Eating green hags?! I wouldn't even eat a normal colored one.

BTW: Can I do one of these tasks in the same dream as the year tasks?

Large Rainbow - Climbing Up And Sliding Back Down (WILD)
I am looking at this large rainbow in the sky above me trying to get up to where it is, but the higher I go up, the higher the rainbow seems to go into the sky. As I look out into the distance I see this airplane that is leaving a trail of smoke behind it. I am thinking that the plane is what created this rainbow, and that this is why I am unable to get to the top of it as the plane keeps going higher.

I change the gray smoke coming out of the back of this plane to be a beautiful multi-colored rainbow, and then control the plane so that it creates the rainbow closer to the ground, starting at the ground and then going up. The rainbow turns into something that looks like a giant candy cane that goes about 100 feet in the air.

I walk up this side of the candy cane looking rainbow to the top after which the scene changes and I am holding my cat at the top of this rainbow. My cat does not want to be here though, so jumps out of my arms and runs away from me. I feel myself beginning to spin at this point, so start concentrating on the spinning and begin going faster and faster.

When the spinning stops I am standing at the bottom of this huge rainbow that goes over this large body of water that I perceive to be Lake Michigan. The rainbow is like a mist with all of these beautiful colors blended together in it, but has a hard surface on the top of it. I climb onto the top of the rainbow and begin climbing up.

I am thinking it is going to take me a long time to climb to the top of this rainbow when something behind me like after burners begins propelling me to the top. I am now sliding up this rainbow with my bare feet. When I get the top of the rainbow my position changes and my body turns to face the opposite direction. When I look down all I can see is this multi-colored vapor around me that is blocking my view of the ground.

As I start sliding down the other side of the rainbow I am standing on my toes with my body tilted forward and my head only about two feet away from the rainbow. When I get to the bottom of the rainbow I am in a different place than where I started as I seem to be on the other side of the lake now.

When do we get our new wings

When ninja gets around to making them. Shouldn't be too long.

Creepy signature is creepy!

Tried, baby stopped me <.<

Back to sleep.

FA, out of bed, RC, had to do something before going and killing the robot guy, my plan was to do the ToTM and go to the silly rainbow while transformed into a dragon and kill a leprechaun at the other side then transform him into green ham/eggs to later eat it, yes, a perfect plan, destroyed my house, made the rainbow, transformed into a dragon, summoned the leprechaun, now I only had to go from one side to the other, not hard, uh? Well, while I was walking trough the rainbow, it went like this “yes! I will eat a leprechaun! (Didn’t care about the walking lol) Yes! Bwaa…?” Then wake up because of baby. (Already at half the way of the rainbow)

Bwaa continued my, bad to think I had good luck <.<

Some annoying lady started talking to me and asking me questions, and I told her that I had something more important to do. She said that they were going to use someone else to fill in the roll of my spot in a play. I walked out of the room. Into a smaller room. It was carpeted, and empty. I could still hear that annoying lady say something else. I ignored her and said that rainbows would be behind me. I tried to envision them, and when I turned around there were rainbows drawn on the floor. They looked like someone did them with crayons. Well this is going to be way easy....I started walking on them just seconds before the dream faded.

Finally!

Back to sleep.

FA, go out of bed, RC, blow house again, this time I had to do it! But fighting my instinct must be hard, not to eat the leprechaun it was now, created again the transdimensional rainbow and then tried to transform, I was not able to, how weird, continued walking in human form, it was hard to go up like that, but I managed to pass from my house to the other dimension, in human form I could watch the place far better, 3 mountains at the left, 1 at the right, forest in front and a plain at the back, my aim was to one of the mountains at the left, the closest one to a forest, the rainbow was invisible from the top for some reason, only while watching from behind or the sides you could see it, otherwise it was like walking on an invisible table, while going down, saw another leprechaun, but going down was kind of hard withouth falling, so transformed this time into a Walms, went down running and trapped the leprechaun with my claws, then put one in his forehead and draw the circle to transform him in that green ham and eggs, it worked, there was the green egg and hams, I was wondering what it would taste like, but broke one of the eggs (4 in total) and was unable to grab the ham with the claws, I had to try again! Finally was able to take some ham and put it in my… mouth? No, this specie has more of a peak than a mouth, despite looks, ate it, it wasn that tasty, just like that jam that you just got out of the refrigerator but with a little more salt, then it was the turn of the eggs, but, first to cook them, fire control and water made them into boiled eggs, telekinesis for getting them out, then ate 2, the taste was, like normal egg, but far harder than a normal egg, it was like eating cheese with the taste of a normal egg (normal for me is like duck egg…), it was tasty, but I like it with salt and some chilly, so got some and ate it, too much salt was in it, couldn’t even taste it, I wanted a little more, but no leprechaun was to be seen, the tiger was already scared and I didn’t want to cause more problems, so used some grass and made another egg, just then while boiling it noticed that the color was pretty different, leprechaun eggs/ham were a pale green, while grass egg was far more dark, and the taste was so different, also hard to bite, even worse than cheese, but it had a good taste, like chocolate/egg fusion, then tried again with grass for ham, it wasn’t good, nearly like water, then gave a stare to the place, there was a door between 2 trees, I was wondering what it was, I recalled, it had to do with harry potter and how I made him kill half the childs population, (should stop doing that) then went there and was looking how they would kill him because of what he did to the leprechaun, ah the depression in his face and evil side was already growing, after all, messing with DW wasn’t such a bad idea, had to help him, after all, everything that happened to him was my fault, teleported to his side, kicked some mages, used DNA blades and killed some other, then grabbed the boy and flew to where the strong ones where, ice spikes made the job, now only were the students who wanted to kill me, from the ground created some grafitto then put some zombie virus on it and later gave it to the students, now everyone was dead, well, undead, they could not win anymore, in fact they would disintegrate after some minutes, the boy was even more scared now, I left after finishing that job… sometimes I’m way to evil <.<

I have to say, basic task was harder than advanced <.<

I was so gonna find my rainbow...

