Dreams Spirit
The Weaver, Spider Woman
The Dreams Spirit is not so much of a High Spirit as they are a guardian of dreams, the keeper of the pathway between the spirit and physical worlds. Each night they weave their net and connect physical and spiritual minds, awaken hearts when bodies slumbers, and allow the passage of dreams between humans, creatures, and spirits--for a price. The Dreams Spirit extracts a toll to those who use their dream web.
It's a rare event to actually see the Dreams Spirit themself, especially outside their spider form, but a few, such as the leader of the grassland spirit binders, can testify to what they look like. They exist solely in the dream world, a place between worlds, and can change their form however they see fit, from adding limbs to altering their hair style, as no natural laws have hold on them. But one feature that stays the same is their glowing orange eyes. Sometimes eight, sometimes one, but always burning dark amber.
There's a lot of misconceptions about them, that they're crazy and the sight of them will drive you mad too, that they enjoy torturing the minds of humans with impossibilities and tragedies, that spider bites on the neck or face mean you've met them and will go insane soon, but really they just weave the dream web and connect sleeping minds to others. A guardian and keeper of dreams.

Body Features
A common feature they take is dark skin with splotched patterns that glow dark shades of blue and purple.

Dreamers who see the Dreams Spirit themself say that they always seem to be crouching, or clinging to an imaginary wall, or looming over the dreamer. Rarely standing or sitting like a normal person.
Special abilities
They manage the dream realm, weaving connections between dreamers to share and send dreams to another.

Accomplishments & Achievements
They've succeeded at keeping the Sun Spirit out of the dream realm for many cycles now, something they are very proud of.
Mental Trauma
It's common knowledge that the Dreams Spirit is insane.
Morality & Philosophy
A deal/contract is stronger than Law, honesty and fairness is critical.
Taboos
They would never lie or cheat
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Their primary goal is just managing the dream realm, do their job. Most of the time, that's all their broken mind can handle--the comforting ritual of weaving dreams. However, sometimes, when they can, they think about how things were before the Great Spirit split, and longs for that time to return.
Savvies & Ineptitudes
Incredibly skilled at shapeshifting and weaving, incredibly bad at remembering things, organization, timeliness, or planning for the future. Very forgetful and easily distracted.
Likes & Dislikes
Likes conducting deals between dreamers, weaving dreams, word games/riddles, and pranking/scaring people. Dislikes sitting still and free time, and hates not doing anything with their hands and loud noises/bright lights.
Virtues & Personality perks
They have a very firm resolve, a surprising adherence to integrity, and will never back out of a deal or lie/cheat. They have no prejudices against anyone; they make deals regardless of gender, skin color, wealth, position in society, sexuality, criminal activities, etc.
Vices & Personality flaws
They're forgetful and easily distracted, which can be annoying, and can be very flippant/irreverent. They can care a lot more about pranks and word games than actually conducting a deal, so the night passes and a dreamer loses their chance at sending an important message via dream.
Personality Quirks
They have a high-pitched, jittery laugh, like squeaky leather, that explodes out of them sporadically in extreme volumes.
Hygiene
Hygiene's not necessary when you lack a physical body.
Social
Contacts & Relations
They're very closer friends with the Badlands Spirit and have good relations with the Storm Spirit, Moon Spirit, and, surprisingly, the Star Spirit. Humans are harder to remember, but they have a few frequent dreamers that they usually recognize.
Very bad relations with the Sun Spirit.
Social Aptitude
They're an extrovert, but are bad at "normal" social interactions. They just have a different view of how interactions work.
Hobbies & Pets
They love all bugs and creepy-crawly creatures, and have a special fondness for spiders. It's said if you find a spider in your tipi you'll have a special dream that night.
Relationships
History
It's said that the Sun Spirit once tried to break a deal off or get out of it, and ever since then the Dreams Spirit has refused him usage of their dream web. Over the cycles he's done a lot to try and win back their trust, but the Dreams Spirit firmly believes that once a liar, always a liar, and to this day will not trust him.
History
They long ago agreed to allow another complete unrestricted access to each other's minds during dreams. They both love the wild things that run wild in nighttime imagination. The Badlands Spirit enjoys the escapement from reality, the Dream Spirit adores the twisted paths of the Badlands Spirit's mind.
Commonalities & Shared Interests
