Good advice...I guess I could say I have a hard time motivating myself to do tasks nowadays, as funny as it sounds. Maybe that's the other side of it--I tell myself "eh I can do it tomorrow or whenever, I just want to sleep tonight." :PQuote:

Death of the Dinosaurs
I am looking at Earth with Sacrosanct aka Q, one of my spirit/dream guides. He is a golden man. I am a desert nomad, all in white, with bat wings growing out of my back. A huge meteor hurtles toward Earth. I can see its craters on fire, burning up in the atmosphere. It's the size of a planetoid. It is heading right where Hawai'i is, but, there's land there right now. I scream in terror.
Sacrosanct grabs me by the wrist, and takes me through a portal. We are floating in outer space.
"I thought you wanted to see this," he says.
"Not really."
"Well, you just asked me that. What's wrong?"
"It's terrifying."
"You knew it would be."
"It's all so real."
"Yes. How about we go back, to see how all this happened? We can lead up to this point, and it won't be so, impactful, shall we say?"
I roll my eyes, and chuckle at his lame joke. Sacrosanct rips a hole in the fabric of time and space, and we step through. I feel like I am Ebenezer Scrooge with the ghost of Christmas Past. We are like two ghosts watching the scenes.
We are in a tropical jungle in Atlantis. There are people riding two-legged dinosaurs, like velociraptors. They thunder through the jungle. Something is chasing them. The people are dressed in skins and feathers. There is another dinosaur, like a diplodocus, tearing through the forest. There is one main controller, who is controlling the dinosaur with an electronic pole that is connected directly to its brain. The pole is connected to a device in the person's hands, which has wires leading to a helmet. The diplodocus is covered in a strange white metal armor. There are other warriors on its back, armed with poison spearguns. Most of them are cyborgs to varying degrees. The diplodocus is brainwashed. It is insane. I pity it. I go to help it.
"No," says Sacrosanct. "There is nothing you can do. We are viewing the past. We are like ghosts here, my friend." I stop. The tribal people shoot tranquilizer blow darts at the tech warriors. Some of them get hit, and fall off. A few get trampled. The tribal people are clearly upset by this. The tech people kill they tribal people with their poison, calmly and passively. They seem to have an attitude like a predator hunting its prey, though they are the same species.
"We have to kill it," says the leader of the tribal people.
"No! Our brothers will come to our aid!"
A group of other tribal people, being carried through the air by flying dinosaurs, fly out of huge trees, and drop large boulders on the tech people. More fall off the dinosaur.
"I have a trap! We have to use it. They are killing us!"
"Dammit. You're right! Engage the trap!"
The people on the velociraptors lead the diplodocus over a trap. A harpoon pops up out of the ground, and impales it. The tribal people scream and cry, as the diplodocus screams and falls to the ground. One of them runs to one of the tech warriors, and rips his speargun out of his hand, and shoots the diplodocus with it, to put it out of its misery. The tech warriors fire their remaining spearguns. Some hit the velociraptors, some hit the tribal warriors. The tribal warriors leap upon the tech warriors, and cut their throats with stone daggers. The velociraptors bite their throats, and toss them to the side, and rip their chests open with their claws. Sacrosanct and fly higher. We see a huge war going on in the jungle, as a similar scene is repeated.
We fly to a city with a beatiful white wall and buildings. There are angry sentient dinosaurs outside. They pound on the walls, and are ignored. "We are starving!" they roar telepathically. They break through the walls, and wreak havoc in the city. They eat people, their livestock, and their crops. There are dinosaur tech warriors fighting the other dinosaurs. It's a bloody mess. I am beginning to feel strangely distant.
We fly into outer space. There are strange aliens floating on silver disks, watching the Earth.
"This was not our intention. We fucked up."
"No, the Sentient Ones have free will. They choose what they will."
"We planted too many creatures in one place. We need to start over."
"This will incur a great karmic debt upon our heads."
