Yay I enjoyed my failure this morning as well! Oh and that prairie dog was just dave, pay no mind next time. Anyway, I actually DEILDed this morning, which is rare for me. I had 3 mini lucids, and in the 3rd one, I found a vampire chick who bit my neck while I stood in front of a mirror. But I woke up before any transition occured, oh well. I'll post the link in a bit.
Well I finally managed to get bit by a vampire, then watch myself transform in the mirror. I was DEILDing though, so technically I got bit on one LD, then transformed in the next, with about 5 seconds between the 2. So I don't know if that counts or not. I'm blogging it right now. It was a super morning of lucid diarrhea.
Spoiler for potential success?:
He was a young guy, in his 20's maybe, wearing jeans, a blue hoodie, shoulder-length wavy brown hair. And damn sexy. I asked him if he was a vampire. He smiled and said "yes," and I could see a flash of white, pointy teeth. I said "you can bit me if you want." He asked "Are you sure?" I said "Do it, it's for an experiment." So he said "Okaaaay...." and tipped my head to the left. (Interesting note I just realized: the vampire chic in the last dream went for the opposide side of my neck than the dude.) He bit down on my neck in the traditional spot, and again, it didn't feel like a puncture, more like a super hot hickey. Wow. You guys seriously gotta try this! Then he just slowly urged me down on the grass, and without breaking the bite, started removing our clothes. HELL yeaaaah. I really wanted it. But then I remembered I wanted to see the transition even more than vampire sex ( maybe next time). So I pushed him off and said "Sorry" and ran into the house. I went into the hall bathroom which was already lit up, praise goodness. I looked at my reflection and saw the bite marks, same as last time. I reached up and could feel them too, a little gross but no blood. I felt awakeness start to pull me (ffffuuuuu!), and I woke up, with the image of my reflection staring back at me, burned into my mind.
I immediately went back to sleep (I can only thank my new found ability to ignore feelings of disappointment or dispair in LDs, as they deter from goals. If only I could apply this irl.) Anyway, sure enough, I went right back into the dream staring at my reflection.. same pose and everything, and completely lucid (that's a lucid first for me!) I was determined not to let this one go without experiencing the transition, since I remembered everything from the previous dreams at that point. I opened my mouth and stared at my teeth. After a few moments, my incisors lengthened and sharpened, but they looked like they had rotated 90 degrees. That's odd. I kept watching and those same incisors grew a little longer, and additional sharp growths sprouted from them. I watched as the other teeth did the same thing. I looked at my irises, hoping for some bad ass color change, but they stayed normal. Lol the ONE TIME. I stepped back a bit and opened my mouth a little wider, to see all my teeth. Every one of them was sharp, with tiny barbs protruding from each one. That would make a hell of a bite I'd say! The last thing I saw from that dream before waking up, was staring at my creepy new teeth, with a big wide grin.
Well I finally managed to get bit by a vampire, then watch myself transform in the mirror. I was DEILDing though, so technically I got bit on one LD, then transformed in the next, with about 5 seconds between the 2. So I don't know if that counts or not. I'm blogging it right now.
Oh, that's got to count!! Great bite, great transformation, everything. I'm going to comment on your DJ entry as well.

LOL. You have a way with words. Hope you brought the lucid baby wipes.

Well I managed to do both of the advanced tasks in one dream last night. Things didn't go quite like I planned them. I think it might be best that way though.
YES! Finally did the basic TOTM. Well actually I chickened out, but a zombie attacked me so it was inevitable. Haha.
Spoiler for the dream:
As I am running, somebody grabs me by my left arm and pulls me, making me fall to the ground. It's one of the zombies. I push him away, which is easy because he doesn't seem to have much strength. He grabs my right leg and bites me above my ankle. I could feel the squishiness as his teeth make contact with my skin. I cry out in pain – it feels like he just tore off a chunk of my leg. I realize he actually did. There is a gaping hole, and to make things worse, the zombie spits into it! WTF. I kick him in the face, and run to the door, limping.
