My Dreamwalker System

Xander Nyxon was born with a gift: the ability to lift the veil of sleep and travel to the world beyond. He is one of the few rare individuals who can enter dreams and nightmares at will. While most Dreamwalkers ply their trade on the Dreamscape, Xander Nyxon is one of the reckless few who travels to the Nightscape seeking answers from the deceased. However, walking through nightmares is a perilous task even for the most experienced Dreamwalker. A thin veil separates the real world from the realm beyond, holding the terrors of the Nightscape at bay. But things quickly go wrong when a group of cultists cause the wall between the worlds to crumble. What happens when dreams and nightmares merge with the real world and twisted Ethereals start clawing their way out of the Nightscape? *** Xander was lifted off his feet and pushed back several paces. He desperately tried to get back on the ground, but his legs kept dangling mid-air. “I knew you’d be coming,” the mysterious figure whispered, pulling his hood back to reveal a hideous face riddled with scars. He was blind in the left eye and all his teeth were grimy black. “What the hell are you freaks up to?” Xander growled, desperately trying to break free from the cultist’s grasp. “Who are you guys?” The cultist smiled at this and replied, “Our names are inconsequential, Dreamwalker. But I think you already know what we are up to. Our world is plagued by sin. It is time for it to be cleansed by the Dark Deity’s blessing!” What to expect? 1. Dungeons. 2. Magic. 3. Creatures from folklore, myth and fantasy. 4. A level-up system with skill upgrades. 5. Mystery and adventure. [If you like the story, do consider buying privilege/premium chapters to help me out.

The flickering flames burning around Xander were beginning to die out, causing the shadows to creep up on him from every dark corner. He could hear the spider skittering across the walls, but it was moving so quickly it was impossible for him to keep track of the arachnid.

Unable to pinpoint the spider's location, Xander stood deathly still without moving a single inch from his spot. Only his eyes wandered across the room, searching the darkness for the arachnid. 

With only three cards left in his inventory, Xander didn't want to waste one needlessly, but the spider left him with no choice. He snapped his fingers as softly as he could, summoning the 'Eye of Truth.'

Though the 'Eye of Truth' could detect hostile Ethereals in the vicinity, Xander still had no idea if it would work against a reinforced illusion, but he decided to give it a try.

Holding the card high above his head, he whispered, "Play card: Eye of Truth."
