Kind Of An Elevator (DILD)

Lucid 5

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I attempted to do the basic TOTM, but it turned out weird, hopefully this counts.

I can only remember from when I was lucid, I was in a construction lot and saw an english telephone booth. (???) I went inside it and looked out, and I saw a person staring at me, which kinda freaked me out, I imagined the booth rising up and it started levitating. It levitated until I was on a different level of the construction lot. I looked and I was in an unfinished room and that guy from before was there and he whipped me. (???) I moved away, but he continued whipping me, as I was running it suddenly occurred to me, "Why am I running?" I turned around and threw him of the edge of the room.

If so, advanced, here I come

So mine didn't count either?

It was an elevator or a platform?

ok last night I had my first WILDs (two!)
and I was getting sp bleeding through into the dream and I was trying to imagine an elevator
but it was really weird and I couldn't move in the dream
so I guess I will just wait for the task of next month

Congrats erible! Too bad about the SP.

thanks It was so weird, if you could help me, or want to read about it, I posted a thread because I have a question about what happened
so if you have time to kinda give me some tips maybe, it would mean the world http://www.dreamviews.com/f79/please...ppened-104438/
and I'm not even sure if they were "official" WILDs but they happened still but I didn't get to finish the dream

I had a WILD this morning, followed by a DEILD in which I took an elevator, it took me to Planet F-X14, a nasty planet in which robots and cyborgs are trained/created to find and kill dreamers
Here is my DEILD from this morning:

Disappointing DEILD, Planet F-x14 (DEILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm holding still, not moving a single muscle, well except for my mouth which was open, I had to close it or I would drool. SP hits me, my body is almost forced to roll out of bed, I fight that force and get out of bed willingly.
Oh right, reality check, *RC*, aight good. Ok let me just turn on the lights.... is that snoring coming from my bed that I hear? I turn around and see a body lying on my bed, sleeping, snoring. I examine it. It's my own body. Am I astral projecting? Or did I subconsciously expect my body to be there, therefore it is there? LaBerge said something about motivation and expectation changing the dream world, might be that. Alright, stabilization, GOD DAMMIT WHY THE FUCK IS MY RIGHT EYE CLOSED AGAIN, IM NOT GONNA OPEN IT THIS TIME. Let's see crunchy food, crunchy food, I need to eat crunchy food, not my cell phone this time. DORITOS!. I lean down beside my bed and reach under it, I pull put a bag of doritos. I take a bunch and eat them all. Yum! The taste is perfect, it feels 100% real, the taste, smell, texture, even the sound of the crunchiness.
Alright I'm gonna go downstairs. I walk through my door, down the stairs. I see my mom with 2 of her students. Do you want doritos? I ask the two little girls. YES! they reply, I give them the whole bag.
I go back upstairs. I stare at a door beside my bedroom.
"Maybe I could turn that into an elevator, I could take the elevator, and maybe it will take me to my planet ! That way I complete the TOTM (basic) and I can complete my personal goal.
I open the door, and it sucks me in. I find myself in a strange elevator. It's a big square platform, which moves up and down.
Alright, take me to my planet, I say.
The elevator starts moving up really fast, a door opens and I'm thrown through it. I turn around, the door is not there anymore.
I start examining the planet. It's a dark planet, with many factories, no green at all. I see many robots and cyborgs with guns, looks like they are about to go to a war. It seems like a small planet, which only purpose is to create cyborgs and weapons. Maybe there is some kind of war going on.
I hear a voice. "Andres! You're in Planet F-X14! What the hell are you doing here? Their only purpose it to find and kill dreamers! They will notice you're an intruder in less than 5 minutes! Quickly, morph into your Fierce Deity form!"
"Who are you? I can't see you!"
"THERE'S NO TIME FOR THAT, JUST DO IT"
I morph into Fierce Deity, and pull out my double helix sword.
"Alright, they haven't seen you, you see that pile of junk over there? To your right? Run and hide behin... FUCK THEY SAW YOU. Ok, just fight them, you can do it!"
I see about 20 or 30 cyborgs and robots rushing towards me, shooting at me. Some how I manage to dodge their bullets. I remember my sword can throw cutting disks, just like in Majora's Mask. I swing my sword in their direction, a huge blue cutting disk slices through a bunch of them, cutting them in half. They are close now, I fight them with my sword, I find it actually kinda easy. They're slow and I'm agile. I can jump above them and kill 5 of them at the same time. Hah, stupid planet, they messed with the wrong dreamer ^_^. I should destroy this planet.
I start flying towards space, so I can have a good view and throw a blast at it.
I wake up.
Dammit, I couldn't make it to MY planet, or at least destroy planet FX-14

Should have checked this a few days ago :p

I had a dream that I was in a strange college, and they have like a weird circular elevator I took it to the top floor. Also had another dream where I was with JD and Turk from scrubs and we took an elevator to outside lol. Neither was lucid though, dunno if they count.

