Somnei Bonding

Why do I want one?
These are absolutely amazing ;A; Creative, brilliant. I think it's be fun to draw and write stories about a Somnei, and this one has a subtle but stunning design.

What will I use it for?
Art, stories. Maybe, when I have a nightmare, I'll imagine the somnei bringing me joy. <3

Describe your Somnei
Outgoing, almost tame, this somnei loves to hang around after the dreamer has woken. It likes to rest and enjoy company of others, and enjoys frolicking in the dreams it enters.
Vieta Cor means "Mellow Heart". It almost perfectly describes the lighthearted and brave somnei who bears that name.


Image

Write a short story for your Somnei:
A brittle wind swept into a small house as the door was swung open. A young woman stepped in, clutching her jacket and shivering. It was snowing-the middle of a blizzard. She slammed the door shut, and flicked on the lights. The house was illuminated, and it showed only that the quaint house was unoccupied except for by her. She grabbed a fuzzy blanket, took her boots off, and snuggled up on her couch.

It didn't take her long to drift off. Though she was asleep, everything was still cold and haunting. She cried out, but only silence came out of her mouth. All of the sudden, a warm breeze swept by, ruffling her hair, causing her to shut her eyes...she opened them to a warm and grassy valley. Dew was fresh on the vegetation, and she plucked a flower to examine its scent. It was sweet and welcoming, and she looked up to survey her surroundings once again.

the flower was gently slipped out of hand. A small creature (the size of a ferret, perhaps) gingerly tucked the flower behind her ear. She gasped when she felt it, and as the little animal leaped onto the ground, its eyes were as kind and welcoming as the scent of the flower. They were aglow, along with a crest upon its head.
"Hello," it seemed to whisper. Its mouth did not move, it voice simply was projected into her mind.
"Why, hello to you as well," she replied, stunned, "What are you, exactly?"
"I am a somnei. We bring happiness to the dreams of those we choose."
"Well, you are very welcome here," she looked around, "I haven't had a dream this....warm.... since I was a child."
"I must go now. It is time for you to wake. I will return...I promise."

The somnei did return. It stayed by her side in her dreams, and it was always there when she woke, swishing its tail as if to say, 'Good morning, and goodbye until you dream once more'.

Desired Somnei:
Lucky #7

Description:
An older Somnei that takes pride in its speed, visiting many dreams in the course of a single night. Having an affinity for the weather, it causes weather effects in dreams and likes to play around with the dreamer. While causing no harm, it has a tendency to cause stress in dreams, only to make it all better in the end and enjoy its work.


Name:
Dreamscape, although in most cases, I'd like to call him simply Scape

Username:
~Bast~

Why do I want one?:
To be honest, I've really missed Tracker Dogs. I still use Soter in my personal writings and stories, and I think it's a bit sad that something that made so many people energized and happy tapered off. So I'm really happy I found your new creations =) I'm sure that they will have the same energy and spirit as well. I really like the Somnei you have created. Dreams are fasinating, and spirits that alter your dreams, especially in a happy way are extremely interesting and quirky. In particular, I'm attracted to this Somnei because of his coloration and profile; I am fairly fast as well (although of course I mean running) and I like the way he looks. It makes me wonder about the type of dream he emerged from.

What will I use him for?:
I use all of my characters for inspiration and they just make be happy in general. They give me something to draw when I have spare time and no muse, and it is a joy thinking of new poses for them (I already have a few for this boy). Each different species is special and brings different interests and characteristics to mind when writing/drawing that all enrich whatever it is that I'm doing. I would use Scape for poems and drawings most likely- I think doing a series of poems based on his dream encounters would be fasinating and really fun <3

Describe Your Somnei:
Scape is a compassionate Somnei that loves "fixing" dreams. He has a fondness for children and young adults, and especially likes fixing their small worries; even the smallest worries make a big impact on their worlds, and he likes to help them. He also loves the bright colors their dreams come in, and their upbeat, hopeful innocence. He is very speedy, and it isn't often that he spends much time in any one dream. But there is this one girl he keeps coming back to...

