As per the last book in the first series, The Last Olympian, book canon has stated that all demigods should be claimed by the age of 13. Similarly it stated that all gods would have their own cabins.

Recently within the admin channel, there was discussion of whether or not having the hostel would effect that oath the gods swore on. There were multiple ideas to remedy this but the one that was decided upon is as followed…

We change the “claimed by 13” oath the gods agreed to. As a wiki we haven’t really followed this all that closely anyways, so this is just a vote to definitively say demigods can be claimed at any age, it doesn’t matter.
We change the “All gods will have a cabin” to “all gods will have some form of monument at camp". Be it a statue or something of the sort, when Percy says “all demis get a cabin” we change it to “all demis get a home”.
Further clarification on why Hermes' doesn't accept non-claimed/non-camp demigods is due to overcrowding of his own children. Thus the stance the wiki has had on non-Hermes children living in the cabin now has an explanation.

This does bring into question why, since book canon, multiple cabins have been added via new cabin contests or via previous vote. This can be explained via necessity or proper explanation. For example with Kymopoleia, Jason himself promised her a cabin at camp, and thus she was given one over other minor gods as Jason had hierarchy at camp and his dying wish would be important. New cabin contests provide home to demigods with large numbers, so explanation would stand at “a larger number of demis of one god showed up and thus a cabin was necessary”.

Brocky Good morning, Miss Goode! ❤
