how detrimental to the party would a large sized melee fighter be to have a phobia of small sized creatures and smaller.
do you think it'd be better for the overall game to have the phobia tiny and smaller?
Should he, instead, have a phobia of every creature BIGGER than himself?

Gnomes and halflings are small, so I think it would be problematic to have a phobie of small creatures and smaller.

Also, if you go with tiny and smaller, does that include housecats, insects, fish ...? Kind of hard to play such a character.

Or do you mean only 'monsters' trigger the phobia?

I'd go with a type of creatures rather than size. (And by type, I don't necessarily mean types as defined in the MM but rather, say, anything looking spiderish, or having tentacles or ... Well, I think you see what I mean. )
