Description Here is a character created for a fanfic by the good Needle, also known on dA as

Phobos, the god of Fear.

Basing on some hints Need gave me, I wanted it to represent a beast that's born from our deepest heart and feelings, something that can take control of our mind, covering our eyes with dust and smoke, so that we can only feel dark around us.
That's why my monster has a smoky look!
_________

Some people told me the character is too young to represent such a strong emotion as fear: I simply accomplished Needle/Guardasigillo's wish of Phobos being like Bleach Hitsugaya-taicho, and I liked so much a comment he wrote on saintforum.net about this point, that I wanted to translate it here for you:

**Seki did a very beautiful work with Phobos... not quite because Fear is a terrible evil that everything knocks down and warps... but mostly 'cause that awful monster is just born from our inside... it gains its strenght from us who feed it... and the totem represents all this! magnificent...
Unfortunately the mask on the breast makes him too similar to Mandragora specter...
But the rest is excellent... and the youth of our Berserker was intended too... He's young for the same reason a woman is represented in the totem... some hearts are more sensitive to Fear... to its effects and consequences... and those are children's hearts...
Children are scared more than all the other people... 'cause the uncertainty of this world they see as infinite, feeds that unknown-eating daemon... Our Phobos is a child (even younger in my fanromance) just for this reason: who can take into his own lap the fear for the future more than a child?**

Grazie Sael! Alla fine Γ¨ venuto forse troppo fumoso e orpellato... avevo fatto una versione molto piΓΉ cattiva, col drago scheletrico e le estremitΓ  tutte acuminate... ma sapeva troppo di Deimos!

Di nulla ^^
Non so, bisognerebbe vedere il paragone. Ma l'effetto fumoso a me piace, dopotutto rende bene la paura, che a volte s'insinua subdola, che è qualcosa che aleggia incosistente (il terrore è più manifesto, porta a delle reazioni più violente, la paura si può anche non farla trasparire ma cmq è lì come un fantasma all'interno della mente )
