A reanimated corpse that resides within the ruins of a long lost civilization. They make no noise, only the shuffling of their feet can be heard and the dragging cowl of entrails behind them. Attacking with enlarged, clawed hands Dream Walkers leave none alive. Due to people constantly trying to explore where they (Dream Walkers) 'live', they have developed an ability to distort electric fields causing after images of themselves to appear even when not in the same room.
Part of a series of creatures and characters from a very post-post-post-apocalyptic setting I came up with a few years ago in college. The overall theme was that centuries upon centuries after nuclear war tore Earth apart, civilization began building again but much of the environment became mutated due to radioactivity.
You get things such as what used to be Komodo Dragons far in the past that are now bipedal Tyrannosaurid-type 'dragons' (they aren't quite dinosaurs so the term 'dragon' was coined for them). There are also supernatural elements to the world such as the Dream Walkers that are contained to a specific location in the world.
I'll make a compilation post eventually on the world and include some old drawings I did for the creatures and some characters.
