Occupation: Dubious Antique Dealer


Mythos: God of Sleep and Dreams


 
Bio: In the heart of the bustling city, where the line between reality and dreams blurs, resides Declan Le'Strange—a man as enigmatic as the ancient artifacts he peddles. With an air of mystique and an aura of both danger and allure, Declan operates his antique shop, "Somnium Curiosities," nestled within the hidden corners of the metropolis.
 
Declan's origins are shrouded in uncertainty, and he speaks little of his past. Whispers in the city's underbelly suggest that he might have struck a perilous bargain with the God of Sleep and Dreams, inviting both its blessings and curses into his life. His knowledge of antiquities runs deep, and he seems to have a preternatural ability to discern the hidden stories behind each artifact—tales of forgotten civilizations, cryptic rituals, and dreams that transcended time.
 
Touched by the god's power, Declan possesses a unique talent to walk the borderland between wakefulness and slumber. He can traverse the dreamscapes, exploring the realm of the subconscious, seeking secrets and unraveling enigmas that evade the waking eye. Yet, this gift comes at a price. The dreams he touches sometimes leak into reality, causing unsettling disturbances in the world around him. Objects from his collection are often imbued with dreams, carrying the hopes and fears of both the living and the long-gone.
 
With an air of charming duplicity, Declan strikes deals with collectors, scholars, and those drawn to the mystic unknown. His deals are never simple transactions; they're a dance between desire and danger, as customers may unwittingly find themselves ensnared in the shifting tapestry of dreams he weaves. And while he cultivates a network of informants and allies, his motives remain as inscrutable as the ancient artifacts he deals in.
 
Whether an ally or a foe, an associate or a pawn, crossing paths with Declan Le'Strange is an invitation to journey through the twilight of reality, where the realms of dreams and antiquities intertwine, leaving one to question the boundaries between truth and fantasy, wakefulness and slumber.
