ABILITIES
DREAMWALKING
This is the big one. He can navigate the dream realms and walk through dreams. This can give him access to people's subconscious and can look a lot like telepathy. He is capable of changing things within a person's mind while doing this, but he prefers to not to and won't do it lightly
DREAM MANIPULATION
While in a dream he can manipulate and control the setting and surroundings. He can also manifest things out of thin air. Essentially, in dreams he can do whatever the fuck he wants. Reality is irrelevant in the dream realms
CANON TYPICAL MAGIC
Technically he can perform spells and such just like other medians in canon, but it's generally not particularly powerful when he's awake and anchored to reality. The one exception to this we see in canon is when he gets emotional or upset he can create enough heat to cause at least some harm, so it could be his magic in reality is somewhat tied to his emotional state. Who the fuck knows though, Olivie Blake doesn't like to actually explain anything. See his app for a little more info.

What do your characters dreams look like? Generally, Matt's dreamscape overlaps with his mindscape in general. He tends to dream in terms of his conception of magic/universal harmony, so there's a lot of deep sea and space imagery, or places that might be both at once. But he also has normal dreams about normal stuff, with your average dream logic (recognizing people he's never met, time weirdness, incongruous architecture). Additionally, Matt has recurring nightmares about the demon he summoned as a teenager, which manifests as black shadow.

I would love to get into that. Matt's only told one person in Salt about the demon so far, so it'd be cool to explore
opt in! hao zhang
What do your characters dreams look like? bloody, gory. generally murdery, usually featuring a spike-laden baseball bat charmed with magic for extra effectiveness against his foes. lots of slain creatures, but especially demons. lots of internal feelings of seemingly unquenchable bloodlust to the point where he feels like he's gonna vibrate out of his skin. sorry 2 this boy, i'm sure this won't be upsetting at all. sprinkle in the occasional normal ass gay horny teen boy fantasy just for funsies.

What do your characters dreams look like? Generally they are boring ordinary man dreams, sometimes distorted memories from his life. When he was asleep for a month he dreamt of hearing the ghosts speaking, and fire and blood, and Armand murmuring to him about the game, and Matt's 70s music mixtape, a big jumble of external stimuli that his subconscious was overwhelmed by as it tried to instinctively retreat.

What do your characters dreams look like? When he dreams, he typically has nightmares — and most of these nightmares feature Cazador Szarr. He fears being brought back under Szarr's heel; his nightmares involve both being chased and the worst of the punishments he suffered, namely being stowed away in a coffin for a full year.

Marazhai's mind will absolutely take the shape of his home "dimension" (it's complicated but also dw about it), Commoragh, ans specifically the interior of a Spire. It's a Drukhari equivalent of a palace, since he's essentially a prince, but everything about the architecture and presentation just gives off "harsh" vibes. It's sharp angles, sickly greens, and absolutely no natural light—It's a dimension with no sun, no flora, no fauna, etc. There's likely also an undercurrent of pain and I'll intentionally leave that up to interpretation because it can mean a lot of things/all of them. Physical, emotional, his own, other peoples',etc. It's a very key part of his culture.
Even his more innocuous/nonsensical dreams are going to be extremely unpleasant and likely a nightmare to anyone else. His culture is incredibly harsh and vicious, and even as he's gotten more aquainted with humanity, it's not like they're having a good time of things either. His canon/setting is just Grimdark™️ that way.
Recurring dreams are about torture (of himself, of giving to others), fighting to his death in an arena of spectators, and being devoured by an unseen entity.
things are real normal in his brain can you tell,,,

What do your characters dreams look like? His subconscious is a mess. His dreams, though rare, will most likely touch on his childhood and the constant series of tests (amounting to torture) that comprised it; the biggest themes running through his head have to do with strength and the isolation that comes with power.
opt-in; emmrich volkarin.
What do your characters dreams look like? Most of Emmrich's dreams are incredibly dry, as they pertain to his research into the Fade, but every now and then he'll dream about his childhood in the Necropolis or his status in the Mourn Watch, e.g. that he's close to achieving immortality but could potentially die if the ritual to achieve it went wrong. Lots of skull imagery; lots of pale blues/greens.

What do your characters dreams look like? she has a recurring dream about the members of one direction falling in love with her, you're welcome parisa, she also has incredibly vivid dreams about being a barbara walters-esque new anchor/interviewer and interviewing various and sundry famous people; torture is also a theme that comes up in her more nightmarish dreams and a recurring nightmare of losing her dad because she becomes a monster and kills him herself; when her brain is trying to unwind itself she's just wandering through the woods, some spots are nice (a warm clearing, the pond/creek, a heathery meadow) and others are less nice (the tomb, the well, the lockwood cellar, her dad's torture chamber)