I acomplished the two tasks of the month!

Basic task - 19 Sep (19 Sep: Dad and elevator task - Dream Journals - Dreamviews Lucid Dreaming Community & Resource)

Elevator task
Still with my dad, at what used to be our home. All totally normal, but then the building starts falling forward (a recurrent dream I had for many years). He freaks out but I think it must be a dream. Then all happens in slow motion and I tell him not to worry, because it is just a dream, but he doesn’t believe me. As the building falls, I feel cool, I do RC and conclude beyond doubts it is a dream.
When the building is on the ground, I get out through some window and find myself landing over a wooden table in the middle of some wood. Over there there are some other girls, one is Vera and the others are some british friends of her. My father is still hanging around and I try that he understands it’s just a dream. I feel euphoric and start singing and dancing on the table. He thinks I’m crazy and disappears. The girls join me and we put up quite a show. But then I see our reflexes on some glass and we are all enormously fat. But I don’t allow this trick of the mind to distract me. I’m lucid and I must make good use of it. I think about the tasks. What is there for me to do?
Oh, the elevator! I summon an elevator and turn to find it there, in the middle of the grass. It is green, the brand is Otis (just like the elevator of my old home), it has one button to open the sliding doors and inside lots of buttons for about 6 floors. But I had previously decided (awake) I would not push any specific floor as I wanted to be surprised. And I was, the elevator started moving without me touching anything. Strangely enough, it doesn’t go up or down, it just goes sideways, like a car. It drives me through the woods and gets into a road. Traffic around me, we pass under the Lisbon aqueduct. I feel a bit disappointed with the outcome, but the task implies not to control where it goes, but just to see where it takes me, so I comply. I almost lose lucidity here, almost wake up, but continue. The elevator stops at some car park and by my side is a 50’s looking car with some black guy inside, leaning through his window. He flirts with me and asks me out. I say no thanks. Then I realise I’m two girls – the other me is also a 50’s looking girl. We smile at each other and we tell him we have other type of interests in life. We’re both thinking of LDs. He doesn’t understand, thinks we’re crazy, maybe gay, maybe belonging to some cult. Everybody around us is dressing like the 50s and then the dream starts fading away.

Advanced task - 22 Sep (22 Sep: Shrink to atom size, reverse gravity and meeting my guru - Dream Journals - Dreamviews Lucid Dreaming Community & Resource)

Shrink to atom size
I’m on a bathtub and decide to do RC. I realise I’m dreaming and get lucid. I decide to shrink to atom size. I close my eyes, because I decided to try it this way when I was awake. It is kind of working, I feel myself shrinking. When I open my eyes I’m about the size of a human finger. I see two huge people approaching and we're on this enormous room (bathroom) with an endless table by my right side, that looks like a tall platform on top of really high columns. I close my eyes again and continue shrinking but this time I almost wake up and have to make an effort to stay “on”. When I try to open my eyes I feel my “real” eyes opening and have to stop not to wake up. Then, when I feel I’m more stable on the dream, I open my eyes slowly, but all I see is darkness. I no longer have body or shape, I’m just consciousness in a dark void. All I see is very faint clusters of white dots, like distant stars or galaxies. It actually looks like outerspace, but I try not to judge the result. Probably the atomic world looks like outerspace.

Completed the elevator task (finally).

I was in a large rectangular room with high ceilings; it was lit by white fluorescent lights. The flooring was made of large dark green marble tiles like the picture below, with a bit of white caulking in between each tile. The walls were the same, except the tiles were darker.

As one could imagine, the room was fairly dark even with the lights shining down on it. In one corner of the room were two steps down onto a lower part of the floor, with the same marble tile again. The steps were shaped like a quarter of a circle, and the corner was up against corner of a wall. It fit perfectly.

In this lower part, there was a grand piano that was very dark brown in coloration. On the wall next to the piano, at least thirty feet long, were large rectangular windows going all the way up to the ceiling. It was dark outside, but there was still a bit of light out there. I became lucid as I was looking at the window, and did a little dance (as I always do when I obtain higher lucidity). I said, "yes, now I'm lucid enough to complete a dream goal or two!"

With that, I turned around and went down the long room, looking for a way to exit the building. I didn't want to go through the windows because it was dark outside, and I couldn't change that very quickly. I walked down the hallway a and saw an elevator on the left, in the wall, which was still made of marble tiles. It was a shiny, darker gray elevator, with a metal plate and two buttons on the right side of it. They were rounded rectangles, transparent white with scratched-off red-painted arrows going up and down. I pushed the "down" button.

The elevator arrived only moments later, and I got on. The flooring in the elevator was like a glass mosaic, made of thick cubes of glass. I could see something underneath the glass which made me a bit nervous, but I pushed it away. The elevator automatically went down without me having to push a button; there weren't any, anyways. I wanted a bit of excitement in this dream, so I expected the elevator to speed up. It did, and it began to accelerate quickly; I started to float upwards against the ceiling which looked like that of a normal elevator. I was now squished against it, but pushed off using my feet and floated in zero-gravity for a few moments. The sounds the elevator made as it was accelerating were becoming quieter as it slowed down to a halt.

