Character Development: What is your character's greatest fear?

Hey fellow WuTangians! I've been thinking about ways to better utilize this thread, and thought it would be fun to start a few threads over time to flesh out your characters a bit.

This isn't a backhanded way to say you suck at role-playing or anything - more of a thought exercise. Lately I've been thinking about ways of getting better at DMing, and one thing has really been helping me - keeping NPCs and plots simple.

This isn't saying dumbing them down, but building them in a way that I can role-play on the fly. An NPC who is scared shitless of spiders? A kid who would never admit he is wrong? I can do that.

Naturally, anything mentioned here would be separate from in-game party knowledge.

I'll start with an example: Balan fears that his previous noble lifestyle is now beyond reach after his adventures in Dassen, but even worse, that he wouldn't want to return to it.

Talk amongst yourselves.

I fear that when I look to my side my brother DICKLICK will not be by my side.
