Peekaboo

## Background Information

**Peekaboo** is the main antagonist of *You're Still Here*. She rather appears as a mischievous child, but is in reality a terrifying monster from another dimension whose appearance drives people mad.

## Abilities

Peekaboo is a very powerful entity with many supernatural powers and abilities.

* **Nigh-Omnipotence:** Peekaboo is almighty in every sense in the City of Dreams, having infinite power and abilities that can elevate them to a supreme position in dream reality and superhuman in the real world. Peekaboo can manipulate all forms of dreams freely and without limit be it their own or others. They can extend dreams beyond their boundaries and into the real world, making any dream have a complete impact on reality and in their control. The power can be used to imbue Peekaboo into reality with reasonably limited abilities due to already being in reality, making them superhuman or just nigh omnipotent.
* **Oneirokinesis:** Peekaboo can manipulate the dreams of others, including fabricating, influencing and observing dreams as well as nightmares and daydreams. In some cases, their power extends to the real world, such as wounds inflicted on a sleeping victim, healed damage (mental or physical) affecting the physical form, and otherwise blurring the line between waking and dreaming. They may be able to pull someone from the waking world into the dream world or brings people/things from the dream world into the waking world.
	+ **Dream Walking:** Peekaboo is capable of entering the dreams of others. They can observe/view the dreams of other people, seeing what others are dreaming, whether it is pleasant or not, and sometimes precinct the future based on these dreams.
	+ **Imprisonment:** Peekaboo can create a false reality/illusion in dreams and trap others inside either the user’s or the target’s dreams/nightmares. The target's body may stay in the waking world while their mind/soul is trapped, or it may disappear into the dream as well.
	+ **Fantasy Connecting:** Peekaboo can materialize the sequences of dreams, nightmares, or visions the user or others experienced into reality. The user essentially possesses a potent variant of dream creation; the user doesn't need to be unconscious to dream. They can upload their previous dreams or daydreams while conscious of reality. Another benefit of dream materialization is they can insert their complete dream sequences instead of creating things and beings, carrying out the dream sequence in real-time.
* **Reality Warping:** Peekaboo can spread large amounts of sparkling waves that bend the environment.
* **Teleportation:** Peekaboo can teleport via dreams/sleep to anywhere where an individual sleeps and/or teleport subjects into dreams, trapping them within. Conversely, objects or beings native to dreams may also be brought out of a running subconscious and into the real world causing those that would otherwise only exist in dreams to forcibly manifest into tangible reality.
* **Illusion Manipulation:** Peekaboo can induce hallucinations, but has little to no ability to manipulate or interact with them once induced. These purely mental and sensory based perceptive distortions are often only visual or auditory but can sometimes be tactile and even cause physical pain. They can be used as distractions, cause the target to go insane from wild sensation or even cause the target’s mind to collapse permanently.
* **Space-Time Manipulation:** Peekaboo can manipulate the space-time continuum of every reality, whether it be a higher dimension, a parallel universe, a dream world, etc. They are able to bend, distort, and alter the very fabric of existence anywhere and everywhere to their desire, even locations where time and space may not even exist.
* **Causality Manipulation:** Peekaboo can manipulate causality, the relationship between causes and effects, allowing them to decide what happens and what doesn't, when and how. There is no need for a "why" however, as the why of something is determined by causality itself, which is at the users' command, making it one of the few powers that reasonably don't need a reason. They can control the flow of justified punishment which happen to others and and render themselves master of the occurrence of consequences.
* **Clairvoyance:** As a dream entity, Peekaboo can discern and instantly understand the greatest fears of other beings. They are able to truly observe the most hidden of fears within an opponent and use those fears to their advantage. In addition, Peekaboo can bring the fears of individuals to life.
