I want to lead you on a journey where you slowly acquire weapons, armor, magic, and whatever abilities and items you desire.

Now my questions for you are:

How often do you log in your DJ?

How often do you lucid dream?

What is your dream control like?

I will start the game as soon as I get three or four interested people. I am thinking every two weeks, give a setting and a dream task. Does this sound doable to you?

I try to log every dream, I've recently became active again, I needed a new computer

According to my DJ, before I had to stop recording because of my computer not working, about 1/4-1/3 of my dreams were lucid

It's not HORRIBLE, it seems to vary sometimes.

So yes, more people want to join, I have the time, I'm 15 during school holidays.

I haven't forgotten. I've just been really undisciplined about keeping up with it (as usual ). I still have plans to do more with it, but it's just a matter of being in the mood to really gear myself toward it. Haven't really been so in tune, lately, and have been just having my DILDs, where I go along with the content.

I've been so busy I don't even look up anymore what the new tasks are, but I will try to do something again about this. I was having a lot of fun with it I will try hard to have something to post here soon!

I kept my promise Here's my latest contribution to the Serial Dreams RPG. Journal entry of 25 Dec - a Xmas present to myself and you

The hidden treasure of the Town of Denn
(...) Outside I think I can use this opportunity to achieve the RPG goal. So I see some woods and think this could be the forest outside the Town of Denn, but there’s no town around so I must look for the real one, not settle for this weak version. But here there are no holes on the ground, no walls, no doors, nothing I can use as portal and I’m not so good at just opening portals yet. So I decide to simply spin over myself while wishing to teleport to Denn. It has the double function of making lucidity stronger.
When I stop I am on top of a hill over the Town of Denn. There’s an earth road spiralling through some stone walled terraced gardens to the centre of the town. I see farmers working, I see people taking water from a well, I see merchants, etc. People are dressed in very colourful medieval clothes, mostly in brown, green and wine tones. There’s a lot of activity going on and I would have loved to just observe it, but I must not let it distract me or I will not finalize my task. I fly down over the city centre but I only stop at the outside walls to look around into the woods. Where to look for the treasure? It could be anywhere. I decide to go to an area where the fortress walls are breached. It’s as good as anywhere else and it is the place where the forest outside is more dense. But once I’m there I have no clue where to dig. I just try to follow my instinct. I see a stone at the very end of the wall, which looks completely different from the rest. It is whitish and smooth. I clear the dirt from it and find some inscriptions as if it is from a tomb. It clearly doesn’t belong there. I lift it up, hopeful to find something under it. I find nothing, just more dirt, but I decide to dig right there. But then when I turned the stone over to put it on the floor, I noticed some concavity on it and inside it I found a small box. I get it out and it seems made of plaster, because it is white and light. But it ain’t soft and malleable like plaster. It has some high relief patterns carved and some rest of paint in pinkish and bluish tones. The drawing looks like a Mayan design On the bottom right of this strange box there is a round button. I press it and it opens in two pieces. The two pieces have more carved drawings, on the left plaque more patterns, like stylized roses and crosses inside circles and on the right plaque carvings of animals, like a whale, a moose and you name it, floating between clouds in the sky and coming down to earth. The plaques then split up into 5 and then 10 parallelepiped pieces. But it wasn’t broken, it was some automated mechanism. I then started moving these little parallelepiped pieces in my hand and found out they were magnetic and could be put together again in different combinations. They kind of naturally started to rearrange themselves into a different sequence and formed completely new designs. On the left plaque there was now some kind of reddish monstrous creature and on the right plaque a different kind of yellowish monstrous creature with what seemed to be a monstrous robotic dog under his command. I was like “What is this about?” Then I realised there were probably many more combinations of the plates which would explain who these creatures were and what was the meaning of all this and what this thing was for. But I started to slip out of the dream and I woke up.

I didn't need to fight, but I felt something approaching me when I woke up. Something was coming to offer some resistance to my prospection. It's sad I didn't manage to stay longer.

Awesome! Congratulations! You have to open the box, and see what's inside!

I had a lucid dream, back on the 20th, in which I was able to turn into my Djinn character, again. Unfortunately, it had been quite a while since I'd actually read where the story was going, so I didn't really do anything that had to do with the assignment. I just kind of flew off, as my character, to find something to do:

Fragment One (Lucid):
(Damnit. I completely lost a lucid dream, last night. And from what I can remember, it was a pretty good one.)
I remember walking around at night, having just realized I was dreaming. I believe I was in an apartment complex, walking down the sidewalk, with patches of grass all around. There was a little light around - kind of blue-ish, but too bright to be moonlight - and my shadow was being cast, on the large white wall of buildings, to my left. Fortunately, I do remember looking at my hands, to stabilze the dream, which I've been trying to get back into the habit of doing. I tried to think of something to do, but I couldn't remember what the tasks of the month were, and I eventually recalled WakingNomad's RPG, and my Djinn character (which is another good thing, because we had just recently talked about it, and I was able to immediately think about it, upon becoming lucid - which is sometimes rare for me). While continuing to walk, I just inhaled, clenched my fists, and felt a surge of energy swell within me. Looking at the large shadow of myself, upon the wall, I could see that I now had the wild hair of my character, and even though I don't remember looking down, but I could tell that I was no longer wearing my shirt. Having this new sense of power, being back into the body of my Djinn, I lept into the air and went flying, searching for something to do.

