    The Erratic dreams of StaySharp

    1. Elevator escape and a Dreamsphere Chronicles attempt

      by , 11-06-2014 at 09:37 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      As far as I can remember the dream began with me being chased by something or someone inside of a big building. Once again its dimensions were not from this world, it had 6 or more elevators in the middle and an absolutely exceptional spacey staircase. There was stuff and garbage lying all around and in order to get to the lower levels to escape I had to remove the garbage, for whatever reason. I apparently couldn't use any stairs, or didn't have the idea. Eventually I arrived at level 2 in an elevator, and realized something odd about the dream, pinched my nose and realized I was dreaming.

      The elevator opened to a maintenance shaft, through which I floated instead of crawling. I turned around once, not sure why, but the path behind me did not change at least. I exited the building but was still rather high above the ground, a dangerous or deadly height for a normal human. I thought about turning into Ryuuko, so I did that and glided down there, the place was somewhat industrial yet rural. While flying I saw myself from behind for a short moment, and again Ryuukos scales were mostly green, this time however the inner parts of the wings were a flashy blue. I looked at my hands, I could see the claws but the proportions were off, the fingers had totally wrong lengths, which I could fix however. While they were largely covered in green scales, the insides of the hands looked rather human in color if I remember right. I landed on something container like and I thought about trying to breathe fire, but remembered I didn't have the skill and needed some skill points from quests and the likes to enable it. There were a few people close by (I think they wore cloaks or something along those lines), so I tried talking to them but when I was asking for a quest I suddenly couldn't talk anymore and
      woke up with a rather dry mouth. Meh.


      Well, I tried to stabilize a little with my mind but I think I should've paid it more attention. Also next time I turn into Ryuuko I should try to not just adapt to her body, but her mind as well. In the beginning of the game there'd be no way she'd just go to random people and ask them for a quest. Next time around I should ask the game, the dream itself for a quest or something like that. Also the transformation was not complete again, I forgot to add the 6 tentacles on her back. Also I was obviously not in Cardia, so I need to fix that next time as well.

    2. Falling elevators, an awesome panorama and being interrupted while lucid again

      by , 09-25-2014 at 03:39 AM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      Today I had a fairly interesting dream in which I even became lucid! What a darn fuck I've been awakened to instead waste more life, time and health in the company... Anyway,

      I was in some rather huge complex which was located in the sky, far above the clouds. It might've been roughly inspired by a documentary about the Sony center in Berlin I saw yesterday in the company. The construction largely consisted of mostly golden metal strands, with mostly glass and/or transparent materials for grounds and walls, so the clouds could be permanently seen from anywhere. I remember there was some event going on, and for some reason Sasuke could be heard, expressing his hate for purposeless people. I was distrusting the elevators I used and eventually one elevator stopped one level below the place I wanted to go out on, just that there was nothing there yet, so as the doors which were transparent anyway opened I looked down onto clouds and a long fall. I was somewhat scared (not much though) and then the elevator started dropping. It was a really long fall though, so there was plenty time to stop it, and I was talking about fixing it with some voice, and eventually it was fixed in time.

      I already was close to the ground where an astonishingly awesome panorama greeted me. It was rendered at first in the old FF8 style, I was probably on some cliff, close the ocean. Ahead of me was a big yellow platform on which I controlled some characters in FF8 style, I think there was another platform behind it, smaller and slightly to the right. Further ahead was either another island or a part of the one I was standing on, connected through the land I saw at the edge of my vision to the left. My vision also seemed to be wider than in real life. Where the beach of the opposite piece of land would've been was a stone construct with water pools and creeks, with repeating patterns.

      I've been taking in the awesome sight which grew increasingly realistic, making me lucid by sheer awesomeness and feelings!

      My fear from the situation with the elevator before turned to its opposite and I jumped down the cliff, gently gliding, until the alarm wakes me midflight...

    3. Invasion, thunder- and meteorstorm

      by , 06-15-2014 at 11:15 AM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      Most impressively I had yet another lucid, barely a week later than my previous one! This seems to bode well for me, as I expected my next lucid may very well be another full month ahead.

