Who are you in your lucid dreams?

Who are you in your lucid dreams? Are you younger, older. Do you behave in your dreams the same as if you do when you are awake?
Do you find youself scared to face your fears, do you recongize your inner motivations and find yourself more conscious of how your attitiudes shapes your world?
Do you act like child and enjoy seeing everything as if it was the first time?
Are you more sinister, and mischevious?
I am interested if people monitor your dream self(selves), and hope that you take a moment to share.
:)

Navi avatar version of me, rather quiet and likes to be alone.
+ sometimes mad of power

I'm usually myself, and a fairly accurate rendition of myself. However, I DO enjoy the violent dreams of mayhem and gore, few though they may be. I plan to spend a lot of time squashing those who oppose my will in my lucids. :mwahaha:

I'm more violent, observant, direct, and arrogant in my lucid dreams. As far as appearance, I look just like me the majority of the time unless I've transformed into something else, or I was dreaming I was someone else and became lucid. If anything I guess you could say I'm a more expressive version of myself.

I'm generally the same age in my dreams (though I have been much younger and much older in them before). The way I act in my dreams is usually pretty random. One minute I'm acting like my waking self, the next I'm doing crazy shit. My dreams are crazy and random just like me, lol.

I am MOSTLY myself in my LD's. Though, of course, the things I do in them are different, since it's a LD: flying, teleporting, levitating...But, there is one thing that I do in them that I never do in real life that is possible TO DO in real life: I try to find boys in my LD's :P. Not sex or anything, just find them...That's usually as far as I get :P. Trying to find them. Maybe a little kissing...though innocent and naive compared to what some of you guys probably do.

Oh gosh, Mario :chuckle:

EDIT: And THANK YOU so much for a thread, for once, in on topic, that everyone can contribute to: not answering someone's question. If there were more of these threads...I'd be in on topic much more :P.

Technically, I'm myself and act the same, difference being how "careful" I'm to stuff, but then again that carefulness makes a big leap, so yeah... same age, same body, but being careful dissapears.

I don't know what I look like in Lucids, but I know I act differently. In real life, I can't tell you how many time I've imagined my Lucids becoming nightmares in a split second. Then I'd get more scared because I'd be in the mindset that if I thought about it, it would happen. Then I'd actually get Lucid, and that state of mind completely disappears. I'd become more jolly, brave, and headstrong; eager to try out anything that's on my mind. If I try something and I fail, I either get confused instead of frustrated, or I'd just shrug it off and try again.

I most of the time assume that I'm myself whenever I lucid dream. I haven't tried shape-shifting or assuming other roles yet.

That's actually pretty true for me as well. When I'm awake, I always worry about my lucid dreams turning into nightmares. Then I have a lucid dream, and the thought of nightmares disappears.

I'm a dirty, dirty shisno. ;)

Guys -- don't you think that if you were truly lucid in your dreams, you'd be pretty much yourself? I mean, that's kinda the definition of lucidity -- being "awake" whilst dreaming. On that note, I'm pretty much myself in my dreams -- no general compulsion to do anything out of character from my regular life. Not that my dreams are anything like my regular life, but I don't feel obliged to act any differently.

Interesting thread, I've not really pondered this question before.
I am who I am no matter where my concious mind roams. It doesn't matter if I am inhabiting waking reality or lucid reality or in a non-lucid state.

I start changing when i go lucid.
Thing is that my sub-c seems to link lucid dreaming to movie avatar or something.
+ i like it coz its more fun to run around as avatar than as human

Ah, but that's the thing; I don't choose to act the way I do. I just do, and I'm glad for it. If I acted the way I do in real life I'd never have the guts to do anything in my dreams. I'd be too scared.

I always look just as I do in real life but I tend to get pretty arrogant in my lucids.

But that's the appeal of being fully lucid and knowing that it's a dream, isn't it?

I look like myself in most dreams. As for any changes in behavior, i tend to react faster and, as some people already said, i don't fear doing dangerous stuff which i would otherwise fear doing in real life.

I'm me, with the exception that I have like zero inhibitions. I know that I'm the master of my dreams and whoever is in there. I think at this point I could just boss the DC's around and they would automatically comply.

For me, the appeal is doing things I'd never even consider doing in real life...like killing DC's, pillaging, wreaking havoc, flying, throwing myself off of cliffs, etc. Lucid dreaming, by definition, means realizing that you're dreaming while you're dreaming. The bit of your brain dealing with logic and conscious thought comes online. Difference between dreams and reality is that there are no consequences, so for me at least, morals go out the window. As for my other, non-lucid dreams, I'm very glad that I'm not myself...variety is the spice of life, after all. ;)

Every one acts differently in dreams because our ID has more power in our dreams. So our emotions get the better of us. So i guess i could say i'm more emotional in my dreams.

In my limited LDs im just myself

I am myself, but I look different. I am slightly older, taller, different eye color ( goldenish, and no, not because of Twilight!) longer hair, and it is a different color. ( deep red) and from time to time I shapeshift.

Huh...I just noticed this comment of yours. And, I don't get it at all.

EDIT: Woo, me. As usual, re-reading it...NOW I get it. You are much "dirtier" in LD's compared to me.

In my lucid dreams I stay a young adult male human with all of my general features. However I am my ideal self. I will have a perfect lean build, slightly taller and of course be very attractive. I find that I have tattoos also.
I feel in control and free, (makes sense I am) sometimes in a mischievous kind of way.
