12/11 - This is incredible. My dream characters were TALKING about methods of lucid dreaming - DEILD, to be specific. All instead of at least participating in the discussion all I did was sit being angry that they found out about it. Especially one hell of an annoying guy. I was too angry to even make a reality check and see that my own subconscious was telling me to get up and do something. I guess I can't see some things even if they hit me in the head.
That's hilarious, yet awesome. I empathize with your frustration. I have had many dreams of telling DC's how awesome lucid dreaming is. I should probably do RC's when I do that!!!Quote:

13/11 - More obvious unreal things I've managed to miss. People I haven't seen in years passing by me in the streets, a giant river flooding a place as dry as a desert, wooden buildings in the middle of a metropolis. I'll need to work on my sleeping schedule too.
14/11 - Well, this time I caught on and it resulted in one of the more weird dream-chains I've ever had.
When I got lucid everything was as usual (unreal, that is). After a while I remembered to get to my apartment and call my dream guide (which I did). I got greeted by a lady that looked like she was from the seventies and she told me her name and all. I was extremely confused but tried to ask her for a gift anyways. Before I could she said "I know you're looking for a gift, so I made you this" and pulled a giant cake out of nowhere. Again, I'm not sure she's it since all of the "dream guide" characters I've had up to date were all different from each other.
Next dream was a false awakening where I type all this on my PC, then go to sleep.
In the next one I saw WakingNomad and I did an RC as soon as I saw him. He was leading me somewhere, trying to sound mystical saying "How do you think we got here? You may want to do an RC", but I told him that I already did that since I thought he'd do something like that.
We then spent the rest of the dream playing ping-pong and avoiding being caught by submarines (I don't remember really I went to sleep right after so it's kinda fuzzy but I do remember him wielding two paddles at the same time and wielding them in a dramatic kind of way).
I had at least five more false awakenings in each of which I spent my time trying to memorize or write down the dreams I had, one dream which involves a cathedral, a swimming pool and a lot of jumping around, one where I go to a building marked as a courtroom to find myself in that apartment and one more where I am in some restaurant ordering things they don't have all the time.
15/11 - I only remember flipping through the pages of a blank book.
16/11 - One lucid where I see a rather large memorial obelisk (or something like that). The only things I remember were "Judas" and "october 20".
Also one non lucid where the apartment I constantly visit got demolished and rebuilt to look completely different. Work was still being done when I was visiting the first time but then I saw it completed. High tech shinies everywhere. Also the way I got there was strange too. I was being hosed by some guys on the distance of 100m/feet/whatever and took cover in that building.
17/11 - Area 51: Code Orange entry from my DJ
18/11 - Non lucids about a nuclear war and an alien invasion, and then both of those at the same time. And another one about me being in that apartment again. That apartment has got to be the only consistent thing about my dreams (which tend to begin, end or go through there), and the only place I can visit without any problems in my lucids even when I don't really want to. Also it seems that I can summon things and people a lot easier there.
19/11 - A non lucid where I become rich (somehow) and suddenly a bunch of people I've never seen greet me and give me things.
20/11 - Two dreams
First: A movie plot dream. Since this one wasn't so bad I'll post it.
The movie begins in Nazi Germany, near a bridge. A German patrol is taken down by Americans who just arrived on a small ship disguised as a cargo container. One German on the bridge tries to hit the ship with an RPG but misses. He then packs his weapon and his helmet, but as he walks away he is stopped by Arnold Schwarzenegger holding a pistol. He immediately drops his weapon and Arnold takes him to an abandoned storage container. He then closes the door but doesn't lock it and leaves. The German inspects the container finding several potentially lethal things but decides to leave them and wait. Arnold returns finding, to his surprise, that the German is still there. He picks up some screwdrivers and dual wields them in front of the German, who says "I loved the way Xena used those" to which Arnold replies with "Yea, but in real life they're not as useful"
He takes the German (now known as Hans) to a hotel where they become friends (after the war I presume). Arnold begins making them both sandwiches and calls Hans who doesn't reply. He finds Hans leaned on a fence with a gun in his hand and shot. He suspects that it's suicide but then rejects the possibility.
