Dreamer

Hermes, together with Xiaoli, were the mothers of all Dreamers. The design for Dreamers was first made by K'nell when he created Hermes. It was through the combined blessing of K'nell and Shengshi that Hermes became fertile, and the blessing of Arae that Xiaoli became able to reproduce with Hermes to produce the first Dreamers.

The Dreamers are well-taught by the gods and their parents, and possess a number of skills which they hone and pass on to their children and allies:
* Smelting metals: The Dreamers are familiar with melting simple metals like copper, tin, gold, lead and bronze. In time, they may figure out how to harness the power of iron.
* Stonecutting and working: The Dreamers are able builders with a good eye for stonecraft.
* Domestication and animal husbandry: The Dreamers have been taught to domesticate and keep animals among themselves. Mengcheng hosts a number of Footian oxen and birds.
* Wine making: The Dreamers are able wine makers. 
* Gardening: The Dreamers were first taught gardening by their mother Hermes. This later translated to agriculture.
* Woolworking and clothing: Dreamers were originally dependent on the tree-eaters' wool to make clothing. Today, they spin linen from flax grown aboard Mengcheng.
* Clay and clayworking: The Dreamers have long been familiar with clay, ever since it was taught by their mother Hermes. The Hermian Academy researches day and night to discover the legendary blueprints for clay weaponry.
* Shengshese reading and writing: Being the children of Shengshi's avatar, Xiaoli, the Dreamers write in Shengshese and use it as their official written language.
* Firemaking and cooking: The Dreamers are able cooks.
* Bow-crafting and fletchery: To defend their city atop Chuanwang, the Dreamers were taught to make bows to master ranged combat.
== Artifacts in Possession ==
* The Moksha Amulet: A silver amulet bearing the mark of K’nell. It will always find itself on a dreamer’s neck and will bear the words that K’nell spoke to Wenbo whenever prompted or forgotten. It will protect whoever wears it, even from Gods, putting them to sleep with the music of K’nell in a similar fashion to the Armlet of Sleep.
* The Warden: A blade, that when drawn from its scabbard, summons the Warden and a host of guardian nightmares -- additionally, it leaks a miasma that forces the foes of the wielder to experience powerful nightmarish hallucinations.
