Thread: What Do You Turn Into?

I've been a wolf a few times, I've been Iron Man who knows how many times... Well, I've worn his suit at least).
I've been a dragon once or twice...

There's some others, but I can't remember right now.

in a non-lucid i turned into a leaf... yes a leaf, not floating down or anything, just on the ground. i didnt even look like a one, i just crouched down, and felt deep down that i was a leaf, and everyone just walked by me without noticing, so to them i must have looked like an ordinary leaf.

-Wolf (and many anthropomorphic varieties)
-Crazy skinny blue dragon thing with absurdly long arms and giant wings
-A giant bear (house sized). Not lucid, and didn't notice anything strange until I woke up (its amazing the things dream logic can explain away).
-A swarm of bees (That was my intention. It only worked for about 1/4 of my body and wasn't very vivid)

Definitely one of my favorite things to do. Recently my lucids have been more realistic and I have had more difficulty unfortunately.

I've tried to transform into a cat, but no, I couldn't

I turn into a bird. It's a very easy way to fly and I've never had problems with shapeshifting.

I can never shapeshift but if I could I would probably try to do anything out of the box and a little unconventional. Like an intangible mist or a body of water, maybe even the blob. Sadly the best so far is an attempt at a snake that ended up being a sloppy excuse for a merman. Oh well ):

Edit: Scratch that, I want to be a Grue!! Better not wander into the dark when your asleep, I'll be waiting (:

Once, in a non-lucid, I was a peacock.

i only shapeshifted two times, once into a normal wolf (dunno if you consider this being a werewolf anyway ) and once into a bat, which was definetly extremly funny

One of you mentioned it, but I would like to hear from others also: When you transform into something which have limbs humans don't have, do you feel them? For exampel: If you turn into say a tiger, would you feel your tail?

And when you turn into an animal with wings, say a dragon, does it feel just like your arms flapping (but the wings look like a dragons), or do you feel the membrane and such?

I've felt my tail when I was a dragon once. It felt very realistic; I could feel the muscles and skin moving as if it were just an extra limb. I could also feel my wings flexing, along with the individual fingers in the wings. It can require a bit of imagination sometimes, if you not only want to see something but feel it too.

I just stay me. Ill work on shape shifting once i master being able to manipulate all objects in a dream without touching them of any size material and shape. Kinda like using the "force" from star wars and after mastering teleportation.

I swear a DC turned into a werewolf and something blew it up. Woke up thinking "What just happened?"

I plan on turning into Roxas next LD (One of my LD goals is to defeat both Sora and Riku in a Keyblade duel)

And I'm not sure if it counts but I nearly got turned into a vamp recently in a non LD, woke up just as the blood was falling.

ive transformed into a guy from ffxiii battle arena (i think) but had these two duel black swords

Shapeshifting. You like this.

More than once I've turned into a giant bat. And I've turned into a fly once.

I do not intentionally morph into anything on a regular basis. Although in a non lucid dream I was a woman.

I like to become pure awareness no legs arms or body of any kind just pure thought energy flying through space. namaste.

I normally just do modifications (wings, wolverine claws ect...) Although when i was younger I used to have a recurring dream where I was a werewolf, It would always end with me being shot by a silver bullet. :/

In non-LDs I'll often be Link from Zelda, and I've succeeded in transforming into him in an LD. Feels a lot weirder to be a man in a lucid dream
I was a hawk once, and then a shark.
This thread has inspired me to practice transformation!

I've not turned into anything but I really want to feel what it's like to have an extra limb. My ultimate creature would be a Griffin/ Gryfen/ etc. I have ran on all fours before and been fast but weirdly i was still human, so I still don't get how I do it without feeling strange... hmmmm

It helps to read up a little bit on anatomy. The bend in a bird's leg, for instance, is actually the ankle, while the lower part is the foot, then the elongated toes. Relating stuff like that to how your own leg is set up can help make being an animal or other creature more realistic.

I turn into a firebender. I'm still myself, but i get all the abilities associated with firebending including electricity.

I have a few times turned into a wolf-fox like creature but with no fur just human skin, it was insanely awesome! And if I could design how it looked, it would be a perfect horror show.
