Dream eaters are horrors that feed on the dreams, sense of identity, and—some say—the very souls of other creatures. Dream eaters have the bodies and wings of great owls, while their beaks are filled with blunt, humanlike teeth and hide long snaking tongues. Their feathers are drab colors on the exterior, but their wings display a dazzling cascade of rainbow hues on the undersides when unfurled. These colors flow and shift, mesmerizing the dream eater’s prey and leaving them helpless. A creature whose dreams are devoured is left in a listless, near-blank state. Without help, their victims waste away.

Secret. Dream eaters are confused by the intricate patterns on moth wings, and it disrupts their own colorful hypnosis.