"One which is no greater than the one upon us at this moment."
"We will destroy."
"We must. The experiment is a collosal failure."
The aliens fly to a small planetoid. It seems to have a long strange orbit around the Sun, like a comet. They attack rockets to it, and redirect to the Earth.
Again, I watch the giant meteor hurtle toward Earth, to a great green continent, larger than anyone I have ever seen, as large as Africa and Eurasia combined, maybe even larger. It's beautiful, full of many inland freshwater, and saltwater seas. I realize I am looking at Atlantis.
The meteor slams into earth, penetrating the crust into what is present day Hawai'i. The earth groans in pain, and roars angrily at the aliens. The aliens tremble in fear. There is a wave of heat, like a nuclear explosion, and megatons of dust is kicked up into the atmosphere. The continent sinks below sea level, as a great crater is created forming the Pacific Ocean. Lava bubbles up out of the hole left by the meteor.
Everything begins to die, starting with the largest land animals. The humans curse the dinosaurs, and hunt them savagely. The dinosaurs are too weak from hunger to fight. Some of the large animals are saved by the humans, especially mammals, but they look disdainfully on the reptiles, and spit on them. The humans make war on each other, and become cannibals.
"Enough!" I wail, and look away. Sacrosanct grabs my wrist, and takes me back to the Biodome. I sit on the park bench by the koi pond, and weep. Raven appears.
"Nomad? What's wrong?"
"I just need to be alone." She nods. I teleport to the Glen of Healing and go to sleep.
Moses Parting the Reed Sea
I am on the bank of the Reed Sea with Sacrosanct and Zaphor.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" says Zaphor.
"Yes."
Sancrosanct nods. Moses is there with thousands of Israelites. He looks very strange. He looks at me. I am a little startled. He has a red glint in his eye. "He's a transdimensional being. He can see into the future," explains Sancrosanct.
I see metal on his head. I realize he's a cyborg.
He turns to the Israelites. "My brothers, and sisters, here and now, I will perform a miracle for you, in the name of God. Here there are dangerous creatures, crocodiles, and pestilence. I summon a sacred wind to-" He summons a wind, as the reeds part, revealing crocodiles, and the scene freezes.
Suddenly all the people change to 2D. It looks like an animation cel is being peeled off a background.
Moses is now standing before the Red Sea. There are Israelites there with him. The men and women are wearing Babylonian armor, and wielding bronze swords. They clang their swords against their shields. Moses looks at me again. He is still a cyborg.
Aliens appear on small grey disks, flying in the air.
"Ah, the Egyptians, our former slave masters! Look, they descend upon us from the sky!" says Moses.
The Israelites fire a volley of arrows at the aliens. The aliens activate energy shields, and the arrows bounce off. The aliens speak telepathically.
"You fools! We are not your enemies! Stop listening to The Deceiver! He has stolen sacred technology from us, and is using it to control you with his lies and illusions!"
"Ah, they are coming to kill us! Get in the boats!"
The Israelites push the a bunch of small boats into the sea. Some of them stand up, and run in place. "I now part the waters!" Moses shouts. He slams his staff on the ground. I realize it's some type of technological device. It shoots telepathic illusions into the Israelites. I see what they see: he parts the sea, and they walk on dry land.
All the Israelites stand up, and run in place in their boats. Moses telepathically commands a couple of them to row and steer. The going is very slow. It's almost comical, but also terrifyingly creepy.
"We are your friends!" They aliens say. "Do not listen to the Voice of The Heretic! Look, we have given you so many gifts! You have no reason to flee us. He is leading you to your most certain deaths."
The Israelites ignore the aliens, and keep going. The finally make it to the other shore, and slowly jog out of the boats. Moses summons an illusory chariot calvary, and the false Egyptian warriors get smashed by walls of water.
