Of course. This was expected. An RP about lucid dreaming. I'm not going to reveal much about this one's plot, aside from the fact that you are going to be taking control of people who lucid dream...or maybe they don't! Totally up to you. If they do, they will be experiencing some very strange dreams compared to their usual ones, and these dreams will be the general theme of the roleplay. What it amounts to is up to you, but you'll never know what meets what as long as you're in the realm of lucid dreams.

Name: First and last name
Age: Let's not go overboard with this one again guys...
Gender: Male/Female.
Appearance: Body type, build, hair and eye colors, dress style, tattoos, piercings, scars, etc.
Personality: Religious beliefs, wants, needs, fears, quirks, philosophy of living, etc.
Waking Life: What is your charcter's lifestyle? What is their source of income? Do they spend money frugally? Do they have a car? Do they live with their family? Do they live in an apartment, house, etc?
Dream Life: Give a basic run-down of how your character dreams. Are they natural lucid dreamers? Do they keep a dream journal? Do they do reality checks? Do they DILD, WILD, or both? Do they take B6 or have other lucid aids? How well is their dream control? Do they lucid often? Etc.
Extras: Anything that doesn't fit in the above categories should be put here, if worth mentioning.

Enjoy. We will begin when there are 5 players.

Name: Arthur Acosta (Thank you, name generator)
Age: Hmm... Let's go with late teens/early twenties.
Gender: Male.
Appearance: Physically average. Thin, fit, and about 5' 10" Dark hair, pretty mouth, few scars but nothing very noticeable. Casually dressed, doesn't want to pull too much attention to himself.
Personality: A hopeful agnostic. Likes to live cautiously, look before you leap. Tends to look around a room as he enters, to see if anything is out of place.
Waking Life: A student. Has money saved from previous years, so does not work now. Spends cautiously, as well. Does not have a car, and is prone to biking or walking. Off campus apartment.
Dream Life: Natural lucid dreamer. Dreams are often adventurous, to oppose reality. He keeps a dream journal, but not devotedly... Often going days or more without an entry. DILDs mostly, but attempts WILDs on occasion. No lucid aids. Dream control is quite good, but if the dream is shady to start out with, dream control is very weak. Yes, lucids often.

I guess you're right.

Don't ever post in this thread again, unless it is a serious character profile. I mean it.

Name: Klay(Klayton) Ventors, standard.
Age: 19, standard.
Gender: Male, he has a penis. Standard.
Appearance: One half-done tattoo above his left eye, something of a tribal mark, Klay is rather fine with it how it is. 6'0" on the dot, preferring loose jeans and long shirts to tighter clothing. Caucasian. A happy sneer
Personality: Cheerfully agnostic, eternally optimistic, happy about everything about himself. Live and let live, stay out of other peoples buisness, and when nothing else works, just walk away.
Waking Life: College kid, third year and doing just fine. Average Bs, he's not worried. Always social, gay, but not obviously.
Dream Life: Klay is on ADD pills, essentially. Every night that he takes them, he always has random dreams that essentially compress everything about his life into 30 minutes. He takes them every other week or so. Not having had a nigghtmare in over 6 years, he knows nothing of night terrors. Anything remotely frightening, he brushes off without a second thought. No dream journal.

Why am I joining this WHY.

You're normal people who indulge in lucid dreaming for escapist purposes creating characters who are normal people who indulge in lucid dreaming for escapist purposes in a role-playing game for escapist purposes.

Dear God.

Hey, this looks pretty promising. And by that I mean it'll undoubtedly fail like a sheep on fire. Or some other great simile.

But am I joining? Yes.

Name: Awesome A. Dicksex Aaron A. Richards.

Age: 29

Gender: Male.

Appearance: Big. Not muscled big, but fat big. Wears his hair in this shit little pony-tail, and regularly wears Hawaiian T-Shirts, because he thinks it makes him look exotic. Does not look exotic.

Personality: A Christian, but only technically. Regularly disregards the teachings of the Bible, etc. Wants to be exotic and exciting, and is very bad at doing this. He needs someone, a security blanket, or else he gets angry at everyone. Is really needy, like a baby sucking on it's mother's tit, and crying when it doesn't get some sweet, sweet milk. Or something. These similes are getting kind of retarded. Prefers to live life as it comes to him, breezing through on other people's kindness and hardwork. As such, he has become reliant on these kinds of people. Ridiculously irresponsible.

Waking Life: Couch-skipper. Or whatever they call it. Mainly he lives on other people's couches, I mean. Has had a few jobs as a waiter, but is currently unemployed. Careless with money, lacking in car. Would live with his family, if he wasn't kicked out for being such a lay-about needy dick.

Dream Life: Doesn't use any techniques for his dreams, is a natural lucid dreamer. His dreams are usually bizarre, surreal affairs that probably in the end mean shit-all.

Yay, an RP. Haven't been in one of those for years.

Appearance: Not particularly muscular, brown hair, blue eyes, square glasses, say 5'4, 120 lbs. Dresses in plain colors, usually the first thing pulled out of the dresser.
Personality: Christian, seeking spiritual growth, longing for female companion (go figure), hates heights and excessive speed and noise, very much into corny puns. INTJ (Look it up on WikiPedia, that will explain in depth). Above average intelligence, though it often seems otherwise.
Waking Life: Small, middle-class family, only child, nearing end of high school. Tends to stick close to a few friends, very good in school, attentive, obedient.
Dream Life: Dreams tend to be blurry and hard to remember, but those which are tend to be extremely vivid and long-lasted. Almost always a DILD.
