~Personality~
Ash is a compassionate, truly caring creature, one that prefers doing as much good as she can with her abilities for every one of her hosts. She wishes harm on none but those that wish or harm on her loved ones, in which case she could almost literally become a killer nightmare. If she has no reason to dislike you she will love you until proven otherwise, while her true trust is difficult to gain it's nearly impossible to regain if it's lost, but you can always trust her on her word. Ash will listen with an ever-listening ear and open arms, or she'll be the one pushing you out of your comfort zone and inspiring/encouraging you with her soft whispers. Mental and emotional injuries are all she knows how to heal, so she puts her knowledge to good use when she can. And like anyone else she has her flaws, her top one probably being lazy and another being a bit overprotective, but she won't admit that stubborness is really her main problem alongside a rebellious streak and a problem with most authority. No one would expect this angel-faced Dreamwalker to be like this, but gettin gto know her reveals a less timid side of her.And despite her big-hearted self she can get... let's just say unpleasant if given what she deems good reason. Everyone needs their sleep and if you get on her bad side and she finds you asleep, which is bound to happen... just be sure your affairs are in order in case she decides you deserve an eternal sleep (whether it be death or coma).

~Likes~
~Dislikes~
~Skills/Weapons~
- Sweets: Share some with her and you've just jumped ahead from aquaintance to near-friend.
- Just food in general: She's got a big appetite for her size and she's not picky, even if she gets her real energy from dreams.
- Swimming: Something about it just relaxes her and at times the feeling of floating is similar to when she's in a dream.
- Night time: Not only is it the time she feeds, but it's also when the air cools and the stars and moon come out.
- Being in other's dreams: She hasn't had dreams of her own so entering other's dreams is the closest she can get.
- Collecting: Shells, flowers, sand, sparkly things, anything that catches her eye. The ones she holds dearest are more sentimental.
- Winter and Spring: Two completely different seasons, but she adores both.
~Dislikes~
- Complete darkness: It terrifies her, as she can't see anything that might be there if there isn't the tiniest bit of light.
- Complete silence: She fears it more than she fears hunters as it usually means something unpleasant is there.
- Hunters: Not so much the people themselves as much she dislikes their ignorance of the truth behind the "monsters" they hunt.
- Summer and Autumn: One's too hot and everything's dying in the other;
- Alcohol: It makes her sick and often causes her hosts that have ingested it to have... dreams she finds uncomfortable.
- Mythology: Sure, she thinks it's fascinating how much humans discovered, but often times more than 60% of its falsified to simply spice it up.
- Spicy food: Give her something extremely sour or super sugary, she'll eat lots. But give her a corn chip with mild salsa and she'll be guzzling glacier water.
~Skills/Weapons~
- Ashling would much rather have no need to carry weapons, but knowing the world she lives in and preffering blades over other weapons, she has a switch blade and two trench knives, while she keeps more variety in her little home she's managed to set up.
~Family~
~History~
Ash had never had much in the way of parents, having lost them at age eight to a team of hunters that had been tracking them. The only way they'd been found out was because a man leading a gang with the goal of capturing and torturing hunters wanted them so much that he threatened to harm the family if they didn't help. Ash's parents wanted nothing to do with it and decided to flee, but in order to get away without too much trouble they knew they'd have to do something about the gang leader. Her mother used the abilities of her dreamwalker to kill the gang leader from within his dream realm, manipulating his dreams so he was crushed by a train and beheaded by one of the wheels. After it was over and done with, the family fled. The corpse was found the next day, and it wasn't known that he was dead until someone tried to wake him by shaking him and felt the crushed bones shifting under his flesh. An autopsy found that the muscles and bones of his neck were completely severed though the outer flesh was left untorn, it was the kill of a particularly irked Dreamwalker. Unknowing that the corpse had actually been a werewolf, a team of Hunters was sent out to kill the Dreamwalker that had killed the thought-to-be "human" being.
When they found Ash's mother, Bella, they also found Ash and her father, Raphael. The hunters had a field day with the hunt, but finished with disappointed as they lost the daughter of the Dreamwalker and Incubus. Ash was left with the last loving words of her parents, hiding in a small warehouse for several days and eating the food stored there until strangers came in and accidentally scared her into a corner. They turned out to be friends of her father, a pair of elves that took her in until she was sixteen, when she took off on her own again due to being unable to be cooped up any longer. After a few years on her own she found her place amongst a nice little group of friends she never thought she'd have, one she never knew she'd assist with capturing a team of Hunters... until it happened. Now, she just hopes it can end peacefully and without blood-shed.
~Species Abilities~
Ash doesn't only enter and observe dreams as her species name hints at, though she can do that and does so to feed. She feeds off the dreams of humans (or, sometimes, other "Monsters") to gain her real life energy, though she can eat normal food and rather enjoys it. Finding a host is easy enough, watching and observing to see who tends to have what kind of dreams. She tends to feed off of nightmares more often (though happier dreams are more full-filling) because it gets rid of her host's more negative emotions and gives them a better life while she still gets enough meals due to nightmares being pretty common. But she doesn't only go into and devour dreams, there are different things she can do within the dreamworld, but certain things have to happen if any of this can occur. First, in the physical world she has to find a host and lock her gaze with theirs, forcing a subconscious mental connection that will allow her passage later when the host sleeps. If she needs them to sleep earlier then they appear to be, she whispers to them through the wind or from right behind them (camoflauges herself to their sight through their bond if it's at least somewhat open), her voice lulls the host to sleep. Next, she assures she can enter in comfort as when she goes in, her physical body wil go limp and she needs to have some sort of physical touch wtih the host. When this is done she enters the host's dreamland and when she first enters she appears as herself: a slim, pale woman with clothes fitting the current surroundings of the dreamland and a cloth blindfold around her eyes. She can do nothing but observe and absorb the drams of her pick as long as the blindfold stays on, which is usually removed if when host dreamer wishes it to be, but she can take it off if she wishes.
Ash's true form is revealed if the blindfold is removed and she gains the ability to manipulate the dream realm. Usually, there's nothing to fear with this except for the fact that it makes it several times more vivid and she gains the ability to cause the host's death and vice versa in this position without leaving a mark on the physical bodies. Her true form doesn't have too many differences besides her feather-tipped ears, flawless skin, a dusting of sparkles across where ever one would expect freckes, and a rosy hue to her silver eyes. If she meets the host's eyes in the dream realm, the host will be able to see her true form in the physical world afterwards, which is why she prefers averting her gaze or not even removing her blindfold when feeding.
When in the dream world Ash's physical body is left unguarded and open to attack. But when awake and well-fed she shows the physical attributes of enhanced balance, speed, agility, stealth, and stamina, though her strength is the same level as any human's. She's too small for any brute force, but she's fast and quiet, mainly the only way she can get to a host to feed.