I get inside and I totally forget about teleporting through the door, so I just end up in my living room instead. By the time I look back, the door is gone (along with the other doors) and there are no windows anywhere too. The floor turns into soil. The furniture is still there though. I look at my ankle, but the bite mark is gone. I walk to one corner, where there is a full-length mirror. I look at myself. My eyes are starting to look green, my eyelids feel so droopy, and my jaws feel slack. My skin is turning pale and rough, and it's very itchy too. It's that type of itch where even if you scratch it, it feels like it's never the right spot, and it never goes away. It isn't painful, but it feels uncomfortable.
I head to the couch to sit down. I feel sleepy now. I tell myself I'm not gonna sleep because I need to stay lucid. Okay... Maybe I'll just lean back a bit to get comfortable...This cushion is so soft... Mmmmm...
That's awesome paige! Did you start to look like your avatar? Anyway, you did better than I did yesterday. I chickened out too, but didn't complete the task
Anyway, I immediately thought of the TOTM. Since I've kinda been working down the list from easiest to hardest (for me), I thought I'd try the pumpkin head one. In the dream, I was in the back hallway but not near the bathroom. So I just imagined that the next door to my left would be the team member bathroom, and sure enough the little restroom sign appeared next to the door. Oh, I wanted a bathroom so I could use a mirror for reference when popping off my head. I went into the bathroom, and closed the door. I even locked the door because I didn't want a random DC to come in and fuck up my task. So I looked in the mirror and thought of CanisLucidus and the lego-head thing. I tried to lift my head from my neck, but it didn't pop off. Instead it stretched a bit. Like silly putty (was it paigey who did something similar? Somebody had a silly putty neck). Anyway, it stretched a few inches, and then I was just like "Oh FUCK no" and quit! It was just too real feeling. I mean, I knew I was dreaming still, but it felt too real and morbid. I felt as scared as I did when I had the first pleiosaur lucid. I had the same "omg RUN AWAAAAAAAAAAaaay" feeling. Damnit.
Thanks! And Ophie I know all too well what you mean I need to work on fear of pain and sensations once I'm lucid. I just can't stomach things when it feels soooo real lol
today i had my first lucid dream since joining this forum. so i attempted the TOTM for the first time
i was having a fairly hectic dream about chasing people and then got to a set of stairs and wondered which way to go. then i thought, ah its just a dream it doesnt matter which way. hey presto i was lucid!
immediately when i became lucid i started to fly. i always fly as soon as i become lucid
i felt the dream fading though and opened my eyes a little bit unintentionally. so i started rubbing my hands and thinking 'im lucid' over and over. eventually things became more vivid. then i remembered the task of the month. i fly down into a house and into the kitchen. i decided to attempt the pumpkin head task. there was a mirror and i looked in it and pulled at my head. it was hard first but then it popped right off. it was kind of like a lego head popping off, except more liquidy and squelchy.
anyway, i thought to myself, 'maybe i shouldve found the pumpkin before i pulled my head off, ooops'. i looked in the fridge and there was a tiny little pumpkin about the size of a fist and it was all old and sloppy, but it was already carved. so i tried to put it on but something didnt feel right, so i looked in the mirror and my head was back! i was just trying to put the pumpkin on top of my head! double ooops.
ok, time to find a new pumpkin. i went outside and found a larger pumpkin, about head size but flatter and wider. it wasnt carved so i had to fumble around looking for knife to carve it. finally i found a knife but i was so clumsy and uncoordinated that it was a real struggle to carve it. finally i made a hole in the top and started pulling out the guts but then the dream faded really quick and i woke up!
oh well mission failed but it was fun trying anyway!
