Percy and his friends are frequently in peril with lots of fighting against monsters using swords and weapons. Characters die in stylized ways without gory injuries; Percy's mom appears to be killed in the first episode.
Profanity
Language is very mild, mostly put-downs like "loser" and some verbal hostility between characters.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
Percy's stepdad appears to be drunk on screen and is implied to be frequently mean and irresponsible, possibly due to drinking.
