I'm just glad my general take on Avatar Synergies is a good one. Now I
just need to write up my stuff for 'Nameless Dreads', the flotsam and
jetsam of the collective unconscious, the urban horrors, and nightmare
creations of the the things that the Invisible Clergy fears.
It's the category I tend to put the Eye-Biting man in, despite the hint
at Anagramatic origins. Then again I interpret the Eye-Biting man as the
Corinthian from Sandman, a nightmare out of control. I also define it as
corrupted avatar power, and introduced it into my own games with Garden
of Weeds.
"Nameless Dreads" ask for them.. by.. uhm... name?
