Thread: Task of the Month for June 2009

taken from my dream journal of course:

So, It's time to work on that task of the month I head to my fathers room, and he's in there. Sitting on his bed. I was going to ask him a question, but I told myself to just man up and do the advance on first like I told myself. I started heading to the living room, and when I got there, I told myself that Darth Vadar was at the door. After that I pictured him and all his evilness, and then tried to open the door. The door is unlocked, but I can't turn it! Someones turning on the handle from the other side. Someone strong. I let go, and step back, and the door swings open. Darth Vadar is behind it, and there's no doubt about it. He steps in, and says something to me, in that deep recognizable voice, but I forgot what it was. I told him that I've been waiting on this moment for a while now.

I've been stepping back further into the middle of the living room, and he's now positioned there as well. He pulls out his light saber and his red beam comes out, and I just make one appear out of thin air. I when I pressed the button a red beam came out. Unoriginal, but oh well, it's go time. The first thing he does is force push me. I feel it like a strong wall of air, but it doesn't move me at all. He immediately starts walking slowly towards me. I tried a force push on him, and he was unaffected. He got up to melee range, and our blades crossed several times. I was totally on the defensive most of the fight. Parrying each assault after the next. Everything he threw at me were flurries.

We locked lightsabers, and it was obvious no one was budging. Light sparks were crackling off our weapons as we stood there toe to toe with our weapons interlocked. Just when I started thinking about how cool this was, he force pushed me. It knocked me off balance, and I went several paces backwards. Oddly enough, beam from my lightsaber was shortened to a daggers length. He came in at me again, and I just kept parrying everything he had to throw at me. As soon as he stopped, I hit the off switch and turned it back on. My weapon was at it's full length again and it was now my turn. I started swinging at him, and everything was connecting. I hit his weapon arm twice, but there was no damage. I stepped back and trusted right at that computer thing thats mounted on his chest, and dug in. I kept twisting the blade to make sure it got everything that was keeping him alive, and then I pulled up on the blade, and brought it back to my side. His whole suit from his chest to his face was now ruined. Half of his mask split off, and he looked like this guy I knew from school named Vic. I laughed as he dropped to the floor.

Wow, that dream was awesome, I gotta have one soon

The new badges are made, just waiting for an admin to upload them.

A few days ago I was in a regular LD, just minding my own business (i.e. jumping from a high platform with a pool cue in hand that I swung against a pool table on the landing which resulted in the breaking of the cue with a loud bang, it was pretty fun, and I had plans of banging a girl later too), when I thought of transforming the remains of a cue I had in hand into a lightsaber, that reminded me of the task of the month. The "I'm going to do the task" thought was instinctively followed by the stupid "gotta do the task quickly before the dream ends!!!" though, of course instantly the dream started losing substance and 15 seconds later I was awake.

Thanks. =|

Wow, I actually did it! I managed to FILD, and this is the result:

I feel myself enter the dream and manage to get my eyes open. It's still really dark, so I turn on a light and look at my hands to stabilize the dream. The first thing that comes to my mind is the advanced challenge on DV, which is to fight one of the sith. First, I need a light saber. It is really cold inside my house, so I consider putting on a jacket. I decide that probably won't help, so I go outside to find something that can be turned into a light saber. Outside, it is really warm.

I find a stick near the edge of my yard while my brother tags along. I think about our dreamshare project, but decide that I'd rather do the task. I get the stick and, after a bit of concentration, manage to turn it into a red light saber. Now for the fun part. "Count Dooku! I summon you!" ((Not sure why I said "I summon you," it just seemed appropriate at the time.)) I see a flash of robes behind me, but when I whirl around, nothing is there. After sesveral moments of looking around, he suddenly appears beside me, laughing evilly. We start fighting, and I barely dodge as he lunges and almost impales me through my stomach.

After a bit of fighting, both of our light sabers suddenly flicker out. "Hey what happened!?" I exclaim.

He looks annoyed. "The batteries died."

"What!? But these things don't run on batteries!"

Apparently they do. We go in and change the batteries, but he grows bored of fighting me and quits.

Lol, that would be funny to see a jedi changing the batteries of his light sabre

I did the Basic task but it wasn't a lucid dream, does that still count? I'm sure the question I asked though doesn't really count but if it does then I'll share my dream.

Completed the Basic Task. Here is my entry...



June 19, 2009
Lucid Dream 71: King of the Zombies
around 6:00am
DILD

Category - WTF/Action


I was walking down an abandoned street and I had the feeling that someone was watching me. Suddenly a man stumbled out of a nearby building. I walked over to help him off the ground when I noticed his stomach was ripped open. He looked at me and said, "You'll end up like all the others!" I asked him what happened, but he suddenly let out a scream and said, "My chest...I can't...take...the pain!" His body suddenly ripped in half and a large bug-like parasite squirmed out of him (Resident Evil 2, chief Irons death scene, anyone? Lol). I immediately stomped it and took off running.

The street had become overrun with zombies. I dodged the zombies and ran toward a nearby marina. I decided to escape by boat, but none of the boats had motors on them. (LoL) I heard a wind-like gust behind me and I turned and saw Hades from Disney's Hercules. He look at me, smiled and said, "What do you plan on doing once your out on the lake?" I didn't know what to say or do, I just turned and ran looking for a boat with a motor. I suddenly heard a alot of splashing and saw a boat driving toward the docks. There five people in the boat and they were beckoning me to jump onto it. Hades launched a fireball that slammed into the side of the boat and knocked it, and all of its passengers on the shore. I, along with the other people, dove into the water as Hades launched more fireballs at us.

