Sometimes there's someone who can shape their dreams into whatever they want — or shape your dreams, for that matter. They can send you into a Nightmare Sequence. They can trap you in a Dream Within a Dream, or help you resolve something in a Vision Quest. They can even kill you in your dreams. They can be villains or heroes, but dreams are their domain. They are a Dream Weaver. Sometimes they can give prophetic dreams. Sometimes a means of communication. Those who bring their dreams into the physical world are either Masters of Illusion or Reality Warpers, depending on whether they actually change things or just make it look like so. Sometimes, they can even trap more than one person in the same dream. If they normally live in Dream Land, they may be Weaker in the Real World if they leave it. May only be able to affect sleeping subjects, unless they can also induce and maintain sleep in others. Compare Dream Walker, contrast Dream Stealer. Subtropes are Nightmare Weaver, for those who only bring ill tidings and ill will to you, and The Sandman, for the mythical character who sprinkles sand onto people's eyes to bring on sleep and dreams. Not to be confused with the web development application by Adobe Systems. noreallife |

The Equestrian Wind Mage: Luna maintains this ability from canon. Unfortunately, Dethl can also do this, and, aside from what he does with it, he can also apparently counter Luna's own usage, as well as her ability to foresee events in dreams. | |

Dragon Age: There are mages who can enter the Fade without lyrium or blood magic and exercise a certain degree of control over it aptly called Dreamers or in Tevene somniari. Their control over the Fade is strong into the point that they can cause nightmares and outright kill people in their dreams. However, the general risk of demonic possession that most mages face will be doubled for a Dreamer. Examples including Feynriel from Dragon Age II and Solas from Dragon Age: Inquisition. | |

The Silmarillion describes the Vala Irmo (also often called Lórien, after the gardens where he lives) is said to be the master of dreams and visions. The fact that he is the brother of Mandos (the Vala who is almost perfectly able to see the future) is probably the source of prophetic dreams in Arda. | |

Heroes featured Sanjog, a mysterious boy who could travel through Mohinder's dreams and gave him cryptic messages. Technically, the boy's power was that people in distress would astrally project themselves via their dreams to him and ask him for advice. What kind of a lame power is that?! Imagine if he was a therapist though. The ability to be on the scene and in a person's head when they're in distress? That power's not lame, it's just limited. That boy could easily grow up to be a one hell of a Manipulative Bastard by taking advantage of people with his power. Matt's father Maury (and, it is implied, Matt, if he learns to harness it) can induce waking dreams, hallucinations, whatever you want to call them, and Molly accordingly dubs him The Nightmare Man. Matt HAS harnasssed this power by Volume 4. He creates a hallucination of he and Daphne being killed to fool a random Mook, as well as trap Sylar in a dream and force him to believe he is Nathan Petrelli. |

Doctor Destiny appeared in the Justice League episode "Only A Dream". He's just as powerful as his comic counterpart, affecting anyone he wants wherever in the world they might be if they're asleep (and he can get you even if you're awake if he's close enough). The first (and last) things he does when he gets his power are trap his ex-wife and the Justice League in their worst possible nightmares, which kill them through shock if they go on long enough. | |

In Planescape, the Wall of Color between the Deep Ethereal and Border Ethereal is also known (less widely) as the Veil of Sleep: those who instead of passing through the Veil find a way to enter into it visit the dreamscapes of whatever plane it envelops. Not that a lot of people care to bodily wander in strangers' dreams. That's where effects like Dream Travel or Nightmare work. It lies between the Prime or other specific plane and the protomatter-laden mist of Ethereal plane, that is "what may become". The kicker is that it works both ways — sometimes dreamscapes rupture, spilling the contents on the Ethereal side where anything the dreamer imagined works like magical illusions. Including a chance to become real, no matter how crazy its properties are. | |

Actually, Hokuto's twin brother Subaru already showed this skill in Tokyo Babylon. While his speciality was traveling to the subconscious of a catatonic person like he did to "wake up" Kamui after Fuuma's Face–Heel Turn and Kotori's horrifying murder, in the original TB series he pulled a dream weaver stunt to aid Midori, a girl who had been traumatised due to being raped and later harassed, thus she fell into a deep sleep to protect herself. And she was his Forgotten Childhood Friend. | |

Widespread in Labyrinths of Echo. One sequel tells about "Masters of the Perfect Dreams" for a modest price making limited-use pillows with the specific dream wanted by the client. It was legal in Echo even during the strictest limitations on magic and there's a whole guild. The protagonist was visited by a few mages this way. Starting with acquaintance while still living in his (and presumably ours) world and then hiring by his chief. Who as a Professional Killer personally slain about a half of King's enemies during the civil war and later reminisced royal habit of giving such secret decrees, er, friendly requests in dream visits: | |

Dreamkiller sees you as a private investigator who can enter and exit dreams at will, with your job being curing clients of their phobia by entering their dreams and purging whatever nightmares they have. It ends with you confronting the Dream Devourer, a demon who resides only in nightmares who can control a person's life from within the dream world, so the finale is a massive dreamweaver vs. dreamweaver duel. | |

