Dreamcatchers are supposed to catch your nightmares, but all you get is A Beautiful Dream!s.
So:
If there's dreamcatcher near someone sleeping, it starts to catch nightmares, which cannot be used for most magic (but can, however, for "seer" curios), and occasionally (rarer than without someone sleeping) catches beautiful dreams, both with Q of (sleeping one PSY + Dreamcather Q)/2 (+-5). High-Q dreamcatchers can also contain more dreams.
Also, idea just came to my mind. Why not have wisps, which are able to do something (yes, I know it looks like serverside bots.), perharps haunt targets if made from nightmares.
And little flavoury stuff - if nearby dreamcatchers caught best possible dream/nightmare (+5 Q modifier), your character gets status effect, that does nothing but indicates that such a dream was.