      I was close to some kind of mildly futuristic building which spannd one half of my vision. Behind my was a huge plane, surrounded by trees in the distance. There was some kind of invasion and a huge amount of lifefrms trying to kill me, and I had an somewhat awkward fight, where I eventually crawled over those that were standing on a ramp, outside the building, that ramp was right outside the building, the first part going towards the building before making a 90 degree turn and connecting to a protruding platform of the building. There eventually I came to some kind of truce with the attackers.
      [Small gap where I'm not sure what happened]
      I'm still at the same place, the invaders now gone, and I think someone else was close by. I was looking into the plane, the sky was clouded and an eerie light was emitting from above. Thunders started to appear, with a strong red color and I enjoyed the view, then a cluster of meteors came through the clouds, somewhat startling me, but also making me realize
      I was dreaming. I tried to call forth such a meteorstorm again, but instead saw some phosphenia like stuff, though I felt I was close. I was walking away from the plane, probably through the building into some kind of empty city, trying to recall what exactly I wanted to do in my lucidity, but failing in doing so.
      Eventually I had a false awakening after which I was talking with my girlfriend about something.

      But hey, at least I tried to remember, now I have to work on being able to do so next time.
    4. Escape the tickstorm down the mountain

      by , 12-17-2013 at 04:01 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      I was in a medium sized shack in a forest, my girlfriend also was there I remember though she didn't play any part in anything whatsoever. The shack was made of old, somewhat rotten looking wood with many smaller holes, letting the daylight in. There wasn't much in there, just a few uninteresting tools. There was some kind of nest there which apparently was harboring some kind of dangerous flying ticks (thank god our nature didn't really have this stupid idea. The ticks (all looking very different) swarmed out and I wanted to get away from these things (no panic though) so I opened the door and started running uphill for about 100m or so.
      It was a forest during a beautiful day, fresh air and pleasant light. The trees were relatively normal and the ways were only small trails. I remember something or something saying to get away from these things fast before they eat me, and that I should go downhill, not uphill. On this trail I then turned left and there it went downhill, some 500m or something and it was designed like a cliff where trees still grow out of the sides. I jumped and grabbed onto some vines and branches here and there, swinging myself down there at suicidal breakneck speeds, it was quite a lot of fun. Due to me being always invincible in dreams neither the ticks nor the fall were any actual danger to me though.
      Down there was the entrance of a small city or village and a big street which was mainly blue, also think there was a big water stream there, probably artificially created, maybe I even jumped in there for a moment, I'm not sure.

      It was also somewhere here that I became lucid, I just realized that I was dreaming (most likely because I was listening to music while sleeping and my lucidity track turned on, after I woke up I checked the playlist and there it was so I had a EILD here).
      Somehow I knew how the dream was supposed to continue so out of some mood I decided to stick with it and see how the effect on my stability is, I walked over to the village and into what's supposed to be a super market, to be precise it had the logo of PLUS (orange-blue). Somehow I remember 2 possibilities for how it looked inside, I think one of them is a fragment from another dream though.
      The inside (which I think belongs here alone) was actually very small and only very few products were there, I was talking with the shop lady about something but I don't remember about what and then the dream ended.
      In conclusion I can say that going with the plot made the dream last a felt 2-3 minutes longer, but probably wasn't worth it.

    5. Lucid when the Elevator drops

      by , 05-21-2013 at 08:37 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      All I know is that I was in some kind of hotel and that I was in an elevator, and then for some reason it suddenly dropped down and I realized this kind of danger is unrealistic so I RC'd and became lucid. I tried to "zone" out of the elevator but to no avail, for some reason I didn't have much control, it was much like my visualization attempt fails. Even though the elevator just went up some 30 or 40 meters the drop took about a minute or so after which I at least got the elevator to slow down, but I wasn't really any much lower than before (when I turned around I could see out through a glas wall).

