Description

Name: Warren Hartgrave
Known Aliases: Joshua Hendrix, Carson Beckett, Vince Drummer, Graham Anderson, Harry Lewis, Kyle Fisher, Thomas Young, Frank Wright, Brandon Francis
Public Name: The Dreammaster
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Hero/Villain Outfit: None- He uses his powers to alter how people see him, so no one can recognize him.
Villain or Hero: Whichever is more fun at the moment. (Neutral)
Power 1: His main power is to generate a dream world around his target. He has full control over this world, and while 'instant' deaths will not cause any lasting effects on the real world, slow deaths can cause minor brain damage and, occasionally, put a character in a coma. When someone is killed instantly, they will wake up from the dream with minor disorientation. He can only maintain one dream at a time, and the more people he places in the dream, the more he has to concentrate. He cannot function in everyday life if he is maintaining a dream of over two people, as the effort it takes the maintain the dream makes it so he cannot devote any attention to the real world. If he tries to place too many people in a dream, his brain won't even be able to concentrate on making him breathe and he will pass out and the dream will end.
Power 2: Memory theft- as a variation on the dream power, he can use the memories of a person to construct a dream that includes information Warren would not already know. If he wishes to keep any of this information once the dream ends, however, he must enter the dream himself and learn or read about it.
Power 3: Warren can alter the way people perceive objects in the real world, but he can only make minor changes. The shape, weight, and dimensions will stay the same, but things like lettering, colors, and similar pieces can be altered. He uses this to rearrange his facial features and hair color/style so that he cannot be recognized, and very few people have actually seen his born face. He usually changes his face day-to-day, and can be hard to recognize each morning to those who do not know him well.
Lair/home: A small apartment in the city.
Affiliates: His landlord, Jason Thorne, is under his thumb due to his sleepwalking disorder. Otherwise, he keeps to himself.

Personality

Warren keeps to himself. He will use his powers for personal gain, but rarely causes any harm or even does any 'major' events. He doesn't have a job, instead getting food by placing the cashiers at stores in minor dreams so they perceive him paying and give it to him for free. He usually spends his time at home in self-induced dreams which he plays like video games. Sometimes, when he is bored, he'll stay up at night and alter his neighbor's dreams. He rarely goes out of his apartment, but once the NCCPD asked for superhero help, he started paying attention to what was happening in the city and will often interfere in the heroes' and villains' plans. Sometimes, he'll toss other super-powered people into dreams together and pit them against one another. However, he does have a moral system and will never bring real harm to a person if he can hep it.

Equipment

When Warren is using his powers, he operates under the following limitations:

1 person: Can operate normally, no extreme activity. Absolute control of dream.
2 people: Can operate, but will seem distracted. Absolute control of dream.
3-6 people: Still aware of surroundings, but cannot move. Still capable of speech. Absolute control of dream.
6-10 people: Can hear surroundings, but cannot speak or see. Can't manipulate large inanimate objects (buildings, etc.)
10-13 people: Completely unaware of surroundings. Can't manipulate anything he couldn't carry in real life.
13+:Unable to maintain lungs, will pass out after the maximum amount of time he can hold his breath. (1.5 minutes) Dream will falter, and the dreamees will have minor control over the reality.

History

Warren ran away from home when he was 15, and has since used his dream abilities to freeload off of the people around him. He had trouble with people around him learning of his deceptions, and is known to a few police departments, but he has become adept at staying off the record. For a while, he had to move around every few weeks, until he found a landlord, Jason Thorne, who sleepwalks. Ever since then, he has been able to use his powers to make Thorne do anything he wants. Ever since then, he has been living in the same building, using Thorne to get food and general products.

He still does practice dreams when he can- he will often place 13 people in a dream as practice to try to expands the size of a dream he can create. This method is how honed his abilities from when he originally discovered his powers, when he could only place two people in a dream at a time, and even then only with cosiderable effort.

So begins...
