Has anyone ever killed anyone in their lucids?

Hmm, I've killed DCs, but I don't think I've ever killed anyone I know IRL. When it comes to killing the others, it's usually in self-defense or defense of other DCs. It's not something I typically enjoy but there have been times where the bloodlust has taken over

When I first read this, I thought you meant that you'd never killed anyone IRL, and I was like, "O.o Naiya can't remember whether she's a murderer? But she seemed so sweet and innocent last time I talked with her..."

Anyway. I killed my cat on accident once, which was traumatizing and made me lucid. Another time I tried to kill my brother with an orange (or maybe an orange peel), but he caught on to my plan. That was kinda fun.

LOL, yeah...I hadn't noticed that it could read that way. xD

many many times. I have been even in war(many times) and took people down with machine gun, I have used knife, fists etc. dont know why im so violent in dreams but always others are who come at me. During the dreams im not scared at all too, 95% of times i succeed.

Believe it or not, you know DC's in real life. Every person you see in a dream, you've seen at some point in real life.

Actually, no. Your mind can create new people based on the people you already saw. I've seen some weird looking people in a dream before which I couldn't have seen in real life.

Actually, no. The sleeping brain is incalpable of creating faces therefore everybody you see in your dream is someone you've seen at some point in your lifetime.

So many opinions being stated as fact. Since that seems to be the trend, I'm going to go ahead and affirm that you are both wrong. And, whereas some people's brains might have trouble creating new faces - and draw unequivocally from what they've already seen - others' minds, even subconsciously, can create new faces as amalgamations of others that they've seen in waking life. For instance, I am a graphic artist who draws faces, mostly. My mind has a very intimate familiarity with crossing different mouths from different eyes. This may very well mean the way my mind throws together faces in a dream is different from the way the subconscious mind of someone who isn't all that familiar with facial recognition puts a face together.

Either one of these theories are possible, so let's not state them as if we already knew them to be universally true. K?

Hmmm interesting ay to look at it, but I'm not sure I completely believe it.

I've also seen places in dreams that look as real as can be, but that I've never seen in anything in my waking life. So coming up with new faces, in that light, seems even less complex.
