Homebrew Dream Seeker Species Details

They are not born through conventional reproduction. Instead, they emerge from the collective imagination, emotional intensity, and subconscious desires of sentient beings.
Dream Seekers feed on the emotions of those around them. Fear, happiness, grief, hatred, affection, and desperation are all sources of sustenance.
Their existence is deeply ambiguous. Depending on their nature, a Dream Seeker may be regarded as a divine guardian, a benevolent spirit, a prophetic omen, or a horrifying manifestation of someone's past.
They are particularly suited to Paladins and Barbarians because they can embody collective emotions as physical power.
Some Dream Seekers can assume human forms. However, those with malicious intentions may deliberately resemble someone from a person's past, weaponizing familiarity and trauma.
