Thread: Serial Dream RPG

Hello there... I log DJ entries nearly every day, usually at least two dreams for every night... even with an annoying alarm waking me up at 5:30 every morning until Friday (I'll be happy when that ends), I still remember plenty. However I haven't had lucids in months, since I fell out of practice a while ago and only now am I starting back up again. I've been RCing a lot, starting yesterday, and hoping to get my lucids back up. I'm fairly confident that I'll get back to regular lucids within half a month, and probably have some sporadic ones before then. My dream control is pretty good, although I'll have to practice a bit now since I haven't done this in a while.

Once I get lucids, my immediate task will be getting my control back to where it was (getting the feel for it again), and getting reacclimated to it all. After that, I'm planning on enrolling in your Shared Dreaming Class, however I'll still dedicate my lucids to this whenever I'm not spending them doing shared dreaming stuff.

I have a suggestion for a scenario... I had a dream recently where I was a dark magic user in a crimson robe with hood pulled down sinisterly, however I was a moral person still. The setting was like a sinister, shadowy Hogwarts. I went into a room there where there were a bunch of apprentice dark magicians, an attractive female one wanted to have sex with me, however I left her in the bedroom and went to take a pee because I wanted a moment to think... when I came back, two dark magician apprentices had, as an evil joke, turned her arms into a bloodied, fleshy vine appendage, and turned her head into a bulging sac of flesh with spikes protruding which she could still talk out of somehow (she thought that I had done it to her, casting spells from within the other room, and she yelled at me in an unearthly, pained tone), and the dream ended before I could right everything (turn her back and get my revenge).

So, as a future suggestion, maybe you could create some sort of RPG-scenario out of that setting, since I'm planning on going back anyways in order to fix everything and continue the plot (it was starting to look really interesting), and it would be great if in doing so I could be participating in this game.

But you don't have to, I'd be fine with taking part in the forest game as well

I'll just complete the current phase of the forest game, and then scenechange back to the dark magician storyline.

Any time I have a dream long enough to remember

How often do you lucid dream?
not often unfortunately, this might be what it takes though.

What is your dream control like?
well, I'm really not sure yet

It doesn't HAVE to be fantasy does it? if not, I would like to be a reploid

Being a reploid is one of my dream goals anyway, so two birds with one stone

You can be whatever you want, man. Everything I wrote was just suggestions. I love Mega Man. I have probably played about 15 different Megaman games. Some of those 2D games are insanely hard. Please choose a class, unless race and class is the same thing to you.

That's cool, Wakata.

Please choose a race for your character. I assume your class/role is dark magician?

This is actually a group game. I think the best way to do this is for you to establish your dark magician character and go back to the castle as you will.

I'll be a blaster type, with the arm cannon. man this is exciting.

I would be an Assassin, and i'd love to do this, but I'm not nearly good enough at control.

This sounds fun! I want to be an Assassin's Creed style Assassin, with hidden blade, sword, throwing knives / daggers... perhaps a crossbow, which Altaïr was originally supposed to have... Race, human or elf, though in the robes it would really be hard to tell the difference. You already know my level of dream control and that I update my DJ daily in most cases, except when I get exceptionally busy with classes and work. I really hope the Assassin's role is still open, second choice would be... um... witch followed by thief.

This dream last night is a bit more like it!


Drizzt's Reflection

I kept dead still from my last dream and slipped right back into the one I was just in. I saw the friends kids we were with then knew I was far enough in to do an RC. I already knew I was dreaming but this stabilized it and I turned to enter a room by myself. There was a huge mirror on the other side of the room. I could see myself in it and said out loud "I am Drizzt!" and imagined black skin. Instantly I went into a kind of crouched form. I could see in the reflection I had black skin and a black set of hard leather armor.

I looked really tough and felt the hard armor over my chest. I went up closer to the mirror and when I got closer I saw that it looked like I had pretty average face paint on. That was kinda gay but the armor was really amazing. I pulled out my two magical scimitars.

The magic on them looked just like this but the blades looks like plastic blades that had been painted and the paint starting to peel off. I jumped off out the large window into a small corn field patch. The corn was different heights and never taller than your head. I tried running really fast through the corn and then over to my left towards a small hill. At the base of the hill was a creek that was set down about a meter from the ground. I jumped high and cleared it. Then all of a sudden a huge dog like creature came sprinting down the hill towards me. I pulled my scimitars which were now made of steel and looked a lot more deadly. With two small strikes I cut it in the face and throat and it stumbled to the ground. I jumped back across the creek and went down the drop a little bit. I was tryuing to jump back up and heard another dog coming. I jumped up and readied myself as the dog charged me down. I sidestepped at the last possible moment and cut down sideways, slicing the front of its face off. Then a third came running, I easily dispatched it and made my way back into the corn were I woke up.

Nice!!

Cool character, Ferret!

Thanx I was pretty stoaked it was the awsomest dream iv had in a while!

Id love to.

I log everytime i dream, unless its a deild(duh)

I lucid dream every other night pretty consistently.

Dream control is good, everything you listed is a go.

BTW i dont keep track of my LD count on here very much.

Ill be an assassin/vampire, that would use a bow, and sit high up in trees and shoot his mark.

Basically a remake of my oblivion character. He is a wood elf with dark brotherhood shrouded armor. but id rather be a dark elf for this case :p his name is havok.

Human, since that's what I naturally was... hate to be uncreative, but I'm normally a human and it's what I'm most comfortable with, perhaps in the future I'll experiment with changing my race a bit more, but for now human.

