He sensed the power emanating from the glowing orb, could near taste it, as in a sense he meant to devour the thing. Unlike the powerful maren, he must gather energy in order to survive and keep from fading out of the dreamscapes. In part, his thieving tendencies rose out of necessity, but also pleasure.
The two dim-witted maren noticed the dreamer and started to advance on her. To them, she posed as simple a target as the ferris wheel or other objects. These two barely had a shape other than shadow, enormous hands, and big, stupid red eyes. Their ghosty bodies cast an enormous shadow as they rose behind her.
"Well, perhaps your Ideya can help with your friends there," he said, then gestured for her to glance behind.

Viel eyed the yellow orb with the pleasure of a connoisuer and restrained himself from plucking it out of her hands and devouring it, so to speak. Ideya held powerful attraction for him. Of course, the girl snatched it back right away. Quite a suspicious little thing. She needed distraction.
He eyed the two creatures pulled through a portal. They needed better prey than to blindly attack the fair rides. He sent a tendril of power through the two creatures, drawing them back to him slowly, slowly. He could lure the lowest class maren like this, at least.
Now to keep her put until they got closer. "Wherever did you come by that? Did someone give it to you.. did you steal it?"

Viel crossed his arms and glared at the girl's blank face. Oh how he wanted it to light up with fear, but he doubted the easiness of that somehow. His eyes narrowed, the golden one glinting, as he caught sight of something concealed behind the girl's back. "Ah, what do you have there." He advanced with little threat to his stance. For now. At the moment, curiosity ruled him. Besides, he never would have expected an Ideya from her.
"Come now, it's polite to share." One step put him rather close to the girl.

Viel fell, head-first, out of a dreamscape and landed, face first, on a seat atop the ferris wheel.
Maren could be so particular with 'sharing.' However, Viel liked to steal, not share.
The elegant, humanoid creature righted himself and brushed off the solemn coattails of his suit. A contradiction in terms of feature and laziness of gender caught people offguard when they met him. Shimmering blue locks dripped into a half-blind, gilded eye, a scar spreading like a star around the eyelids. The other eye, plain black, held a cold and malicious contempt and sly amusement for the dreamscapes it viewed.
The lips, full and disconcertingly black, pearled up in a bored little smile. This sort of dreamscape had little promise, but perhaps he might steal 'something' of interest. When the ferris wheel made its full turn, he hopped off, coat-tails flying, then brushed off his outfit as though the cheery circus motif had contaminated it.
"The gaudy emptiness has its charm?" he said without conviction.
Even the scents curdled his nose. Here the overpowering grease and overt sugar, there the hideous odor of rain mixed with pavement. The dull skies did make for a better look, he thought.
Some might confuse his genderless look and the maren who inhabited dreamscapes, though he looked decidedly humanoid. However, his true status was something like an inverted muse. Nor did he get along with Maren overtly, since he liked teasing dreamers with rampant nightmares.
"If only I had a little human to scare off amusement parks forever."
Sing-song, and cruel, though he sensed no humans about. For now he'd amuse his curiosity. Perhaps a dreamer would arrive latter.

Viel rounded a corner to see an amusing situation. Several low-class maren seemed to be having their fun with another of their kind, while an indeterminate creature watched. A soft, low chuckle came from the muse's throat. He tugged at his caravat and then raised his cane to poke a hole in the dreamscape. Hopefully something else of amusement would come through and bother the two of them. Meanwhile he stood in sight, yawning, pretending boredom when he actually felt interested in the scene.
"Well look at that.." He noticed the cat just as a few glowing eyed, long-clawed creatures crawled out of the rift he made. "Hm, you two, I'd watch out for these if I were you." He pointed his cane with feigned innocence--he hadn't opened the rift, after all. No, not him.

The ensuing fight made Viel yawn, one hand covering his mouth with exaggerated boredom. The two creatures he summoned seemed more interested in poking at rides than attacking. His pose and gaze sharpened when he noticed the appearance of more creatures. How did an abandoned dreamscape fill so quickly. He contemplated stepping off for the darker 'scapes when someone bumped into him from behind.
"You're.. sorry?" he couldn't help saying. "You should be, hm?" The left corner of his lip inclined, a look too wicked and sly to be called smile. "What's a dreamer doing here, I wonder." Despite his cold manner, he decided to stay here based on this single event. Perhaps he might steal a precious memory to wear around his neck or else twist terror around this gaudy carnival.
"You ought to be careful. Maren aren't forgiving creatures. Whereas I, a muse, can accept your apology. My name is Viel.. what is yours? I'm sure it's not 'Sor..ry."

