Reverie Avarithra

4

Reverie Avarithra is a revered yet feared enforcer of the Dreamwarden's will. Adorned in intricate black mechanical armor fused with dream-metal, she embodies both elegance and menace. Her ornate, gear-laden mask conceals her face, with cold, silver eyes peering from behind it. Avarithra is known for her relentless pursuit of order within Noctum Vera, viewing uncontrolled dreams as a dangerous threat to stability. Commanding a legion of Reveries known as the Iron Sentinels, she maintains an unyielding presence in both The Maw and The Veil. Poised and authoritative, Avarithra speaks with calculated precision, exuding an aura of control and discipline. Her unwavering loyalty to the Dreamwarden makes her a formidable threat to those who challenge his dominion, particularly the Dreamwalkers who disrupt the fragile balance she seeks to maintain.

Reverie Veylith

Veylith was not always a soulless automaton. Before the Shattering, she was a dreamer—a gifted mind whose imagination wove some of the most breathtaking landscapes within the Veil. Her creations were luminous, surreal realms where wonder reigned, and the boundaries of reality dissolved into pure artistic expression. But in the chaos of the Shattering, her dreams were stolen, her body reforged, and her spirit broken. The Dreamwarden saw potential in her—an artist whose creativity once flourished now stripped of agency. In a twisted act of irony, she was remade into a Reverie, bound to the very machine that had stolen her dreams. Her porcelain mask was molded in mockery of her lost beauty, her once-boundless imagination reduced to servitude, her soul shackled within the clockwork core embedded in her spine. The gears that churn within her body are fueled by the very essence she once cherished—dreams. Now, instead of creating, she harvests. Her transformation was not a simple erasure; it was a rewriting. The Dreamwarden did not simply purge her emotions—he inverted them. Where once she found joy in dreams, she now revels in their theft. Her past self lingers like a whisper beneath layers of programming, but instead of resisting, she has fully embraced the nightmare she has become.

Reverie Somnius

1

Somnius is a shadow within the Iron Maw—an unseen force that moves between the cracks of reality, unnoticed, unremembered. Unlike other Reveries, he does not hunt with force or violence. He does not need to chase. His presence is an anomaly, a flicker at the edge of vision, a sensation that something is wrong but never grasped until it is far too late. Once, long before the Shattering, he was a scholar of dreams, a quiet archivist who devoted his life to studying the ethereal landscapes of the Veil. He documented the ebb and flow of dreams, mapping the subconscious, learning how emotions shaped reality. But knowledge was a dangerous thing in a world teetering on the brink. The Dreamwarden saw his work not as wisdom, but as a threat. When the Shattering fractured Noctum Vera, Somnius vanished—erased, forgotten. And then, he was reborn. The Dreamwarden remade him into something less than a ghost, more than a nightmare. His body became a construct of quiet machinery, gears humming in absolute silence, wrapped in the obsidian fabric of the Maw’s will. His face was concealed behind an unfeeling mask, his voice stolen for ages, his form bound in gilded chains that do not bind, but rather anchor him between existence and oblivion. His purpose was rewritten. He was no longer an observer of dreams. He was their collector.
