He is also a son of Poseidon (like all cyclopes). His cyclopes clan thought he is a betrayer to their clan so they left him on the steets. He also happens to be Percy’s half brother. He looks exactly like a human kid except he has only one eye which can be easily blinded. He is also sensitive to words and can be offended easily. But no matter, he is strong enough to crack and knock over a fire bull (which happens to be made out of bronze).

There, Percy manages to free Grover and Annabeth and Tyson defeat Polyphemus. In the end, they go back to camp, but a new camper came in.