Write a Short Story for your Somnei:
Dreamscape had already visited five dreams this night, and was quickly bounding towards a sixth. Scape had a talents for quick visits; he could lighten any dream in moments, and then be on his way. He had seen it all, every landscape, person, animal, or mixture of the three. A teenage girl dreaming fitfully of her family issues caught Scape's attention. He entered the worried dream easily, but found himself caught off guard by the normalcy of the dreamscape. It closely mirrored the real world, the wallpaper of the room precise in every detail, the titles on the book-spines clearly visible, and every word of the screaming argument downstairs ringing with dislike. And on the bed lay the girl, a pillow over her head, although Scape knew that she could hear all the conjured words. Scape muted the screams and prepared to leave, but then he saw the stacks upon stacks of textbooks and homework *pop* into existence above her desk. He quickly changed them into finished projects. But once more before he could leave, the girl's internal stress acted first. The walls of her room melted into the walls of metal doors- lockers in the school hallway. Her coach stood before her, telling her that she didn't make the team this season. Scape changed the scene to the coach congratulating her on her outstanding improvement. Then the dream faded away and the girl sank into deep sleep. And despite himself, Scape felt attached. He dropped onto the girl's pillow, and curled up in the girl's silky hair... and fell asleep.

Somnei Bonding

Username:
Batman. (As I am sure you are aware XD)

Desired Somnei:
Surprisingly, number 6.

Somnei name:
Cahaya
Nickname: Caya

Reason for wanting one:
I miss Tracker Dogs so much, and was unfortuneate enough not to receive one. I wish that LCD would bring them back up and running again, but It seems that will not happen. Thank you so much Draca for creating such an amazing species to 'taunt' us with again. I will enjoy seeing this thread grow and develop just as the Trackers did as well.

What will it be used for?
Caya is a very beautiful creature, and I feel like drawing her would be tons of fun. (But unfortunately, my tablet is broken. Just traditional for me XD)

She has an amazing back story and reminds me of myself as a child. How I would have horrible nightmares, but then they would turn glad, as if, by magic itself.

Describe your Somnei:
Being a very light creature, Caya is very soft when it comes to dreams and dream states. She touches people's minds tenderly, and listens to their innermost thoughts and creates a dream that they would most enjoy. Caya is sad when people reject her dreams and in turn reject the lightness of her dreams. She dislikes those who crave the nightmares and the evil that comes with it. She also would like to see all evil Somnei dead.

Write a short story for your Somnei:
Dreams. The endless reality of the unreality. Who controls such things, consciously. Who listens and awaits those who seek the better of dreams. The naive would say no one, I say, there is only one who is pure enough to do such drastic things.

The Somnei.


I was only a girl when I had a dream, but strangely, I remember it well. It was horrible, dark, evil even, but then suddenly, I saw a bright light. It was what looked like a seed. It was quite large, and emminated pink and made the evil receed. The brightness was not overpowering, more like a soft pulse of energy. Soon, the seed began to grow, change shape, and became a creature. It was a soft pink with blue spines and crests. It seemed shy at first but it noticed my fearfulness and seemed to whisper,
Fear not, child. The evil of the nightmare is gone, I will protect you.
Not long after the birth of this mericle, I was laughing, playing with my new-found friend. It would stay with me for a long time. But, I knew that it was over when it looked in the direction of the rising sun. I began to cry but it said to me in a soft tone,
Do not despair, friend. I will only return when you sleep again. You are my friend, and I am yours. Do not forget this dream, for it is the dream of my birth, and it is the birth of our friendship.

Never have I forgotten, never have I forgotten.

NOTE::
If I ever say 'she', its just that I would have this creature be a female. Sorry! I

Somnei Bonding
Username:Celestial Skies
Desired Somnei:Somnei #7
Somnei name:Maelstrom
Reason for wanting one: I just look at these creatures and think ":D they must exist, because this kind of thing happens all the time to me in my dreams!" and they're simply beautifully flawless in every way.

What will it be used for?:I will watch him for hours and wonder how he is so perfectXD just kidding, (maybe...) I will base a story off of him, use him as one of my characters in my already existing story.
Describe your Somnei:Maelstrom is a quiet, stoic Somnei, who is very proud, but never arrogant, and uses his speed to visit many dreamers every night. He likes to create puzzles in the dreams of whoever's dream he is influencing, such as long, twisting corridors leading out into a beautiful meadow or to whatever they most desire.

Write a short story for your Somnei: WIP!
C’mon, c’mon, with everything falling down around me
I’d like to believe in all the possibilities
Try not to mistake what you have with what you hate
It could leave, it could leave, come the morning
Celebrate the night
It’s the fall before the climb
Shall we sing, shall we sing, 'til the morning

Um yea. So I alternate between Celestial Skies, Seabreak, and Thief of Breath...so no touchies kthnxbai

I think that once the dream shop arrives and all that, that I might hire some artists. Or atleast open up guest artist positions occassionally. Once I find a good system for guest artists.
