Fun, Easy, and Difficult Ways to Teleport

First! Welcome to my thread. I am BrandonBoss, but you can call me "BB", "Brandon", or just "Boss" is fine. :P

Rating System
Type:
two main types inter-dimensional (ID), and outer-dimensional(OD). Some can be used for both. inter-dimensional has two types as well, short range and long range. Some can be used as both as well. I will list ID or OD first and then short or long.
Difficulty From Start:
Obvious, how hard is this going to be from the git, if you have personal experience with any of method of dream control, you might have an easier time with ones that are similar to your own experience.
Difficulty Later:
How hard is this going to be when you master it.
Fun:
obvious
Usefulness in Average Dream:
Are you gonna be able to do this in a dream normally or will you have to look for something or use more dream control to get to it?
Usefulness in Fight:
Obvious
Drawbacks:
Obvious

Teleporting Technniques

Dream Items
Type:
Both; Both
Summary:
Find an item that will allow you to teleport. Like a wand, portal gun, portal, or anything else. You use it like you think you would.

Usefulness in Average Dream:
depends on the item, but normally going to require some minor summoning or looking for an item, so you can't just do this.
Usefulness in Fight:
depends on the item, if you have a wand, it could be used to do spells as well. portal guns could be used easily in a fight as an attack or defense, especially with attacks or defenses. It is kind of dependent on the item.
Drawbacks:
Minor summoning. Could take a bit of time to get the item, might be the wrong item. Will always have to do that summon.
Dream Example:
I am already holding a wand again... :3 I shall apparate away. I turn and appear somewhere else. The dream stability is messed up and I forget to restabilize and lose the dream quickly. This can happen a lot in teleporting. Try to calm down right before you teleport in case you wake up. It is easier to restabilize and easier to DEILD back if you are calm.

Expectation
Type:
Both; Both

Straight Up Expectation... duh... :P

Usefulness in Average Dream:
Can be useful, you need to work on expectation a lot if you going to get good at dream control, so if you have used it before, you will find it easy, or if you haven't you will have some issues.
Usefulness in Fight:
meh...
Drawbacks:
Need to practice with expectation and probably some form of meditation. It gets easy, but it is hard if you are in a pinch. That is why it is useful, but only when first practicing control. There is a lot easier and more fun ways to do this.
Dream example:
I am walking across a lawn. For the love of crap, I can't find any DCs to do goals with. I shall teleport somewhere else. Maybe I am close to the mall. I turn around a couple times and finally see the mall in the distance and start heading there.

Seaming

Usefulness in Average Dream:
good for locked doors and getting in places.
Usefulness in Fight:
good for running, could be used as an attack... I'd have to try it though.
Drawbacks:
None really. it is simple
Dream Example:
I am walking down a road. all the houses are pointing the opposite way and there are taaaaalll security fences. I can either keep going down the road or go to one of the houses and I want to find a DC to fight. I seam through the security fence and into a back yard. There is a locked glass door and I seam through and run into a couple.

Three Dimensional Warping
Type:
ID; short
summary:
This is hard to explain, but simply I change the dimensions around me as I turn and go to where I want. Hard to explain. The example will help.

Usefulness in Average Dream:
Good. cuts down long distances easily
Usefulness in Fight:
Good. You can move around the fighting area easily.
Drawbacks:
might mess with a stable area.
Dream Example:
I wake up in my house and start trying to get out of the rooms. I can't seem to get to the front door. Every time I open a door I seem to be far away from it. I can see it near me. I turn away from it and as I turn around the whole building warps around me and I step out of the front door and into the jungle.

Barriers
Type:
Both; Both
Summary:
Create a barrier or two with a rule for teleporting. I normally have a barrier around me and I pick a place to go. I can make one that either stays in the dream world, or one that only exists with one or two or more uses. Two barriers is to make two places that can simultaneously move back and forth any time you go through. Most of these are 3D opaque barriers. Some are invisible, sometimes I will put one on a wall and the wall will teleport me to a different place.

Usefulness in Average Dream:
Extremely, use your imagination
Usefulness in Fight:
Better than any other fighting tool I have found yet, except maybe retry. Being able to set a barrier up and leave it there without any attention is pretty helpful.
Drawbacks:
Not many... I am sure that there are some though. Most of them are visible to the human eye, so you can see them coming. It takes mind power to create something three dimensional
Dream Example:
I get attacked by a witch that is constantly killing DCs and ignoring me. We are in a small room and I create a barrier around the whole room. I don't know if I can teleport the witch, but I shall try. I teleport everyone in the room into a different place and the witch into a jail (she either didn't go, or escaped).

