Short/Long Bio:
A King who was an offspring of Zeus who bore many children in the day of Ancient Greece. He was loved both by the Moon and in his Dreams, with Endymion carrying the favor of two Gods that was Selene and Hypnos, enchanted by his beauty. There was a mutual affection between the King and his two divine companions, with struck an agreement that placed the demigod was under a beautiful enchantment that wove into his flesh as magic imbued him with immortality and protection granted from the Goddess of Moon and God of Sleep. A peaceful slumber that would protect him indefinitely underneath the curtain of stars and dreams as the two Gods admired their lover's beauty. Exploring the vast realms that the two Gods created in his dreams as he enjoyed them with the two, creating undiscovered worlds that Hypnos made for him to explore as Selene accompanied him on his discoveries. It was all meant to be forever...
Until the resounding end of an era- a conclusion that wiped the power of the gods off the table as their creations began to fade away, withering and disappearing until being entirely forgotten or being saved as the myths and legends in stories. The two Gods who were the embodiments of concepts, while fearful of the new age that was on the horizon knew that they would still live on with their lover. A cycle of the moon that touched down a kissed the sleeping King while the dreams continued to build an endless adventure within himself that would stay even as the morning sun peered over the edge of the world.
Eventually, Selene and Hypnos entered their own mysterious slumber, while their machinations continued on as the Moon caressed the demigod in his sleep with the moonlight passing him. His dreams entertaining him with the miracles that worked in his imagination, but like many of the creations of the Gods created withered away in time- the magic that held the King in his eternal slumber began to slip away. The Titanian Goddess weave survived the test of time that held his body together while the blanket of dreams over his eyes slipped away. Awakening him to the new world after a millennium of divine magic deteriorating without the assistance of the Creators who made it in the first place.
His own awakening that came a millennium too early, was spent exploring the world that he was a part of while he waited for his two companions to return if they ever did. Enjoying the moon's welcoming light and the pull of sleep's embrace as a reminder to the old life that was once his, the enchantment of the Moon Goddess Selene held onto those many decades along with his own fortitude as a demigod that allowed him to live through the age. Long enough to feel the arousal and pull of something inside him that tempted him back for a home where he yearned for at times while he was abroad. Taking a plane back, he questioned the feeling inside of him if it was the same feeling he had many times before or was it something entirely else that burned within him and beckoned...
Form of Witchcraft:
Old Magic and Sigil Magic mostly, but he'll never use Blood Magic unless requested by his two Gods
Form of Sacrifice:
He's capable of using all the types of sacrifices but favors the Sentimental and Material sacrifice styles
Abilities/Rituals:
Ethereal Beauty: A natural ability that Endymion had which symbolizes the beauty he had which captivated not one but two different gods. Namely Selene and Hypnos, who were charmed by him during his peaceful slumber underneath the stars which captured their attention on him. The ability mystical in a sense that charms people into admiring his appearance, when sleeping the effect of his charm is increased with his peaceful visage.
Eternal Rest of the Empyreal King: The enchantment that the two Gods Selene and Hypnos placed on Endymion, and the most famous aspect of his legend. It is a piece of old magic beyond what is capable of witches that granted him the gift of immortality, endless youth, and an eternal, deep, dream-blessed sleep. Yet the ritual has errored over the centuries of the gods' absence within the world, bits and pieces of the woven tapestry that held Endymion in his eternal rest that eventually woke him with lingering remanents of the spell cast on him. Leaving his immortality intact but as a side effect, he is much more suspectable to rituals that place him to sleep from Hypnos blessing on him like originally. However, so long as he is sleeping, the true power of this ritual is achieved once more that protects Endymion from outside harm while in the realm of dreams.
Pathfinder of the Stars: A simple ritual that Ender is able to use that tells him where he is in the world, by quickly surveying the sky in a matter of moments to determine his position and additionally preventing him from losing his way as well. Granting its travelers a safe trip under its skies, allowing travelers to move better when they are underneath the night sky exposed. It is a useful ritual but requires innate knowledge of the geography and astrology to use the information given by this ritual to determine one's position. This ritual requires no sacrifice other than a simple prayer to work
Moon's Gaze: Another simple ritual that grants protection while traveling underneath the stars and night skies, it wards off minor mundane and magical threats while the position of the Moon is favorable. Lighting the way forward for all travelers with moonlight to their desired destination in hope of a safe journey. Any sacrifice is favorable to using this ritual and even if none is used, a less potent version will still take effect.