And yes, my class is dark magician, although that's not to say I'm evil. There's a difference. I use dark magic, but for good purposes (well, not always good, but... I have morals to some degree, I'm usually only violent to DCs when they piss me off, otherwise I don't bother them).

To give you all a visual by the way, I look just like this...



...but the robes are crimson red, not black. Although I may change the color if I feel like it, I am kinda digging the black.

This is actually a group game. I think the best way to do this is for you to establish your dark magician character and go back to the castle as you will.

Alright, will do.

Also, I'd love it if you PM'd me (or just told me here) the details of your Shared Dreaming class that is due to start next week... which subforum it will be in (I'm assuming Deep Dreaming, but you never know, maybe it's Research, idk), and, if you know, exactly what day you will be commencing it on. Thanks in advance.



PS: If you have success with your Shared Dreaming class, then maybe in the future you could coach us on here and we could all meet each other and merge the stories.

Merging these stories would be really cool! I think if there are a few of us on here and all start to have these similar lucids in a similar area it should be quite easy to share the dreams

Raven's playing? Magnificent. :happybouncingicon:

The sleeping pills I took shot my concentration to hell during this dream. On the other hand, there's such a feeling of pleasant happy drowsiness that wraps my normally frayed and bloody consciousness in a fuzzy blanket of sleepiness.

Where was I? Hm... probably should have typed this up before taking the pills.

The dream is morphing. I feel disconnected, and there's a whole bunch of white space. A DC turns into something two-dimensional. A person-sized poster? A mirror? The image in the glass-slash-paper is still the same man. He doesn't seem concerned.

I'm sleepy.

Mirrors. Nomad. I wander outside, unconcerned with how I get there. There's a lonely cluster of pine trees, surrounded by a mish-mash of buildings associated with my childhood. The dirt has been tilled recently; there's not even a bit of debris left on the ground.

"You're in a forest, surrounded by black-barked trees." I recall, "There's a path. Something left." I pause, trying to remember. "Late summer."

I give up at this point. I was hoping to call up the requisite imagery just by reciting the words, but it looks like that plan's out.

I walk up the dirt path. There's an idea in my mind, that I need to shed my clothing to complete a ritual. The mirror is in the trees. I throw a light-coloured button-up shirt to the side and quickly brush my hands over my tank top. I'm hoping that my shapeshifting won't go out of control, because I'm pretty sure I'm stuck halfway between forms. I'm not in the mindset of my character. Everything is out of focus.

Another distraction. I'm running down an alley, towards someone. Jumping a white fence. Trying to find trees at the center of a labyrinth.

Maybe I'll luck out and get a related non-lucid. It's easier to stay on task and in character. Sometimes.

As for the pictures, I'll sketch something.

I think I'll join in, if that's okay. I definitely need some good lucid tasks

How often do you log in your DJ?

Whenever I want to/have a need to. You can be sure I'll make time to log relevant entries.

How often do you lucid dream?

Quite often. I tend to have spontaneous LDs even when not actively practicing.

What is your dream control like?

It depends on what I'm doing. Theoretically, I can do anything if I have enough time to work on it IWL. In dream, I'm fairly skilled at seat of my pants control, but I'm by no means perfect.

Edit: Oh, almost forgot. Imma be a Human Shinigami, if dat's alright.

I'm pulling Necromancer from my description, by the way. I mean, I haven't even raised any zombies yet. Unless you count reanimating a corpse via Silent Hill dimensions. Hm.

With this many shady characters, Nomad, you're going to have to come up with a good reason for us to work together. Also, just to clarify for anyone who hasn't joined yet, how many people are you thinking about letting in to round one of this game?

@Mzzkc I was in Death Note mode for a moment there, thinking that Shinigami were a different race entirely. Then I remembered you're a Bleach fan. *facepalm*

Wow theres a few of us! This is gonna be so cool once we get into it

Just try it anyway. The worst that could happen is you don't do it as quick as you'd like.

Good idea. The class will be in DV Academy.

I just read about that. Sound pretty damn cool.

How often do you log in your DJ? Everyday or at least 2-3 times a week and post each night's dreams.

How often do you lucid dream? 3-4 times a week and increasing.

What is your dream control like? Depends on my level of dream awareness, still need to work it out, but is improving.

Please choose a role: I would prefer to be a sexy warrior. It's a role I usually already play in my dreams.

Please choose a race: Better start as human.


I'm not commiting seriously, but I was actually looking to join some specific group of dreamers with whom to share dreams regularly. Since I have other tasks to complete, I will not be investing on this one all the time. But I'll give it a try just to see what happens.

Ha. I think you'll round out all of the assassins and mages quite nicely.

I haven't been lucid in almost a week D:

That's okay, I get dry spells too. I only had two LDs in August! Just keep at it, and you'll get more.

Thanks for that. I'm glad people are supportive here xD, I'm getting my mom to buy tension tamer tea, i saw a thread saying it worked wonders with lucid dreams, will post when i see myself in the mirror

Haha. Commitment? What does that mean in dreams anyway? Be as committed or uncommitted as you want. They are your dreams.

I think it's main active ingredient is valerian. I tried another tea with valerian and chamomile last night, and I felt like I was in a dream when I knew I was still awake with my eyes closed. Everything had that dreamy feeling.

I feel like that when I'm wasted.

No problem, sheeps. We're all in this to help each other.
