The Dream Doctor is a hero who discovered the workings of the Circle of Thorns in the 1930s, when children were kidnapped from their homes, and no one - except Dream Doctor - could figure out what was going on.

As of Issue 22, the Dream Doctor is also a contact associated with the new Dark Astoria arcs. He is available by phone only.

Background Information

From the Circle of Thorns background story:

"In 1933, when children from poor neighborhoods started disappearing from their homes in the middle of the night, police and heroes alike were entirely baffled. There were no signs of forced entry, no clues at all. It wasn’t until the new hero known as the Dream Doctor started on the case that the true nature of the Circle of Thorns became public knowledge. A master of sorcery himself, the Dream Doctor recognized the hand of black magic in the kidnappings and traced the mystic trail back to the private club used by the Circle for its meetings.

At midnight on the anniversary of the Circle’s founding, The Dream Doctor burst in upon the foul cultists just as they prepared to sacrifice the poor children. As preternatural night engulfed the ritual chamber, the hero moved among them, his mystic blasts and spirit allies smashing through the cultists and freeing the children before Baron Zoria and his cronies knew what had happened. While the Circle’s highest-ranking members escaped, The Dream Doctor managed to capture most of the rest of the cult and bring them to justice.

That night in 1933 was the end of the Circle of Thorns' existence as a public organization. Baron Zoria and his followers literally fled into the underground, allegedly taking up quarters in the dank and dangerous ruins of Oranbega. Their first order of business was taking vengeance upon the man who had ruined them: The Dream Doctor. Knowing full well what would happen to him, the Doctor gathered about him a group of civic-minded magicians, occultists, and scholars to help protect the city against future threats from the Circle of Thorns. He called this group the Midnight Squad, and the organization persists to this day as one of the premiere superhero organizations in Paragon City.

Over the next few decades, the Circle of Thorns and the Midnight Squad continued to skirmish back and forth. Unfortunately, since only the Circle knew how to enter the lost city of Oranbega, they always had a safe and secure base to retreat in when matters grew desperate. Try as they might, the Midnight Squad could not crack the mystery of the sunken city. By the 1990’s the Circle of Thorns seemed to have dwindled to a mere shadow of its former might. Except for the occasional museum theft or kidnapped antiquarian, the villains seldom seemed to rise from their chthonic chambers."

Like many other heroes, the Dream Doctor took a temporary leave of absence from Paragon City during World War II. Although the Midnight Squad was the Dream Doctor's primary team, it was as member of the Freedom Phalanx that the Dream Doctor helped repel a 1941 Axis attack on Paragon City. Soon after, the Dream Doctor and the rest of the Freedom Phalanx traveled to Europe to join forces with England's Dawn Patrol. The Dream Doctor remained active throughout World War II, eventually becoming the leader of the 1st Hero Brigade's North African striketeam, the Sand Kings. The group was composed entirely of "street level" heroes and vigilantes, all from Paragon City. They relied on the Dream Doctor's mental powers to make sudden, covert strikes against Axis forces. In this way, they became a model for how superheroes could be most effective in modern warfare.

Memoirs

Why I Left and Why You Must Stay

Hopefully, when you read this, my name is not forgotten. I don't know why that's so important to me. I guess after all I've seen, a part of me is still human. I wonder if the same can be said for my counterpart, Rularuu.

As I used the blade, I shaved off a piece of myself. I am not the same man anymore. I still work among you - looking for answers. But I've also begun searching in the dreamspace for a way to protect you, and the rest of the world, from a fate that grows closer with each passing day. Something is coming and I must find out what it is before it's too late.

I have never been afraid to ask for help. If you remember anything about me, please remember that. But this...this is something I must do on my own. I'm going to try and save the world... again. But by all means, don't let that stop you from trying to save it first.

Where is he now?

Can you ever really kill a dream? The Dream Doctor will always be alive and well in the hearts and minds of the Midnight Squad. At last report however, he was still in dreamspace seeking ways to prevent the Circle of Thorns from ascending to ultimate power.

Information

Midnighter Club Founder

The Dream Doctor is the founder of the Midnighter Club. He originally discovered the workings of the Circle of Thorns in the 1930s and stopped them from kidnapping children from their homes.

Since those events, he has risen to almost legendary power while fighting the Thorns, founding the Midnight Squad, and fighting off the cosmic power of Rularuu. After all of those events, Dream Doctor vanished into dreamspace, claiming he was out to save the world yet again.

Dream Doctor has returned now, revealed as the letter writer who has been fighting against Ouroboros. He will not stop his crusade against the organization until he knows that humanity is safe from the terrors he believes they hold.