My first proper lucid in 2 months and someone starts swearing and banging things real loud IRL. And I'm in the lucid thinking "Shut up already! Let me dream!"
Too late. By then I got too distracted to keep hold of the dream. #$&#37;&!!
Sure enough, as soon as I woke up everything went deadly silent again for the next hour or so...

On top of it, I finished my breakfast, accidentaly dropped my favourite cereal bowl on the sink and broke it and then spend the next 20 minutes picking glass shards all around the kitchen.
GRRRR!



PS - That was cool, Walms! I love the way you plot all that crazy stuff as you go along. Are you a natural?

I got the advanced task. I had a couple brief lucids before where I couldn't find a rainbow, but this time I did.


I had been traveling for a while over some vast seas to try to catch up to some other people who had left earlier. I came to a port city. I was with two DCs and I told one of them we were dreaming. Then I realized it was a dream and went off to find a rainbow to walk over. I went into the city and on one of the roofs of the buildings, there was a rainbow coming out of it. It ended on a different building in the city close to the water. I walked up it and looked at the colors as I did. It wasn't your standard ROYGBIV color distribution. It went (from right to left) red, green, orange, blue, indigo, yellow, violet. I could be wrong about the inner colors, but I distinctly remember the red, green and the yellow, violet. I slid down the other side of the rainbow. It bent like a piece of thin pastic under my weight now. I decided I didn't like that and I wanted to slide down it while it was still in the shape of a rainbow. I climbed back up and slid down, and this time the structure stayed intact.

I was with the DCs from before, and we were now going to fly to find they other DCs we were looking for. We flew a short distance and saw them below swimming. We landed on a tiny island near them and they swam over. I woke up.

I started writing this down, but then I really woke up. I didn't feel like writing it down then and I went back to sleep.

I'm going to try the advanced task, tomorrow I will tell you the results..

Good thing you were still able to recall it

Natural? Nah, just started my way when a kid, and plotting is something I do good XD

I thought that I'd finally give these a try. Not that I didn't "try" earlier tasks before.. but this month seemed easy enough to me, but I haven't been having luck with lucids for a while. I tryed this in hopes that it would end my month-long dry spell.

And it did...
All I thought about the night before was this, hoping I would have the chance to do these tasks. I layed down and went to sleep pretty fast. I had a short dream, something about my parent's dog (basset hound) flapping her ears and hovering off the ground... Ermm.. : S

Now, to the main attraction: (By the way, my dreams aren't usually this bland, but I really didn't go all-out for fear of losing lucidity.)

It started out in my room, I was staring at my dream journal, which was in a state of disrepair. The metal coil was mangled and torn from the pages. I looked at the pages. All the text was all fuzzy but I recognized one word... "task". Instantly, my eyes shifted to my digital clock, which had a bunch of green lines where the time should be.

I glanced back at it and it read 12- and some more green lines. I was lucid. Finally, after about a month dry spell. I remembered the tasks to be done, as I just read this thread one day before. I had to try and mask my excitement. But as I ran down my hallway, I was already feeling the dream beginning to fade. I begin to feel my real body again until I ran into the table in the kitchen. I actually felt it, not so much pain exactly, but pressure. It was enough to snap me back into the dream. I did a quick nose-pinch RC to be sure I was still dreaming and ran to my fridge. Sure enough, it was empty. Figures.

I slam the door shut and yell, "GREEN EGGS AND HAM!!" I opened the door and still nothing. I was beginning to get frusterated and ripped the door from it's hinges. It flew to the wall and busted through it. I followed it through the hole. I practically lost lucidity here. Until... I looked up. To my surprise and yours, there stood the smallest rainbow-arch. And wouldn't you know it, right on it lay some ham. I happily ran up the arch and picked up the ham. I ate it and it smushed like bread in my mouth. I looked back down and there lay the eggs, but with normal yolks. I scooped up the eggs and closed my eyes. I focused on turning them green, put all my effort into it. I opened my eyes and they were green. I cupped the eggs to my mouth and drank them like water. I looked down and my rainbow had disappeared. I felt the dream fading, and just decided to go with it.

I'm so surprised I actually got it this fast, really. After a month-long dry spell - just wow. I think I'll have to start doing these more often, they really give me something to focus on and strive for. Here's to next month!

By the way: I'll definitely be more active from now one... took a break for while due to school.

hehe!
I was wandering because everything seems to come so easily to you.
*looking forward to be more experienced*

iadr, that rainbow mist over the water sounds really beautiful. Especially when it hardened enough for you to touch it. I can really picture that atmosphere! I'm going to hold onto that image when I try this task.

Walms, I'm impressed by your perseverence to try twice in a row.

John11, how cool that your rainbow had a different color order. Maybe color and light works differently in your dream dimension.

Vivid, your rainbow with the green eggs and ham on it sounds so convenient. Almost like your subconscious was just giving this task to you. My brain is never that nice to me

Nice job guys

Quite a bit of people completed this already, the month is still young too!
