Elements of my Dream World
Recently came to realize just how many pronouns exist in my dreams and decided to go through my DJ and collect some. Does anyone else have such specific names and places? I'd love to hear them!
Places
Anduvia
A castle in an autumnal forest, part of the dissolved estate of an old family. For sale by the only female descendant. The town near the castle was burned to the ground. (By me)
The City
All roads lead to The City. A central hub of the dream world, every Dreamer and Dream Character ever to exist has passed through (and will likely pass through again) this heaven-like white province.
The Horns of Skor
A naturally occurring phenomenon at in a beach-side cliff. A gigantic living coral within the rock grew protrusions whose shape magnified sound several thousand-fold. The entire cliff side has become an audio-conductor that can be heard for miles around.
The South
Ogre-land, a dark and brutal section of the Dream World.
Characters
Armageddon
A woman (possibly not human) and second in command of Emisery. She runs his dream world from the inside, making sure there is no resistance to the forced dream state. She has an affinity for red and maroon colors.
Autumn
Female gladiator, she is short, pale, blonde, and very skilled with a scimitar.
The Black God
A god slayed by The Hine (sword of legend). His body is an empty untouchable void lacking visual detail. Over his face are three stripes of paint (One vertical down the center of the face, the other two horizontal over his eyes and his mouth) and are the only part of him that a mortal could touch, the rest being incorporeal.

A kindly gentleman in a cowboy hat, he doesn't speak, but points dreamers in the direction they need to go.

A homeless man peddling buttons in a city who became possessed by a powerful Demon. Button managed to free himself from the possession, overcoming great agony, but not before the Demon became powerful enough to murder him in non-corporeal form.
The Boy
A re-occurring Dream Character from as far back as I can recall. Friendly and protective he often derailed nightmares. He has aged consistently with myself over the years.
Elle
A time Traveling woman, she saved hundreds of lives by altering events at a major mining facility disaster.
Emisary
Powerful and evil dream inducing being, pale, tall, and with a pretty good sense of fashion. He is able to inflict mass-unconsciousness into a shared dream state so he can suck the life energy out of dreamers at his leisure. Armageddon is his second in command.
