on the Empire State Building and she was astonished at how peaceful Manhattan was, and asked if they were dead, and Perky said they weren’t dead, Morpheus had just put them to sleep. When Pollux asked why they weren’t asleep either, Silena explained that it’s easier to resist bigger spells and that Morpheus's spell was a very thin layer of magic, and because of that it’s a lot harder to get demigods to sleep. Pollux asked how she learned so much about magic Silena blushed, saying she didn’t spend all the time in her wardrobe. When Perky said that they will hold off Manhattan from Kronos' forces, Silena was unsure and said Manhattan was a very big city. Perky gave Silena a random lady's cell phone and told her to keep in touch while holding off the city that way. Silena and her siblings from Aphrodite's Cabin then went to defend the Queens-Midtown tunnel after swearing to defeat Kronos for Olympus.

After Perky held down a bridge with Apollo's Cabin, Silena gave Perky a call, crying, and told him to come quickly to the Plaza Hotel and bring a healer to help Ennabeth. Silena helped Ennabeth until he came with Will Solace, taking her to the hotel beforehand, wrapping her in blankets, and wiping her forehead. After the rest of the campers left, only her, Perky, and Ennabeth stayed in the room. Silena said it was her fault and Ennabeth asked how it was, and Silena revealed her insecurities, saying she had never been a good fighter like Perky or Ennabeth were. Perky reassured Silena that she was a great camper and that she was the best Pegasus rider he’d ever met, and said anyone who could befriend Clarisse has talent. Silena then suddenly got the idea to talk to Clarisse and the Ares' Cabin and get them to help them. Perky and Ennabeth were skeptical but Silena begged them to let her take a Pegasus and try to get back to camp. They reluctantly let her, and Silena hugged Perky and then awkwardly glanced at Ennabeth. Silena apologized and thanked Perky, saying she wouldn’t let him down.

Silena went back to camp and disguised herself as Clarisse, and led a dozen war chariots into battle, driven by skeletal horses with manes of Fire, with the Ares cabin's warriors. Silena led 6 warriors straight to the Drakon and began fighting it, thrusting celestial bronze javelins into its mouth. Silena tried to stab the drakon's eye with a spear. Perky yelled that she could kill it, and that a child of Ares was destined to kill it, but when Perky saw her eyes, he could see a look of fear that Clarisse didn’t have and saw blue eyes, and realized that Clarisse didn’t have blue eyes. Silena charged at the drakon but it spit poison directly in her face, and she screamed and fell. Ennabeth ran to help her.

After the real Clarisse defeated the drakon, Clarisse and Perky went over to Silena and Perky realized that she was the trick that ended in death Rachel Elizabeth Dare foretold, and Perky realized it was Silena after Ennabeth removed her helmet. Silena’s face was badly burned from the poison and Perky realized no Nectar or Ambrosia would save her. Clarisse cradled Silena’s head in her lap and asked what she was thinking, and she said she disguised herself because they would only follow Clarisse. She told Clarisse to not blame her siblings for not recognizing her. Clarisse called her a stupid Aphrodite girl and asked why she charged the drakon, and Silena said everything was her fault and she endangered the camp. Clarisse said that it wasn’t true, but then Silena opened her palm to reveal a bracelet with a scythe, revealing she was the spy. She explained that she had a crush on Luke Castellan and that he was nice to her, promising she was saving lives and that he wouldn’t harm Charlie, which he lied about. Silena wanted to stop helping him but he threatened to tell. After Clarisse ordered her brothers to go, Silena begged for them to forgive her. Her last words were, "Charlie.. See Charlie" revealing he was waiting for her in Elysium.

After she died, Clarisse held her and wept, and Ennabeth closed her eyes. Ennabeth said that they must fight to honor her after she gave up her life for them, and Clarisse said she was a hero. During the burning of her shroud after the Battle of Manhattan, no one uttered the word "spy", and both the Ares and Aphrodite cabins honored her as a hero, and lit her shroud together, except for Drew Tanaka. Her shroud was hot pink embroidered with an electric spear.

The Lost Hero
Although deceased, Silena is mentioned by Ennabeth while she gives Pipe McCleaner a tour of Camp Cursed-Weirdo, who says that Silena was a great person. When Pipe asks what happened to Silena, Ennabeth stays silent for a moment but doesn't answer and instead tells Pipe that they should continue the tour.

Silena is later mentioned by Drew, her replacement and the new head counselor of the Aphrodite cabin, during Pipe's first night in the Aphrodite cabin after she is claimed. According to Drew, Silena didn't complete Aphrodite's Rite of Passage and deserved what she got. The situation continues to spin out of control as Drew denounces her as a traitor, angering the other cabin members. In confidence, however, Pipe, the Ares cabin, all members of Aphrodite's Cabin (bar Drew), and those that knew Silena when she was still alive firmly believed that she was a hero. Drew cited two main points of contention in regard to Silena's choice of actions; Silena's former alliance with Kronos and because Silena fell in love and stayed in love.

Despite never meeting her, Pipe respects Silena greatly, possibly due to her relationship with Jason Grace mirroring that of Silena's and Beckendorf's; both children of Aphrodite fell in love and refused to break the heart of the person they love.

The House of Hades
While at the River Acheron, Perky and Ennabeth are plagued with thoughts about how they were not so different from the damned souls, considering the deaths they "could have prevented." Silena was mentioned as one of these. Ennabeth was forced to remember how Silena and Michael Yew had died in the Battle of Manhattan.

Personality
She is noted to be kind and caring to the other campers. Perky once described her as one of the nicest girls in the Aphrodite Cabin (far less shallow and conceited than most of her cabin mates), also saying that Silena was a neat freak. She loved Chairles Beckendorf and began to date him after The Demigod Files, but before Beckendorf, she liked Luke and became his spy. Later on, she stopped liking Luke, leading him to blackmail her into giving him information by saying he would not harm Beckendorf as an agreement. Being the daughter of Aphrodite, she cares strongly for the people she loves. After the death of Beckendorf in The Last Olympian, she becomes filled with guilt and sorrow, but it doesn't stop her from helping her fellow campers and coming clean before she dies.

In The Titan's Curse, she tells people not to look at her, and Zoe Nightshade replies saying, "A daughter of Aphrodite who doesn't wish to be looked at?" Silena got up from her chair, presumably to confront Zoe, but is restrained by Connor and Travis. This shows that she can speak out and stick up for herself, and does not merely stand by and do nothing

Appearance
However, according to Rick Riordan in an interview, she officially has black hair and blue eyes.
