The fourth discovered colossi, and the first that appeared to be somewhat actively aggressive to the people who first found her. As well as their offspring afterwards.

First encountered protecting a mysterious burial mound for a civilization long dead and forgotten. Who ever found the first Phaedra got a rude awakening in that not all of the colossi are completely peaceful in a way. Though apparently, this didn't matter in the slightest.

Competing with Pelagia, the twelfth colossus for the second largest quadruped. Both standing at around 27 meters or 89ft. Phaedra's are the only colossi to have a centaur body-type and while their lower body formulates some of a horse's features albeit covered in stone. Their legs and arms are spindly and taper to blunted points. The underbellies of their 'horse' half are exposed and reveal massive stony ribs. Damaging these exposed areas are rather hard to do and produce seemingly no harmful effect other than make them lighter. They're hard to damage because they're also made out of stone. The lower backs of these colossi are covered in a grey-blue fur and are wide enough to rest more than enough normal sized humanoids on them. They have short unflexible tails that are carved in such a way that it would be easy to latch onto if the Phaedra leaned down. Each Phaedra has this headress of a sort where two ornaments hang down from. While they appear to be physically apart of this stone centaur, they can be taken off with ease. Also, yes, despite the colossi not having genders at the start of where ever they came from, Phaedra's have two areas where a dick can be stuck in and a baby can come out of. You know centaurs at this point, I don't need to tell you where they are.

Set to protect tumuluses wherever they came from, this set of guidelines still persist in the newborns of the 'Kirin.' And as such, as soon as they are able to leave home they will set off to find such a location to guard. However, unlike the knight; Gaius or gatekeeper; Argus. A Phaedra upon finding such a place that they were usually supposed to protect, they neither actively destroy or stop others from harming such monuments. Only the first Phaedra had a persistant desire to do so, and it was a very small desire comparetively. Though there are a few that actually respect the dead and will go out of their way to stop necromancers and the like from grave-robbing. With very good results in each actual defense. If it's one that doesn't exactly care, as long as the grave-robber doesn't actively disturb the colossi, than nothing would come of it. If they did however, they would of course be chased off with extreme prejudice.

Bitterness of a sort easily whells up in these centaur colossi, and for those that are attacked or stolen from countless times eventually give up and vindictively attack all those that dare enter the vicinity. Believing any to be a potential user of dark magic or looking to make a quick buck off someone's precious family memories. Though this can be stopped early on by those willing to talk to the colossi instead of run-away. Another source of bitterness that makes this process all the more faster. It should be noted, that like any other mamono, they do not kill unless under the two specfic circumstances and of course. Their attacks only deal damage to the spirit rather the body no matter how seemingly a dangerous an attack can potentially be... like being stepped on.

Those that to attempt to strike up a conversation with a Phaedra can be a confusing experience. As many a community who has one of these stone centaurs never attempt to teach them how to talk, more or less out of fear or their forebodingness. For the Phaedra herself, she will most likely be extremely freaked out as this has never happened before. The noises a Phaedra makes naturally are that of a high-pitched, deer-like whining noises and all she will able to produce is more or less a squeak or yelp in response. She will attempt to distance herself from this person to avoid even more embarssment, probably adding to the already mounting confusion. However, if this person persists, it actually doesn't take that long for a stone centaur to learn langague and eventually pleasentries will be able to be exchanged. This will drastically reduce the bitterness that a Phaedra will experience in their long life and make them able to properly distiguish people and therefore not attack indiscriminately for fear of everyone being a potential threat.

As with all colossi, if a Phaedra encounters a man they fancy (more or less this is him if he helped them learn how to talk or at the very least, talked to them once or twice.) The burning sensation combined with it's unfamiliarity will cause them to panic and as a one of a kind situation. Phaedra while in a calm state, are able to control their size, in a state like this. It causes them to shrink to a more reasonable level. A situation that only causes their hearts to beat only faster and go even more into a daze. If the man knows what to do, and are able to calm them down, their feelings for them will further entwine and would desperately wish to want whatever this is to be completed or wherever it leads too.

If the man doesn't know what to do, the Phaedra will leave them to be left alone and calm their beating organs or try too... at the least. Vengeful, for whatever crime he seemed to commit she will attack him upon sighting him again, although, the panic in their heart will only cause them to shrink and than possibly break down crying. Though those of stronger will, will be able to finally know what to do and rape the man to calm their raging urges. A experience that makes them feel sorry for what they have done so suddenly and without consent. Though she will not leave him, for she loves these new sensations and the man himself. With this, they feel no desire to their old home and will gladly follow him wherever he might go.

Phaedra's when married initally don't try to be a housewife, knowing at this point their nature to easily panic. They think that it will be no different with all of these new things and will watch how the man does things before attempting herself on anything. Unless her curiosity overrides her caution on something. Though they will not say they want any kind of help on anything if they do try and actually don't know. It should be noted that when in a smaller form, they can change their arm's blunted edges into hands of stone.

It is said that the first colossi were all from a forgotten land or perhaps a spirit realm, displaced along with their surrounding locations into this world. If true, it would make a bit of sense if they came from Invasive as that is that spirit realm's gimmick. However, the colossi and akrids are not similar in any way. Only one of the colossi show explict reptilian traits and none of them insectiod. Rendering that theory moot. Whatever the case, when asked, even they don't know... instead all that remains is a large tangible gap in their memory. A implication that is quite disturbing.
