Daydream & Nightmare (Personal Art)

Shapeshifter gods • Immortal • They/Them

Dream and Nightmare are two gods sharing one body - after Nightmare lost their original body Dream offered to share it with them [if they haven't done that, Nightmare wouldn't be able to do their job properly which would result in a spike of nightmares and monster-related incidents in the human world]. They have been best friends for hundreds of years and do most things together. Still, Dream doesn't regret their decision.

Dream is a god so they have access to multiple abilities including shapeshifting, but they exclusively appear as a dragon-like creature. They sprout two small horns out of their head, have large ears with one ribbon-like growth on each ear, and have long hair. Their sclera is dark, while their eyes are multicolored with no pupils. Most of their body is covered in vibrant-colored fur with small, white spots all over, and their underbelly is scaled. Dream sprouts a pair of feathered wings out of their back which can shrink at will and just like their ears, they have ribbon-like extensions growing out of them. A fluffy, dark-colored mane grows from the start of their neck all the way to the end of their tail, which is tipped with a fluffy tail tip. Their limbs end with claws, and their back legs have three defensive 'plates' each.

Since Nightmare lost their original body, their presence when inhibiting Dream's body manifests in dark, space-looking patches of fur all over their body [they have no real use and are purely aesthetic]. When at least one of Dream's eyes is surrounded by the dark markings, the iris turns white and glows brightly. Nightmare can leave Dream's body for longer periods of time, resulting in the dark patches fading away and Nightmare appearing as a dark, smoke-like spirit. In this form Nightmare can shapeshift to a degree - sprouting wings or limbs, for example. Their eyes and mouth always glow with a white color.
