I found this. It seemed interesting, as it's a character created by Chapman that I don't particularly remember. Things like that are quite compelling.

Description of Fighters Gimmick or Personality: Dream is portrayed by both Darren and Daniel. The two share a distinct bond that is mysterious in its nature. Darren knows what Daniel thinks and vice versa. Daniel is the quiet one of the two, while Darren has the dominant personality. Neither are opposed to violence, but as Dream they see things differently than normal people.

Fighters Appearance: Daniel is more reserved and contemplative in appearance with starch white hair and black eyes, while Darren has black hair and white eyes looking much more violent. Muscular for their small frames, the two are rather tall yet not fierce in appearance.

Fighters Background: Darren and Daniel Mitchell were born on the same day to the same mother in the same city. They were twins, but very different twins born to a single mother forced to work night clubs in East St. Louis. With unique personalities, they remained protective of each other, but fate directed them. Often when they would sleep they would hear gunshots outside, and feel the pain of each death.

Their dreams were vivid, and connected them to the victims in the world. Their reality came in their sleep. While Daniel reacted with anger and violence, Darren reflected upon the strange occurrence and connection they shared with each other and the souls of others. Daniel was the more brash of the two, and it was he who took care of Darren. Darren, a child who spoke no words until he his 12th birthday, was not weak by any means. Although Daniel was always fighting, trying to silence the noise, Darren learned to control the dreams, and make the night his reality.

Darren was the popular one, social, and got along well with the right kids in the private catholic school. Their mother made enough money to send them there, and give them some escape from the grim city. Daniel merely relied on Darren, and was seen as mysterious in school. Always double dating with Darren, the two were inseparable and Daniel too was popular in a much more subdued way.

At night, in the dreams, Daniel was in charge as Darren only listened. Darren was always more helpless in controlling the dreams, which caused him to take charge in reality. Daniel was constantly reflective, but as the two grew older they grew wiser. They both realized that they must control their fates, and worked hard, as they grew cold to the world around them in East St. Louis.

Now, they come to theAsylum with the goal of ending the pain they feel from the organization as a whole. They need to do something, to stop the pain, and end the blind sleep. To wake up each and every member and show them that what they had inside the cage, is not reality. It is merely a dream…

Fighters Career History: Fought randomly in East St. Louis in various street brawls, always protecting each other.

IN CHARACTER –

Personally for me, Ike Chapman, theAsylum has always been the only place I truly aspired to enter. I have participated in other feds, and I enjoy my time there, but theAsylum was always the place I wanted to be. My favorite writers and characters were there. M.U.D., Token Weed, Pete Borst, theInmate, Angel Dalton, and later characters like Shadowfire, Rave Caprino and Milo Samus only made me want in more.

I admire the hard work, and I feel that I have a story to tell. One that fits theAsylum. If things don’t work out, they don’t work out, but regardless theAsylum is truly a unique place. The tone and the aspects that each character brings are all self contained and they cannot be found anywhere else. It is truly my dream to work with Steve Dunphy one day, I am the number one M.U.D. mark, and theAsylum is a place I feel I can truly produce.

Also a corny answer would be that my character is "Dream" and it is my dream to be in theAsylum. Okay I am a dork.

Sample of the Concept for DREAM:

We are always together. We dream the same dreams. We know the same things. We speak with the same voice. It is time for theAsylum to awaken. To escape the nightmare and to give us our peace. We do not fight together, we fight as one. We are one. We are Dream.

I am Darren Mitchell. I am here to force those in theAsylum to see what they are blind to. The deception and pain they cause their souls. The anger, frustration, and greed that fuels their lives. I am here to end theAsylum’s pain… I am Darren, I am Dream.

I am Daniel Mitchell. I am here to lead theAsylum to their own salvation. To save them from the evil that lays within. To protect them as they sleep, as I drift to a new reality. I only want the pain to end, and the healing to begin… I am Daniel, I am Dream.
