"I pleasure in giving my loyal followers a peaceful night's rest. In return, I quench my thirst on the sweet nectar of their dreams, to which they forget." (He sometimes spreads his wings as intimidation.)

I've had the idea for a Cult of the Lamb 2 for awhile.

Cult of the Lamb 2: Missionary Journey

In it the Lamb decides to travel to reaches beyond the Lands of the Old Faith. Finding other gods to face and more followers to recruit. But they cannot do it entirely themselves. As there is still the main part of their cult to run. The Lamb recruits local, fellow bovine followers. Each gifted with a copy given crown, allowing them to wield vessel powers of their own. Their strength only able to grow by their own, and others' growing devotion to the Lamb. Able to call upon the Lamb should they need them. The Lamb's missionaries spread the gospel of the Lamb across the lands beyond. Facing vengeful gods of their own, who will not take the Lamb engrossing on their territory and devotion without a fight.

Salvanis is the God of Slumber and ruler of Ogren Canyon. Salvanis has power over sleep and those who seek it's welcoming embrace. His followers revel in the sweet slumbers he bestows onto them. When he is displeased however, he can take away and deprive those who dissatisfy him of sleep. But if one crosses him, he will unleash onto them a frenzy of terrible nightmares. Only once has Salvanis ever condemned a heretic with an eternal slumber of unending nightmares. What Salvanis truly relishes in his duty however, are the dreams of his sleepers. Salvanis feeds on the good dreams of sleepers. He's responsible for the why those who've had dreams forgot them. The happier the dreams, sweeter the taste. Which is why he tries to give his most loyal followers the best dreams they can have. Enjoy them while they can, since they won't be remembering them. Salvanis doesn't just exist in the materiel world however. Half of his being resides in the dream realm. It is there where he finds and feeds on the dreams of those beyond his followers. In Salvanis' gospel it is either have dreams to never remember, or be plagued with nightmares you'll never forget. Truthfully his followers are content with the good sleep he gives, their dreams are of no consequence. He can also puppet his followers in their slumber, turning them into mindless sleepwalkers. As Salvanis is a bat and he governs sleep, he is naturally noctural.

Salvanis is known by many names. the God of Slumber, the Bringer of Nightmares, the Dream Vampire, Depriver of Sleep, Sleepwalker Puppeteer, the Dark Canyon King, and most famously the Dream Reaver.
