Dreamers

Untrained shapers in the First Fold can unconsciously shape wild islands and wildlings in the Delirium. When they sleep, untrained shapers can also send their consciousness across the folds. They may appear to be physically present, but their bodies remain in the First Fold. The Passionate call these visitors Dreamers.

On most civilized shards, Dreamers are generally treated with respect, at a distance. Since Dreamers are asleep, they may wear odd clothing, and they may say and do odd things. They may seem illogical, incoherent, or simply insane. Dreamers may sometimes seem to do things that are absolutely Vulgar, but nothing a Dreamer does has any reality in the Delirium. Most Passionate simply ignore Dreamers, unless a Dreamer becomes annoying or hostile. Then the Dream Monarch or a retainer will send the Dreamer back to the Vapors.
