Sanderson Mansnoozie

Sanderson Mansnoozie (better known as Sandy or the Sandman) is one of the protagonists from William Joyce's Guardians of Childhood series .
== Background ==
===Personality===
Communicating through the shapes of the dreamsand he creates to his friends, Sandy is the oldest and wisest of the Guardians, being the first created by the Man in the Moon.  He was much loved and respected by his closest friends (Jack Frost, North, Bunny and Toothiana respectfully). Sandy is also a very gentle person who spreads joy to children by giving them pleasant dreams.
=== Powers ===
* Dreamsand Manipulation - The Sandman's main power is his control over dreamsand, a golden-like sand that he uses to send sweet dreams to all the children of the world. The sand is entirely under his control and used for a variety of purposes, particularly some creative means and methods. 
** Hypnokinesis - Sandy possesses various magical powers that involve sleep and dreams. All dreams he creates are good and pleasant, he can sense anyone who's asleep and know to send them a good dream, etc. When someone gets a straight exposure of Dreamsand, they almost instantly fall asleep on the spot, and Dreamsand images appear over their heads of what they're dreaming about.
** Oneirokinesis - Sandy's dreamsand allows children to chase their pleasant dreams and fulfill their wishes, as well as provide them with a peaceful rest to give them energy and emotional stability. 
** Construct Creation - Sandy can also manifest almost anything out of his Dreamsand, such as airplanes, dolphins, unicorns, dinosaurs, manta rays.
** Image Communication - As Sandy doesn't speak, he communicates by forming images of his Dreamsand over above his head.
** Dream Empowerment - As the Guardian of Dreams, Sandy can be strengthened by the concept of dreams and his believers, which brought him back to life after Pitch killed him with a Nightmare arrow.
* Levitation - Sandy is lighter than most people and is not affected by gravity the way humans are, so he hovers above the ground and can levitate and fly, although he appears to use his Dreamsand to propel him to fly faster.
* Immortality - Like the Guardians, Sandy is immortal and untouchable to anything that happens in time. However, He can be killed by someone more powerful than him as Pitch (whose power was growing thanks to his Nightmares) was able to destroy him with a dreamsand arrow but Sandy returns at the end to defeat Pitch Black.
