History Characters / PathfinderDream

* DreamStealer: Dreamscrapers invade the dreams of sleeping mortals to scrape away at their minds and steal their dreams, leaving them raw and tired upon waking. After returning to the Dimension of Dreams with their prizes, they store, trade or offer them up to heinous masters.

* {{Tulpa}}: Animate dreams are living beings created when especially strong and imaginative minds leave lasting imprints of their dreams on the Ethereal Plane, and need to constantly draw upon imagination and willpower to sustain and affirm their existence.

* {{Tulpa}}: Ikeloses begin life in dreamscapes as recurring nightmares. When they've fed on enough fear, they create bodies from planar gossamer that can survive even as their dreamscapes crumble. Eventually, a mature ikelos rides its dreamer back to the Material Plane.

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pathfinder_feargaunt.PNG]]
->'''Level:''' 9

Nightmares that persist after the waking of their dreamer.

* NightmareSequence: Their appearance in someone's dreamscape turns it into one of these.
* SupernaturalFearInducer: They have a Nightmare Aura that distorts the world around them with darkened shadows, subtle rot, and skewed perspective to all who view it, inflicting the shaken condition and preventing dreamers from accomplishing unrealistic feats.
* TouchOfDeath: Feargaunts have an incorporeal touch attack that deals high untyped damage, bypasses any damage resistance, and deals Charisma bleed if the target is suffering from a fear affect.

[[folder:Ikelos]]
->'''Level:''' 7

->'''Size:''' Medium

* EmotionEater: Ikeloses draw sustenance from fear.
* TheRival: The creature most similar to ikeloses is the animate dream; the latter are nonspecific fragments of a single dream, while the former are specific figures that build up strength across multiple dreams. Ikeloses and animate dreams each believe themselves to be superior to the other, and almost always fight when encountering each other.
* SupernaturalFearInducer: An ikelos's gaze can paralyse foes with fear and is often enough to extract the emotion it needs.

[[caption-width-right:350:A dreamspawn hungry fog.]]
->'''Level Adjustment:''' +1
->'''New Alignment:''' Any Evil

When the lucid bodies of dreamers are killed in certain corrupted areas of the Dimension of Dreams, their nightmarish final moments can drag their murdering creature into the Dimension of Dreams and strand them between the sleeping and waking worlds. These creatures can physically manifest through the corpse of the dreamer they killed to create them and seek to bond to new corpses as the original body decays.//
