Phobos (Ancient Greek: Φόβος, lit. 'flight, fright', pronounced [pʰóbos], Latin: Phobus) is the god and personification of fear and panic in Greek mythology. Phobos was the son of Ares and Aphrodite, and the brother of Deimos. He does not have a major role in mythology outside of being his father's attendant.

In Classical Greek mythology, Phobos exists as both the god of and personification of the fear brought by war.

His name is transliterated in Latin as Phobus, but his counterpart in Roman mythology is Pavor or Terror.

About Krampus Eggs

There is a tradition among Ark residents to leave bread and milk outside their homes at night during December to bribe the Krampuses to stay away. Homes that do not do this may wake up to find an unwelcome guest in their homes, Krampus eggs.

About the Krampus Creature

From the moment of hatching Krampuses are always causing trouble. The mischief caused starts out small while the Krampus is young and grows as the Krampus becomes older and more cunning. Many stories say that this mischief is to punish the family for not honoring the Krampuses with food and drink. Once a Krampus reaches maturity it will leave the home it was left in and join the larger Krampus community that lives deep within the Coldworld.
