Thread: Has anyone ever LD'd themselves as a superhero?

I was wondering, has anyone done it?

I assume almost everyone who has had a lucid dream has given themselves super powers, it is a natural response to having unlimited power without pesky reality getting in the way. I have personally used elemental magic, flown, moved through objects etc.

Yes, of Course.

I have not become "superhero" in lucid dreams, but I have experimented with supernatural powers and have been quite successful with those. I have been part of some supernatural fights too. It is fun to be able to use these within dreams that are very clear and very stable, not too satisfying on dreams that are vague and unstable as they just feel like visualizations. I haven't specifically mimicked abilities of known superheroes, but I think it'll be worth a try. I have swing around from building to building using auric energy strings... that's sort of like spider-man's web swinging. ^o^

I briefly became Hulk in one lucid dream, but other than that I haven't been any specific hero while lucid. I've used superpowers like reality warping, teleporting, creating tornadoes, psychokinesis, mindcontrol, flight and phasing. I've done a lot more in my non-lucid dreams. I'm definitely gonna use my non-lucid dreams as inspiration when I manage to get more lucids.

I've always found that it's not that exciting when you try to be a specific superhero, because it's much more exciting when YOU are the super hero. So my advice is just play with super powers but be yourself. it's much better!

I believe I fall in line with this philosophy. It's more fun to choose powers that relate to you. (It will probably be easier to use dream control in that regard, too.) Though I don't see any lucid dreamers taking up the mantle of regularly wearing tights and socking bad guys on the jaw in their lucids, so if that's what constitutes being a superhero then it's (weirdly) not that common. Most dreamers have superhuman abilities but it isn't like being a traditional superhero.

Though there are some members of dreamviews that take interest in taking this a step further and creating superhero identities and going on missions for points and motivation in the dream hero league. I have my reasons to believe that forum user Saizaphod modeled their league after the hero's association in One Punch Man.

I tried different super powers during my first lucid dreams, my favorite being telekinesis and super strength. An evergreen is flying, that I do it in most of my lucid dreams.