Initial Contact

The events in Cimerora have served to make you immune to Mot's power, Character. We must work fast, however. We bought ourselves some time with the destruction of the Knives of Vengeance, but not a lot of it.

Mot is beginning to absorb weaker heroes and villains who are near Dark Astoria... not even inside of the area now. You and I must deal with the Talons of Vengeance and the Tsoo once and for all if we are to finally stop Mot.

This won't be easy, not by a longshot, and I'm not even entirely sure this plan of mine will work, but it's the only option we have. Let's get started.

Greetings

• The time is now, Character.

No More Missions

Dark Astoria and the world are saved from Mot, but Ouroboros still looms as a threat. We will continue our fight against them soon, Character.

Story Arc

The Choice of Hope

Souvenir

Withered Piece of Mot

You recovered a withered piece of Mot after having entered the inner stomach of the god of death. This was the conclusion of your journey in Dark Astoria, something that will be remembered by the entire world as...

The Choice of Hope

Your efforts had bought enough time to figure out how to combat Mot. If you had never destroyed the Knives of Vengeance and stopped Diabolique, Mot's power would've already enveloped the world at the point when you and Dream Doctor took the fight to Mot. You fought against Tub Ci and the Tsoo to recover the last items needed to summon Tielekku, who would be used to seal Mot back into the spirit world. You also recovered the god-killer sword, an item that could take the very power of a god. Tub Ci agreed to help Dream Doctor, now that he was freed from his Mot-induced haze.

You then attacked the heart of the Talons of Vengeance within Dark Astoria, intent on stopping their mass slaughter of people in the world. Even though Diabolique was gone, their presence lingered, intent on spreading their perverse version of justice. You, Protean, Scirocco, and Dream Doctor attacked and destroyed the heart of the Talons.

It was now time to enact the plan to save Dark Astoria. Dream Doctor performed the ritual that would use David Hazen's runes to summon Tielekku. However, despite all the work up to this point, Mot was able to completely devour Tielekku, along with Ajax and Tub Ci. Protean fled, while you, Dream Doctor, and Scirocco worked together to escape from the area. Things looked grim, but there was still hope. Tielekku had mentioned she sensed something odd within the Sentinel of Mot; Dream Doctor also had an ace up his sleeve in the form of Heather Townshend, who had been collecting information about David Hazen.

You met with Townshend to gather what she knew and then went to the Vanguard compound in the Rikti War Zone. Mot's power had spread all the way over to there as it attempted to destroy the organization. You saved the group and formed a plan with Lady Grey. The Vanguard Wizards would work together to bind the Sentinel of Mot long enough for you to find out something about the beast.

You discovered the Sentinel of Mot was none other than Marcus Valerius, transformed by Mot and the hatred that was within him. You were able to help Marcus remember what actually happened in Cimerora and gained a way inside of Mot. However, there was still the issue of how to stop Mot. This came in the form of David Hazen, who revealed in his journals that the runes they put in Dark Astoria were meant to bind Mot to the town. They would also cut off his ability to absorb the suffering of others, thus stopping the god of death; however, it would require the power of Tielekku to do so.

Armed with this knowledge, you set off to go against Mot once and for all. Dream Doctor called out for all able-bodied people in the world to show up and help in the fight; Mot's power was growing by leaps and bounds, and soon the entire world would be devoured by its hatred. Hundreds of people showed up, all there to buy you time and distract Mot long enough for you to get inside of the beast.

Mot taunted you inside of it, saying that it could absorb you now that you entered so deeply in the beast. You were then absorbed by Mot, where you were sent to its deepest reaches. You were in a room filled with what appeared to be the souls of those Mot had captured. You spoke with Tielekku and convinced her that there was still hope and that you could break free. With her help, you did what no one else imagined; you broke free from Mot's absorption, returning to his stomach to free all the souls you had seen. Mot was weakened dramatically, and with Tielekku freed, she performed the last action, which was to use the runes set up by David Hazen to seal away Mot's power, once and for all.

With this action, the entire world was saved, all of it triggered by the choice to hope in the face of certain destruction, hope that something unexpected would happen to save the world; hope in someone like you.

Part One: The Long War

Briefing

Our first order of business has to be the Tsoo. Protean is working within their organization to gather the components needed to summon Tielekku, but there is only so much he can do. If we do not prevent them from summoning the goddess, they will weaken her power, leaving us without a way to banish Mot.