One of the Israelites says, "You will not stop us! Now we are free!" It is Aaron. Moses gives him a staff. The staff grows electronic tendrils into Aaron's hand, but he doesn't seem to notice. The staff blooms. Tiny roots come out of Aaron's nostrils and ears. It's horrifying. "We are Here now! We are free! We are in the Promised Land!"
"No, you are in the desert, you fool! You are going to die!"
"I bloom next to this blessed sea, like a beautiful tree!" The wood forms over Aaron's body until his a complete tree. There is a thumping from inside. Aaron breaks out of the tree, covered in sap. He coughs and vomits, and sap comes out of his mouth and nostrils. He convulses and dies. The Israelites take no notice. Moses laughs. The Israelites clang their swords on their shields and sneer at the aliens. The aliens give up and fly away.
"The Sorcerer won," they sadly say.
I teleport out of there. I stand on the Moon, outside the Biodome, and I look at Earth. I focus on Israel. I see death. I look toward Iraq, and see more death. I retch in disgust. Sacrosanct gives me a glass of water. I drink deeply.
"God damn it. Why do I keep doing these fucking tasks?"
"Hey, you're barking up the wrong tree, pal. That's a question for yourself."
"Yeah... I already know the answer. I am glad this shit is the last one. Fuck war, man."
"Fuck war is right. Now, generate inner peace."
"You are right."
I teleport to the Moutain in the Biodome, and meditate in lotus. I levitate off the ground, and my body turns to gold. A white light comes out of my third eye, and spins. Cherry blossoms fall around me, and I inhale a scent like wild strawberries.
Done. That was exhausting.
Great work WakingNomad:) Complete TOTY within the first month of the year... GREAT ! :)Quote:

Back to sleep.
FA, or so I thought, there was huge HH, visual, audio, everything, did a RC just in case, but couldn’t tell apart if it was the HH or me, anyway got to some random forest, that meant it was me, and that it was a dream, what should I do now? To be trapped in a spell, how pathetic, went to look for people, but there was nobody to be found, used scan on the whole planet, and found no human life, there was, however, an immortal, a vestige of humanoid who could use magic and a race that looked similar, I could recognize this scenario, that movie, I didn’t like it that much, really, but one way or the other, it was time to go and kill the immortal, he was in direct fault of this, and the end of humanity, now that I was in the future, should as well watch it, right?
So cheap, there was a huge earthquake and some volcanoes going around and people were stupid enough to just do nothing, pathetic! I was so disappointed, at least made the task though, that’s better than nothing.
Damn Nomad! Nice job! Time for me to get off my ass and start the task of the year! Btw, excellent choices Ninja. I look forward to them.
Oh, and What??Me??, mad props for the Belldandy sig. Nice!
that was fun. i finish all the tasks but mantaining lucidity was a bit hard. let me give you some high lights. when moses parted the red sea i walked throught it with him then in the rome i beat the fighter and then did high fives all around. also i got in a fight with armstrong and the end of the world was god beating the hell out of the devil. all of this was fun and took a while but i may want to do it again:shadewink:

08.02.2010Gladiatores Pugnant! (WILD)
NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID
This one was actually made up of the initial WILD, then countless DEILDs, but for the sake of neatness I'll keep them all in the same entry.
I was sleepy this morning, so I tried to WILD. I lay on my back for, I'd say, 25 minutes before switching to my right side. It was only about 5 more minutes after that before I got into a dream.
