Inner Self's Name: Zoen Leed (Zo-een Leed)
Type of Dreamer: Lucid Dreamer
Age: Early twenties
Gender: Male
Appearance: A tall, elegant male with slightly shimmering blonde hair. His bangs cover up his eyes completely, yet if they were to be shifted to the side he would be revealed to possess strange eyes with the brown irises laced with a dense ornament formed by strings of gold extending from his pupil, shifting like a kaleidoscope. His clothing is comfortable, minimalistic and lacks extensive decoration, consisting of a black long-sleeved shirt and a sash of almost weightless-looking golden silk tied around his waist. Barring the extraordinary material his clothing consists of which can only be properly examined up close, his smile generally attracts more attention than his attire.
Theme Song: The Message
Current Relations: Had encountered Nohizar & Razihon, otherwise lacks any remarkable relations with those upon the dreamscape.
Personality: An inquisitive man frequently in a state of contemplation, he is openly fascinated by those around him and seems to observe them just about constantly. As strange and suspicious this man might appear (what with the unnerving feeling of being watched by a man whose eyes are constantly hidden by bangs), he is generally friendly, soft-spoken and willing to offer help. Every now and then he proves to be quite insightful concerning their surroundings.
Abilities: Zoen’s pulse manifests as a set of strings that form in the air at any spot of his choosing, though the closer to him the less he has to exert himself and concentrate for accuracy. Typically he would trace the air with his fingertips, the strings lighting up along the vector of his movement, their ends unseen on the bottom or the top as though tethered by some invisible roots. Alternatively he may conjure an indefinite number of them in his vicinity. Quite strong and capable of restraining and even lacerating an opponent, their more fascinating function is to radiate sound in response to Zoen’s touch. Those sounds aren’t limited to what a stringed instrument would typically produce and quite literally seem to sing when their owner touches them. While most of the sounds produced have a soothing or mesmerizing effect, breaking a string is capable of shocking a target with an ear-piercing shriek. Zoen himself seems far less affected with the adverse effects of the latter ability. Since his Soul Sphere largely seems to revolve around “Conjuration and use of strings”, it’s not known what other pulses are embedded or implied by this ability, especially after Zoen’s prolonged absence in the dreamworld.
He was nearing a breakthrough as the desired sound frequency seemed within reach. However the endless inspiration and the happiness of his family were not meant to last apparently. The girl once fell asleep never to wake up again, joining the long lists of “victims” among children. Richard was devastated by his loss, his wife blaming his experiments and “dream-banter” on what happened to the little Tatiana Connover, abandoning him while calling him a murderer. While sorrowful and unstable at first, Richard chose to suppress his guilt and began trying to read the pattern. Deaths similar to that of his daughter were increasing in number and while the police certainly couldn’t do anything and the doctors were baffled with the causes, something wasn’t right. And the answer, he believed, could be found beyond the waking world.
Fixated on the slightest chance of finding out what happened to his daughter as well as the ability to unveil the cause of other dreamers dying, he made the final adjustments to his experimental frequency and sought to induce an artificial lucid dream in himself. Awakening in the form of a Persona changed by years of his absence from the world of dreams, he began studying his surroundings for clues…
