Thread: Task of the month for June 2010

Have fun all.

Well, at least half of it was my idea!!

Damn, I wanted to see other people become heartless (heartless mushroom) That would be fun!!!! Oh well, fire is it... I think pyrokinesis is easier than morphing into another being!!!

I completed last task on the night of the 2nd... so I must beat my record and complete it on the night to the 31st to the 1st or the 1st to the 2nd!!! That's a though record to beat, but I must do it!!!!!! Then, I will become the heartless mushroom cuz its fun (by the way, if someone dares to enter my dream I want to advice that the mushroom that I will become has protection from all elements, the one I posted in the other thread is the Black Fungus, immune to everything... so not using pyrokinesis on me cuz it won't work!!!! (Specially advised to those who hate mushrooms)

Go for it, it's always nice to already have your wings when the month starts. I've done that a few times, maybe I'll do one of these tonight

I Did not know I could do the tasks already Awesome!!! Then I will try tonight! Count it completed tonight or very soon

Have fun all.

The advanced task was one I was planning to do anyway. Maybe I'll walk though a mushroom patch setting things on fire. 2 birds with 1 stone ya know.

I didn't know this was a task, and I tried it this morning... and failed miserably. I've never been able to control fire in dreams. Water and earth will will work all the time, but fire? I guess it's just not my element.

I try the spell several more times, but it just won't work. ((Come to think of it, I've NEVER been able to use fire. I blame Leroy for this.))I'm really more concerned with why I can't get this spell to work than I am with being attacked.

Advanced seems a little easy, but i'll do them both, i'll have more trouble with the basic

DJ link in my sig. Not much more to last night. I was hoping to teach man fire and use pyrokinesis, but I guess I had to get permission first.

I'm in a dark house and there is a presence there. I know the person from somewhere, but this time he feels old. I cannot ever see him. There is a painting of a fire on the wall that seems to illuminate the dark room from within. I telepathically tell the man I wish to control fire and suddenly I am scrutinizing the painting as if with a looking glass. I'm making the fire glow white hot in places and grow cold in others. I'm shaping the fire and fixing it's intensity. It has become a mighty efreet, trapped not in a bottle, but in the piece of art, is the piece of art. Telepathically the man asks me "Do you dare release the djinni?" I can feel the anguish of the trapped fire being and it is fairly intense for a minute.


There was much conversation after that which I cannot remember.

Easy squeezy!! Will definitely complete within 5 or 6 days...
I can already control fire, but mushroom patch will be harder to find.

I like these tasks. Good job.

Advanced was already a goal of mine, Basic... Will try. Hopefully I can get Orange-Named

Behold!! The first one EVER to complete a task so soon!!

Anyways, the time here is 4:15 in the morning, and I just woke up from a lucid. I was able to WILD directly after going to bed because I was VERY tired and had been awake for 23 hours or so, and my body went into sleep paralysis a LOT quicker than normal. But the dream in which I did the task was an FA AFTER the WILD dream.

Non-Lucid Lucid

'Wow!", I think. "Great WILD. I had better write it down in my DJ in case I forget it."
I take out my DJ notebook beside the bed, and turn on the lamp beside my bed. It doesn't work. I try again, but still no go. What the heck. I will just write a few key words in my mobile.
I take out my mobile from my pocket. I open it up. There are all sorts of weird shapes and symbols written. Wait a minute, this thing is not even the model I own!
I become lucid. Just to be sure, I pinch my nose. The RC feels kind of weird, and I feel like I am not pressing it too much. But then I squeeze my nose with full force, and found out that I could still breathe!! My lucidity increased further. I looked around. I was not in a lush forest, with thick trees.
I slowly get up, and start to walk around. I suddenly remember the task of the month. Oh yeah! I search for it, but I find no mushroom patch.
No matter. I take a "seed" out of my pocket, and plant it in the ground. Instantly, about 20 or so mushrooms, all with small stems, thick, ball-like heads, and a pulsating green color, sprung out from the ground. Cool.
I started to walk through them, avoiding touching them. I am not really fond of mushrooms. In the middle of the patch, one of the mushroom opens it's "mouth" and bites my leg. It was painful. Without thinking, I activated my magic. Black rings appeared around my wrists. (look in my DJ to get the whole description, I have used magic before like this) Instinctively, I touch the "fire" symbol that was revolving around inside the ring. (again, look in my DJ to figure it out.) In a split second, flames of abnormal size roar up from my hands. Wait a minute, I had to walk THROUGH the patch.
Dammit. I gather up the courage and skip across to the patch's other side. Then, I use the flames that had build up in my hands, and blast the whole patch away. It leaves a huge crater there.
(somehow, the whole landscape had changed to th inside of an office building. )

I forcibly woke myself up here, because I tend to forget the things I do early in a lucid.
Man, I am really tired now. With the typing outta the way, I'm gonna go back to bed. Perhaps I can WILD again?

EDIT : Going to write the full dreams in my DJ tomorrow.

Hahahaha good job, but I completed the task last month as soon as you, so you are the second one ever

Sorry

Bummer.


EDIT : Can't sleep again. Woke myself up too much. *sigh*

I never go to the computer, I just jot them on my paper journal and in the morning here.

Tonight I will complete it, I want my wings back!

I want to note that I completed both last night!!!

I must go now but I will copy all my dreams from last night from my paper DJ to the DV one (quite a few) I was not able to beat my record but at least, I did it as soon as last month. I will upload my dream her as well later.

