Dream Guide - Lore
Static
Effect: You gain a Dream Guide, a sentient Oneroi from the Dream Realms that has taken a liking to you and chosen to bond with you. It has an appearance of your choosing, is capable of speech, and has its own personality distinct from yours. If it’s destroyed, it can be summoned again by performing a 1-Hour Ritual.

The area 1 meter around your Dream Guide is always considered to be ‘Dreamscape’ for the purposes of spells. Your Dream Guide must also remain within 20 meters of you; if it goes more than 20 meters away from you either willingly or by force, it simply teleports back to an empty space adjacent to you.

Dream Guides are mostly incorporeal - they have Resonance instead of Destiny or Health. They can be attacked, but instead of taking damage they lose 1 Resonance whenever they are attacked. Ranged attacks pass through them after dealing Resonance damage, but rolls to hit targets through a Dream Guide this way are made with Disadvantage.

Additionally, by spending 1 additional Aether, you may use your Dream Guide as the origin point for any Dream Magic you cast.

In Combat, Dream Guides have a Movement Action and act when your Mage does.

Once per Scene per target.

	- Manifestation: Takes Mage's Move or Standard Action. 2 Aether + 1 Resonance. Your Dream Guide gains physical form for one round in a burst of volatile dream magic.