      After that I already woke up because I was freezing as hell in my tent...
    6. The Bloodthirst

      by , 04-27-2013 at 09:13 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      This dream is really old, I don't even know how old (5-8 years I guess). I just found my notes I made on paper back then, so now I will put it up here.

      I was in some kind of subway-station and I was intercepting an invasion armada of some kind, and I also know that in that subway I got the first kill that's been made in that conflict. Everything was really dark and dirty and there seemed to be a little fog around. I've been fighting normal humans, even though my dream told me they were Diclonii (which was definitely wrong).

      The special thing about this dream was what I felt, it was some absolutely insane bloodthirst. It wasn't unreasonable bloodthirst, so I was able to distinguish what to attack and what not, but apart from that the feeling was so intense it made out most of the dream actually. I never felt anything as intense in waking life, compared to that dream waking life emotions just seem really flat alltogether.
    7. First lucid induced through hypnosis

      by , 03-26-2013 at 01:28 AM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      Before falling asleep I was listening to a hypnosis Session of Jody Whiteley from youtube. It was this one to be precise: Sleep Hypnosis Easy Lucid Dreaming - YouTube

      Spoiler for Beginning of the dream (Sexual Content):

      TL;DR of above: I had sex with an unknown girl.

      After some time I heard about someone who was now being searched europe-wide for impregnating some random girl, and that person was me. There was an high bounty on my head (12500€, or something like that, maybe 10x as much) and I was really worried about the Situation. Some time later I was in a room and thought about the situation when I came to the conclusion that I never touched anyone apart from my girlfriend, and that I'd never do that without a really good and strong reason either. Let alone impregnating anyone, as I REALLY HATE babies entirely, not to mention I'm concerned that our planet is overpopulated anyway.
      At that point I already knew I was lucid, and did a nose-pinch RC to confirm that.
      I applied what I heard in the Hypnosis video, as I got lucid I tried to react to the situation with detached interest. I don't think that made a lot of difference, but I guess it improved stability at least a little.
      I immediately went out to search for my dream guide again, and stopped in front of a big screen-like thing which displayed different landscapes, soon after I woke up.

      Spoiler for Improvement Notes:
    8. From the human catapult to the winter forest into the forsaken complex

      by , 06-30-2012 at 11:51 AM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      Everything started when I was in a city and I was about to witness the launch of someone. He was supposed to be launched by a catapult; I think he was wearing some kind of armor. Not sure whether I was actually existent at that point but I'm sure I was watching the scene in 3rd person, it seemed to be spring and it was rather bright. Upon launch I followed the "human projectile" which flew quite a long way until landing in a winter forest. The snow was 10-20cm deep, the weather itself was pretty clear, though not much light came through the trees. At this point I was definitely existent, and I was searching the dude. Not sure if something more happened here but then I found an entrance to the underground and went in.

      I'm pretty sure I went down a dark staircase into a big forsaken complex, which remembers me a lot of the Talenta boarding school I was in some years ago. The building itself was pretty long stretched, 4 or 5 levels high and there was no real separation for rooms, it seemed to be more or less one big room. I seemed to know that place really good as I always knew where to go. Somewhere around this point I had a girl who went with me, she had green medium-short hair and was a few years younger than me (15-18 I guess).

      Minute for minute I heard more and more sounds in the building and it seemed like suddenly there were a lot of people, though there should have been no one, then there were people (primarily girls) with brooms scattered everywhere, they were apparently part of a project to tend to this forsaken complex once again. They were however hostile to us as we were seen as intruders. The girl which was with me used some incantations (that's when I saw her the first time by the way) to defend us while I navigated through the corridors to avoid contact, I specifically remember she used a "Defensive Map" spell allowing us to see where people were in this complex. At that point we were in a sort of canteen, left of us a lot of tables and seats, right of us a small stair and the kitchen. It was pretty bright, as it was day and one side was pretty much a big window.
      Some minutes later in the same place I think it was dark and I was being attacked by a weird dude, he seemed to be dangerous. His eyes were a little weird, he had a strong green iris and the pupil was cross shaped. He tried to stab me with a weird tool but I catched his arm and started to stab him with a similar but longer tool into the face, specifically targeting his eyes, though I didn't seem to make much damage. I told my companions (thinking that there are a few around) they should help me because he raised another knife already. At that point I woke up.


