                                                                                                             Are you a Dreamer?

It is often said that the first gift given to civilization was the ability to have visions after drifting into the darkness. Do you often wonder about the faces you see in your sleep? For thousands of years, we have found myths and truths within the very visions we see behind our eyes when we sleep. 

The year is 2018. Welcome to Bend, Oregon. A white building in the center of town stands, looming, offering answers, promising intrigue at the very least. A chance to be different. To be something more than yourself. What if your dreams were really the door to witness your past life? Would you take such a chance to see who you might have been in your past presence on earth? That’s what the billboards say. It’s a nice thought, until you’re strapped to the chair, about to go under, go back, for the very first time. Then the thought is all too real.

Hunted, chased back through time by a mysterious organization calling themselves the Rouse, the Dreamers now find themselves not only shunned by society, belonging not more in one time than another, but with targets painted on their backs. Would you take the chance, if you could? The shadows are calling from your dreams. But still the question looms:

Is any of it even real?

❝ ⚊ MR. NYE, we’re very lucky to hear you speak, today. we’d like to thank you for taking time out of your busy travel schedule in order to speak to us today about your findings. it’s rare that such a renowned archaeologist has time to speak about their experiences out in the field to such a widespread audience. now, do you mind telling us about your MOST RECENT DISCOVERIES ? ❞ THIS IS A TAG DUMP & INTRODUCTION

hello! i’m LEILA, i’m SIXTEEN (which means i am unable to smut or participate in uber mature material), i’m in the MST timezone, and i’ll be playing crispin aloysius nye (such a pretentious name, i know), who is a THIEF and a scoundrel. an abridged biography is below the cut with a few wanted connection ideas, and such. if you like this post, i’ll be sure to send a message to plot with you!

❝ ⚊ WHO WAS CRISPIN NYE ❞

the british-born, american-raised son of two fairly well-off journalists, crispin was no stranger to travel. his parents took him on safari’s throughout the serengeti before he was even able to walk. and, he rarely spent any time at their family home in new york. he was home-schooled through several tutors his parents would bring along on their expeditions. a young crispin spent several hours in ibiza learning to do math by counting the seashells on the beach, he spent a week in the vatican learning latin from catholic ceremonies, and even did his final for history by collecting and archiving the oral histories of several members of the maasai people in tanzania. there was no shortage of adventure in the young boy’s life, and he planned to travel for the rest of his life if he could help it.

he fell in love with the stories of each land he visited, and he couldn’t help but wonder about what lurked behind the decrepit walls of the ruins his family came across in their adventures. and by the time he was twelve, his parents saw potential in the way he excavated the world with his curiosity and keen eye for secrets. they pushed him to explore everything he could, and never turn down an opportunity to bring a secret to light. as journalists they wanted to give crispin the chance to explore his dreams rather than have them crushed, so he spent his childhood as a wanderlustful voyager.

he took a break from his travels when he was college-aged, knowing that it took more than just the love of travel to get around the globe. he needed a job, and he wanted more than a nine-to-five. when he was eighteen, he majored in anthropology with a minor in ancient languages and literature. for four years he studied hard for his bachelor’s degree, and went through six more years of post-baccalaureate education to receive his master’s and a phd for archaeology. at the young age of 27 he made his way into the world to begin exploring again.

❝ ⚊ A CHANGE OF PLANS ❞ [ t.w. DEATH ]

it wasn’t long before he got into the field again. focusing his attention on one of the most beloved cities of his research - pompeii. some of his finds gained him notoriety among the archaeological community, and even outside of that group. he got under the table offers from anonymous investors offering millions, even a billion dollars, for objects that he had acquired. crispin denied their offers at first, believing that it wasn’t right to give up artifacts to anything more than an educational institution...

but, crispin changed when he met one gianpreet kaur, a young woman who was doing a field study for her university. crispin and her began to see each other almost immediately, and as soon as she was done with her program, the two of them got married in paris, since crispin had a speech to give in a local museum in the same week.

married life was wonderful, and crispin knew that gia was the one, but they were rarely together. an archaeologist being married to an anthropologist was hellish when it came to finding time to spend together. crispin flew out of cities constantly, barely having time to kiss his wife on the cheek as he headed out of the door. and this continued until a fatal night where gia was meant to fly into rome to meet crispin on his latest study. the plane didn’t make it far before crashing, and crispin was overcome with grief for his young wife.

after losing the only thing that he truly needed in his life, crispin went off the deep end. on drunken nights, without a care, he sold items found by his wife to those anonymous buyers, not wanting to see any remains of her.

this was the beginning of his thieving, conning ways.

❝ ⚊ A NEW BEGINNING ❞

two years ago, crispin nye was last seen on a plane to bend, oregon to meet with a local benefactor. he hasn’t returned to the world of archaeology, or so others think. he’s become a member of rouse after they examined his ability to dream himself into another era.

he’s currently positioned in the era of ceasar (approximately 50 B.C.E.) meant to steal a ring that is full of riches a man could only dream of. it is also one of ceasar’s secrets to success, as it gives him the confidence to bring rise to the roman republic. without the roman republic, the world wouldn’t have the same philosophies, spread of technologies, or concept of religion as we see today. caesar began a revolution, but might crispin end it?

❝ ⚊ SPARKNOTES EDITION ❞

grew up travelling with his eccentric journalist parents, was that one kid who has crazy stories from growing up but thinks that they're absolutely normal and doesn't get why other kids haven't ridden on a camel throughout the desert while a sandstorm happened.

he got his phd in archaeology and he became ana archaeologist at age 27. he's now thirty-three and has already had a whole lotta life experiences.

he was married when he was 28, and she died only two years into their marriage. he still hasn't gotten over her, and in his past life he definitely tries to make his pain better by sleeping around.

in bend, he tries to stay pretty under the radar. he goes out for coffee, and to get the paper, but he spends most of his time asleep. he doesn't have a high regard for the people or the town. he only moved two-ish years ago, so he's a newcomer.

formerly a dealer of artifacts from the sites he would excavate. he only became a thief and such after his wife's death. it was initially to get rid of all of her things.

he's pretty closed off, but he hides his true self through his charm. he likes smiling a lot and looking pretty.

❝ ⚊ CONNECTION IDEAS ❞

PERHAPS, someone who recognizes him from his archaeology career and questions what he could be doing in bend, and like if he's a dreamer or .

a potential romantic partner either in the present or in past lives? considering he pretty much abandoned romance the moment his wife died, it would be interesting to see him changed by the prospect of romance.

someone from doyco/rouse that he's friends with and who he discusses his work with. they're typical work buddies, go out for a drink or two after their job is done on friday.

a neighbor who he literally hates. perhaps their dog has pissed on his lawn too many times, or he hates the music they blast during their parties when he could be sleeping.

someone he accidentally helped in his dreams? he's meant to be bad, but crispin is unwilling to kill or let someone else be killed in his dreams for no reason.

ahhhh i'm out of ideas, but if you have some let me know.
