Posting my idea for the RP here, particularly how the big bad came to be. Feel free to ignore it if it doesn't suit your liking.

[hider=Plot]
Once upon a time, there was a certain bedridden girl in the town. Always sick ever since she was born, this girl had no friends and her parents were too busy working and arguing with each other that they rarely visited her in the hospital. She was not lonely though, as the nurses kept giving her books to read. She particularly loved fantasy books, and she always imagined herself being in an adventure in a fantasy world far away from her life now.

One day, she finally died, but her soul was not sent to the afterlife. It was brought to Dreamland, a place where the dreams, wishes, and fantasies of humans gathered. She was welcomed there like other children who had perished before their time in an unhappy state.

For a while, she was happy there, as her dream of having an adventure every day was finally fulfilled. But eventually, as she conversed with the other children who were there, who told her their unhappy lives in the real world, a certain resolve settled inside her heart.

The resolve to share this utopia for everyone, including those living in the real world.

And so she became the most powerful magician in Dreamworld, thanks to her abnormally strong love for the fantastical and her hatred for the real world. She eventually overthrew the Queen who governed the world. However, some of the Queen's loyal servants managed to escape to the real world, bringing with them Dream Seeds that would grant people in the real world ability to use magic as well. And she needed those Dream Seeds for her world unification ritual. Too bad her magic was spent after fighting the Queen, and so she had to send her loyal followers instead to the real world to hunt for the seeds.
