Please, forgive my English.
I had this morning a very strange dream. I used dream incubation/WBTB and I didn't became lucid in my first dream. Then I had a false awakening. So I wanted to do RC with my watch (to check the time double times), but I was shocked. I hadn't any arms, any legs, any body, everything was invisible but still... I was able to move. Then I realized interesting fact - my room was perfect copy of my room in reality, perfect 1:1 copy, so my lucidity was disappearing (I was begining to think that I am hallucinating in my waking life). I tried to move my body, but it was very difficult, like moving something very heavy. I felt very clumsy, I was barely able to sit on my bed. Then I heard a strange voice behind me. It was some dream character talking about inquisitors and travellers. I tried to turn and look into his face, but I wasn't able to turn. It seemed like this person behind me was trying to stop every my action, paralyzing my every move. I managed to see him only thanks to peripheral vision, he was definitely wearing black clothes. Then I woke up.

well, not having much experience in that area, I might guess that you started to stir from your dream (In doing so your dream lightened up a bit) and you started to feel sleep paralysis. So your mind wanted an explanation, being still somewhat in a dream your mind created a character that "paralyzed" youso your mind could solve the problem. Do you experience SP a lot? If so my guess probably isn't true.

Of course this could be some special form of SP (maybye something like Old Hag from English folklore), but It was really little different. I experience SP quite often and it's always very simillar feeling. Body paralyzed, dying sensation. falling down, blurry start of first dream... But this time, I was able to move my body - but with big difficulties. And I sensed something really strange. But I respect your opinion, it's possible. Somebody could say that it was an attack of some supernatural etnity, like black mage... or it's pherhaps some lucid combined with extra strong SP. Well I'm not sure yet.
