Phobia (sfm)

sfm = smile for me... ( i've been dragged down into the fandom pit r u Happy,, idk why i did him first instead of my sona but shrugs )

despite the fact phobias always smiling, he's never happy until you, you know, make him genuinely smile in-game ( in the sketch art the one with sparklies is his genuine smile )

a little spider who happened to join the habitat due to wanting to relax. likely stressed out by some amount of negative events, and decided to take his shady business escapades here. he likes creeping out people and seems to like dr. habit.

phobia has multiple missions, but his main gimmick is that he runs a quiz based on your items and other things like what characters have done or what you need to cheer them up. you present him items which are considered answers, and giving them to him will basically tell him if your wrong or right. if you fail the quiz you need to retake it another day, likely with randomized questions. tl;dr its an item quiz.

- you can likely only take his quiz once you've cheered up a certain amount of people - or he shows up once you've cheered up everybody in the lounge, likely hearing about his quiz through dr. habits little psas. depending on when you take the quiz the questions will allow the newer characters quest-items and such

- after you finish the quiz he'll be slightly happier and you can start his actual questline, which goes by from giving him a bug to help ( read: eat ) and probably one last quest but i haven't thought of that one yet. he is located in the carnival, which is also where his quizgame is - he's a vendor until you finish it. likely gives you an item as a present saying he's being "gracious" which probably starts another questline ( probably another OC one )

- once you finish his quest he can be found either in the lounge ( maybe drinking ) or in the boiler room ( he's a spider, he likes gross damp areas ). he also gives you a hint as to where the toothbrush item is after finishing his quests by saying something about how he remembered a certain part of the wall being fragile

- you can retake the quiz if you'd like ( the questions still add on depending on how many people you've cheered up ), but he won't be there and will be replaced by a paper-puppet

- calls the main character "flower bug" but will call them "flower pest" if he's angry with them. really does not like being disagreed to outside of the quiz and will become rather unhappy if you tell him no even if he didnt say anything

- if punched, he'll say: "ohhh that adds up to 1 billion dollars! fees and whatnot for assault."

- he is optional, and if the 11/22 ending is triggered his face is replaced with a spider
