Thread: dream companion for lucidity extension

A thought came to me last night, and I was wondering if anyone had tried something like this. interaction with a the dreaming world is what helps keep you lucid. So, if you generate a girlfriend/boyfriend and walk around holding hands, would that continued contact with a DC stimulate a continuous level of greater awareness, thus prolonging your dream? This could also be extended to suggest that you create some other object such as a backpack on your back that you blatantly feel, a weapon in your hand if you are into that, etc.. I'd love some input from anyone who has given this a go with success or otherwise. Since I just thought of it last night, and my lucidity was only marginal in one dream, I have not had a chance to give it a look. Thanks.