Any of you guys live near a GameStop? Well, pretty much all stores in my area (and probably others) got a ton of free poster packs. One of the posters in there is the NiGHTS cover pic though the rest of them are mostly games for 360 and ps3 with one little Mario one in there. Either way, these posters are free so.. go to other gamestops (no one around here likes NiGHTS much, anyway) and harass the little associates for your free stuff. This would only be in the US and Canada mostly.. though some other stores have to be getting these.
(Btw I miss you guys x_X no internet sucks)

I always saw NiGHTS as both.. easy when I'm fairly androgynous too. I think some people see NiGHTS in terms of what they're attracted to, and 'he' is easier for some people to use when a person is indetermined or both, but I don't think a femme voice will bother me. Now, if that voice actor sucks into the ground, that'll bother me.

I made the mistake of trying to explain the game to one kid's father. It horrified him even more. -__-; People are so closed minded these days. I actually had one person buy it three days ago without any gay comments or someone going 'don't you want racing or something?' while looking at the game like it's gay porn. It got to the point that.. an actual gay guy.. thought the game looked sissy ;-; and wouldn't get it.

We had trouble selling it at my Gamestop too.. then, a few kids wanted to buy it, but their parent/brother/group of friends mocked them for buying a 'gay' game.

I don't have a particular dreamscape. Mine are rather varied for one setting, but I do see repetive setting themes. Forests are one, especially when it's difficult to exit the forest. Basements, though more common during my childhood, basic evil or ruined settings pop up a lot. Oceans, unfortunately, as that's always a treacherous and unpredictable dreamscape. My favorite one is a library that has access to all realms and all things. If I could keep one and repeat it more often, it would be that one.

I had one Reala dream ever. First, we were in a normal car driving around, and it wasn't Reala there, just a regular guy. Then, the scene switched to a skyscene and he was driving an evil sleigh. Yep, with glowing red lights. JOD Reala as well. I think he cackled wickedly. There wasn't much else though.

Note. These are all my own opinions not for argument, just notation.
It's easy for a 'how to make a fanmaren' guide to become 'how to make a mary sue' in that, while you can easily make up a list, a lot of it will end up as cliches. Then others will take these cliches and blurr them further! A creation is best as it comes to you naturally Of course, I have noticed a group of these said cliches and some of em aren't bad.
Wild design/clothing- subtitled
(another way to distinguish my chara from NiGHTS.) Fanmaren tend to have crazy costume design that may or may not include odd body structure.
Maren version of YOU- (MaRY Sue) This is not my favorite trend. On a side note, I did name my creature Lore, an abbreviated version of Loren, so I plead the fifth there. When it comes to personality traits and content though, it's more creative to invent or dream a fully dimensional chara with its own soul.
Take NiGHTS and add paint-- Tride and true recolours. You find them in Sonic and NiGHTS with equal frequency. Honestly, I wonder what the point is here. There's a thousand ways to vary even the usual set of round face no nose, so that's no excuse. It's even more confusing in Sonic, where one can create any unique creature.
Take Jackle, Reala, Puffy and add paint (see above)
Elaborate and symbolic name- Not all maren have these, unless one considers Puffy or Clawz poetic. It's all the rage with fan maren though.
ALL CAPS EXCEPT FOR THE i: Hm, well, NiGHTS has this configuration, but the other maren don't. I kinda like playing with lower case vowels and upper consonants, but this is real common.
Humaren configuration: Most fan marens resemble the Jackle-NiGHTS-Reala form (that is, humanoidish body shape and round head.) Nothing wrong with this.
No nose- Purgy aside most of em seem to lack a nose. I don't think it's a necessary design to a fan maren, but again it's common and does distinguish your critter.
I would suggest reading all about these trends and then tossing them when creating your own chara. S'what I think anyways

I really like it because it breaks established molds while keeping enough of the Maren design to be recognized as such. I basically love: ears, eyes (especially that little line on either side, uniquifies that anime style) and the hair. Now I know so many fan maren have the basic set appearance, but in my eyes it shouldn't be limited to a nazi specific set.
Criticism now: The design appears rather busy to me. Multitudes of patterns and appendages and motifs make him look quite interesting, but leaving two or three of them could look even better, balanced as well as creative.

I'm torn between two, intelligence and courage (red/blue). What seems like bragging is in fact a weakness.. that which is courageous within me often wins in bad ways against intelligence, or vice versa. The fact that I'm a strong person makes me disregard the most intelligent path, whereas occasionally I use logic to out myself of a fearful situation. Both can be rather useful traits but disjointed when combined. Ah, well.
Purity would be very, very, very far away from me.
Wisdom.. eh. In professional situations, yes, close. In personal ones, not so much.
Whereas hope is whimsy with me, too dangerous to trust, yet I'd put it closer than the other two n.n Wish I could draw a pic like Purg's to illustrate.
