      weird experience - do dc's help you to become lucid?

      I experienced that a week ago and it was sort of weird:

      I tried to WILD so I went to bed normally. The light's were switched off and soon I came to an interim state of dream and reality in which I knew that I was still awake, but could also see and feel things that were dreams.
      I'm new to lucid dreaming (managed it 2 times until now) and somehow WILD would not work this day - somehow I did not manage to fall asleep when somebody came to help me with it. o_O

      This was very odd, because I knew this dc (it actually was a character of a game I had played a few hours before), he treated me as if I was his girlfriend or something. It was weird because I already could control him like i normally do with people in dreams, but on the other hand he said and did some things I did not effect. I told him that I was trying to gain a lucid dream and he seemed really puzzled, as if I had gone crazy, but then he decided that I looked ill (I had that image of a jittering me inside a dreamworld) and wanted to help me by just sitting there with me.

      It was disturbing:
      I felt the sheets of my bed as well as his hand on my shoulder.
      I must have drifted off then, because I fell asleep and did not have a lucid dream, but I'm going to try it again tonight.

      The real question ist:
      Is it normal that this happens and dc's really sometimes help you to get lucid?
      Maybe I was lucky and that was a very nice dc?
      Or was that just a wish that got stuck halfway between dream and reality?

      ive heard of many DCs trying to help a dreamer gain lucidity. but i think u were already asleep, because u felt his hand on your shoulder. you should've did a mouth breathing reality check. if your mouth is closed, just try to breathe in and out of your mouth only. if you can, your actually already dreaming. thats how a lot of my WILDs are....

      I never know if my mouth is open or closed, I just can't feel it when WILDing... *lol*

      I felt his hand, but I felt my bed as well. I knew that I could open my eyes now and would see my room and everything. Also the scenery was not as clear as in a lucid dream and if I already was asleep I would have remembered my lucid dream which I did not (means I had none).

      I've had very helpful dream characters. One saved me a couple times just before crashing. Another promised to help me become lucid more often. And one did make me lucid, by asking "Do you believe in lucid dreams?" I think it's just a reflection of myself, spcifically my views on dreaming. Dreaming is from my head, and of course my head would like to protect my head, y'know? So, my DCs tend to be nice. They haven't made me lucid reliably, though.

      Was the character, by chance, Link?

      No, but why do you ask? Is it that obvious that I like The Legend Of Zelda? xD

      It was Zack Fair from FF7 - Crisis Core; I guess because I saw him die a few hours before going to sleep which really made me cry. In my next lucid dream I'm going to destroy shinra and get revenge for good. *lol*

      A Final Fantasy VII character was my second guess, coincidentally. XD

      I guessed based upon your username. *nods*

      i can imagine why your DC would look rattled. Anyway, some of my dreams have ended wit me imagining a bunce of stuff with my eyes closed. It was a surprise, but i still think you were really imagining it.
