The Sleep Paralysis Demon exists in simultaneously in the ethereal plane and its victim's mind. When viewed from the ethereal plane, it appears as a tall, slender shadow, looming at the foot of its victim's bed. Imagine an Enderman from Minecraft. In its victim's subconscious, it assumes the form of its victim, but with pointed teeth and piercing, lidless eyes.
When you have an absent player you might consider subjecting your party to this monster. It locks its victim into a coma, and the only way to defeat it is to sleep next to the victim and join the dreaming. I've always wanted to run a subconscious adventure, so this is me pushing in that direction. Is there any interest in a little adventure outline for this The Sleep Paralysis Demon? I hope so!
