Nightmare, also known as Gloria Rebel Pasbelletti, is a Victorian operative working under the code name "Nightmare" within Rhodes Island. Prior to joining Rhodes Island, she was a college student with two areas of expertise: advanced medical arts and intervention counseling. With proficiency in both medical and combat arts, Nightmare currently serves in Rhodes Island's triage section, where her skills are put to use.

Gloria, or Nightmare, possesses a complex and enigmatic personality. She has exhibited signs of anxiety and panic during therapy sessions, often refusing to answer questions and hindering effective communication. However, the use of flowers and aromatherapy has proven to be highly effective in helping her relax. Once assured that the content of her sessions would remain confidential, Gloria gradually revealed her true meek nature.

Born and raised in a small artistic city in Victoria, Gloria initially showed no interest in Originium until middle school. While she demonstrated a unique talent for it during her tests at Rhodes Island, she remains reluctant to engage with Originium-related matters. Gloria's path to becoming a medical student was disrupted by her infection, and she still cannot recall how she became infected. It is worth noting that during her therapy sessions, an alternate personality known as "Nightmare" emerged, and it appeared that only Nightmare possessed the memories of the infection. Temporary memory loss is a common symptom of Oripathy, and any investigations into Gloria's infection should consider this factor.

According to available intelligence, Gloria had at least six months of combat experience before joining Rhodes Island, with her more militant and aggressive persona, Nightmare, seemingly responsible for this period. Gloria's unique ability stems from her knowledge of the medical application of Originium and her personal experiences as an infected. She is proficient in both medical arts, allowing her to heal her teammates, and combat arts, making her a versatile asset to Rhodes Island.

Gloria's father left her a staff with its own inherent power, which she claims can enhance the effectiveness of healing arts. Tests conducted by warlock Operators have revealed that the staff's abilities can be harnessed through a process akin to hypnosis. Test subjects have reported experiencing dreams while in this hypnotized state, entering rapid eye movement (REM) sleep but bypassing other stages of the normal sleep cycle. They remain in this state until awakened.

While Oripathy can lead to Multiple Personality Disorder, Gloria's condition is unique among stable Operators receiving conservative treatment. She experiences a significant hurdle in the form of her aggressive alter ego, Nightmare, who takes control during moments when Gloria loses control. Studies have indicated that Nightmare is the dominant personality and remains fully conscious within Gloria. Observations have even shown Nightmare attempting to regain control over Gloria's body. Despite counseling efforts, the medical team has been unable to integrate Gloria and Nightmare into a single personality. As such, the decision to allow her to continue working for Rhodes Island must be made after a doctor develops a relationship with Gloria.

Dr. Kal'tsit has asserted that integrating Gloria's personalities is the only viable option. However, she has not specified which personality would become dominant after assimilation, leaving this outcome uncertain.

Gloria's alter ego Nightmare is constantly trying to gain control of her body, while Nightmare is in control she takes on a more sadistic and dominant nature. she'll often threaten others and wants to know where Rhodes Island stores their originum
