Name
Gethin the Nightmare
Age
18
Gender
Male
Species
Nightmare Leader
Weapon
A magically enhanced bow which makes arrows fly farther than humanly possible. He wields this with much trust for it hasn’t failed yet.
Abilities
Defense Sacrifice - Makes him extremely venerable to attacks to raise his physical strength.
Nightmare Overtake - Deals extreme damage to Dreams, but make humans stronger. 20% chance of this working.
Appearance
Gethin has a very distraught appearance. Gethin’s hair is on the messy side because, well, being a nightmare he doesn’t care for his appearance much. In fact, he cares more about destroying Dreams. The first thing you’d probably see would be his messy hair, which looks rather uncombed. His extremely dark bangs reach down to his cold grey eyes in some places as well. Gethin never thinks of cutting his bangs. Actually the only place that is even slightly trimmed is the back of his hair where his hair almost goes beyond the back of his coat’s collar.
Gethin has a very pale face, which compliments his gray eyes and black hair. Just below his chin starts a grey jacket that has a hood that perfectly hides his face for secrecy. This is because he rarely shows his face, knowing that dreams couldn’t tell the difference between humans and nightmares if they can’t see the nightmare’s face. His jacket reaches as low as his knees and then cut’s off and leave’s an opening where you can see a little bit of a light black under shirt.
Gethin doesn’t worry about his pants all that much because he knows the only thing that matters about them is that they are flexible for battle. His jeans are a very dark blue with darker cuffs at the bottom, which cover the very top of his plain old black shoes, made for tough battling.
Personality
Gethin, as you can probably guess, doesn’t like others. Sometimes he can get into nasty fights with those of his own kind (this is probably because he is the leader). Gethin doesn’t waste time deciding who to mark as friend or foe and rarely makes friends. Like most nightmares he despises dreams but he won’t attack first thing because he never underestimates a foe.
History
1,000 years ago a man called “The Nightmare” had died fighting his enemy: a man called “The Dream”. This caused all of their soldier’s spirits to leave them and enter the only remaining humans on the small parts of Nikodem that still existed.
You could say a thousand years have changed Nightmares and Dreams a lot, including the fact that no nightmare or dream can remember what happened on that legendary day except their leaders. This took its toll on Gethin, because every time he gets an unwanted flash from that legendary battle he feels he must do more for Nightmares and destroy anything that stands in their way.
The first time Gethin was created he was a very inexperienced nightmare and of course he started out an adult for that’s the way the humans thought of him. Gethin spent many years traveling, yet never aging. He had to find his way in this world; he knew it wasn’t far. Gethin became tired of this. Never getting anywhere, never figuring anything out. This was until he came face to face with a dream that knew something about him that Gethin himself didn’t. This dream wielded much power, but seemed afraid of Gethin and fled from him until Gethin finally cornered him. Gethin was very curious but also felt obliged to kill this dream. The dream had said one thing that changed Gethin forever. He told Gethin that he was the Nightmare Leader for he was the only one other than the dream leader that possessed the power to see images of that battle a thousand years ago. Gethin, of course, did not fully understand what good was it being haunted by these ghostly images. Over the next years Gethin would soon learn that he was the only one that could control nightmares even a little and he would learn to use that power to the best of his abilities.