I believe in some twisted way Tub Ci thinks he is doing the right thing, but I fear his sanity has been corrupted by the will of Mot. The Tsoo have spent years in Dark Astoria fighting the forces of Mot. They have become jaded to the point in believing only they can stop the creature, going so far as to believe they are above a goddess.

• So, we need to find Tub Ci and his god-killer sword.

Yes, exactly. Protean has reported to me where Tub Ci last was, which was in a storage warehouse that the Tsoo have for their new 'incarnate' powered ink. He should have the sword on him, as well.

We must get to that warehouse, recover any items to summon Tielekku, find Tub Ci, and take the sword from him. I can only assume this will happen with a thorough beating of Tub Ci. Afterwards, I will see if I can talk sense into him to join our cause, as he would make a worthy ally.

Myself and Scirocco will meet you at the warehouse; Scirocco is determined to do everything he can to rescue his lackey, Ice Mistral, and I believe he can be trusted as long as he has such a drive to his actions.

Find Tub Ci

Unnecessary Solicitation

You can't get in touch with Dream Doctor.

Mission Objective(s)

You go through various winding tunnels to get into the Tsoo warehouse, located deep underground.

• Find Tub Ci
  • Recover items to summon Tielekku
  • Find Tub Ci

You found several artifacts to summon Tielekku and the location of where Tub Ci is.

Mission Objective(s)

Tub Ci is somewhere deep within these sewers, along with the sword that can take the power of a god.

• Defeat Tub Chi and Recover the God-Killer Sword
  • Defeat Tub Ci
  • 4 spirits to defeat to remove Tub Ci's invulnerability

You defeated Tub Ci and recovered the God-Killer Sword!

God-Killer Sword

You retrieved the God-Killer sword from Tub Ci after defeating him. The sword itself is twisted and looks like it would be useless in a normal fight. The only real use would be a stabbing motion, as the sides of the blade are covered with some sort of black substance that dulls it. The sword pulses an evil aura; the components that came together to create this must have been truly vile. This sword could be used to take the power from Tielekku and a weakened Mot, should you choose to use it, though there's no telling how long the sword will actually last.

Debriefing

Scirocco and Ajax are dealing with Tub Ci as we speak. Tub Ci was able to resist Mot, but not the hatred that rested in his heart.

The man had spent too long here in Astoria and this hatred of his had grown. He wanted to save the world, yet he had grown to hate the world for abandoning Dark Astoria and for ignoring the threat that was growing.

The fog has been lifted from Tub Ci's eyes, thankfully, though he must still begin to atone for the horror that is his Tsoo 'incarnate' ink. They created the ink by using the cursed souls within Dark Astoria. Some spirits were from the Circle of Thorns, others were from the cursed souls trapped within Dark Astoria. So many have tried to gain immense power through different methods, Character, however, none of them reach the same level as the power granted from the Well... unfortunately.

At any rate, the Tsoo are no longer a threat, and we have what is required to summon Tielekku. I have members of the Midnight Squad working on the ritual as we speak, using David Hazen's runes to power it. We have one last threat to deal with, Character.

Part Two: Mother May We

Briefing

The Talons of Vengeance remain in Dark Astoria, even with the destruction of Diabolique. What is worse is that they are actively going after those who they believe are 'oathbreakers', which in this case are those who survived the 'darkening' of Astoria, both from the Rikti War and from the 1950's.

This situation is the same as the Knives of Vengeance; they are only fueling Mot. They know that they are empowering Mot, Character. The Talons believe that the Furies have the power to stop Mot, and that if Mot destroyed the world, it would simply be resetting us back to the start. They believe Primal Earth deserves this. We need to go to the center of the Talons here in Primal Earth and destroy their figurative heart.

• I assume you know where this place is?

I do. Thanks, once more, to the information provided to us by Protean. He says that there are three Keres within the area, along with what he believes to be a 'Mother' Keres.

This can only be their main cavern of operations within Primal Earth. We must go in there and wipeout these Keres, Character, along with whoever this 'Mother' Keres is. It will be a difficult task, to be sure, but with you leading the charge, I believe it can be done.

Scirocco, Protean, and myself will go with you. Ajax is busy tending to Tub Ci and ensuring his safety.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You can't get in touch with Dream Doctor.

Mission Objective(s)

The cavern is full of the Knives of Vengeance, who made this their home. It's time to bring an end to them in Dark Astoria, once and for all.

• End the Talons of Vengeance in Dark Astoria
  • 3 Keres to defeat to destroy the Talons Nest
  • Defeat Mother Keres

You've destroyed the Mother Keres and the main base for the Talons of Vengeance!

