PhobiaVerse Michelangelo, representative of pyrophobia.

(Despite being the most powerful of his siblings, Mikey is generally the gentlest of the five. His endless optimism that one day, humans will accept them as living, thinking beings is what drives his bale to continue on.)

Please be aware: PhobiaVerse features potentially triggering themes, such as:

death, violence, suicidal ideation, survivors guilt, PTSD, body dysmorphia, metaphors for addiction, frequent consumption of blood as a form of sustenance, past child torture, past experimentation on sentient beings, dehumanization, and MULTIPLE common phobias featured very very very frequently.

(Note: all characters featured in PhobiaVerse are adults in their mid to late twenties. The biggest themes of this AU are healing, coming to terms with childhood trauma, and unlearning dangerous coping mechanisms and/or habits years after the fact.)

PhobiaVerse Leonardo, representative of hemophobia.

(Don't let the silly demeanor fool you—he's the most dangerous of his bale. He has no other choice if he wants to have any hope of protecting them.)