Trapped Moonlight Sigil: A simplistic sigil that when placed out into the light of the moon is absorbed into it and can then be used for a variety of purposes such as lighting for example. If placed on a weapon, it will fill up with silvery energy where it will be able to inflict light burns on targets when it is fully charged. In a more explosive use, the trapped energy can also be released at once causing a small explosion of energy to detonate upon hard contact. Failure to draw a half-crescent properly will result in this spell to not work and in rare cases explode if it somehow haphazardly stores energy.
Ward of Hypnos Sigil: A sigil designed to ward off bad dreams and negative energy when sleeping to encourage more pleasant fantasies, blocking out negative magical effects that target the dreamer's night of rest. If the sigil is drawn wrong, the sleeper's dream are muddled and maybe even channel in negative energy for nightmares instead of preventing it.
Dreamer's Forge: A ritual of significant power provided that the sacrifice to fuel it is capable of achieving the desired effects, this ritual has the ability to promote vivid dreams that the caster desires. The only limitations of what this ritual is able to do is the fuel to determine its potency, the fact that the entire dream must be positive overall, and that the sleeper is ontop of the area where the ritual is drawn. The most basic version of this spell requires hoppies and a few inscenses to work but becomes more complex the depending on what the ritual is trying to achieve.
Preferred Deity:
Selene and Hypnos
Zeus

Hypnos prefers to use what form is most comfortable with his human companions whehter it be a human, animal, or whatever within reason of course but most time he appears as a young human. It is a form that he is most familiar with since the preference for a human form from many of his past expirences doing this. Within the realm of dreams, he can take on any form that he wants or is suitable for him but he rarely does outside of his own company for his own reasons. Even his true form he keeps away from the sight of other Gods with the exception of his closer siblings in the realm of darkness like Thanatos or Mother herself which would be disrespectful to not show in that case.
Waking up ironically as the God of Sleep, despite his laziness, his reason is for such is thing is because sleep is meant to be enjoyed with someone else, even ask the King of Gods if he even admits that... Other than that, he will be quick to go back to sleep but perhaps not as long like this slumber was.
The God of Sleep, was mentioned in the old text and legends with few qualities that could describe the mysterious figure that he was. Preferring to remain out of the many troubles of Gods with a few exceptions, his acquaintances liked to call him a 'painless God' who didn't want to contribute into the strife among the divines. He liked to spend his time with his favored company, mortals, who had the creativity that he believed to surpass the Gods themselves who had stubborn and headstrong mentalities. Admiring how diverse they were not only in the waking world but in the realm of dreams as well, taking on the vividness and whimsical qualities they had for himself but delegated the other qualities to his children. He didn't like exerting his full power, gently lulling his dreamers to their desired place far away from their troubles with a gentle touch he liked to have. Even his delicate touch was still able to make the King of Gods fall asleep peacefully not only once but twice without a struggle and the last one unaware of the act. Being far from being either the most responsible or honorable god to exist which was his own flaws as a God, he often goes underestimated despite his descendance from Nyx from not only his antics but major participation in the divine realm. His demeanor hasn't changed from the gentle and playful visage that he always had since old times but his curiosity has peaked with this new age coming. The sea of dreams unattended in the millions and billions that is made out of so many different people that he didn't know what to do.
His first two children was Morpheus who harbored their image so that he could travel in their dreams in their form and then Phantasos who represented the creations that their own mind could create both within their dreams and in reality. Of course, mortals were not perfect if even the Gods had their flaws and thus Phobetor was created for their fears to be realized so that it can be conquered or else they would fall victims to them.

Dreamers. Whether they are naive or ambitious, it does not matter to him as he hope they strive to achieve their goals for themselves. He'll accept giving the occasional supportive push but he isn't willing to do all the work for a person without proving themselves to be able to do what they intend to do. In the end, what he wants his followers to have is not only loyalty to themselves and their dreams that they have so they always strive for them.
Lethe, Hades
