While all changelings are capable to some extent of entering and manipulating a sleeper’s dreams, the Contracts of Dream are a particularly potent means of doing so. They grant the changeling more power in the dreamscape, allowing her to control and direct a sleeper’s dreams, and also to manipulate the nature of dreams themselves without means of a pledge. They may also grant some insight into the dreamlike nature of the Hedge. (For more on dreamshaping without Contracts, see p. 190.)
