A very odd spirit.

If you communicate with it, why ask us and nkot it what it is and why it appears to you the way it does?

Welcome to the wonderful world of Modern God Archetypes, LOL! I have a similar situation, except I see Transformers. They're my guardians and act as helpers to the Gods. It gets really surreal sometimes :) The idea behind Modern God Archetypes is that today's superheros and villains are tomorrow's Gods and Guardians. Plus sometimes the Gods have a wicked sense of humor :)

I've found that guardians will take forms of things we're most comfortable with or forms that we may relate to best. As already suggested, you can always have a one on one with Red and find out why he's showing himself to you as he is. As long as he's friendly and helpful, I wouldn't worry about Red's appearance.

Good luck to you :)

Its compulsory for you to get rid of the spirit. It doesn't hurt you? Fine. But its gonna be affecting some area of your life of which you won't know. I think its better for you to get rid of it early.
