Index > Issues to be Voted on by Level 5's and up > Level 5's and Up/New Phobetor Powers - Passed

Phobetor is the god of nightmares, brother to Morpheus and Phantasos, and son of Hypnos and Pasithea. His scope is based largely upon his linkage to the dreamscape recently established in canon.

As with any power set voting, this vote will remain open until it meets the needed requirements of 12 votes with a 3 vote margin.

Special thanks to Toxy, Sean and Fish, who all gave me amazing ideas and helped out with wording <3

FILOKSENIA

Set

Offensive

1. Children of Phobetor can induce a hallucinogenic state in their targets, making them see their worst nightmares. Although it’s just a realistic illusion, the distortion of the target’s reality debilitates them, causing confusion, headaches, and dizziness. The bigger the change in perception, the more drained the user will be.
2. Children of Phobetor can blast their targets with raw streams of what has been dubbed ‘dark matter’; that is, negative emotions of fear drawn from nightmares that have been harnessed into energy that can throw the target around or create lasting damage whilst evoking a deep sense of fear. Prolonged use will result in exhaustion.

Defensive

1. Children of Phobetor can invoke a false sense of security in opponents for a time, making them regard the user as harmless and not worth fighting. This effect is broken once the user acts overtly threatening toward them.
2. Children of Phobetor can spiritually trap their opponent in the astral plane for a short period of time, where they will be severely debilitated, feeling nauseous and dizzy with headaches because of the detachment of their soul from their physical body; however, they are also in the astral plane and thus cannot physically attack their opponent. Prolonged use of this power will severely debilitate the user. This may also affect some of their opponent’s powers if it depends on their physical forms.

Passive

1. Children of Phobetor heal faster during their sleep.
2. Children of Phobetor can make anyone in close proximity feel simultaneously tired and on edge, with a sense of dread and fear accumulating at the pit of their stomachs.
3. Children of Phobetor have a high, innate level of proficiency in navigating the dreamscape and lucidly sculpting it to shape into nightmares, dreams, create projections, or simply navigate it.
4. Children of Phobetor can communicate with others via nightmares.
5. Children of Phobetor can communicate with animals.

Supplementary

1. Children of Phobetor can telepathically probe the minds of others, sensing their fears, insecurities and traumatic memories. They may struggle to zero in on deeper fears, however, and the target can notice and resist them if they are too forceful.
2. Children of Phobetor can sprout wings from their backs. The longer they fly, the more drained they will be.
3. Children of Phobetor can absorb or feed off of the fears and nightmares experienced by their opponent, making them feel debilitated while the child of Phobetor is stronger and faster with enhanced senses and reflexes.
4. Children of Phobetor can create nightmare illusions that warp the opponent’s perception of reality and make them see things that aren’t there; it isn’t physical, but a trick of sight. The bigger the illusion, the more they are drained.
5. Children of Phobetor are able to astral project, which they can use for a variety of purposes. However, their physical body is vulnerable, and they cannot affect anything on the physical plane while astral projecting.

3 Months After Character is Made

1. Children of Phobetor can create several shadowy, monster-like figures that embody their opponent’s biggest nightmare no more than three times the user’s size to fight alongside them. The longer this power is used and the more manifestations created, the more drained the user will be.

6 Months After Character is Made

1. Children of Phobetor can shed their flesh and adopt any form they are capable of visualizing. Because their father is said to shift into animals to lure his victims into a peaceful slumber before attacking their dreams as a monster, all his children have a similar gift; as animals, their targets will feel more at ease, but with any other form, partially or fully completed, there will be a horrible feeling of dread and fear invoked. The longer this alternate form is maintained, and the more complex, the more drained the user will be.

9 Months After Character is Made

1. Children of Phobetor are able to transform the surrounding area into their own dream-world, an alternate reality fabricated from the nightmares of everyone inside. Anyone within 30 meters of the user will be trapped within the dream world, and it will naturally reshape to reflect their deepest fears. The user is completely immune to all attacks while in the dream world and can freely adopt any form they desire. After a short time, the dream-world reverts to a normal environment and the user is left incredibly drained. The user will not be able to move and could possibly faint.

Traits

1. Children of Phobetor can more easily interpret prophetic dreams because of their father’s scope.
2. Children of Phobetor generally tend to like horror movies and morbid or typically scary holidays, like Halloween.
3. Children of Phobetor usually make excellent psychologists and therapists because of their ability to interpret others’ dreams and nightmares.
4. Children of Phobetor tend to be very morbid, pessimistic and/or nihilistic.
5. Children of Phobetor often prefer to be in the company of animals rather than humans.
6. Children of Phobetor usually prefer to spend most of their time in their dreamscape, navigating the otherworld consciously and expertly because of their innate mastering of the realm.