      This dream was pretty long, so no wonder I woke up then, I probably was due some time already. Shame he didn't stab me, the standard dream invincibility would have surely made me lucid.
    9. Coon City

      by , 06-18-2012 at 01:12 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      I was in my secondary home, in the living room, sitting on the big chair my father usually uses. He was sitting on the couch and I was playing and testing around with the TV. I faintly remember some bloody stuff and that I was thinking that this movie isn’t for children. I noticed he was trying to record the movie which was about to start, and all I knew about it was that it was about Coon City.

      Coon is an abbreviation to raccoon; I guess my dream wanted to avoid calling that place Raccoon City for obvious reasons (no relation to Resident Evil). The use of raccoon in the name also had a specific reason, all the people had some certain features of raccoons.

      Over the next minutes I’ve seen some scenes from the movie, actually everything was in a forest, and there were only very few buildings, the movie was a strange but well working mixture of anime and real. One scene I saw was of one of these buildings which had an unprotected staircase outside of the building. There were a bunch of people walking, most of them “Coons” (that’s what I call the original inhabitants of Coon City) and at least 1 human, the human fell down and pretty much blew up to red pieces. Along with that scene I learned that somehow that place was really dangerous for normal humans and that the Coons generally don’t like them.
      In the next scene I was actually present myself, I wasn’t watching the movie anymore, I was part of a real story. I was a (relatively normal) human and I was together with a girl, she was a Coon and she was really cute. I don’t remember how exactly she looked like but I think she had long hair with a color somewhat like lavender, she had a cute face, and probably some raccoon features I don’t remember. In a gentle but demanding voice she whispered something along these lines into my right ear while holding me: “Please stay here, I know it’s dangerous but I want a man I really like to be with me”.
      We were standing close to an acclivity and after she told me those words I gave her some kind of positive reply, then I picked her up carrying her on my arms and started sliding down the acclivity. There was a lot of ivy on the ground and there were a few books lying around in one place. After sliding a good 100-150m we were standing up again, in front of us was another part of the forest, it was really dark and I knew it was a dangerous place. Without saying something to each other we went into different directions, planning to meet again. The last thing I remember was that I was trying to shake whatever was watching me out of those dark woods, then unfortunately the door bell woke me up… Yes how I hate this City (B) and this cursed door bell...

    10. Fragment Collection 19

      by , 05-26-2012 at 10:03 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      Depleted Coins:
      I was walking together with a few other people through a small pavilion like building, and the floor was separated into a few wood walkways and the rest was water. Someone I never got to see in the dream started to throw colorful coins at us (mostly blue and green) but suddenly I remembered something like I already was in this situation some time ago, and I knew the coins were made of some depleted radiating material. We went into some kind of building which partially looked like the changing area of a swimming bath. There I've nearly seen the person who was throwing these coins at us but he was too far away in a dark corner.

      Weird ice cage games:
      I was in some kind of cage area and there was very slippery ice on the floor, the areas were separated by metal fences. There were a lot of people around and most of them seemed somewhat hostile to me. My mind tells me the dream played in the nazi era for whatever unknown reasons. The people start throwing frozen wine bottles and glowing coal at each other, but primarily at me. However I could move better on the ice than anyone else and evaded every single attack skillfully. Even one of the wine bottles which bounced off of the ground further in my direction.

