      Gifts from dream characters?

      Hello everyone.
      Last night I had a lucid where I was once again trying to teleport. I didnīt succeed, but after I tried, a DC told me he was a blacksmith and could upgrade my weapon to make portals. After he finished, I could teleport via portals easily.
      So my question is, has anyone had a DC give them a gift (etc.) that gave you more dream control?

      No I have never had this happen. But it's not a bad way to improve your dream control if you have problems.

      That is an excellent solution to your problem. I love how our dreaming minds can come up with surprising solutions, like this.

      I think doors are better at first, because you donīt need to create them, which makes them easier to use, but once you learn to make portals you donīt have to look for doors.

      I have received many gifts from dream characters. In Senoi culture, once you defeat a dream character, ask for a gift.

      Too bad my DCs have the habit to dissolve into a dark cloud when I hit them. Kinda hard to ask for a gift.

      How am I supposed to defeat them without hitting them? (I maybe should note that I canīt do pretty much anything than fly, teleport and summon keyblades.) Maybe I could punch them. But then it would take forever to defeat them...

      I figured out how to teleport easy without waking up in the process last night. I was in an odd version of my house and decided that instead of roaming around like i did my past 15 or so lucids that i would adventure. Something just said in my head "Close your eyes rub your hands and spin." So thats what I did and now teleportation is easy and I can go on what ever adventure I want now. As for gifts I am gonna ask that machine like dragon, I dont really know what it is for a reward for they key I am going to give him tonight.

      I've only had a dc give me a gift once, but it didn't affect my control. Quite a while ago I had this lucid dream where I ended up at a banquet. This dc that was supposed to be god was the host. He gave everyone at the banquet a gift. I received a book with the title "WILD Lucid Dreaming" with some oddly named authors. I could only recall one of the names when I woke up, it was "Wan Thanatos". I thought that the authors names were pretty funny, overall it was a cool dream.


      There is--though I do not know how there is or why there is--a sense of infinite peace and protection in the glittering hosts of heaven. There it must be, I think, in the vast and eternal laws of matter, and not in the daily cares and sins and troubles of men, that whatever is more than animal within us must find its solace and its hope. I hope, or I could not live.

      I wonder what would happen if you would find that book in a lucid and finish it...

      Well, I never actually read the book, but perhaps that's a good thing. lol

      I did know what thanatos meant, but i had no idea that wan was an actual word. I thought it was a bad misspelling of juan. Depending on which definition we use the name comes out to be either sickly death, or ineffective death. I think i prefer the latter.

      I've already encountered the possibility of volumes published in ayahuasca reality that others can read while partaking of dmt. There is a theory our pineal gland produces dmt during rem sleep, perhaps you are interacting with akashik records on the astral plane.

      Yes, gifts are just another way of dream control. By believing the black smith, you earned the ability to teleport. By believing my dream guide, I became a vampire. Dreaming is believing. By believing, a ninja rainbow unicorn learnt to break dance. (windmilling ninja rainbow unicorn ftw)

      Something worth mentioning, gifts dont' necessarily mean anything. It's just your dream characters feeling cheesy.

      Repeated gifts can mean something else, tho.

      Well, weīll see if I meet this blacksmith again.
      Oh, and how did you become a vampire?

      Long story. My DG is one. She bit me.
