So this idea is inspired by The Sandman to start with and while I don’t usually do cannon characters, Dream is an exception in this case and I would like the other character to be original. I am willing to play from either side of the pairing and I’m actually hoping to do one of each. I prefer the pairing to be m/m but I am open to m/f and f/f too. I am also open to adding in the other Endless if you are willing to double. All PCs will be 18+. Dream had been betrayed. Ensnared by an amateur, captured in a binding circle, and further bonded by a containment sphere and all for what? The demands made in return for his freedom are beyond his abilities and well beyond what this mortal deserved to be given, so he reminded silent. He stayed imprisoned for decades, never speaking a word, though there was a light in these dark times. His Jessamay, his faithful raven companion who had fled when he was first captured, became his eyes and ears of the outside world. The waking world, as he knows it, has become a mess since his imprisonment. A sleeping sickness has spread across the world, and the longer he was away from the dreaming the more mortals succumbed to it. Some would long for sleep that never came. Some became perpetual sleepwalkers. But most just never woke up, they fell asleep and lived out their lives in the dreaming until their bodies betrayed them. But Jessamay was a cunning raven, she also showed him the good in the world, the dreamers that dared to inspire others. Fulfilling his purpose in his absence.

She took a keen interest in the residence of the home he was imprisoned in, as did he, she watched their movements. Watched the children of the house and servants grow into adults, oblivious to the prisoner in the basement, if not the cruelty of their master in time. Such cruelty left most of them jaded to the rest of the world, but only most. There was one, a true dreamer, that did not let such things dull the world’s beauty for them. That was his target, this mortal was his only reasonable hope for escape, considering his siblings have not made any intention to rescue him that he is aware of. He beckoned Jessamay to reveal herself to the mortal, to establish trust, so that she may guide the way to his release.

Heya @Baz! RPHQ is moving RP Starters into the new forum channel format. If you're still interested in this starter, can you repost it to either #sfw-starters or #nsfw-starters? Once you do, I'll archive this channel - regardless, all existing starters will be archived on September 2nd. Thanks!