Enemies

Talons of Vengeance

Notable NPCs

• Dream Doctor
• Scirocco
• Protean

Debriefing

Good to see you're alive, Character. I didn't think that was going to happen down there. What exactly happened when you vanished?

Hrm, a 'Mother Keres', you say? I'll have to look more into that to see just how many there are. It's possible you just delivered a major blow to the Talons as a whole, and not just the ones in Dark Astoria.

Montague Castanella has told me that there are several reports of the Talons of Vengeance retreating from various areas all over the world. They're most likely running scared now without this Mother Keres to guide them, Character. Now is the time to strike at Mot!

Finale: To Destroy a God

Briefing

This is it, Character. The ritual is nearly complete. Tub Ci and the Tsoo have agreed to help us in ending this, the Talons of Vengeance have been decimated, the Knives of Vengeance destroyed, and your immunity to Mot should still be present.

The Midnighters have confirmed that David Hazen's runes will work to empower our magical spell.

Are you ready, Character, to bring this to an end? It isn't going to be easy... not by a long shot. Mot is going to throw everything it has at us to stop our efforts, but we'll have you and the goddess Tielekku on our side, along with my entire team.

• I'm ready, let's finish this.

Excellent. We'll meet you at the ritual site. By the time you arrive, we should be nearly finished with summoning Tielekku.

If this is truly the final fight against Mot, you'll have to bring plenty of allies with you to see this to the end.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You can't get in touch with Dream Doctor.

Mission Objective(s)

You can see the ritual being finished up ahead. Powerful magic fills the air, fighting against the despair that is seeping from the graveyard.

• Banish Mot to the Spirit World
  • Approach the summoning site
  • Talk to Dream Doctor
  • 6 groups of Banished Pantheon to clear to get out

Tielekku, Ajax, and Tub Ci have been absorbed by Mot, making the creature more powerful than ever!

YoU... Character! Dream Doctor: Aha! It worked! Now... RUN!

Debriefing

Character, this is all my fault. I thought... I thought Tielekku would be powerful enough to resist Mot. It seems I was wrong; the creature directed all of its power in order to consume her.

I was wrong about why Mot twisted Tub Ci's mind. It didn't want Tielekku summoned to this existence for Tub Ci to attack her; it wanted Tielekku summoned to devour her and take her powers! Not only that, it now has Ajax and Tub Ci. Soon, it will absorb all of Tielekku's strength, gaining the ability of a goddess... all of Tub Ci's power... and Ajax's invulnerability, making its entire body impossible to kill! And now Protean is gone, on the loose to do what he wishes once again.

This... is all my fault, Character. I should have seen this coming. But we are not doomed. You and I are still alive, which means we still yet have a chance against Mot, but we must hurry.

Finale: The World's Final Gambit

Briefing

It's suiting that you would be the one, I assume once again, to be in charge of saving the world. If we're going to do this, we're going to need a literal army of our own to face off against Mot.

While you've been finding out how to destroy Mot, I've been spreading word of our plight across the world, telling the people that now is the time for us to fight, to put aside our differences. I assumed that if our plans all failed, our last attempt would be for all the powers of the world to throw themselves at Mot in the hopes of wiping it out. But now, we have a new plan.

I've instructed all those who I've talked to of a time and place to gather. I've requested those of a less... savory attitude to put their villainy aside, and those of a more righteous view to focus on the task at hand. We must all band together to fight the monstrous horde of Mot so that you can get to the Sentinel and destroy the creature from the inside.

• Do you know if anyone actually will help?

We'll see soon enough, Character. All we can do now is use the time that has been given to us. We will do what we can with whoever has shown up, but we'll have to hurry. Mot is beginning to consume entire cities, Character. We've received word that nearly the entire population of Chicago has been absorbed by Mot. We do not know what city could be next.

With the Sentinel on our side, Mot will have no major individual force to back it up, just a horde of monsters. You will have to carve a path through them and reach the Sentinel, while whoever else shows up provides enough of a distraction that Mot's attention is divided.

Let us go to the meeting place, Character, where the fate of the world shall be determined once and for all.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You can't get in touch with Dream Doctor.

Mission Objective(s)

You hear a loud commotion ahead. It looks like plenty of people have showed up to help defend the world in what may possibly be its final hour.

• Stop Mot from Devouring the World
  • Talk to Dream Doctor to enter the battle
  • 200 Banished Pantheon to defeat in order to weaken Mot
  • 7 groups of Ravagers to defeat at Mot's maw (directly north of the entrance, approximately half the map)
  • Talk to the Sentinel to go inside Mot
  • 3 runes of Mot to destroy inside of it
  • Speak with Tielekku inside of Mot's darkness
  • 6 runes of Mot to destroy inside of it
  • 4 guardians to defeat within Mot
  • Defeat the Embodiment of Mot
  • Speak with Tielekku to bind Mot

Mot has been stopped, the world saved from its destruction!

