[X] Nightmare Lord

The Lord appears before mortals in the form of a humanoid with silver skin and scarlet eyes, dressed in a toga of gray fabric. He travels through the dreams of mortals, where he penetrates their subconscious in search of their knowledge, secrets and weaknesses. Having received the necessary information, he creates a nightmare inside the victim's dream, which from now on will torment her every time she goes to bed. Once a nightmare absorbs a certain amount of horror, it evolves into a semblance of intelligence and leaves behind a less developed copy of itself. After that, he goes in search of new victims.

Nightmares within the dreams of their victims have tremendous power over the latter, which only increases as the victim goes crazy with fear. Up to the point that a nightmare can affect the subconscious of the victims, or by killing them inside a dream, kill them in reality. With each new victim, the nightmare grows both in strength and in mind, acquiring individuality. The oldest of nightmares can even penetrate reality, although they will be weakened in the waking world.

Although nightmares are individual both in terms of strengths and in terms of aspirations and desires, one desire is common to all nightmares. This desire to serve their Master is of the highest priority for them. They create cults among mortals dedicated to their Lord, seek secrets and knowledge for him, and also try to punish anyone for any disregard for their Lord. Both real and imaginary.

But if everything is clear with nightmares, then what about those mortals who join cults, why do they do it? Well, first of all, in order to protect yourself from nightmares. Nightmares usually do not torment their cultists except to punish the wrongdoers. Secondly, being the hands of nightmares in the waking world has its advantages. For loyal service and sacrifice, a nightmare can teach a cultist new skills by literally writing information into their subconscious. So a cultist can become a skilled swordsman or a connoisseur of medicinal herbs overnight. Being able to read mortals like an open book makes Nightmares possess many secrets that cultists can obtain for a fee. And this is not to mention the fact that nightmares for certain victims or services can, for example, kill a competitor of a cultist in a dream or affect his subconscious, making him more ready to cooperate. The most fanatical cultists can even let the nightmares into their bodies, thus gaining some of their power. Or call them into the waking world.

Nightmare-possessed mortals have red eyes and silver skin. They can release a frightening aura that makes anyone who is weak in spirit freeze in place. Their skin is now invulnerable to conventional weapons and their eyes see perfectly in the dark. They no longer need to rest, which, together with their new power, which allows them to turn a person into a bloody mess with one blow, makes them quite dangerous on a mortal level.

I think this is the fastest I've ever hit the goal for an Act in one of these.

Mango's system needs around 6 more Votes to pass… or one more and use the alternative boosting methods we have.
 
Stone of Law needs two more votes to pass I think? (To get Lesser as base and greater as a boost)
Anyone want to trade votes?
 
Nope. I just realized that God of Stone passed as Grand, to empower it meaingfully with new domains it requires Greater for it to past.

Usually it is Gods are Greater to be actually be worthy of the title and Lesser to give new domains, but God of Stone is pretty beefed up at Grand.
