One of my lucid dream goals is to make some dream character friends I can hang out with in dreams and go exploring with. I think having someone else in the dream you can talk to and experience things with would make it a lot more fun and enhance the whole experience.

So does anybody here have dream character friends? If you do, how did you meet them and befriend them? Are they characters from a book, show, or game? DC versions of your friends and family? Or original dream characters that don't resemble somebody from waking life?
