BACKSTORY & HISTORY

Nerian’s childhood in Paris was harsh and lonely. Cast out by his family for reasons he never fully understood, he spent years as a loner, drifting through orphanages and the streets. Hunger, neglect, and isolation shaped him, teaching him the fragility of trust and the value of self-reliance.

One night, wandering aimlessly, he encountered a strange, eccentric wizard who recognized a rare spark in Nerian—an affinity with dreams themselves. Under the wizard’s guidance, he learned to see, shape, and trade in the subconscious, unlocking powers beyond ordinary comprehension.

It was during a dangerous experiment in manipulating dreams—a ritual to pierce the veil between reality and the subconscious—that Nerian lost his eye. The accident was a mixture of miscalculation and risk, leaving a permanent wound that could have killed a lesser apprentice. The wizard saved him, replacing the lost eye with a red prosthetic imbued with enchantments, allowing Nerian to see layers of dreams that no one else could perceive.

By the time he left his mentor, Nerian had transformed from an abandoned boy into a master of dreams: a collector of fantasies, a broker of desire, and a manipulator of reality itself. Now, he appears where he is needed, often when people are desperate for the intangible—a dream, a memory, or a secret. His charm is undeniable, but his motives remain inscrutable. Those who encounter him rarely leave unchanged, and some never wake from the dreams he sells.
