Name: Benjamin Lewis
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Sexuality: Bisexual
Godly ancestor: Niorun, the Norse Goddess of Dreams
Son/daughter or further removed: Son
Relationship with godly ancestor: The connection between the two is distant at best, as Niorun prefers staying in her hall in the realm of Svartalfheim. Most contact between is rare and made through vague dreams.
Relationship with mortal family: Ben's mortal family resides on Earth, though he regularly calls his dad to check on things and occasionally visits if he has the chance.
Powers:Prophetic DreamsBenjamin has the ability to catch glimpses of the future in his dreams. Most of the time, they're vague snippets that make little to no sense. These only occur when Ben is asleep and usually leave a jarringly uncomfortable aftereffect when he wakes up. Because of this, Ben tries to avoid sleeping as much as he humanly can.
Dream WalkerBen can enter another person's dreams by going into a meditative state. With a bit of concentration,
he can even bend and change elements of the dream.
Hidden VeilNiorun is known, or rather unknown, to have a face that is rarely seen, if at all. A trait she passed down to Benjamin. Sort of. Ben is able to cast a 'veil' over his face, making his features obscure and difficult to remember, even to those that have already seen him. Though a useful disguise, it's exhausting to use
Personality:Ben is...
odd, to say the least.
A calm individual, Ben greets the world with a dull look unfazed by anything. While not entirely stoic, he's not exactly the most expressive either. His constantly bored look, with his deadpan tone and pension for sarcasm, make it difficult to tell whether or not he's serious most of the time. Ben holds a cynical view of the world, but oddly enough tends to voice his thoughts in an almost casual, joking fashion. He holds a strange sense of humor, and has a tendency to choose things that are more entertaining than conventional. Ben's open towards sharing the trivial aspects of his life, but is heavily guarded about his personal life, even towards friends. Despite his idiosyncratic nature, he's generous and enjoys helping people when he can.
Bio:Benjamin was the son of his father's dreams. Literally.
Ben's father, a kindly man named Marvin, was frequently visited by Niorun in his dreams. For reasons known only to the goddess, she took a liking to Marvin and as a result, a child was manifested. Suffice to say, there was much confusion and panic that morning.
Though Ben's birth was less than normal, his childhood was fairly plain save for his odd dreams. Though mild at first, over time they began to grow in intensity to the point where Ben actively refused to sleep for however long he could. His father grew concerned with this change and actively sought help. That was when Ben talked to his mother for the first time. In a dream, Niorun spoke of a place where Ben could grow and learn -- New Celestia. Though reluctant to leave his father for an unknown place, Ben eventually succumbed and soon traveled to his new home.