Due to the way the Spiritual Forces school of magic in the setting works, Oneirotropic filaments can only be generated while the caster is asleep themselves, which poses a bit of a problem, though in-universe documents imply that some shamans have had greater success with this than secular mages have. Some magecraft theorists have also suggested that it'd be possible to naturally generate Oneirotropic filaments in the Shadowlands, which may exist between the real world and the world of dreams, but as planeshifting there would necessarily require Oneirotropic filaments this theory runs into a bit of a Catch-22 Dilemma. At any rate, players and DMs are encouraged to explore the possibilities of this magical aspect. | |

Exalted: Dream flies, a type of minor god, are strictly speaking only charged with observing and recording mortal dreams. Most eventually grow tired of their passive roles, and use their experience with dreams to brew their own, which they keep in glass bottles and give to sleeping minds. Their dispositions and preferred dreams affect to whom they give their creations — dream flies associated with romantic or erotic dreams favor passionate lovers, ones tied to dreams of glory and action give visions of victory and battle to the passionate, and ones who weave nightmares spread their works at random or to anyone they find distasteful. | |

Lovecraft journey into the dream dimension, Lovecraft finds that Houdini is already a very experienced dreamer who doesn't need his advice on how to shape the dream. Anderson: Psi-Division: Anderson has learned how to employ lucid dreaming to shape her dreams to her own liking, even using it to kick Judge Death out of her mind for good. |

Spyro the Dragon (1998): One of the hub worlds is the homeland of the Dream Weaver branch of dragons. According to the manual (it's never directly addressed in the game), these dragons fly through dreams and help people with their nightmares. The world in question is bizarre enough to make one wonder if Spyro simply fell asleep towards the end of the game. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: The arcane spell Dream and its variant Nightmare — the first allows you to send a message the recipient will remember upon waking, second causes restless sleep and some damage. The psionic power Dream Travel, the epic spell Lord of Nightmares (no relation), and similar abilities. Ravenloft has the Nightmare Court, a group of unique beings who like to enter people's dreams and feast on their fears In Planescape, the Wall of Color between the Deep Ethereal and Border Ethereal is also known (less widely) as the Veil of Sleep: those who instead of passing through the Veil find a way to enter into it visit the dreamscapes of whatever plane it envelops. Not that a lot of people care to bodily wander in strangers' dreams. That's where effects like Dream Travel or Nightmare work. It lies between the Prime or other specific plane and the protomatter-laden mist of Ethereal plane, that is "what may become". The kicker is that it works both ways — sometimes dreamscapes rupture, spilling the contents on the Ethereal side where anything the dreamer imagined works like magical illusions. Including a chance to become real, no matter how crazy its properties are. The quori, nightmare spirits from the Eberron setting's Dream Land, can do this. Along with their broader repertoire of Psychic Powers, it's one of their most powerful tools for manipulating mortals. |

The main character from Yumegari, Tatsumi Hojyou. It's actually her family tradition, inherited from her dead parents: her work is to watch over the dreams of other people, and intervene if they're dangerous to the dreamers themselves. Once her mom and dad kick it, Tatsumi sets out to seek for her "destined person" and partner, a man named Kyousuke Kaga who also fits in this trope and lives in Tokyo... | |

The Big Bad Checker Monarch also knows how due to being Trixie's older sister and thanks to her dream infiltration spell can get into and mess with the dreams of others, which she uses for Mind Rape. If two ponies who both know it are in the same dream, the one who's currently is in the best mental state will have the most control. The entire Final Battle is set in the dream world and involves both sides using this trope against the other. | |

A major arc of the 1966-1971 Gothic soap opera Dark Shadows was The Dream Curse. The witch Angelique, in an effort to return the curse of vampirism to her recently cured lover-turned-nemesis Barnabas Collins, cast a spell which caused various people in Collinsport to have a nightmare. The first person to have the dream would be compelled to tell the next person in the chain about said nightmare. The person told would then have the same dream with an added twist, so on and so on, until the curse reached Barnabas and caused him to once more become a vampire. | |

Diabolos, Terrestrial Avatar and Ruler of Dreams in Final Fantasy XI, who created an entire dreamland to escape The End of the World as We Know It. It's name? Dynamis. Didn't exactly turn out well. Did not turn out well indeed. The people trapped in this world eventually lost their sanity and will attack anyone who approaches them on sight. The only people who managed to stay sane were absorbed into their empathic weapons. On top of all of that, the drop rates are terrible even after being upped, meaning that even normal players can go insane if they do enough Dynamis. (Square apparently takes their tropes seriously.) |

A number of people in The Wheel of Time do this; in fact, there's an entire Dream Land known as Tel'aran'rhiod where dreamers interact with each other. Notably, although it's possible to dreamwalk into someone else's dreams, the dreamer has a great deal of control over the intruder, so any dream weaving has to be done with extreme caution. | |

