ooo I like the advanced task. frooooosty the snow man! He was a very merry soul...

[FreeOne]

ahh man! i came so close to the basic task already. except that the girl just came up and told me she was lucid instead of me asking. lol

[deathly_hallow]

This is sucha cool task!

[funky_chicken182]

What about a snowdragon or snoworc and make it come alive? Does that count?

[becomingagodo]

Make a snowman and bring it to life. Common where the imagination, passion or sense of advanture. I am really dissapointed with this task. Well looks like i have to fight against water or snow link in zelda ocarina of time.

[DeadDollKitty]

lol attack of the snow zombies! this should be great... i'll get this done very quickly! ~R~

[deathly_hallow]

I wonder if I can summon snow in a LD? I've never seen any. It never snows in my country.

[AlternateReality]

[Oneironaut Zero]

Hahaha. At Alternate Reality. I had to go through the same thing, Deathly Hallows. I've only seen snow twice in my life, and only once was it actually enough snow to enjoy it. I got the Advanced Task Done, though!!! Kind of embarassing, what happened, though. >.> 01/09/2007 Dream Four "Advanced Lucid Task Completed" This dream was about a keg party I’d gone to, last weekend. The house belonged to a guy that I’d just met, that night, and the party was out in the backyard. They had a homemade half-pipe out back and everyone was just kinda hanging out, around it, getting drunk. I don’t remember much about the dream, before becoming lucid, but I think it was just a recognition of being this being the same party I’d been to, a few days earlier, that made me realize I was dreaming. Immediately, I disassociated myself with everything that was going on and tried to think of what it was I wanted to do, when I became lucid. I’d completely forgotten about looking for the old man and the first thing that popped into my head was the lucid task. The snowman was the only one I could remember at the time but, seeing as how I was at a party, it would have been the perfect time to ask if there were any lucid dreamers around, to complete the basic task. Anyway, I was looking around this snowless backyard and thinking “Great. How the fuck am I supposed to build a snowman? Do I make it snow? Do I just manifest the snowman? Do I just manifest enough snow to Make the snowman?” I figured that just manifesting a complete snowman would be kinda cheap, so I figured I’d make one from scratch. At first, I tried just making the round sections of snow appear, one at a time. I held up my fingers and tried a little wizardry, but I couldn’t get anything to appear, no matter how hard I tried. So then, I figured making it snow might do the trick, but that didn’t prove to be much easier. I started concentrating on visualizing a snow-covered scene. I was thinking about everything that I could associate with snow, convinced that, the more realistic that I could visualize it, the more solid it would all be and wouldn’t just be a fleeting concept of snow. I was thinking off everything snow related, Christmas decorations, sleds, everything. Even before the snow, there were huge Christmas ornaments like Lawn Santas and shit just appearing all over the backyard. But I just Could NOT make it snow. I even stopped once to look at my hands and solidify the dream. I kept trying again, though, and finally got a hazy bit of snow to just layer the ground. It didn’t even fall from the sky, it just appeared. Then, “telekinetically” I started rolling some snow and sticks around with my mind. Finally, I made the snowman, but it was partially hidden behind the half-pipe. I walked over to it and, since the only light in the backyard was coming from the half-pipe, the area behind it was almost pitch black. I could barely even see the snowman, but I was able to manifest a carrot or something for the nose (can’t remember exactly what I used, but it was orange) but I don’t think I took the time to put eyes or a mouth on it. Next, I was thinking about bringing it to life. I’d never brought something to life in an LD, before, and I tried to make it as simple as possible. I simply decided that this snowman was now “alive” and then I just stood there, looking at the shadowy white figure and waiting for something to happen. All of a sudden, this snowman comes to life and just starts straight-up assaulting me with snowballs. It was like the snowballs were just appearing in the snowman’s hands, as the ones before it left, and they were coming at me like machinegun fire. (This seemed completely random at first but, now that I look back on it, I’m reminded of that movie where Michael Keaton becomes a snowman and starts machine-gunning all these snowballs at some kids. It was like that but a lot more brutal.) It was so bad that, even though I was lucid, I had to run off to the side and duck and dodge all these snowballs because I was getting completely overwhelmed. Somewhere around here, though, the dream lost all solidity and faded away.

I remember that Michael Keaton movie and I can picture exactly what you're describing!! What is it with all the snowmen attacking their creators???

I've only seen snow twice in my life, and only once was it actually enough snow to enjoy it. [/b] This is quite annoying to those of us who are living with the stuff yet can't do it. But congratulations anyway. (Have you ever seen snow falling? Or just after it is already on the ground? IRL I mean.)

[Jeigh]

My goal is going to be able to do the Basic Task by the end of this month or at least February ones, I've just started LDing and I think I'm getting closer to having a Lucid dream

[Moonbeam]

Wow that's weird I dreamed about snow last night (no snowmen built tho). Well not too weird I guess because we've got a little on the ground here. A disadvantage I'd say to the people in places where it doesn't snow. OK, time to start incubating...