TRI -FECTA!
Type:
OD
Summary:
Lay down and go to sleep. Use the WILD process to set up a new dream. If you wake up, you can DEILD back. You don't have to lie down. You shouldn't open your eyes. Just imagine them open at a different place. More about it in this post:

Usefulness in Average Dream:
FA perfectly awesome. I hate FAs, so now I can just lay my head down and go somewhere else.
Usefulness in Fight:
haha... go ahead and try it. please post your results here. :D
Drawbacks:
Might wake up, but you'll get a chance of DEILD. If you have WILDed a lot, you should be able to just use that feeling and expectation.
Dream Example:
Near a beach around sunset. Pretty. I lay down and go to sleep. I am in a Goodwill or some store similar. Good place to mess with gravity.

Willpower

Usefulness in Average Dream:
Not extremely useful, but some people like the feeling of power.
Usefulness in Fight:
Can be useful, but be careful, if you use all the willpower you have in a fight you might take over the other person's actions and make it so easy that it aint fun anymore (can also happen with expectation)
Drawbacks:
The fighting one mainly. Can also bring you to a whole world where everything happens like you want. More like a daydream than a dream. The AI in a dream make it feel more real, so leave them their free will most of the time. ;)
Dream Example:
I am with my wife looking out a window. I ask her where she wants to go. She says somewhere warm and I put my hands up and force a desert out there. She laughs and I change it to SAO. I think I woke up shortly after. (using a window or something like this will make it easier to believe because it is like changing channels.

Slip
Type:
OD
Summary:
This one is hard to explain, but when I was in a dream once (non lucid), I noticed a small rift in time and space. I can't explain what the fourth dimension looks like, because it isn't something that you can see with your eyes, it isn't something explainable with your words. Basically try to make a rift, but it would be easier to remember one. When you see it... you should know it.

Usefulness in Average Dream:
Dunno, teleporting this way is pretty good.
Usefulness in Fight:
maybe if you are running. I know that alternate reality me used it to run from a fight, but almost every teleportation tech is good for running.
Drawbacks:
Gotta find it.

Usefulness in Average Dream:
Might use it, not really needed zooming is easier.
Usefulness in Fight:
Extremely. You aren't moving quickly, you are simply now... behind them... like an anime. :P
Drawbacks:
takes some effort, but if you get good at dream control it is a snap.
Dream summary:
I have only used it a couple times, so to keep from lying about a fake dream or posting part of a dream I don't want to tell I won't post on this. Pretty simple concept.

Scan Jump
ID; short
Summary:
Use scan and pick a place. After learning scan it is pretty easy since when I use scan I sometimes forget which part I am actually on, so I just choose wherever I want to be.

Usefulness in a dream:
Pretty useful if you are looking for something in a place. It stays in the same universe, so it is pretty nice.
Usefulness in Fight:
Haven't tried.
Drawbacks:
Gotta learn scan
Dream Example:
Can't find it and don't feel like typing it up right now. Will post later if people are interested.

Screw it
Type:
Both; Both
Summary:
Similar to willpower and expectation, kind of a mixture, but a higher one. Mixing them and making it harder and more fun and more useful. I simply screw where I am at and say that I am somewhere else. I simply reject the idea of the place I am, and accept a new one.

Usefulness in Average Dream:
Pretty good if you want to teleport without losing stability
Usefulness in Fight:
Not really a fighting move.
Drawbacks:
takes a few tries and pretty good control over your thoughts.

Final
Thanks for reading. Please try these and tell me your own teleporting techniques. If some of them don't make sense, then just ask me. This took forever to type up, but it was fun to get my thoughts on this in order. :P

Can I make a request, BB? Could you highlight the core techs in bold (or underline) so the post is more speed-readable? Thanks.

Some of those are pretty funny xD I started to imagine you some place to go then saying "screw it" and bang arrive at your destination :P

I like to use a method of teleport that it doesn't seem present on your post, but still is loads of fun. I call it "Zooming". Here's a small video of what it looks like:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zqOVk9YRAo

How I do it:
- Imagine the location where you want to go (useful to review the path towards it), and then start straining the eyes (like if you're trying to focus on an object at distance). Then recreate the path using your eyes (only!) to move. I open the eyes when I want to increase speed/move forward, and I don't look left or right but just make small twitches to either direction to turn. If I to go backwards, I just cross my eyes (can potentially make you wake up if you speed up backwards).
It may take a few tries (first try I bumped into a wall when arriving at my destination), but it's an exhilarating experience. It's very easy if used on the outside, but it requires good control if the farther you're trying to reach or the more closed-space the trajectory is. Makes a good way of training control I found.

