Physical Description

Dream is a young looking girl of average height and build. Her hair is long and straight, and a blue-tinted white. Her eyes have the same color as her hair. Her complexion is very pale. She wears a simple, white gown.

History

Dream's first memory is of waking up in a dark room above a bunch of sleeping people hooked up to machines. She left because she found them boring and followed whoever and whatever interested her, which turned out to be quite a lot. When she first tried interacting with the world however, she found she couldn't touch it, and this caused her despair, as she was alone. Then one night, while looking at a sleeping child, she reached out and touched her, and discovered she could enter peoples dreams.

Abilities

Dream does not exist in the physical world, though she can experience some aspects of it. In the physical world, she isn't bound by the same restrictions as humans. She does not require food, breath, or sleep, nor does she age. She can also fly through the air and pass through obstacles.
Dream also has the ability to enter peoples dreams and shape them to her desire. This grants her the virtual ability to become anything she wants or do whatever she wishes… so long as the owner of the dream allows her to. However, dreams hold memories, and some dreamers may wish to keep those hidden.

Powers

Concealment

CONCEALMENT (11 PP)
Effect: Sensory
Action: Free
Range: Personal
Duration: Permanent
Ranks: 10
Using this effect, you gain total concealment from a particular sense — usually sight or hearing — although you are still detectable to other senses (even other senses of the same sense type). Each additional rank gives you concealment from another sense; two ranks give you concealment for an entire sense type. Concealment from visual senses costs double (2 ranks for normal sight, 4 ranks for all visual senses). You cannot have concealment from tactile senses, for that, see Insubstantial (see page 89). So at rank 5, you can have total concealment from all visual senses (4 ranks) and normal hearing (1 rank), for example. At rank 10 you have total concealment from all sense types, except tactile.
While concealed, you can make surprise attacks against targets unaware of your presence (see Surprise Attack, page 163). Attackers have a 50% miss chance against you (a roll of 11 or better on d20). Attackers able to perceive you with an accurate sense suffer no penalties, and combat is resolved normally.
Someone can sense the presence of a concealed character at close range (30 feet) with an acute sense (see Super-Senses, page 102) and a DC 20 Notice check (for example using hearing to detect a character concealed from sight). The observer gains a hunch “something’s there” but can’t perceive or target it accurately. A concealed character holding still is harder to notice (DC 30). An inanimate object or a completely immobile creature is very hard to notice at close range (DC 40). It’s practically impossible (+20 DC) to accurately pinpoint a concealed character’s location using an acute sense, and even if the searcher succeeds on such a check, the character still benefits from total concealment.
Power Feats:
Close Range — The “close range” where someone can sense your presence with an acute sense is 5 feet rather than 30 feet.
Extras:.
Duration — Continuous.
Flaws:
Limited — Does not work inside of dream worlds.
Permanent.

Dream Control

DREAM CONTROL (31 PP)
Effect: Illusion, Limited
Action: Standard
Range: Perception
Duration: Sustained
Saving Throw: Will (Special)
Ranks: 10
You can project dreams into a subject’s mind while they sleep, causing them to experience whatever you want while they dream. This works like an Illusion effect at your power rank, with the added benefit that most subjects do not tend to disbelieve dreams, since they already know they are not real. The Game Master should judge circumstances of disbelief in your crafted dream images accordingly.
The dreams are full sensory experiences and seem particularly vivid and realistic (as much as you choose to make them). The dreams you craft are just that, dreams, and have no direct effect on the subject, although troubling dreams may cause loss of sleep or have other psychological effects. The GM may call for a power check or an appropriate skill check (such as Bluff or Intimidate) to measure the effectiveness of any psychological tactics. The superstitious may believe especially vivid dreams are visions, divine guidance, or evidence of possession or other supernatural troubles.
To affect a subject, you must either be able to accurately perceive them while they are sleeping, or you must “tag” them with your power while they are awake (and you can accurately perceive them). So long as you sustain your Dream Control power until the next time the victim sleeps, the power will take hold then and the subject will begin to dream as you direct.
Power Feats: Triggered — With this feat you can “tag” a subject (as described previously) without needed to maintain Dream Control; the power activates automatically the next time the subject goes to sleep. You can either pre-program a particular dream sequence or choose to oversee and direct it, as you prefer.