I had a FA in my old house. It was a sunny day, and the curtains were open in my bedroom. I went straight to the window, opened it, and climbed out. Standing on the roof, I looked up and down the street, just taking everything in. It really amazes me sometimes. I was still wearing my dressing gown, so I took it off, then floated down to my front garden. I got distracted by taking a detour round the side of the house, finding it strange that the side gate was open. I floated back onto the roof, and sat down with my back against the chimney. I could feel the rough bricks against my back very clearly. After some pondering, I remembered the task of the year. I had been thinking about it before I got to SP. With a gladiator fight in mind, I thought about a way to change scene to Ancient Rome. I jumped off the roof and landed in the back garden. A big red plastic bucket (about 3 feet in diameter) I used to own was sitting in the long grass near the back fence. I approached it, trying to convince myself it was one of the pipes from Super Mario which would drop me out in the sky above the Colloseum. There was water in the bucket. Without hesitation I dunked my head in, and the rest of my body followed. It was (as always) a bit surprising to find I could breathe underwater. On the bottom of the bucket were some stones. I focused on one which was vaugely Colosseum-shaped lol and tried to imagine that it was the Colosseum- I was just far above it. I tried to think of all the other stones as buildings and the spaces between them as roads. I wasn't getting anywhere, so I shut my eyes and did a somersault, hoping that when I opened my eyes, I would be falling towards the Colosseum. As I did this, I shouted,
"Rome!" Unfortunately, I woke myself up.
I wasn't quite awake, but was back in my body seeing nothing but blackness and feeling SP. This has come up a few times before- I like to think of it as the "loading program" for DEILD's, like from The Matrix.
I had a view of a scene for a second, like I was looking through a peephole. I concentrated on the sand on the floor of the Colosseum (think Gladiator), rubbed my hands in it, and soon felt integrated enough to stand up. I was in the Colosseum all right, but it was night time, and the floor area was slightly smaller than I expected. There were people standing all around me, looking up at the crowd. They were all carrying weapons of some kind, but not much armour. The most anyone had was a helmet.
http://www.uky.edu/AS/Classics/gladiator.jpg
Suddenly, a klaxon sounded. It was a really horrific noise, lasting two seconds, coming from some unearthly instrument. At its sound, the gladiators in the arena drew their weapons and charged at each other. The crowd roared. I reached down by my sides and pulled out two scimitars.
"Haah!" I laughed. I was still in my dressing gown. I ran forward into the nearest bunch of fighters, slashing wildly. I don't even know if I got anybody, but after a minute the survivors ran off.
I paused to indulge in some victorious sword-twirling, but dropped one. I sheepishly threw the other one down beside it, hoping the crowd would think it was deliberate.
I had a FA then, in my bedroom. My TV was switched on, which is unusual becuase it has no aerial input, and the DVD player doesn't work. I sat up in bed, too aware of this oddity to be fooled into non-lucidity. I wanted to examine what was on carefully, to determine whether or not I was hearing the TV from downstairs or something. The first thing was an ad for PKR. The ad's audio claimed that it was PokerStars, but I recognised the sims-like graphics of PKR. It was one of those ads which makes online-poker look really cool. One female player put in a big raise, and the grey-haired dude to her left raised his eyebrow suspiciously before confidently calling her bluff to win the hand. Then Glee came on, a show I've never really been interested in. One of the main characters was sleeping on a pile of bedclothes on the floor. Her friend came in and woke her up. What convinced me that I was not in fact hearing the TV from downstairs, was that she called the main main character "Glee". I knew this to be bullshit, since the name "Glee" comes from "Glee Club"- which I understand to be a nerdy persuit in High Shool. (Thanks to Weird Al)
http://img40.imagefra.me/img/img40/2...um_9f20186.jpg
I half-woke up again, and visualised being back in front of the TV, drumming on the stand. I ended up a few feet back from the TV, with an awesome redhead sitting on my lap. She showed me a good time.
After another DEILD, I found myself lounging on my bed talking to some friends. Well, I tried to talk but couldn't make any noise without (I reckoned) waking myself up. The curtains were closed, giving the room an orangey glow. I skipped forward and wound up in the back seat of a car with three of my friends. I tried to get a certain hot girl I know to appear beside me, but I only managed to spawn an ugly 15 yr old girl. :S I don't think I was 100% lucid here, because I got a "false memory" implanted somehow. Apparently I had just been camping with this group of friends.