I think I'll try your "Slip" one, seems cool and I never done anything like that :)

Hmmm... What do you mean core techs? Since these are teleporting techniques, they aren't going to have core techs. The whole idea of reading other people's techs on anything is to get a better idea than what you are doing or to find a mixture better than the originals. The "core techs" that I use all depend on where I am and what I need. For instance, barriers are the most flexible can get more people, I can change the properties of it (I can switch it from a teleportation to a fire barrier, or make it a trap even without my attention). So this makes it invaluable if I am working with DCs or fighting. Intention and expectation are very normal techs for LDing. If you understand how to do either of these though, you don't really need my guide on them. They also work mainly based on an unpersistent realm, so I wouldn't like to use them very often. The trifecta is the same thing that I do when going to bed, WILDing, DEILDing, WBTBing, DILDing, and during FAs. I call it the trifecta because it works when either awake, asleep, or in the phase. It is essential to me. I used it last night! :P the core ones are going to be the ones that are more relevant to you. if you dont have many LDs i would recommend seeing which one makes the most sense to you, as that is the easiest dream control.

Speed reading isn't skipping over texts. That is scanning, and you can miss key details if you scan over things instead of reading.

Zoth. That sounds like a longer range version of a speeding tech I do. I haven't ever done it to get somewhere far away. I use it in fights when teleporting isn't allowed. The way I do it doesn't seem like teleporting much so I left it out. You seem to use it like teleporting though.

Yes, my dream mind cracks me up when I am awake. :)

Slip is one of my favorites! Notice the 5 stars in fun for it. I love the techs that I learned in non lucids and then recreate in lucids.

These are awesome, never thought of the 3d wrap one, that certainly sounds cool.

If you are looking to impress DC's use the smoke bomb, or magical rune technique. The magical rune one is for sure my favorite for aesthetic purposes. Seeing your soul ripped out of your body, and your body falling down into a dirty insipid pile of flesh as you pass into another body somewhere else is pretty epic.

I've used zoom non-lucidly a couple of times! Only when flying though, to get to my (currently visible) destination faster.

p.s. BB what do you mean by "barrier" and how to you create one?

And what is "scan" exactly? I've seen Hukif use the same term.

:shock: that sounds like fun dutch. I will have to try the smoke or shiek (zelda) method. Could you explain the "rune method" more.

The warp method is pretty fun, easy way to make it around a world without moving much.

Fryingman. Zoom (that way) is fun. Make sure you can feel your body and wind in order to get the full effect.

A barrier is a three dimensional polygon that I create rules and limitations in. Normally with high opacity and is normally purple or green. :P it takes a bit of brain power to make, so I can only create one about 20*20*20 right now or it strains my mind. If I create one though, then limitations I can put that it will exist without my thought and just create a bunch, even overlapping.

Scan is hard to explain. I will look through my PMs with Hukif and look for a good explanation, because as soon as he said it, it made perfect sense to me. Or you could PM him and ask him. :P he thinks of it as one of his favorite techs I believe, and after doing it a few times I understand why. The possibilities are endless. This also takes a certain amount of "mind power" to do. I can only do a small city. I believe Hukif can scan a few planets or more.

Also! I don't know if you have talked to Dutch much. He is awesome. Started right before me and learned way faster >_> he is a beast master. You should listen and talk to him. (I know you are looking dutch:shadewink:). It is always good encouragement to talk to someone that LDs consistently.

Thank you very much, kind words. I wouldn't say I'm better than yourself though. I've just always been good at dream control. I think we're both awesome :D
I actually have talked to fryingman, but I have a tendency to let 5 or 6 PM's stack before I reply. Pure laziness.

Now for the rune method. It's actually an adaption of multiple of the processes you outlined and it can be achieved in many ways.
Template
The rune method, requires that you create a mystical or meaningful rune in front of you or under your feet, some beautiful stuff has to happen and you must witness as you pass to the next location (Awareness the whole way through). Here's a common example of the first step of a rune and creating one

Spoiler for Thanks Adventure Time:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdHNEnQfeAo

Then you conjure up some cool sequence which in some way allows you to travel to the other dimension.

Here are some ideas
Fire rune
This is a red rune similar to a pentangle you inscribe on to the floor beneath you feet using a voice command. The floor cracks underneath you and orange light glows out. You quickly fall down once the whole is big enough, into some type of hell from where you can travel further.

Nature rune
This is a green rune with a tree incorporated. When issued by voice command, you melt, and incorporate into the nature around you and become a floating consciousness. You can then assimilate anywhere there is sufficient nature.

Soul rune
This one is initiated by thought and striking out both hands into the air. The moment you do, you feel your soul ripped out of your chest or back and you float away as you look at you body crumple. From there you may pass to another place through the spirit realm using a method which you have outlined.

