Your Interesting Dream Characters

Do you have any dream characters that stand out from the rest - i.e. physically different, funny, scary, or otherwise memorable? Let's hear about them.

One for me is a blonde lady who's appeared in plenty of my dreams. I think her name is Michelle, and she just may be my dream guide, but I don't know.

Another one for me is something that I've dubbed the Sentry. I made it out of a small black basketball, added propulsion fans, internal radar and an onboard computer. It also has a guiding laser (not usable as a weapon) that I thought about adding but never actually added. It's got an onbard AI and could be sentient. It flies around traveling most of the time, though I have a radio control that I can use to call it back or control it. My dad destroyed it in a dream by hitting it with a baseball bat, but in the dream realm anything can happen...

My mental world was also invaded by a race of space-snails that look like Gary from Spongebob Squarepants and like to cut things then shout "OHIO!"

When I was a teenager I had a series of dreams about a ninja girl who wanted to kill me and take my dream powers. Our fights were epic. She even saved my life a few times - so that she could be sure nobody else killed me.

More recently I remember the Empress of a slave-holding empire. I fascinated her because I was from Earth and I was a philosopher, but I was a polytheist like her people, not a monotheist like most people from here.

We talked a lot. And I liked her nation. It was a place where in general life was getting better. I am currently writing my dissertation on the topic of slavery. My original motivation for doing so was as a tribute to her and her world.

I have a few.
Ones, my guardian, that's what I call him. He looks about my age now, as always looked that way even when I saw him as a child. I only call in my guardian because he's been with me since I was a young child.

It's not so much what he looks like that makes him stand out to me, it's that I saw him very often and the feeling I get when I'm around him.
I've been told he's several things but many different people from different forums. On one forum, a dream forum created by an author of dream interpretation books (seems to be a very established author), I was told (my several people there) that it could be a past life memory. Others have told me he could be a soulmate.
And I've also gotten a few, "he might be your spirit guide".

Another would be Viking vampires. I have lots of vampire dreams (I don't even read about them) but the Viking ones were...interesting, to say the least.

I also often see animals in my dreams. The ones I see most frequently are horses and turtles.

I don;t really have many memorable dream characters, but there were two in this one dream (part of the Silent Hill World series of dreams that I mayhave mentioned in my dream journal). One of them was a female museum curator/librarian/thrift store owner (whatever the place was), and the odd thing about her was that she was so much more sentient than any of my other DCs, aside from the other who I had just met: A skinhead sage who I accused of being involved with pawning my stolen bike. He was perfectly calm the entire time, held me back from attacking him with one arm (skinny dude, but didn;t even break a sweat), and waited for me to exhaust myself tryign to fight him, which was mere seconds, and hadn;t happened before even in, say, ninja training dream, or running for my life dreams. He had earlier pointed me to the building with the other sentient DC, and now he said nothing but a cryptic message. "Chexck the wire. Everything ends up there... Eventually." No bike, but the wire (with creatures on that were part of a longer seies of events) led me to soem sort of evil, stronger than the minor wicked/mischevious characters I had occasionally met before. Woke up feeling like a heart attack, haven;t had one of those dreams since. THe thing that srtuck me was how other DCs always had a sort of two-dimensional quality whenever I thought about them later. There was the occasional character who seemed more real than the others, like the librarian/curator or the mischiefmakers, but they always seemed to be a facade worn by a character who in turn was projecting their own rality. This guy was the only one I;ve found so far who seemed completely real long after waking up (aside from whatever the hell was ptrojecting the evil, but I never actually met it).

Edit: Plus a nutcracker-style rat king in a tin soldier outfit, who had previously been disguised as a very realistic camel. I've only once had a nightmare about him since moving from my old house when I was five, and it;s hard to think of it as a dream character more than an integral feature of the recurring dream/nightmare. He wasn;t very realistic, he was rather "blurred," but very memorable.