I began talking to one of the other guys underwater (how I haven't became lucid yet, I may never know, lol). He told me he had a device that could kill "The Zombie King." It looked like a large syringe that sucked ghosts into a tube and apparently destroyed them. He handed me the syringe and I leapt out of the water and sucked Hades into it. I noticed I was now on a large cruise ship. All the people told me I had to release the Zombie King off the side of the ship. I did this twice and he still wasn't dead. I had to do it one more time to finally finish him off, but Hades stole the syringe from me and we all dove into the water once again. Hades began sucking people, one by one, into the syringe. I finally kicked the syringe out of his hand and sucked him into it once more. This time the syringe exploded and the entire town (which I was now located once again) was normal. The zombies and Hades was dead and the streets were no longer abandoned.

My dad walked up to me and said, "Good job son." I suddenly remembered the lucid task and thus, became lucid. I looked at dad and said, "What do you think I should do with my life?" He replied, "You should hurry up and mow the lawn that you've been putting off. Otherwise, your going to have to rake!" I laughed because this is exactly what he tells me all the time in real life. I then leapt and began flying down the street. I saw a old western style bar, so I landed and walked through the swinging saloon style doors.

Inside there were stereotypical/cliche cowboys and indians playing chess against each other. I asked the bar tender what was going on and he said, they are battling over land. I laughed and said, "With chess?" He then said, "Those damn good for nothing indians don't do anything but sit around and play chess!" I laughed and began to feel the dream fade. I tried to dream spin, but had no success and I attempted to DEILD. Unfortunately, I opened my eyes accidentally and ruined it!

lulz

I second this, because in that case I've completed them a few months.

Sorry, guys. You have to do them in the month that the task is assigned for

I fought a sith in my third ever lucid dream (when I didn't even know you could train becoming lucid). I totally remember as it was the coolest LD I've ever had.

I was walking down the main street in downtown Breda (the Netherlands). It was a normal walk, but then all of a sudden I became completely aware of the fact that it was a dream, don't remember what caused it though. I saw a lightsaber in a shop window and decided to take it (the glass didn't stop my hand). Then I needed someone to fight and the moment I wished there was someone a Darth Maul look a like appeared (he had a yellow face instead of red). So I battled him using the force to jump real high and move real fast. It was absolutely fantastic! Of course, before the battle was over I woke up...

I'll try to do any of these tasks again as I suppose it does not count if you did it in the distant past

Nope, sorry, you gotta do it during the month of June

-----
2nd one is me waking up and got out of my bed (skip putting on my shirt and pants?) and try to cut on the light. I thought I may be dreaming so I gone in the other room and try it, the light won't cut on. For some unknown reason I did not look at my hands and gone to the living room and no light. At this point I knew I was dreaming and just jump in the air to float but I notice my dad on the couch asleep. That all I remember. I really need a plan for when I become lucid.
-----

Seem like I had my chance but my recall seem to got weak on me. I could just lie but why would I want to do that for a silly old badge? I may try again later...I totally forgot about the task at that moment so I doubt I would have ask him anything.

I will skip out the other parts of the LD.

I walked downstairs to my dad sat in the dinning area. I instantly remembered the task of the month. "Dad! is there anything you want to say about me?"
He looked at me blankly and said "What?" Then I said "Well, is there anything about me you like?" and then he smiled "Ermm I don't know, you're cool I guess"
Then I left the house through the window.

I watched some old star wars just for inspiration I was sleeping with my gf last night, which sometimes makes me sleep a bit irregularly ( I wake up more often than usually. ) The night was a bit disappointment for LDs really, I was very tired and couldn't get properly lucid. I got two LDs still, yet they were cut short. In the second one I managed to conjure Darth Maul though.

I woke up at the morning when my gf leaves for trip with her friends and I still feltl dead tired. So I laid my head down and thought : "Well what the heck, I can still try WILD" it was early in the morning and I was on the mood." Ultimatetly the WILD didn't succeed either but I got lucid via DILD after I fell asleep. Now for the good parts.

The scenery was not very typical for Star Wars, we we're actually at the zoo. I have no idea why the dream began there, but it didn't matter me anyways, so I decided to keep the scenery as it was. I tried to make myself a light saber ( a thing I have never for some reason made in my lucids) but the light acted quite funnily and I chose to make it more epic by creating a katana to myself. The next step was to get Maul appear, so I walked through the brick wall so he could wait me on the other side. Oddly enough, he had a light saber, but the red one like in the movies. The light bounced quite strangely, but it kept a decent shape so I thought he could swing it. I started to rush for him ready to draw my sword on the run. Too bad he flashed me with lighting from his hand, which tingled my body. No pain though. We were exchanging blows, but he kept dodging and moving fast. I focused on his legs and tried to slow him down. While that didn't work I used my hand to make a squeezing gesture. He dropped on his knees and I plunged my blade into him. He just stared me so I kicked him on the head with my knee. Quite instantly after that I noticed my vision started to blur and I was quickly loosing control. I tried to stabilize but I already heard the birds singing outside my bedroom window.

Regardless, it was nice to have a good lucid for some time now. I hope my skills will get back now that I have actually chances to keep DJ and sleep more

This one sounds interesting ima try tonight before june is over but I can only do the sith part because I have never met my father so I couldn't ask him a damn thing lol.

I too have never met my father but if I were in a dream I could still talk to a dream version of him if I wanted to. Would help if you at least had a picture but I don't really have anything like that so I would just have to imagine what he would look like.