The screen then switches to a map of america in the future, with the assembly of former governors on a small island.
Arnold meets with the former governor of Virginia and gains access to secret records, where he finds out that several agents and helpers have committed "suicide" in a period of time that matches the death of Hans. He searches (and finds) Hans' record too. He finds out that asian mafia was behind everything and the next few scenes are him throwing (literally) dozens of people who have surrounded him to kill him.
Then it gets weird again and I go lucid. That's the end of the movie and the beginning of a very brief lucid.
EDIT: By it gets weird means that the plot somehow got to that apartment.
Second: After I went lucid I had a false awakening. I recognize that something feels odd and try to breathe through my nose and stick my finger through my other hand. Both RCs succeed and I ask myself whether I want to do something with meaning or just look for women. I decide to do the latter.
21/11 - A non lucid and one lucid, the contents of both are inappropriate for any audience.
22,3,4/11 - Several non lucids wich over the course of those 3 days which lead to one huge non lucid which then becomes a lucid dream thanks to me finally using reality checks when I see that apartment which I'm in almost every night
It started in school, then got to my home, then to me driving a bus, then to a survival horror which turned into a survival horror game, which then got into the apartment. I figured out that I was lucid there and told two DCs which were just leaving to bring me some ladies (I even gave them names). One turned to the other and said "What's this guy mumbling about?" and they both left.
After raging a little I figured that I'd have to be a little more strict (or creative) with my orders to my dream characters.
I walked out, found myself in a huge market. "Have I seen any of these people before?" I thought to myself. But then I got to searching some DCs by a bit more aggressive means.
So I think I got an all-new technique for finding dream characters (for those of you with insufficient concentration to do other techniques). It's simple: Find a dream characters and start strangling him. Then ask him to show you where the desired dream character (or person?) is.
As stunned as they may have been by my interrogation, which was a good change if you consider how they usually just stand there doing nothing, the DCs ultimately led me to what I wanted to see.
Or you could just ask them politely. Ive interrogated DCs before and they didn't really help me. :P
To be honest, the thought has occurred to me (and I've used it before, a couple of times) but this was more effective. Kind of.
26/11 - Today I had a dream where I was in my bed, I made an RC and then watched TV a bit. And then I woke up and suddenly remembered that I don't have a TV in my bedroom and 23:90 is not right after 14:37
27/11 - Non lucid with a false awakening, then managed to fall asleep within a dream and go lucid.
Panicked around a bit in the dream, thinking about what I should do and then decided to teleport to the apartment. Got there and saw a mirror, so I looked down right away. I asked "What's in the mirror?" and someone said "Only the things you made", whatever that meant. I said "Let's find out", walked in and woke up.
28/11 - One lucid dream
I was in a classroom and I got lucid. I walked out and a girl from the class walked out too. I took out a small knife and said "watch this" and stabbed myself so that it went through my palm. "How do you think this is possible?" I asked her, and she just stood there. I took the knife out and performed some other "tricks". "We're dreaming" I told her. "It's possible to know?" she asked, looking somewhat confused. "Well, you know, so yes."
She started talking to some other dream character and it looked like they were having a fight (to me at least). I walked there and said "this is how you handle fights in dreams" and broke the neck of the other DC and threw her out of a window (third floor, she flew pretty well). Needless to say, the first dream character didn't like this so she avoided me from that point. I started creating fireballs (from both my hands at the same time) and burning people all around myself, got into a fight with some monsters too. And then she shot me. Several times.
I pretended I was injured and she looked like she was sorry she had to do that. I told her it was okay and then I woke up.
29/11 - One non lucid
I was outside a church. It was getting dark, it was cold and light fog was everywhere. I went to the parking lot and saw a military guy with a technician, fixing a tank the size of a small building. The technician took a screwdriver and poked randomly at some wiring. The tank started humming and the military guy said "heh, who knew it would work". I got on too, holding a giant radio antenna on the top of it. It went fast as hell, and the tank was so large it actually ran over houses. I assumed the tank was German (they have a habit of overdoing things) and the houses were Polish for some reason. When we stopped, the military guy was nowhere to be seen and american soldiers were shooting at me. I knocked some out and then saw a dog with a knife glued to his paw. The dog attacked me too, and only with the knife.
