History:
The dreamwalker bloodline started with a man named Calligula in Romania around the same time as Dracula. Calligula hated the fact that he had to depend on anything to sustain him, but here he was, a vampire that needed to feed on human blood. "Though not drinking," he thought, "I won't die, but I'll be weak. There must be another way."
So Calligula decided to starve and meditate on a new way to sustain his imortal soul until one day, years after, he found the key. The body does not need to feed once it's already dead, it's the soul that needs feedings, he needed spiritual energy. That night he went to a ball and practiced trying to steal energy, but he failed. He went to the garden in the middle of the mansion and fell asleep in the grass. When he awoke later that night he noticed every blade of grass and insect within his aura had died and shriveled. He didn't feel as weak as he did before. He found a way to take energy from living things while asleep.
He continued to study his dreams for the next month and as it seems, they were not his dreams. While asleep he could not dream but instead enter into the dreams of others, the dreams of humans. he could drink his fill of the victums energy without fully draining or turning any of them.
Well, as he drank blood less and less his fangs went slightly dull and his lust for blood dissapeared all together.
One night, he went out to try and find someone to drink from for old time sake. Not only that but he was getting lonely, but no matter how many times he tried turning someone they always ended up dying or in a coma. Calligula couldn't understand what could have changed, until he remembered that he was feeding his soul and not his body, so he could not use pure lust to turn another, he needed a spiritual connection, someone who would feel just like him at the same moment that he turned them. It had to be a person who felt the pain and lust at the same time, so in otherwords, the best way to have someone like that it needed to be intimate. They would have to feel the pain and passion at the same time for him to turn her.
The next day he put his theory to the test, and it worked on a woman name Edrelle. The blood line continues from there on. A newer form of vampire was born. Calligula died from over eating. A soul payable by a soul as it were.
So now whenever someone dies in their sleep...you'll know why.
Dreamwalker abilities:
Dreamwalkers are cursed to never have dreams of their own but instead use other dreams as hunting grounds. HUnting grounds are split into secions so that their is piece in this world. The only dreamwalking vampires allowed to own any section of this world are the ones which are pure blood. Although they are indeed vampires they decided to start their lives as a new species and therefore had a new bloodline and therefore, instead of Calligula being a third generation vampire he became the first generation of dreamwalker.
If a dreamwalker turns someone then that ultimatley means they have to share their section of the dreamland with them. If a turned wanders outside of it's masters boundries it is sure to die if caught by another dreamwalker of any form. A dreamwalker has preferences when it comes to the dream that it wants to change for a hunt. Be careful though, if dreamwalkers divour too much of a human soul they can take a personality trait. If the person is killed in their sleep because of a dreamwalker divouring the soul then the dreamwalker will die as well "A soul for a soul," as it were. So, just as a vampire needs to be careful with whos blood it drinks, so does a dreamwalker need to be with souls.