Dream Travel

DREAM TRAVEL (10 PP)
Effect: Mind Reading, Limited
Action: Move
Range: Perception
Duration: Sustained
Saving Throw: Will
Ranks: 10
You can mentally enter the dreams of a sleeping subject, experiencing them as if you were a character within the dream (since, essentially, that is what you become). You must be able to accurately perceive your subject (possibly with an accurate mental sense) and the subject makes a Will saving throw; if successful, you cannot enter the subject’s dreams and must use extra effort to try again during that same sleep period. If the subject’s save fails, you enter the subject’s dream scape and can remain there as long as you maintain your Dream Travel power. Your physical body remains in a deep trance (like sleep) while you are using Dream Travel.
While in the dream scape, you can perceive whatever the subject is dreaming, which may give you useful insight into the subject’s psyche (and a +2 circumstance bonus for skill checks like interaction and behavioral sciences). With a successful Bluff check against the target’s Sense Motive check result, you can provoke a particular piece of information from the subject’s mind to manifest in the dream, allowing you to learn it.
You can also engage the dream-self of the subject in a mental grapple (see Mental Grapple, M&M, page 157) and the dreamer can also attempt to mentally grapple you. A dreamer can choose to eject you from the dream if successful in mentally pinning you. Since a mental grapple can inflict damage, it’s possible for this dream struggle to harm you or your subject.
You retain the use of your mental skills and your mental sensory effects while in a subject’s dream, and they retain the same capabilities. Your other traits are irrelevant and have no bearing on the dream; so even if you “wrestle” a super-strong subject in a dream, it is really a mental grapple and physical strength has no effect. For the power to influence dream “reality” see the Dream Control power (previously), or acquire suitable mental powers, particularly Illusion and Mental Blast.

Flight

FLIGHT (1 PP)
Effect: Movement
Action: Move
Range: Personal
Duration: Sustained
Ranks: 1
You can fly through the air, including hovering in place. You have a flying speed of 10 MPH at rank 1. Each additional rank moves your speed one step up the Time and Value Progression Table: 25 MPH at rank 2, 50 MPH at rank 3, and so forth. At rank 19, you can reach anywhere on Earth in a single move action. At rank 20, you can accelerate to near the speed of light!
Flaws:
Limited — Does not work inside of dream worlds.

Immunity

IMMUNITY (11 PP)
Effect: Defense
Action: Reaction
Range: Personal
Duration: Permanent
Ranks: 11 (Aging, Life Support, Sleep)
You are immune to certain effects, automatically succeeding on any saving throws or ability checks against them. You assign ranks of Immunity to various effects (with more extensive effects requiring more ranks). These assignments are permanent.

Insubstantial

INSUBSTANTIAL (16 PP)
Effect: Alteration
Action: Free
Range: Personal
Duration: Permanent
Ranks: 4
You can assume a less solid form, with each Insubstantial rank becoming progressively less solid. You do not gain the ability to assume lower-ranked Insubstantial forms, but you can acquire a lower-ranked form as an Alternate Power feat of a higher-ranked one (see page 108). You can switch between normal and an Insubstantial form at will as a free action once per round.
Rank 4: You become incorporeal. You can pass through solid matter at your normal speed and you are unaffected by physical and energy attacks. Mental and sensory effects still work on you, as do powers with the Affects insubstantial power feat. Choose one other reasonably common effect that works on you while you are incorporeal. You have no Strength and cannot affect the physical world unless you purchase the Affects Corporeal modifier on one or more of your abilities or powers. Your mental and sensory effects still work normally.
Extas:
Duration — Continuous.
Flaws:
Limited — Does not work inside of dream worlds.
Permanent.

Luck Control

Universal Translator

UNIVERSAL TRANSLATOR (8 PP)
Effect: Comprehend Languages 4
Action: Reaction
Range: Personal
Duration: Continuous
Sometimes known as the “Babel Effect,” you can understand any spoken or written language, and anyone who hears you speak hears your words in their native tongue, whatever it may be.

Game-play Logs

Power Points Earned/Spent: 2/0

• 1 hour with Alexander (GMing) (+1 PP): Dream came across a fight, and seeing Alexander unconscious she entered his mind. She found memories of the saddest parts of his life replaying over and over. She began to communicate with the part of Alex that knew he was asleep, and he showed her more memories as she dived deeper into his mind to find him. Eventually, she found the real Alex in the maelstrom of memories, and began to piece together memories with a positive emotion, showing that Alex was not as weak as he felt he was. When asked who she was, she replied that she was a friend, and let his dream fade.
• 1 hour with Galaxi (GMing) (+1 PP): Dream came across a sleeping Galaxi, and entered her dreams. She was ignored initially, until she removed a manifestation of Galaxi's first lover. Galaxi proceeded to chase her, whereby Dream turned the world into a pack of wolves hunting a white deer in the woods. When this ended, Dream tortured Galaxi with fake memories of her killing Cosmekala until Galaxi woke up. She never revealed why she did it.