Wicked Lovely: Rae can do this; she's referred to as a dreamwalker but it's essentially the same thing. She has been guiding Ani through dreams since childhood, almost destroys faerie by giving Sorcha a dream in which she can see her son, Seth, which causes her to make Rae ensure she never wakes, and it is through her visiting Devlin's dream that him and Ani are able to save Sorcha and thus faerie, and form the 'shadow court' to balance Sorcha's high court. Devlin and/or Ani also has this ability to a far lesser extent, as they make out in a dreamscape so that she doesn't drain his energy the way she would in reality. Rae also 'wove' Niall and Irial's dream selves together, which given Irial's eventual death from Bananach's stabbing him means that he might get this ability as well, in a way cheating death. |

During one Robot Chicken sketch, The Nerd starts dreaming of being in The Wizard of Oz. He realizes this is his dream and decides to make it 'super cool', changing the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion into The Crow, Optimus Prime, and Lion-O. After defeating the flying monkeys and the Wicked Witch (by peeing on her, no less), The Nerd changes his dream one more time so they're all on a topless beach in France. | |

Danny Phantom had a few characters with these kind of powers. The Fright Knight was, as his name suggested, a medieval warrior who had the power to transport one into a dream-like realm based on their worst fears. There was also Nocturne, the Ghost Of Sleep, who fed on the energy of sleepers. With enough power, he had the ability to control what happened in any dream, including allowing Danny to escape his own. Finally, there was Nightmerica, a female movie monster version of Freddy Krugar that was made real by ghost magic. Though she only played a cameo, if she's indeed like the villain she's based off of (and her name gives any indication to her powers), then Danny and his friends are probably lucky to have only fought her once. | |

Princess Luna of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has the power to enter the dreams of her subjects, and also control them. She does this in part to protect them from their nightmares, and also to show them what their unconscious mind is trying to deal with. In "For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils", Princess Luna guides Sweetie Belle's dream to show her the possible consequences of her actions of the previous day. The episode "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?" sees Luna chasing a nightmare-causing monster called the Tantabus through the dreams of the Mane Six. Then when the Tantabus infects the dreams of all of Ponyville, Luna is able to pull all of the town's residents into one massive dream, where they all help fight the monster. |

Doctor Who: "Amy's Choice": The Doctor, Amy, and Rory are trapped in a dream. The man keeping them there introduces himself thus: "If you're the Time Lord, then you can call me the... Dream Lord." Both the dream and the "real world" are All Just a Dream, and the Dream Lord is a manifestation of the Doctor's darker side created by psychic pollen. "Last Christmas": The Dream Crabs trap their victims in dreams as a Lotus-Eater Machine so they can eat their brains. |

The high spirits, both light and dark, are all dream weavers in Astral Dawn. They used their immense psychic power to create the worlds they inhabit. The fact the astral plane is a higher dimension of energy and thought is what made these acts fairly easy. A spirit's personal pocket dimension is called a dream realm in Averya. The same thing is called a nightmare realm in Nazyra. |

The dream seers of X/1999: Kakyou, Hinoto, Kanoe (only in the TV series, in the rest she's more of a Dream Walker), and Kotori Also, it's revealed that the deceased Hokuto Sumeragi possessed a similar hability, though at a much lower degree; it's hinted that she can only pull this when she's asleep (the others can do it when awake too), and she can enter others's dreams but her influence on them is quite limited. This allows her and Kakyou to meet and fall in love, despite never seeing each other in the real world. It ends in tears. |

At the end of the first book in the trilogy, the Star uses this ability to trap the hero in a dream of perfect happiness, from which he has no will to escape. | |

One mortal man in Charmed (1998), is a scientist that somehow developed a non-magical method to enter dreams and kill people in them, Your Mind Makes It Real making this actually lethal. He was an Evil Cripple that used it to take petty vengeance on any women he believed spurned his advances. | |

In Babylon 5, Lyta Alexander threatens to implant a nightmare so deep in Londo's subconscious that he would spend every night screaming if he turns her in to the Psi Corps. | |

This is the daily trade of the Extractors in Inception. They create a custom dream for their target which hopefully gets them to spill some closely guarded secret. When the dreamer wakes up, the whole dream will fade, but the extractors remember everything they saw and learned. Particularly Ariadne, whose job was to build intricate mazes and settings into the dream in order to confuse Fischer's subconscious. |

Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls is sometimes referred to as a "dream demon" and has Reality Warper powers within the dreamscape. He cannot physically affect the real world until the finale, where he is let loose upon the physical plane, but can roam through minds at will and may even inflict Demonic Possession on those who allow him in, usually unwittingly. | |

The Wheel of Time (2021): Lanfear, one of the Forsaken, is well known for her skill with manipulating Tel'aran'rhiod, the world of dreams. She can make herself appear as other people there or even create whole dream environments. Moiraine thus tries to keep herself and Rand awake for as long as possible while Lanfear is chasing them so she can't attack them in Tel'aran'rhiod as they dream. However, then Moiraine realizes using Rand as bait to find out Ishamael's plans from Lanfear may work, and so sends him into a dream. | |
