In the Marvel Comics'universe, the Dreaming Celestial is a Renegade member of the race of god-like Celestials. During the Second Celestial Host, The Dreaming Celestial committed a crime "against life itself" and was exiled by his brethren. His spirit was ripped from his body and placed in a device known as "The Vial." A fraction of the Celestial's soul was used to make a key that could lock the Vial. As for the body it was sealed under the Diablo Mountains in Colorado. For many years The Celestial slept and then one day the Deviant Priestlord Ghaur remade the key and drank the essence of the Dreaming Celestial thus giving the Priestlord the height and power of a Celestial. Soon enough The Dreaming Celestial took advantage of this rare opportunity and began mentally controlling Ghaur so that he would free The Dreamer from his never-ending sleep. However an intervention by The Avengers and Eternals led to the plan's downfall and the Vial was sealed once more. After the events of Heroes Reborn The Dreaming Celestial found a loophole out of his eternal prison and a gateway into the Heroes Reborn Universe. The Dreaming Celestial learned that one of his accursed star-spawned kin was the guardian of this Pocket Universe and deciding the only way out of that universe was through her. Her meaning the Celestial known as Ashema. The Dreaming Celestial quickly began planning her demise but was soon opposed by Dr. Doom, Lancer, Technarx and several other heroes. Eventually The Dreaming Celestial captured Ashema and escaped to our Universe where he was finally thwarted by Doom and The Fantastic Four. In an alternate future The Dreaming Celestial awoke and turned the world-devourer Galactus into a weapon that would consume the entire Universe so that The Dreamer would become the Nucleas and Founder of a new, darker reality. However The Fantastic Four, Thor, Iron Man and Shi'ar were able to thwart his plans and cause Galactus to consume the Renegade.

The archnemeses of the Celestials are the Watchers.
During the Second Celestial Host, The DreamingCelestial committed a crime "against life itself" and was exiled by his brethren.
As a member of the Fourth Host of the Celestials, Nezarr appeared in the Soviet Union and was targeted by an atomic missile directed by General Greshkov.
The DreamingCelestial, who is also known as the Great Renegade, is a member of the enigmatic, virtually all-powerful extraterrestrial race known as the Celestials, who have conducted genetic experimentation with the dominant races of many planets, including Earth.
Possibly the DreamingCelestial is the most powerful individual member of the Second Host, although it seems highly unlikely that his power exceeds that of such Celestials as Exitar, who dwarfs even Arishem in size and might.
The priesthood of Earth's Deviants, a genetic offshoot of humanity, allege that it was the DreamingCelestial alone who was responsible for the creation of their race, and it was for this reason that the rest of the Second Host punished the Great Renegade.
