Dreamspace - Signups and OOC

Like Winger said, this is a dual-endeavor, but expect me to be more of a GM’s assistant, discussing certain things behind the scenes and nudging things when they need nudging. Make no mistake; I still hold just as much power in terms of moderating the game, so heed my glorious, inspired, and not at all over-exaggerated warnings.

Otherwise, though, treat me as a fellow player. I came here to write, not to moderate, so don’t make me :stuck_out_tongue:

Now I’m gonna post a signup. Keep in mind you shouldn’t use this profile as direct inspiration for yours as it is not formatted correctly ; Winger already pre-approved the character concept beforehand. It’s a good example of what you may receive as details on your nightmare, but that, of course, is Winger’s decision.


Name : Basil Tuffin
Info : Male, 9, 3’10" (not counting ears), has a small grey blanket to conceal himself
Appearance : Post-nightmare, Basil has large bat-like ears and a flat, wrinkled nose. He wears bluish-grey shorts and has noticeably long arms and noticeably short legs, making it natural and convenient to walk on all fours. Solid yellow eyes rest in his head above separated cheek wrinkles, and what hair he has is thick and matted together on his scalp. His canines are long and sharp, and his eyes turn a dusky orange during bloodlust.

Dream : The ability to never grow up, much akin to Peter Pan. This manifests in the form of… Exactly what it sounds like.
Nightmare : Getting turned into a half-bat blood-sucking monster. As you can probably guess, this also exactly how it sounds - Basil can react quicker than normal, has massive bat-like ears that greatly enhance his hearing (and susceptibility to loud or high-pitched noises), extremely capable climbing abilities allowing him to climb on walls and ceilings with relative ease (monkey-related sick beats begin playing) , and eyes that work excellently in the night but not super great during the day, rendering his distance vision poor.
He also has Bloodlust, a state he enters involuntarily where his strength and speed are heightened, his manner becomes somewhat feral, and he has a strong desire to consume blood. It may last for minutes or hours and does not appear to have any definite triggers, but the smell of blood surely doesn’t help. His memory of events during this transformation is fuzzy, but may improve over time…

Backstory : Basil Tuffin was born into poverty well after the world had begun to crumble. Even as those who sided with MENDAX rose higher and higher into power and wealth, his family remained on the street. But that didn’t stop Basil from thriving wherever he could, and his family, while militaristic in their relationships, continued on as if nothing had changed.
In fact, that was one thing Basil had noticed: everyone under the watchful eye of MENDAX appeared happier than they ever were, no matter their circumstance. So the appearance of the cracked SNOVA copycat only confused things. Why would people try to escape when the SNOVA pill made them so happy?
Repeatedly he was instructed never to attempt anything with it. Many times he was told to never even think about trying it. And when he chose to break his conduct, it was the cracked version he decided to try.
Personality : Basil is cheery, peppy, adventurous, and rambunctious. Any problem he tackles with a smile and a laugh. In fact, he’d probably love being able to climb on walls and hear distant sounds if he wasn’t completely scared out of his skin.
Vices : A compelling sweet tooth. Willing to go out of his way - sometimes into deliberate danger - just for the opportunity to nab something sweet. He detests violence, although boodlust overrides this notion. He also has fits of the blackest depression at times, likely due to his new form, and it’s lead to some… Dangerous thoughs. A possible trigger for bloodlust.
Oh, and if he disagrees with you, you will likely hear him refer to you as a ‘stingbum’ in the moment. He doesn’t know what it means, though.


Alright, that’s enough outta me. Get signing up already!
