Spoiler:
What does the man in the Dream Invasion look like exactly. Do we have a better description of him in Book 2 or 3?

Can anyone describe them please? (with a SPOILER tag)

The player's aren't meant to interact with the figure or be aware of who it actually is, it's meant to be off putting and unsettling.

Yeah I get that, be nice to have a picture to show them since I'm sure they will see it eventually.

There are no illustrations of the dream invader, since the exact appearance should vary from dream to dream, but if you want greater details...

Spoiler:
...the mask itself should look like the horned head and face of a saumen-kar, while the "fine coat" should be more of a "generic" aristocrat's coat. The style and color and shape of the coat can and should change from dream to dream and from person to person, but the saumen-kar mask should be the constant. And as mentioned in the sidebar, you should adjust the dreams as needed to match the dreaming PC's backstory and personality.

The important thing is that you keep the identity of the dream invader secret. Book 3 covers how that revelation plays out, and I'm hesitant to reveal that here for fear of spoilers until the book's out... but rest assured it'll all be fine if you describe the mask as having white fur and horns (showing the PCs a picture of a saumen-kar would potentially spoil things too much, since those elements of this Adventure Path are already out there in other products that some players may have read).

Ah ok, that makes it easier, I'm new to Golarion so wasn't sure what that looked like. Now I have a better picture in my head (with a quick Google search). Thanks James!
