Hulm

==Appearance == Hulm appears to mortals only in dreams and trances, and as such their true form is unknown. Within the dreamscape, Hulm has no single fixed form, but appears most commonly as a small spider weaving a web, a fish with midnight-blue scales, an owl in the middle of a clearing, and a Cephaloid whose face is obscured by the moon. Fine details surrounding encounters with Hulm seem to fade away once the mortals awaken. 

 ==Symbol == A full moon with a blank eye at its center. 

 ==Personality == Hulm thrives on the limitless possibility of dreams. They draw power from the dreamscapes of mortals, and seek to reshape the waking world in its image.

Rarely, Hulm will grant devout worshippers a boon allowing them to deceive reality, manifesting a sliver of the realm of dreams in the waking world for a short time, but much like dreams themselves, these manifestations are unstable and unpredictable.

Hulm’s boons proved too intractable to the pursuit of knowledge- and indeed, Hulm may have intended it so. <p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> <p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;">

These worshippers typically devolve into fits of delusion and eventual insanity while attempting to understand Hulm’s cryptic and surreal messages. In truth, Hulm may not have seen fit to appear to them at all.
