Thread: Lucid Task for the Month of January 2008

I did it!

This one was pretty easy for me, because I'm sort of into the whole sci-fi thing, and I work for the USAF Space Command.

Okay, so I went lucid last night, when I realized that I was having a naked dream. I was at work, checking on some equipment, without a stitch of clothing. Somehow I alternated between being suddenly embarrassed and not really caring that I was naked at work, but no one seemed to say antyhing about it. Then all at once I realized that I would never actually come to work naked, and I couldn't figure out any way that I would accidentally become naked once I got there.

So, I did an RC, the one where you hold your nose and try to breathe through it, and went lucid. At first, I misremembered this months challenge as turning into an animal, which is similar, and one I had done long ago, but before I had a chance to do that, I remembered somehow that it wasn't the real challenge.

Getting into space was kind of wierd, to say the least. Using telekinesis, I lifted a huge portion of US 83 straight up into the air, to form a sort of ramp that went over a mile up, then flew up to the top of the ramp. Using more telekinesis, as well as a pair of binoculars, I caused my Camaro to speed at the ramp as fast as it could go, and then jumped in through one of the open T-tops as it went past me. (Driving cars from the driver's seat doesn't work too well for me in dreams, so I didn't bother trying it that way.)

I remember stuggling to put the missing T-top section back in place before I hit vaccuum, and then I jumped into "hyperspace," by slipping from Overdrive into Performance Drive, and buckled up. I set my course for a very particular star, visible in the Southern Sky, which was named after me by an ex using one of those radio star naming services, and was also the setting for a sf novel I wrote a year ago.

Upon arriving in a region called "Skierkowa," I met up with a Nonych, one of the native aborignials, and transformed into one of them to hunt wulfbeasts in the Delt Forest. Nonychs are a very tall, intelligent species that resemble a cross between an allosaurus and a velociraptor, and their name is given to them by a character who thinks they look like "Deinonychus."

I only managed to hunt for about twenty minutes or so, and didn't manage to bag anything before I woke up.

Wow, nice one!!! i couldn't even get out of the atmosphere lol it was probably because i just flew instead of using a rocket or an advance flying technique like being the human tourch that would of been cool :p. But all i could do was fly and i verly got to the atmosphere of our planet lol just imagine getting out of our solar system with just a basic flying technique lol am such a noob for even thinking that i could lol

Glad ya liked it!

So, uh, when do I get my wings?

sweet!

I had another great lucid last night. I tried the advanced again but, instead. I didn't get very high before I lost my attention span and saw a truck crash. As I went over I saw a few people in it. I also started becoming less lucid. So I tried the spinning in circles. IT WORKED!! haha I didn't actually expect it to work. I jumped up again and I guess it was the end of my cycle I could only stay lucid about 5 seconds at a time after my spinning.

for some reason, the extra challenge seems easier to me than the first one.

I rarely ever talk to my DC's and even if i do, then i usually dont realize i control them orthat theyre not even real.

as for the second challenge, its second nature to morph into what i see and teleport.. weird. o_O

Ah, another one of my DWILDs (tried to WILD in a dream) last night led to the completion of the basic task. It was of fairly good length, but here's the important part:

I walked through my grandparents' living room - the most detailed, clear lucid scene to date. I picked things up and observed intricacies, worried that the realism might cause me to lose lucidity. My brother and father walked in, and I remembered the lucid task.

I debated which of them to ask, and I decided on my brother as I already asked my father about a previous task.

"Christopher," I said, "What is my dream name?"
He raised an eyebrow and replied, "Your dream name . . . umm . . ."
"No, wait! Not my dream name. I mean, what should my New Year's Resolution be?"
"Oh!" he said with a smile. "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air!"
"Can you . . . clarify that?"
"You should watch more of it."

So there you have it, folks. I would have tried the advanced task, but there had been a lot of dream up to this point, so I didn't think there would be time. Maybe tonight.