So I guess none of these are single techniques since they all require some of the ones you have outlined. The main point is that they are very fun and aesthetically fantastic. The biggest challenge by far is trying to keep awareness. If you however want an instantaneous rune then by all means remove the transportation part.

I'm a huge fan of the Zelazny Amber Novels, they're in my top 5 all time favorites. A long term goal is to become a powerful character inside that universe, perhaps like the son of Merlin, King of Chaos, or something like that, and go adventuring...but dream length realities don't seem to allow something like that, unless one gets to Hukif-levels of awesome LDing. Or unless the time dilation thing kicks in.

Anyway, the major way to go places magically in that universe is to pull out a little "playing cards" ("trumps") with a drawing of the place (or person) you want to go to or communicate with, focus on it which creates a connection to that place, the picture grows to fill your vision and becomes lifelike (sounds/motion), and you step forwards and are there. So I may be trying "trump teleport" the next time I think of it. A minor summon from the pocket for the card, then go there.

Also Merlin does "Logrus magic" for summoning things: it sounds something like scan: he basically sends his magical awareness out through "shadow" (the stuff of infinite multiple realities in the Amber universe) until he "hits" what he wants, then "reels it in."

For zoom flying there's no sensation really of movement (again I've only done it non-lucid), but I view where I want to be somewhere in the distance, "zoom" the destination until it fills my vision, then I'm there.

The biggest challenge by far is trying to keep awareness. If you however want an instantaneous rune then by all means remove the transportation part.

That is interesting! I shall have to try something similar to it! I love adventure time!

I hear you on the PMs, I try to arrange them by how much they will encourage me LDing wise to answer them... Start with friends PMs if I have any waiting, and then people asking me questions like "I almost hit SP what do I do next?" haha. Sometimes I don't ever get to those...

I have only left my "dream body" a few times (except with scan, and I normally can still feel it), so this will be something for me to try the next time I am feeling like it.

@Fryingman
Zelazny Amber novels into my list of books to read.

IF you are looking for long length LDs there is actually a host of methods that can be applied in order to make them longer. One non controversial one is hyu's persistent realms or like we talked about in other parts of the forum, simply trying dream control. Some have locked themselves in time chambers, hukif locked himself in a book for a few hundred years (so in this way he is older than you :D)

That card thing reminds me of this dream:
breaking a dry spell of not sleeping - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Not quite the same, but a good way for items, which even though they were at the top as the easiest, they were still 5 stars on fun because of endless possibilities.

Senses are fun, try to put them all in there as much as you can, it makes things like flying upside down more fun and flying faster. I feel like it is easier to remember the more you get your sense engaged as well. Might just be me though. :D

I had heard about the notion of persistent realms but had never seen Hyu's post on it. There's so much treasure scattered around on DV I wish there were a good "you must read these" post/wiki with links to great posts like that. Thanks!

A few hundred years? ..... uh.... ok, wow.

haha, many would debate that it didn't really happen like that, but it doesn't really matter because it seemed like a few hundred years to him. :P

^^^ It is definitely a must read on here. Hyu's DJ gave me hope when I didn't really have any left. I didn't want to just go and do fun things every night, I wanted to have characters and dialogue and worlds. Reading how his started is also awesome.

I actually found that first and then was redirected to his blog later.

I shall PM you some more things that you "must read" later :D

I would like to see that list as well! Can I suggest a "BB's recommended readings" thread or something? ;)

Maybe in a few weeks. It will be a trip down memory lane for me and I am in the middle of making a couple threads right now. :P

All the techniques are awesome, but i normally just throw a kunai and teleport to its current locations whenever i want :D.

Nice technique minato. ;)

That would be good technique for later. I just have to leave a mark there and I can teleport there whenever I want. :D

Nice thread BrandonBoss!

Apparating is on my list of ways to teleport, but some other forms of teleportation from Harry Potter that I want to try are floo powder and portkeys. With portkeys all you'd have to do is pick a object and think "This is a portkey to [where ever you want to go]" and then hold onto it as you're teleported. Portkeys would fall under the dream items category, I guess

I agree with you on Hyu's DJ, it's a great source of inspiration and motivation. One of the things I want to do most in lucid dreams is go on adventures with DC friends, like Hyu does.

The only one I've ever done is the "Jump" one. I'm surprised that it is one of the more difficult ones, because I still count myself as a "beginner" although I am pretty good at dream control.

I use my finger to draw portals. Usually my finger leaves a circle of glowing light, and I can push the middle bit out to reveal the new location. Sometimes I just see sky, so I have to dive through and fall/fly to the ground.
The inspiration for this technique came from reading Raven Knight's DJ a few years ago.
Actually, thinking about it now, it may have also come from a childhood memory of a show called Fluppy Dogs:
