The Howling Dream

The Crying Chaos, The Primal Storm

Summary

The Howling Dream is as much a place or state of mind as it is an entity. It is mad, primal chaos dwelling within the darkest depths of consciousness, the stormy sea of emotions and awareness from which all thought and imagination first arose. It is that portion of the Great Mind that will not be tamed or subject to order. It is insanity incarnate. Magicians calling on the power of the Howling Dream skirt the edges of madness themselves.

• The Crying Road is a path into the realm of dreams and nightmares.
• Curse of Howling Madness drags the victim’s psyche down into the depths of the Howling Dream, causing erratic, often insane, behavior.
• Dream Dementia calls forth powerful dream images into the waking mind, causing the subject to feel powerful emotions accompanied by hallucinations: so, a victim might see her greatest fear, perceive the magician as her one true love, and so forth.
• Dream Denizens conjures up creatures out of nightmare, no two exactly alike.
