Hephaestus's Cabin: The Forge of Heroes
Welcome to Cabin 9, where fire meets ingenuity, and machines breathe life. Home to the children of Hephaestus, god of fire, forges, blacksmiths, and technology.
Inside Hephaestus's Cabin
Cabin 9 stands as a testament to innovation and craftsmanship at Camp Half-Blood. Resembling a small factory rather than a traditional cabin, it houses the children of Hephaestus, god of fire, forges, blacksmiths, and technology.
Inside these walls, the next generation of master craftsmen and inventors work tirelessly, creating everything from magical weapons to automated defenses for the camp. The air hums with the sound of machinery and the warmth of the forges.
Cabin Details
Built from brick with smokestacks rising from the roof, Cabin #9 exudes industrial strength and functionality. Its exterior features gleaming metal plates reinforced with celestial bronze, with intricate gears and cogs embedded in the walls.
The entrance resembles a vault door, complete with mechanical locks and a glowing emblem of a hammer and anvil above it. Inside, multiple forges burn day and night, while automated assistants help with various tasks.