      Land of Trainstations:
      Me and my girlfriend were playing around on a railroad, close to a hill. We managed to get a long and really stable cable entangled in a fast passing train and since we had no clue what was going to happen but figured nothing too good if we stayed there we went away. Suddenly we were walking on railroads again and these were built on all kinds of different but mostly soft and slightly humid earth, during that journey we also came across a few trainstations which looked really unique.
    11. Drifting

      by , 05-14-2012 at 04:42 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      I had a pretty undetailed lucid, I know it involved some odd kinds of fighting, and me walking through a strange building. As I was watching at some scene I can't identify I slowly became lucid but the scene destabilized, my awareness level was raised the entire time but I just couldn't get back into a dream properly. But I didn't wake up either, effectively resulting in me drifting around between awake and sleeping, aware and unaware.
      After quite a while a new dream started but I wasn't aware any more.

      I've been in a van with this strange dude and a few rescued people and the planet was in a bad state of disarray. We were driving around searching for other people to pick up. At some point we were picking up people in a zone which became instable while we were in it, so as soon as we could we hauled our asses outta there. The driver at first said he wouldn't do the same mistake again but then decided to drive like a jack ass, starting with crushing straight into a house, partially up the sloping road, partially abusing the staircase of the house with now slightly less walls.
      Suddenly I was kind of outside the car talking with the driver accusing him of being somewhat stupid because the car was flat like sheet of paper after his maneuvers.
    12. Fragment Collection 16

      by , 03-11-2012 at 03:29 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      The infected plains:
      A really creepy dream about a big piece of land with all kinds of different grounds, at the start of the dream I was seeing a map of the place with different colors for different types of ground (including things like: stone, sand, grass, shallow water, deep water), they were also labelled with numbers from 1-99. I think the 99 meant no human can normally pass through, which I think was assigned to deep water as normally passing through was defined by walking on it.
      I was walking around together with someone else, and there were somehow infected humans who had a horribly distorted voice and language, who obviously were dangerous, the higher level infected ones however were able to imitate normal behavior to be able to more easily infect others. A part of me was unaware in the dream immersed, yet I had another part watching and knowing about their infection and the danger. In the end the combination of both sides compelled me to touch an infected cat which then made strange noises and gave me a scratch on the leg which woke me up.

      Spear gun trip:
      I was laying out some type of magical traps in this slightly western like looking city (the street however was very sloping and really narrow) and some people started shooting at us (whoever was there with me didn't follow me though), I picked up a bit of ammunition and got my spear gun (Bioshock 2) with some rocket spears ready.
      But as I went around the corner the dudes were gone and I found myself in a slightly dark underground complex, there was a sniper (TF2) whom I missed with my first shot, he decided to taunt me and got himself a rocket spear in the face, then 2 scouts came for me from the level below and I immediately hit one of them with a rocket spear, the other one using the stairs to come after me. After a undetailed fight I was searching through my weapons, confused not to find the weapons in the order I'm used to. On slot 2 I found some types of wine of which I used so called Sourwine to attack him and inflict acid damage.

      Strange mission:
      I was having a mission together with a companion (a girl slightly younger than me if I recall correctly), through some gestures I send her to get something (a small thing, maybe a key) while I myself was going in the opposite direction. From the green hills I was walking on a short moment ago I come into this dark place where a lot of magicians gather some strange points, they were my enemies and I tried to take them out one by one without getting the attention of the whole bunch.

    13. Jungle Deathtrap, extinguishing fire and blacklight from the sky

      by , 02-03-2012 at 05:06 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      I was being pretty much thrown into a small part of an jungle, where a few deathtraps resided. As I was flying into that section of the jungle I barely flew over a big tree chunk, hanging in mid-air, the first deathtrap was right in front of me, some sort of cable hanging there which I shouldn't touch, I managed to twist mid-air and avoided it. As I landed there I was looking around for an moment and noticed there was no way out as the vegetation has been reshaped into an prison. There was an possible exit to my left however, again equiped with some sort of deathtrap. I managed to escape however, and told a group in some way about the traitor who was responsible for that. At some later I point I was in a bright burning house, which would've been cool if it wouldn't actually belong to me. I used some sort of power, weaving with my hands, to extinguish the flames and experimented how this application was most effective. After the fire was extinguished I went around a wall and down some street, while I noticed there was blacklight coming from the sky, it was night and I saw the stars for a short moment. Some parts of me and my clothing started to fluoresces, apparently confusing and amusing the daughter of some passing by mother. I at some point also got to see a list in my personal HUD (meaning it just appeared in my field of vision) with the molecules responsible for the effect and the according colors.
    14. Infections and swimming baths

