Your body in a dream is just as illusory as theirs. Their behavior can make just as much sense as "yours." It's about perception, expectation, and past experience (including what people read on this site).

That being said, I consider a Dream Guide to be a Dream Character that is nice to me, and continues to appear in my lucid dreams. Dream guides are, basically, imaginary friends (only you can see them, hear them, and they can affect their virtual environment).

Well i don't know maybe i just don't remember ..... what i am sure is that what i remember clearly is that he stared me at the moment i was trying to fly and miserably throwing my self on the ground ..... and what i remember bllury is that i was sitting in a car and he was talking to me pretty much clearly .....

No, no. I believe you perfectly, and I have also had "zombie DC" dreams. I'm just pointing out that if people constantly say that "dream characters are zombie-like," then it will eventually seep into our dreams (and I'd prefer if everyone's dream characters were as complex as they are!).

Precisely. They'll behave generally as you expect them to while you're interacting with them. Don't settle for shitty DCs just because someone told you you should. Except them ALL to behave just like ordinary people or more. I don't like the term 'DG' because ALL of my dream characters behave like that, save for a handful of shitty ones.

lol yeah i can see what you guys are saying. ill try to imagine mine being nice and most importantly,cooperative and responsive.

Most of the time they're nice, but sometimes they steal your jacket and when you ask it back they fight andthen you land on your head and next thing you know you're in Spain and still fighting