I knew a couple of days off work would recharge my lucidity battery

Uh, where are my precious wings???? I want wings!!!!

I'm pretty new to lucid dreaming, but I think giving the TOTM a try will be good practice for my dream control. I never got a chance to try last month's because I wanted to get other fun things done first (flying, shapeshifting).

So I tried the advanced task last night during a DEILD and failed. But I gave it a good shot!

The patterns on my eyelids became an intricate carpet sitting in front of me on a table. I reached out and touched the carpet to hold onto the dreamscape, then looked around at the room. I rubbed my hands together to stabilize and it worked pretty well. I still drifted in and out of SP and dream for a while until I found myself in the back of a car listening to the driver tell a really boring story. I said, "you know, this is my dream, so just shut up," and I got out of the car.

I was in a junkyard. There were big piles of junk around me. I remembered I wanted to try pyrokenesis. So I focused on a pile of junk in front of me, built up some heat in my hands, and pushed it out toward the garbage. Nothing happened. I tried a couple more times with nothing more than a tiny bit of smoke.

I wondered if there was a pill I could take that would make me able to create fire. Of course! Dragon bone would work. At this point I was in a house looking through a medicine cabinet. No dragon bone. But I knew there was a dragon skull on display in one of the back rooms! So I got a glass of water and started looking for the back room. I found what seemed like a promising room- it was sunlit and set up like a museum with things in glass cases. I found the skull in one of the cases, but as I went to open the case, the dream faded.

I got back into the dream a couple of times but never succeeded in opening the case. Then I got distracted by more important things like dream sex ;-P

So no success at the pyrokenesis. Any suggestions from advanced pyros out there? Maybe I should find a plasmid vending machine from Bioshock.

I did my homework!!!

I could not beat my record, but at least, I completed the dreams as soon as last month. Here it comes

Mushrooms growing indoors and lava hands (MILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was in an apartment with some friends. I think we were talking about dreams. It was a big apartment with wooden floor. I became lucid without performing any RC. The image was pretty clear and I knew I was lucid, so I did not find necessary a RC.

I remembered the Task of the Month. I was happy because the basic task was something I suggested. I was still indoors and I saw no mushrooms. I took a small seed from my pocket. It was round. My wife told me that the seed was not going to work in the wooden floor. I knew it would so I threw it and after a few seconds, some mushrooms spawned. They were small white mushrooms.







I saw only a few of them. I remembered that someone completed the task with about 20 of them, so I wanted more. I waited a while until the floor was full of mushrooms. I walked over them and when I was at the end of the path, I remembered I had to use pyrokinesis. I'm not a fan of pyro so I just did the task to earn my goal. I rose my hand and channeled my energy to them. At first, and odd orange-red liquid came out of my hands and fell on the ground. I heard my friends panicking. A second later, the ground was burning and I saw my hands surrounded by lava and fire. Task is done. I used no other weapon but my mind, so it was pyrokinesis.

I was happy as my "duties" were completed, so I decided to explore the world. There was a big window so I just jumped out. The window was closed, but I was able to walk through it without breaking it, glide to the ground and land gently. I'm very used to fly so it did not take a second of concentration.

I was walking in downtown. People was scared for a reason and I heard a voice that talked about a giant wave. I saw one of the buildings that had a wave behind. It was odd because there was like a field force behind the building that retained the wave until the wave vanished.

I remembered that I could also do one tasks of the year. I knew that I have not been dreaming for a long time and I was probably on my last REM. I recalled that before the dream, I woke up at around 05:30 AM to write a dream I had in my journal. I knew I was far from waking. It's required one task of the year per dream, but nothing says I can't do the ToTM and one ToTY. I wanted to look for gladiators, but I felt that it could be fun to witness the meteor destroying the dinosaurs. I knew I needed a time machine for it.

I was walking (and I also flew short distances to gain speed) looking for odd stores and odd places that would carry time machines. Nothing.

I saw a public phone. I felt that it might work as a time machine. I grabbed the phone and I though, "If I type the year I want, I might travel there." I could not find a "-" sign to go back. I though that if I went ahead in time it would be fun too. I typed a five digit number starting with a 1. A voice over the phone said, "Cannot complete this manufacturer. It will take over a month."

Made no sense and I was cursing the phone. I fell into a semi-lucidity. I was still lucid, but I was not thinking properly. I knew I was dreaming and asleep, but I was worried that I would be asleep for a month if I made the phone (time machine) work and traveled.

I walked away from the phone and woke up.

Completed the advanced one after a little bit of trying. I had to use it on a zombie who attacked me in Mexico. Then helped some guy at his campsite Dream journal post #10:

Fire - Starting In A BBQ Grill With My Hand (WILD)
Having this power in this lucid that allows me to shoot fire out of my right hand. Extending my hand toward this BBQ grill and starting a blazing fire that is so large that it begins to concern me as I'm thinking it could catch the house on fire. Pulling my hand back toward me which shrinks the fire down to a more manageable size.

I suppose pyrokinesis can't be that hard, I'm already prety good at telekinesis. If I happen on a patch of mushrooms I'll walk through them and I bet it would be funny to make them come alive with little faces and arms and legs and we can have a parade of happy dancing mushrooms then I'll torch them.

i really like the idea of this months tasks and plan on trying to complete both of them;
although they were already two of my goals. Except instead of mushroom patch, a mushroom forest
