I actually have a few fears for my character, but most of them are completely ridiculous fears based on stories he heard as a child that were merely superstition or just made up entirely by whoever told him the story. Â He'll slowly overcome some of them, but it won't be an instantaneous change. Â
The humorous part is I'm loosely basing it on my own experiences. Â I spent a good deal of my youth in and out of hospitals or confined to home, so I never had a chance to realize a lot of what my relatives told me was completely false until I was in my mid teens. Â Even upon learning that something I feared wasn't what I thought it was, it still took a while for me to drop the fear completely because it was so ingrained.
