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.
