Thymos

God of fear, anger, hatred, and emotional pain. Has never been seen in any form other than a floating black cloud, and sometimes roams the worlds spreading blight.

Mortal Interactions

Thymos is quite reclusive in nature. Though he lashes out occasionally against Polemos he often times uses his agents (both demonic and mortal) to spread lies, rumors, and half-truths about his whereabouts. In this manner he can cast doubt and anxiety without having to be two places at once. The simmering fear of his purported arrival pleases him as much as the anguish he inflicts when actually does descend upon the people of Polemos.

Religions

Very few organized religions worship Thymos directly, however he attracts a cult following in even the most righteous of cultures. Beyond small groups that seek to gain power through his favor, many individuals in all lands may attempt to invoke Thymos's blight on the target of their personal anger. A common curse in Agothos, for instance, involves filling a jar with ink and placing it under the bed of the victim. Superstition says that Thymos will then come during the night and terrorize their dreams.