Debriefing

Character, we did it, you did it! Mot's power is trapped within that barrier. He still has his followers, but they'll pose little to no threat now that he has been sealed. The world owes you a huge thanks, Character. We'll never know what truly happened with you inside of Mot, but we all knew when we saw the barrier shoot up that the day was saved.

Everyone that played a role in this is starting to go back to where they came from, though I fear there is some trouble brewing with so many rival factions together...

It's something that I'll have to deal with myself, Character, you don't have to concern yourself. I do hope, however, that you and I will work together again in the future against a common enemy: Ouroboros. There is still much to do for the Coming Storm, and allies are sorely needed, especially with Protean abandoning the team. Scirocco, I believe, may yet be of use. He has returned with Ice Mistral to Grandville, but he is a changed man. The effects of what happened today are going to be felt for years to come, Character.

You've been flung into the depths of a god of death, fought monsters the likes that have never been seen before, travelled back through time... I believe you deserve a well-earned rest. I'll take care of cleaning things up from here on out, Character. We'll speak again when the time is right.

Personal Story

Souvenir

Dream Doctor's Personal Story

Dream Doctor returned to the Midnighter Club to discuss the next action to take with Montague Castanella. Mender Silos interrupted the conversation, demanding to see Dream Doctor in Ouroboros.

Dream Doctor travelled to Ouroboros, where he informed Mender Silos that he was not the one behind the temporal disturbances. He also revealed that he knew Mender Silos went back in time and tampered with the Dagger of Jocas, shifting it so the weapon would not destroy Rularuu. Silos admitted to this, saying that Rularuu will be needed to destroy the Coming Storm. Dream Doctor walked off, saying that humanity could handle the Coming Storm, and Ouroboros would come crashing down once Battalion was handled.

Unavoidable Fate

Briefing

Matters in Dark Astoria were settled. Dream Doctor was forced to reveal himself before the time was right. He could have used the ability to time travel through dreamspace, but he had grown to believe that time travel was too dangerous a tool to use; it was dangerous enough trying to use it with Character to go back to Cimerora. In fact, if time travel had not been utilized in the first place, the Cimerorans could have saved themselves!

It was time now to speak with Montague Castanella to figure out what their next move would be. The Coming Storm loomed over the world. The results found in the attack on Bloody Bay and Galaxy City all pointed to Battalion...

This is a non-combat, personal story mission. In this mission, you will assume the role of your contact. This is a solo mission.

• (Play Dream Doctor's Personal Story)

Dream Doctor would make his way to the Midnighter Club. Montague Castanella was a trusted ally, someone who revealed to him an immense secret regarding the Dagger of Jocas. It was, in fact, Montague Castanella who set Dream Doctor upon the path that he was currently on.

Mission Objective(s)

The Midnighter Club was still recovering from the Rulu-Shin's attack. Dream Doctor regretted that he was not present to defend the halls against the creatures.

• Speak with Montague Castanella

Dream Doctor has confronted Mender Silos and revealed his plans for the future.

Montague Castanella

Mender Silos: Dream Doctor, the letter writer. Clever, using dreamspace to time travel. Dream Doctor: Where are your lackeys, Silos? Mender Silos: They're away on business. This is between you and I. Mender Silos: Why, Dream Doctor? Why have you been tampering with the fabric of time? Dream Doctor: How DARE you accuse me of such things. I KNOW what you've done, Silos! Dream Doctor: I stabbed Rularuu with the dagger of Jocas, and sealed the creature in the Shadow Shard. Dream Doctor: But the dagger was supposed to DESTROY Rularuu. Montague Castanella told me the dagger had been altered by time travel... YOU were the one who went back in time and stopped me from destroying Rularuu! WHY! Mender Silos: I've done the calculations. The only way for humanity to survive the Coming Storm is to use Rularuu. Dream Doctor: You're wrong, Silos. I have faith in humanity, that we CAN defeat the Coming Storm, Rularuu... Dream Doctor: ... And Ouroboros. The next time I am here, Silos, it will be to crash this abomination into the sea! Dream Doctor... you were never my enemy, it seems. I truly hope the fates I have seen for you can be avoided...

Truth Teller You played through Dream Doctor's personal story, witnessing the event where Dream Doctor confronted Mender Silos and revealed why he harbors such a large hatred for Ouroboros.
