With less than 5 hours until Art Fight starts, I should probably share my profile!
(also: pausing the Nexomon fusions until the end of the July, I’ll do the last 3 planned ones in August)

Taru is an underground information broker that operates under several aliases, her most notorious being “Dreameater”. So little information on her was available prior to the incident on Dressrosa that many believed her to be a sort of bogeyman. Now, however, she’s been credited for orchestrating several large events, earning her a very large bounty and many enemies.
Unknown to the public, Taru’s true name is Reiya Redstart, daughter of Marine Vice Admiral Hubert Redstart and sister to Rear Admiral Santi Redstart. There was an incident in Taru’s childhood where she was kidnapped and held for ransom by the Black Skull Pirates and the time spent with them inspired her to later defect from the Marines as an adult. She’s been secretly hunted by the Navy ever since.
(abilities under the cut)
Skills:
- Has eaten the Haunt Haunt Devil Fruit
- Has high Observation haki
- Is a formidable underground information broker. Has a myriad of connections and secrets pertaining to prominent figures across the seas.
- Information network includes a small flock of crows that act as couriers between agents and herself. They’re also transport if needed.
Haunt-Haunt Fruit
This fruit gives the ability to physically enter and manipulate a person’s subconscious. Due to the nature of it, little is known about its full capability. Notable drawbacks are being unable to Haunt individuals with high willpower or Armament haki, and being “knocked out” of someone by a large enough shock.
Haunt - Taru can phase into someone’s subconscious and remain there undetected. While Haunting, she can sense everything the target is sensing.
Ghost Sighting - While Haunting, she can cause the target to see and interact with an illusion conjured from their subconscious. Only work on a small scale.
Dead Sleep - If Taru or anything on the user’s person (such as her scythe) phases through a target, their consciousness can be turned off and they fall asleep. Effectiveness depends on target’s willpower.
Dreamscape - When a target is sleeping, the she can Haunt them and then enter their dreams. Here, she can look through their memories and conjure up any images or sensations from these for the target.
Past Ghosts - Taru can bring up the target’s memories with crystal clear accuracy, often revealing details that the target themselves can’t fully remember when conscious.
Faded Memories
She can “store” certain information in a person’s subconscious. The individual themselves may not be aware of the information, but with time, certain memories can seem real and be actively recalled. This can plant false memories and “sleeper agents”.
Using this same method, she can also enter her own subconscious while asleep but can only control a small portion of it. It normally takes the shape of a haunted house and inside she stores and recollects information that she wouldn’t regularly be able to recall while conscious.
