Biography
There are two parts of Desecrated Dreams's story, the life of Desirae, and the life of Jill. Desirae was a hero in another universe. Her powers awakened when her adopted sister was assaulted by a gang of devil worshipers. Desirae used her powers to take her sister's nightmares away, sparing the girl from reliving her assault. After that moment, Jill's life was spent as a vigilante, using her shadowy powers to punish the wicked. Eventually, she came to realize that vigilantism had no mercy for the victims it created in the supposedly wicked. As such, she quit vigilante activity and became a hero in her own right for a few years, before an evil power shattered her universe. Somehow, she survived, though it is unclear exactly how.
Jill was born in Millennium City, with an odd sense that she had lived this life before. At sixteen, she encountered a strange entity, much like herself, who showed her a previous life, which had ended all to soon in a bloody orgy of violence. The entity that she encountered explained Desirae's life and mistakes and explained that to avoid the fate Jill would have suffered, a bargain was struck between the two in an alternate timeline. The two shared a single soul and very specific soul memories of important events in their lives. Memories of the fate that had befallen Jill in the other lifetime nearly drove her insane, but she rose to the challenge to save the life of her friend, Katie, who would become her sister by marriage.
Jill always had problems sleeping, and wasn't at all surprised when it was revealed that she drew her magic from the plane of Nightmare, or the Wailing City. (The place has many different names.) She's always had nightmares and interruptions of her sleep cycle, but since her powers manifested, it has gotten worse. In an attempt to stabilize her powers, she turned to a mysterious Artificer who offered to call in a favor for Jill. With the Artificer's help, Jill added biomagical and technomagical abilities, to prevent her from drawing too much power from the Wailing City at once, a move that could rob her of her sanity.
Now, though not as strong magically, she is able to protect the innocent without worrying about becoming a monster herself.
Powers and Skills
Desecrated Dreams's powers are pretty nuanced and difficult to understand, if several points are not kept in mind.
1.Magic: The short explanation is that she pulls extradimensional magic from the plane of Nightmare, which she knows by multiple names (The Burning City, The Wailing City, etc.) She can also use other sources of power if necessary, typically drawing on negative emotions such as fear and hatred. Another source of power is the Near-plane of Shadow, a repository of psychic and magical refuse. In some places, drawing on alternate sources of power may proven an advantage, if one of another is blocked.
2. Psionics: A natural result of her connection with the Nightmare is a sensitivity to certain psychic impressions and, with practice, the ability to modify some of those impressions. Generally, her powers are telepathically based, she is able to immobilize and disorient her foes through purely psionic means. Typically, she inflicts vertigo or sensory overload on her opponents. She has been known to use limited forms of mind control on especially tough foes, but will be the first to admit that it is not her specialty.

Comment Wall
"Jill is constantly impressing me. It isn't any secret that I find her bright, beautiful, and a blast to hang around with. The shadows are part of who she is, but there is something unusually gorgeous about that. The union of light and dark; the unique blend of balance and harmony. Or at least that is how I see her." ~ Limerick
"It has been awhile since I've had time to hang out with DD, but we've had some fun times. Sure she can feel a little morbid at times, but she can also have this wonderful sense of humor if you give her the chance." ~ Vixen
"Jill's good people. I hope in time we can be friends again. I always looked to her for advice. If Jill says you're a friend, then you've got someone unforgettable having your back. There aren't people like her around anymore, that's for sure." ~ Stitch