i've made trick-o-treat task. And it was really funny! I like trick-o-treating in dreams! I met ANGELIK, but completely forgot her nick and one guy tell me about his neighbour from DV, his name is SUPER and nick VEHIPOLIS))) trick-o-treating - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views
Another failed attempt at pumpkin head. Just call me Nearly Headless Ophelia:
The first lucid was when I woke up (I think?), and was just lying on my back with my eyes open. Then I felt vibrations. I thought that it was weird that I felt them while my eyes were opened, so I decided I was already dreaming so I got up. When I did, a corner of the blankets were stuck to my face and I had to pry it off lol. I thought about the pumpkin head task again, but I was ambivalent. The last time didn't go so well and I didn't even really want to do it. But it was either that one or the frankenstein one and I didn't feel like doing that one either lol. So I made up my mind and just marched into the bathroom. I looked at my reflection, then got up real close and looked at my eyeballs, the pupils morphed all weird. I stuck just my head through the mirror then pulled it back out. This time was the most effortless mirror push. Instead of liquid, it felt like cool air. Somehow the mirror moved the features of my face down to the bottom 1/3 of my face, if that makes sense. So I stuck it back in the mirror, then out again, and it was back to normal. Which gave me an idea. I wondered if I stuck my head in the mirror, and pulled with my hands at the same time, my head might stay in the mirror and become detached. So I tried it, and what resulted was really bizzare: I pulled back out of the mirror, and my head was still attached, but it had completely deflated and was just hanging down off my neck like a popped balloon. I couldn't see this fact, because I was blind the second I came out of the mirror. I felt it with my hands. That was far enough for one dream, so I stuck my upper body back into the mirror, then pulled back out. Still blind, but I could feel my head back in place. And it wasn't true blindness, because I could see the bathroom light behind closed eyelids. I even pointed my face up toward the light, and it became brighter. So I pryed my lids open with my fingers and I could see again. Fucking weird. Then I woke up.
Firstly, I LOVE the 4 tasks idea, please continue!!
I only managed to complete one task this month, but I would love the challenge/variety of doing all 4 in months to come!
I haven't had much time for DV lately so I'm posting a last-minute update again.
Here's my DJ from October 8th, where I completed an advanced task and attempted a basic (but didn't remember the task correctly - so we had a party instead!)
I remembered the tasks were Halloween themed, and I knew there was a task that involved DV people being in the same neighbourhood, but I forgot about the trick-or-treating part and instead thought the task was to have a Halloween party. So I told the DC to drive down the street to the house where the party was being held. I got out of the car and saw Atras standing outside. I ran up and gave him a hug, but I accidentally knocked him over backwards and we both fell into the snow. I looked at his face and realised it didn’t actually look like Atras at all. Then someone behind me excitedly said, “Hey!” I looked around and saw the real Atras, so I realised I was lying on top of a stranger! I got up and chatted to Atras, and he introduced me to the friend/date he had with him - the actress from his latest film. I remember being introduced to someone named Laura outside, but I can’t remember if Laura was the actress or someone else arriving at the house. We all went inside and joined the party. There was a room full of people chatting, eating and drinking. I recognised a few DV people by their energy (they didn’t look similar to their profile pictures at all) but I wasn’t sure who most people were. I asked someone if PercyLucid was there, and they said he wasn’t. I felt a little out of place until I started talking to Hyu, who I felt was very present and I wondered if we were sharing a dream. He seemed very wise, and was very familiar with the dream world and the people within it. We spoke for ages and he helped me calm my excitement about the potential dream-share so I could stay grounded. He also introduced me to some other people at the party - OpheliaBlue, Mancon, Dakotahnok, someone called Raoul (I’m not sure where that name came from, but he seemed like a DV member in the dream,) and I think Zebrah was there, too. There were definitely more people, but I can't remember who.
Around this time, the doorbell rang. Someone opened it and two policemen walked in. I was a bit worried that the party would be busted up, but then I realised that it was just some pizza delivery guys dressed up for Halloween! I don’t think they actually had pizzas with them - instead, they were taking our orders on notepads, like waiters.
After seeing the cop costumes, I looked around the room and realised that no-one at the party was really dressed up for Halloween, except for someone who was wearing a black cape like Dracula. I realised we could remedy this by doing the advanced task as a group, ‘Carve up a pumpkin and replace your head with it.’ We all sat down in a circle and began carving our pumpkins. A few people were considering replacing their heads with pigs’ heads instead for some reason, but we talked them into using pumpkins with us. When our pumpkins were ready, we all removed our real heads together. They came off easily just by lifting them, and it didn’t hurt at all. My vision remained the same, despite the removal of my head. As a group, we then placed our pumpkins on our necks and used ‘lucid’ (imaginary) needles to sew them on. We decided to decorate the pumpkins like snowmen, so we attached carrots for noses and looked around for something that might look like eyes. We found some red apples and inserted portions into our eye holes, where they transformed and became glowing, bloodshot eyes. We continued the party with our pumpkin heads attached.
DV members in the dream: Atras, Hyu, OpheliaBlue, Mancon, Dakotahnok, Zebrah, and two others named Laura & Raoul (I'm not sure who they were meant to represent...)