      by , 01-04-2012 at 02:44 AM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      I went into a big swimming bath complex (one of my few dream signs) and there was a virus around. It infected people and the only real first symptoms were minor behavior changes and trying to infect other people (simply by being close to them, the virus spread through air). When fully infected those people would generally behave normal except for building big groups and staying together, as well as preventing anyone to leave the group. As I went inside I understood the situation but all possible ways to escape the building were too far away, however I was immune to the virus so I disguised myself as infected. I remember being on a high tower (20m) within the main room with all the water and someone of the group wanted to check me (probably if I was infected already), but I noticed she sent someone towards me and headed to her myself and made her believe I was a normal part of the infected group, afterwards I was looking towards the big windowed side of the building trying to figure out a way to get out.
    15. Post apocalypse building with several differently high ground floors

      by , 10-04-2011 at 10:12 AM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      I was in this building, it was pretty darn huge and it had several floors, which each were connected to the ground though, like each floor was connected with a different dimension. I think i was somewhere in the middle, it was a sort of classroom, there was grass in the room and it was generally more like a small rain protection roof with the class equipment standing outside of the main building under this roof. From there you could also directly walk outside into a green forest. I was currently schooled to be ready to partake in an exploration mission of this building and after the class was finished (the dream started just seconds before though) I was assigned to sector 22, while two others were assigned to 24 and 32/34 (don't know for sure but it was one of these two), the one with the highest number wasn't happy about it for reasons to come later.
      Sectors weren't the same as floors, as far as I can tell the first number is the floor and the second number a place inside the floor, however a higher first number would mean going deeper in the building so saying U2-2 might be more correct. Also the higher the general number the higher the danger since it seemed like several unspeakable things were lurking in this building. From the classroom (which is the "real" ground floor I think) I went into the building, from there on it was like a vertical tunnel (which I call 00), everything was looking pretty technical (I know it was going down to the mentioned sectors, but I think it might also go up). To get to sector 22 I had to go down the ladder (the place down the ladder called 10 by me), walk a few steps in some direction and remove a grid from the floor, below was 22. To get the sector 24 I would have to take the opposite direction from 10 onwards and probably go down somewhere there.

      Sector 22 was a computer room, I think I was in before already (not in another dream, I felt that due to what comes next). In the dream I rembered that I already exchanged the RAM of on of the local PC's, I gathered the leftover PC components (a few motherboards but primarily RAM, I even remember seeing the AMD logo) in a big plastic box, I was thinking about further methods of upgrading and I remember seeing one of those motherboards in detail, it was able to carry 6 processors of 2 types shared 2/4.

      Now there's some type of gap, but I don't think I don't remember it, I think the dream voluntarily skipped this part for the more interesting next one. I'm pretty sure I brought the parts back up and was assigned to 3X or went down on my own curiousity.

      Sector 22 had a quadratical shape 3m x 3m with 2 meter height. In the middle was a 1m x 1m quadratical pillar and around it were 1,5m walking space, lowered by some 30 cm from the 50cm rest to the wall. And in this walking space was a instable floor segment that I could kick through to get down to 3X. The thirty level had an entire different feeling, everything looked old, and the probably once white walls had light stains and a dirty yellow everywhere, and unlike 2X which was maybe slightly dangerous in 3x you could really feel imminent danger. From where I landed was a door directly in front of me (slightly opened), one to my left side, a small corrider to my right and a big hallway leading outside behind me. And looking outside I see a post apocalyptic scene, rotten grass, a dead tree, a small street and there were pretty strong winds. The hallway, the door-type as well as the tree and the street strongly remember me of the school building in my first boarding school.

      Unfortunately the dream ended at this point due to me waking up