30/11 - One non lucid
I was watching a DVD of a girl's life (and I'll only give you one guess as to where I watched it) titled (name, don't remember) 2001-2007. Some of the videos were her in a building that looked like empty barracks and sitting on an old bed (military style) holding a baby, her getting beaten up over something she claimed she didn't do, her coning her hair in front of a mirror while talking about her future marriage (what it would or should be like) and so on. That was a weird one.
1/12 - One non lucid
I was leaving the apartment and got into a car which then flew to London. I saw the Big Ben and thought "it's pretty amazing for something that is probably only in my head" but ignored that thought later. Oddly enough my only attempt at logical thought was "I'm in a flying car. This can only mean one thing - I'd better hold on tight or I'll fall out." Also visited Paris.
2/12 - One semi-lucid
I was walking toward a shopping mall. Since I was bored I started repeating "I will lucid dream" while looking at the sky. Suddenly a small river was in front of me and I jumped over and grabbed a fence. I was scared I'd die and heard a voice "Don't you love the old times, when you knew you couldn't die?" and then I realized I was dreaming (or only took control without knowing it). I let go of the fence and spent some time breathing underwater before waking up.
3/12 - One semi-lucid
I was approaching a village. It looked deserted so I went in. As I was approaching the center suddenly every villager came out at once, each of them armed to the teeth with machetes and large rocks. I went for their leader and tried to cut him but didn't manage to. I then tried to break his neck but nothing happened even when I turned it for a full circle twice. I thought "I must be trying too hard"
He then grabbed me but I was suddenly separated from my body. I watched as he drowned me and felt the water on myself while I was literally walking away from that scene. I thought that I should try to scorch a tree using the power of fire as an experiment. I saw a giant tree near the center and put my hand on it. I imagined the tree on fire and it started to pulse with fiery red color before turning dark brown and shriveling. When I removed my hand there was a glowing golden handprint left. I then decided to do the same to the guy who just drowned me. I did so and then I woke up.
Note that I wasn't lucid (or am not sure if I was) but still took control of the dream.
4/12 - Remembered one non lucid but forgot it by now
5/12 - Two lucids, one is porn search lucid and the other is one where I hang out with my DCs for some reason and listen to music (which my subconscious created for me, awesome, right?).
Did find the porn you were looking for? Lol
I was close, as always. I even thought I should stop since it ends up in failure every time but decided not to.
6/12 - One lucid
I was walking down the street and saw a friend. I started to chase him across the street for a couple of times and then he started to chase another friend. They got into a car accident and I dragged the first one away. I dragged him into a house while troops with muskets were marching by. I dragged him into a house and ordered the people there to get a medicine man. I then became convinced that I was Napoleon and when they failed to do what I told them to do I yelled at them "I am your Emperor, and the only thing you must do is what I tell you to do!" and so on. They told me they had called the doctor but didn't know which street he was supposed to go to. I got out and saw the house number (4) and then the street sign (Blatal street?). I came back in and a bunch of small children were screaming. I told them to shut up but they didn't so I grabbed two pistols and shot two of them.
7/12 - One lucid
I was at some construction site and I saw a brick playing music. I tried to shut it down (?) but failed and threw it into a hole that led to a basement. It only got louder. Then I left and I got on a beach. I tried to change the environment. I couldn't. I saw my mother and asked "Why can't I control anything here?", she said "Because you weren't here before." and I asked her whether I would be able to do so if I got back to the apartment. She told me she didn't say that and then I left. I got back to my house (turned around the corner) and there were guests. I didn't like that so I burned them, made my hand longer and tied it into a giant know and then used it as a club and so on.
8,9/12 - Two lucids, one of which stands out - A Murder of Crows episode from my DJ.
