MagickDream (Ashley, b. 1988) is a multifaceted creative: a content creator, illustrator, writer, voice actor, and podcast host whose passion for storytelling and art has shaped their journey from childhood to today.

They have been drawing since the moment they could hold a crayon, turning a lifelong love of illustration into a professional pursuit. Under the name MagickDream—a title first born from their parents’ website in 2006—they began offering custom emotes and graphics for Twitch and Discord creators. Their anime-inspired style, with occasional turns toward realism and fantasy, has become a hallmark of their work. They’ve collaborated with streamers such as PoisonHearrt and WretchPlaysGames, bringing visions to life with energy, precision, and care.

Their illustrations have also been published in print, featured in both the original and revised editions of their father’s book Sea Land Sky: A Dragon Magick Grimoire. The revised edition includes one of their most recent works, while the first edition contains artwork they created as a teenager—marking their growth and evolution as an artist across decades.

As a voice actor, MagickDream thrives on performance and storytelling. They love experimenting with accents—their Texan roots and playful Irish lilt being among their favorites—and see every role as both a performance and a narrative to embody. Their proudest role to date was voicing Circus Baby in Valox’s Five Nights at Freddy’s analogue horror project, a performance that reached wide audiences and even earned a reaction from popular YouTuber Dawko.

On Twitch, where they have been streaming since 2018, they have cultivated a space where honesty, humor, and community thrive. Their streams—often centered around horror games like Dead by Daylight—shift seamlessly between laid-back conversation and chaotic, high-energy “gremlin” moments. They treasure the chance to share stories, connect with people, and create meaningful conversations with their audience. They are a proud Streamloots Partner, and also an Affiliate with Dixper and Golden Day Coffee, which have expanded the interactive possibilities of their streams.

MagickDream is also the co-host of a podcast, which they share with their partner of more than 14 years, Azazel9974. Together, the pair create not only content but shared experiences: Azazel works as lights-and-sound tech for MagickDream’s streams, and the two often collaborate creatively as he begins his own streaming journey. Their little family also includes Eevee, their beloved Labrador mix, who chose her own name after the pair tried countless others.

Beyond streaming and podcasting, MagickDream is a passionate writer, working on fanfiction while building original worlds and stories of their own. Storytelling is at the heart of everything they create, whether through their art, their voice, their writing, or their presence online.

Their life has also been marked by resilience. They are open about being a survivor of childhood abuse and living with PTSD, clinical depression, and borderline personality disorder. They are also the parent of an angel baby, their son Kaeden, who passed shortly after birth in 2010. These experiences have shaped their outlook, their art, and their connection with their community, where they emphasize compassion, authenticity, and encouragement.

Through it all, MagickDream lives by a message they share with their community at the end of every stream:
“To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.”