[Jeigh]

Places such as Australia? Well it does snow in some places in Australia but it's never snowed where I live and unless there is a dramatic change of climate I don't think it ever will, except at Mt. Lofty, it snows there sometimes. I've always wanted to touch snow, I remember I once had a dream where I was in my room and it started snowing. I was doing some work at the time and couldn't leave until I had finished. Once I finished and ran out the door the snow started melting away as I got near it then I woke up

After a 2 month break from lucid dreams I'm back, with a long vivid, low level lucidity dream! I haven't written in my dream journal since october, so my recall is kind of bad.. I am in this apartment and I know that I'm swapping places with this poor girl, meaning that her family is my family. I hurry to get dressed to go downstairs to meet her dad. I am outside the apartment, still in the building and I notice that my dad arrived home and me and my two sisters greet him - one of them threatens me because I had locked her in a cupboard, so that she couldn't give her present to dad. Then I realise it's a dream, because everything was ilogical, the place, the fact that I had two sisters.. So more family members gathered round, we were about 8 or so and I shouted "Who else lucid dreams here?".. My mom answered something along the lines of "Behave yourself!". Low level lucidity, so next thing I know, I'm of to the store to buy something,. can't remember what, but I know I was this medieval girl, cause I had a long green dress and I put a big silver(y) coin on the counter to pay. Then I realise again I'm dreaming and shout at everyone in the store "Is anyone a lucid dreamer here?". For a moment there's silence, but then, the main store clerk, some 50-something guy with white hair, says, on an "Oh, ok, I'll admit" tone, "Yeah, I lucid dream, but I'm not very good at it...". Then I had a FA and wanted to go back to the store to see if the clerk had actually had an LD and also dreamt I was being congratulated here. Anyway, my question is, do the less than 10 people in the building or the less than 20 people in the store count as a crowd?

[Klace]

Allright, I think I'm lucid dreaming enough now to give this task a try, and a great task I might add! It's going to be interesting to see what happens.

[becomingagodo]

Well i brang a snowman in the form of links out of Zelda oracerina of time to life. I battled it which was weird because everytime i hit it the thing would come back to together. Soon i choped both his arms of then kick him into lava. Advance task complete. to easy

Gah, I almost had the lucid task last night. I went lucid, and I went outside of my house. I hadn't thought of what to do yet, so I flew around for a while. (it wasn't a very high level of lucidity) As I flew around, I found a crowd of people, maybe about ten or twenty. I then remembered, "Hey, what about the lucid task of the month?" Unfortunately, I couldn't remember that well, so I asked the group of people, "Are there any other DREAM CHARACTERS here?" Oddly enough, some people say that they always say no, but they all said yes to me. I think a few people may've said no, but the main thing I heard was "yes". Gahhhh, so close too. If only I could've remembered. : ( Gah, I almost had the lucid task last night. I went lucid, and I went outside of my house. I hadn't thought of what to do yet, so I flew around for a while.

I did it! I did it! I would have done the advanced Lucid, but I couldn't remember it. Before the dream shifted, I was on a never-ending staircase going to a Nickelback concert. Then I was at a Nickelback concert with LM, and somehow "fell asleep". I saw my Dad, brother and LM. I realised I was dreaming "Brother, we're dreaming!". I tried to get my brother's attention but he wasn't looking at me. So, concentrating, I conjured a lemon and threw it at his head. Bullseye- he turns around. So I ask, "Are there any Lucid Dreamers here," And my brother says "yes" (even though in RL he doesn't Lucid Dream... that I know of- he's so secretive) So I say to myself, "Yes, I did a lucid task!" and then I ask the group, "how would you guys lke to fly?" I hear a chorus of "Yeah!" and then I say, "with a jetpack," and LM screams "YEAH!!!" So I say, "Ok. Follow me," Knowing that it is easier to find an existing thing than to conjure it (I learned from the lemon) I searched until I found a DC by a warehouse. I said to him, "Hi Dave!" and he replied, "Hellow. What can I do for you?" I answered, "We need some jetpacks. Do you have any?" And he smiled and said, "Of course. Let me get them!" After a few minute, 5 tricycles were in front of us. I thanked Dave who had vanished). We all got on the tricycles and started peddling. Once we reached a hill, I started to lift off the ground. I cried,"this is like ET!!!". However, I only did a huge loop back to the ground again. Then I "woke up" and was back at the Nickelback conert. I was upset that i missed a big chunk of the concert, but happy thatI did a task. Then I really woke up. I am really happy- my first task ever!

[Moonbeam]

I think I'm seeing double. Congrats almost Blackberry! That was pretty good I think. You still have the rest of the month, I bet you'll get it.

[Aphius]

Make a snowman and bring it to life. Common where the imagination, passion or sense of advanture. I am really dissapointed with this task.[/b] Advance task complete. to easy [/b] Wow, your passion and enthusiasm for completing that task astounds us all.

[Pyrofan1]

Wow, your passion and enthusiasm for completing that task astounds us all. [/b] and his grammar is amazing

[Keeper]

and the sarcasim is tangable the real fun, becoming, should be how you go about making the Snow-people. Do you make it by hand in Antartica or Canada? Do you start a blizzard in South Africa ( ) and then send out a swarm of robots to mold the ice (just for the record, if I remember this, this is how I'm going to do it). Do you make yourself a Snow-being and procret with a freeza to make some snow-babies? Create a company with Snow-molds? Create two opposing soccor teams and make them snow men, and still let them play? the possabilities are endless