There is a lot, around here, that I don't remember. The dream was very long, and had something to do with mutant vampire things... I can hardly even remember what they looked like - only that they were ugly. At least one of them were being held in some kind of wooden structure, down at the base of what I believe was a flight of stairs. I know that I interacted or had a conversation with one or more of them, but don't really remember a damn thing, other than that I was lucid. I do, specifically, remember reminding myself to go back over the events of the dream, so that they would be easier to recall, when I woke up.

(I vaguely remember waking up, in the middle of the night, and being too tired to get out of bed, to write my notes down. It's just an obscure blur of a notion, but I'm pretty sure it happened.)

Badass, man. Thanks for playing!

New Task:



Outside the Town of Denn, is Dragon Mountain.

Fly to the top of the mountain, and ask the Queen of Dragons for a baby dragon.

No problem. Just wish I had the discipline to participate a little more often.

Ok. This is a "must try." Awesome task!

Maybe I didn't explain very well... The box, which was a bit flat, split into two plaques. There was no empty space inside, just these two flat plaques with carvings and drawings. Which then split themselves into many more parallel long magnetized pieces. It basically transformed into a puzzle and the treasure was the information contained in the drawings. I think the drawings were explaining some cosmogony, how life on Earth was created and the god-like beings behind it or something.
Usually, treasures in my dreams are always related to knowledge, not gold coins

Don't worry about that.

Focus on incubating the dream.

Hello all. I'm not really a part of this whole RPG thing because my level of lucidity still isn't where I would like it to be(though it's improving). I just thought I'd let you all know that this whole RPG idea kind of helped me out last night. After reading this thread it got me very interested so I began to think of what kind of character I would want to be. I got a pretty good image in my mind during the day but I didn't really focus on it when I went to sleep. However, just the image in my head had some effect on my dream! I didnt completely become the character but when I imagined him during the day I gave him this AWESOME plate armor, armor that would be way too heavy for me to lift. In my dream I wasnt the character but the armor what laying on my bead. The dream was pretty much about my frustration over not being strong enough to put it on.

Step 1: complete ... lol

just thought I'd let you guys know where I'm at and say thanks for this cool idea

Hey, I just wanted to chime in and say I'm still playing - but I've barely had time to scribble in my paper DJ, let alone posting them online. The new task is brilliant, though, and I've had fun reading everybody's entries.

I had a dream last night that concievably took place in the RPG setting, though, about two thieves with the key to unlock any door. I'll see about completing the new task.

I want to play!

Race: Human
Role: Assassin

That's awesome. Then, you should play. Please type out the whole dream and post it here.

Cool! Please post your character description and a picture of the dude in the Serial Dream PRG Character List thread.

Hmm! Sounds epic! I would really love to join


How often do you log in your DJ?
When I find the time. I mostly use it to type my dreams at school if I don't have enough time to write them in my journal.

How often do you lucid dream?
Its Random. Around 3-4 lucids every week. Sometimes nothing at all.

What is your dream control like?
Good. It stopped for quite a while but now I've improved dramatically

Please choose a role:
Assasin

Please choose a race:
Werewolf

As for description....I like to be a angel/demon winged wolf. I pretty much suck at describing so here's a picture I made a while ago (Pretty much the same as my avatar):

Guys, Guess what? Ok, so I am walking away to do something, I forgot, but this goblin ambushed me! I thought, "This would be great for the RPG!" I yelled, (In sumerian) Begone, Evil Spirit! And it exploded into mist!

The above post happened in a Lucid Dream.

I'am trying to start Lucid dreaming (2 days now =P) and would just like to write down this char to incubate this in my mind and give me incentive and goal/objective to achieve and really want to dream!
sorry if this annoys someone but im just trying to get the will to dream lucid

Race: human
Class: Battlemage (can fight and use spells =P ((oblivion char))

Thanks! Hope to Dream tonight!

That picture is beautiful. When my girlfriend, Angel became her Shadow Self in a dream, she was all half-black and half-white, and called herself Angelwitch. She was riding a winged snow leopard with wings that were white on the bottom, and black on top.

Do you have more art online?

Please post in the Serial Dream RPG character list thread.

This sounds so cool, but I've been out of touch with dreams, and lucid dreaming, for so long... I almost never have lucid dreams. But, if I manage to have a dream related to this, I'll let you know.
