** As if there weren't enough Gunmen, we find a fellow that we thought we knew about right on time, but whose early appearance we actually missed. On the exact same page we find Kalei, we find ''Ravat'', of all people. TheConspiracy in''deed.'' Not to mention one of the Indigos and Mr Nibbs, the Tower Librarian.

Dreamkeepers also has a {{webcomic}}, called [[http://www.dreamkeeperscomic.com/Prelude.php Prelude.]] It depicts the childhoods of the main characters (save for Bast who's yet to show up) and is much more light-hearted than Dreamkeepers itself. Even though everyone apparently had a rotten childhood. [[HeartwarmingOrphan Mace and Whip]] live in a run-down orphanage run by a cantankerous old sailor, while the sisters [[RebelliousPrincess Namah]] and [[PrincessClassic Lilith]] deal with their own problems of life as the daughters of the Viscount, elected leader of their city. And then there's Bast, who apparently has it worse than anyone (though it's yet to be shown in Prelude).

* TheConspiracy: The Nightmares have been working inside the Andurunian government to make the Dreamkeepers easier to conquer.



* EvilVersusEvil: Lord Void and Nabonidus fight over leadership of the Nightmares. They come to a temporary stalemate when neither is capable of overpowering the other.



* OrderVersusChaos: This is the philosophical basis of Void and Nabonidus' conflict. Void wants the Dreamkeepers annihilated and everything brought to ruin. Nabonidus wants to rule the Dreamworld instead.

* SleazyPolitician: Most of them, it seems.

He's still Viscount by the time of the graphic novels, so...

''{{Dreamkeepers}}'' is an independent comic series produced by David and Liz Lillie. It tells the tale of a small group of young Dreamkeepers, beings who live in a dream world parallel to ours and only glimpsed in dreams. Each one is tied to a human on earth, yet they are as ignorant of us as we are of them. Even so, their mere existence protects our dreaming minds from the Nightmares, villainous creatures who despise all life and wish for nothing more than its destruction. And if a Dreamkeeper is killed in the dream world, the Nightmares can attack their human counterpart unhindered.