The door opened and I saw a room with pale green tiles as the floor, and dark green ones for the walls. The ceiling was black. It looked, in essence, like the room I'd just came from. I walked out into the room and it was a fat rectangle in shape; the elevator was in the middle of one of the longer walls, and there was a slightly rounded wooden reception desk on the other side, sided by two square pillars made of dark green marble tiles. I ignored it and looked to the right, expecting a door to be in the wall, and there was. It was the kind of door you'd find at the front of a chocolate shop, mostly glass with a simple wooden frame around it. This door was fairly wide and let lots of light into the building. Outside, there was a sidewalk and a city building.

"Destroy a city using tornadoes", I said to myself and started to walk towards the door. I got within steps of it when the dream ended.

[QUOTE=Mayatara;1539201]I acomplished the two tasks of the month!

I want my wings! Buaaahhhh!

26-sep-2010

I had a 48 dollar video store tab.
I decided I was going to be homeless. Mom made me a bag to live in, gave me tips and sent me on my way. When I left the house there were two homeless men that were walking towards me, I only looked at one but he was my height *and he had a thick beard. We were walking down the highway on our way to littlerock when I decided to show them the home my mum made me. I reached into my bag and the home had turned into a shirt with the words.*
People
Places
Things
On it, for some odd reason I was walking in the middle of the right lane of the highway. The bearded homeless man yelled at me to watch out and I got out of the way just as a black semi truck was passing by me bobtailing. I looked ahead of me to see the truck driver pulling on his air horn abd honking his horn at me.
I quickly became lucid, a horn was my dreamsign, fearing my lack of time I spun around and teleported to my uncles warehouse to use his elevator. It was a one or two person bluish grey elevator. I pulled back the old style iron gate to the elevator and got in, and once inside I pulled down the metal door to enclose me inside it. There was one button on the door, all it had on it was two question marks. I pressed it and I felt a increase in gravity and the elevator stopped, I opened the doors and I was on the surface of the sun, I stepped out to see the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, it was a beautiful dance of red and yellow and orange lights and I looked out to see all of the planets orbiting the sun and then I woke up to my alarm*

Yo, where's my wings?
Got five days left to enjoy them, might as well get them as soon as I can.

my best friend told me today at church that he went lucid from hearing people talk in real life so took an elevator and everything was dark. He tried putting elevator music on but couldnt do it. If he was a member here on Dreamviews he could have gotten wings

I want mah wings too!

We want wings! We want wings!
[Starts riot]

Nice dream dudes!!!!

I loved the Planet with the cyborg.

You are winged!

Yay, thanks.

Enjoy them. You earned them

These wings are like that black thing from Spiderman 3... they attach to you and you become dependent on them. You become the wings' host... you get owned by them, not you owning them.

I had them almost since I joined DV and one month, I completed this on the 4th... those four wingless days were terrible!!! I looked at myself very odd without them.

this is my first time with wings i shall try to keep them every month, if i can keep my ld count up 0.o

I hadn't had wings in a long time, thank you sir

Enjoy them and focus on them when it is time to complete next month's task! That helps more than you imagine.

Completed the basic task, again, one month later.

Probably not gonna write up an entry, and I'm not gonna bother Ninja with giving me wings since there's only a day left in the month, but this is what happened:

Two people of questionable intent and origin accosted me after I went lucid. Here to ensure I kept my end of the bargain (which I made in my last lucid with some dude while everything was destabilizing), they began their tests. For my first "lesson," they escorted me to an elevator, and the woman stepped inside. Then they took my body away.

Left with nothing but a single perspective and my consciousness, my first task was to maneuver my way in front of the elevator with no legs, no feet, no physical self whatsoever. Great. Using miniature jumps in perspective, similar to teleportation, I was eventually able to work my way into position. The woman inside smiled as the elevator doors closed in front of me. Erm, I thought, as I easily opened them with a burst of will, wiping the smile from her face. My body was returned to me.

With all of us now inside, the man in their pair informed me my next test will be one on movement. As the elevator rose up, my sense of gravity in relation to the floor started gyrating. It threw me off balance for a moment, but I quickly positioned myself in the center of the elevator and began methodically twirling about, adjusting my footing as the spinning continued. The suited pair, standing off in the leftmost rear corner, was not amused. "What?" I state, "This is normal elevator behavior for me."

The elevator doors opened, and we made our way out into some kind of. . . social gathering? Well-dressed adults sat at benches and tables, while equally well-dressed children frolicked about the well-lit skylight room. Sure enough, they had another task lined up for me. . .

Damnit, I wrote an entry. . .

Well... you earned them.

You have the right to show them off...tomorrow is the 30th... so it is a day you can show off.

Enjoy them!!! You are winged!
