Event Log: Dreamwalker the Second

[hadrielmods]

Who: All characters participating in the event
What: The event log for the Dreamwalker part 2 event
Where: In your dreams
When: October 14th-20th (the second log will go up on Oct 23rd, please keep the two weeks of the event separate!)
Warnings: All different kinds of dreams falling under the umbrella of Delight, Rage, Sorrow, and Hope.

This time, the weird stuff doesn't happen when you're awake- as a matter of fact, your waking hours are the normal ones. That's because you're forced to sleep by some unknown entity, getting more and more exhausted by the moment as night falls. Better make sure you're always around a soft pillow.

Once asleep, it doesn't get any less weird- your dreams will be influenced by one of the four gods that make up the first week. Something to make you smile, something to make you angry- or something that reminds you of your deepest regret or most vulnerable hope, they're all things that you're dreaming about now for some reason, no matter how hard you may try to pull away from them.

To make matters more complicated, there are others intruding on your dreams who definitely don't belong there, and while they may seem like manifestations at first, it becomes clear that these others are actually the consciousness of other members of Hadriel, getting some top quality exposure to your angriest, happiest, most sorrowful moments. Hope it doesn't get awkward when you see them tomorrow...

► This log covers October 14th-20th.
► Feel free to make your own logs as well
► Please tag headers of threads with content warnings where they apply
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!
► If you die in dreams you don't die in real life, but if you somehow die in real life anyway, please let us know here.

[Oh, fuck.

The strange monster, with its ever-shifting shape, reminds him vaguely of the Hunger, but also... This is different. This is something far from the Hunger's all-consuming power. This thing is intimidating, yeah, but it can be killed.

At least, Magnus assumes it can be.

But it hasn't noticed him yet. It's talking to two other figures, one of them a man he remembers meeting before. What was his name again? Matthew? Something like that.

When Matthew or whoever stands between it and its target, it becomes enraged, and, uh, Magnus doesn't know how good that guy can fight, but he doesn't appear armed from Magnus' quick survey of the scene, so he's already at a disadvantage.

Without thinking, Magnus rushes in to get between the monster and the other two people, holding out Railsplitter towards the creature. It's not hurting either of them on his watch.]

Hey, yeah, what he said. Back off.

[Matthew or whoever isn't much of a fighter, no, but he has the slight advantage of being the one in technical control of this thing. At least, he usually is. That's how it's supposed to work. The system's a little faulty in dreamland.

When Magnus charges up and stands between them, Michael's at first just... really confused. Who is this? How did he get here? He looks kind of familiar- is that an axe? He's still processing, but the Visitor is very ready. It rises up to full height on two legs and screeches, but it doesn't actually attack yet.

Michael, finally putting the situation together, tries to push back in front of Magnus.]

Hey, watch it. I don't know how well I can control it in here.