I woke up yet again, and my whole body felt seriously heavy, like it was made of stone. I think I'm getting better at holding on to dreams. To get back in again, I "felt" myself typing random words, which just formed up in my subconsious. Some of them were complete jibberish, and they certainly didn't make any sense as a sentence. However I distinctly remember typing the word "Personality".
In another DEILD, I heard a very distinctive, high-pitched whine. It seemed to be coming from my brain itself, and felt like a vibration. Hard to describe. I focused on it until it became almost deafening, and made me extremely dizzy. I found myself in the living room, and decided to go visit my friend Lucy from down the street. I ran and headbutt-dived through the front window as I did once before, and headed out of the driveway. I accidentally knocked my shin against the wall on the way out which actually hurt a bit!
I was eventually woken up by someone knocking the door downstairs. I heard it from within the dream, which made me focus too much on the waking world. When I awoke, I found a massive pool of drool under my face.
Here's number 2...
I tried the "beat Neill Armstrong down the ladder" one today as well but failed. :P I'll post it for the lulz anyway.Quote:
10.02.2010End of The World (MILD)
NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID
I was thinking about the task of the year before I went to sleep, particularly the "End of the World" part. I wondered how I could logistically get to the future and have the world end. This caused my first (uninentional) MILD. I couldn't think of anything lying in bed, but luckily my subconscious did the work for me. :)
The earliest part of the dream I remember is watching the planets revolving around the sun. They were nowhere near to scale- all the planets were far too big and far too close to the sun, but what the hell. I looked at the Earth, and out of the corner of my eye (if I had eyes, I can't recall any sort of body), saw a huge chunk of rock drifting closer and closer. It wasn't a conventional comet- what it reminded me of was a shot of a Star Destroyer from the start of one of the older Star Wars movies. It was that kind of flat-ish shape and very long. Far larger than the Earth. I became very alarmed.
"Didn't the people on Earth know about this? How could they miss it? Ohhhhh..." I became lucid when I realised what was about to happen and remembered the task. From my vantage point, I watched with a kind of morbid interest crossed with dread. To my surprise, instead of obliterating my beloved planet, the Star Destroyer-shaped comet glanced off the Earth's atmosphere. It hit the atmosphere at an angle of about 10 degrees, and just "bounced off", now floating in the direction of the sun. A strange side-effect of the near miss was to knock the Earth out of its normal orbit. The "bounce" effect had some sort of recoil. It didn't make an enormous difference to the Earth's orbit, it was now just circling a bit closer to the sun.
I vaugely wondered,
"If this is the end of the world, what's going on?" I glanced over at the sun just in time to see it envelop the comet. I felt that something awful was about to happen, and right then, a solar flare started to form. Its arc covered the entire face of the sun on the side the comet had just entered, and built in intensity until it formed a circular shape larger than the sun itself. Then it was released. The wave of orange light flew directly at the Earth in its new orbit. As it hit, my POV zoomed in on Australia, of all places. I could see Sydney's distincive opera house, and the sea beyond. The wall of orange light blasted into the sea in sections. One blast would hit the sea, instantly vaporize all the water, leaving a gaping chasm surrounded by water. These chasms were only visible for a split second before the surrounding water filled them in. On land, it was a similar story. Buildings, roads and uninhabited areas were obliterated, entirely burning off the outer layer of the Earth's crust, bit by bit.
http://chattahbox.com/images/2009/01/solar_storm.jpg
For the rest of the dream, I lost lucidity and became one of the few people left alive on a deserted island East of Australia.
Wow, that's an awesome apocolypse.
I tried the moon one, here's the effort!
I'll get it next time!Quote:
10.02.2010Attempted Astronaut (WILD)
NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID
My very first evening-WILD! The only reason it worked (I reckon) was because I was sleep-deprived from the night before.
I had a false awakening in a graveyard, weirdly. I stood up and checked my hand to find several extra fingers. I nodded to myself, satisfied. There was a tall, black metal fence surrounding the graveyard, and I wanted to get outside of it. I could see a city with skyscrapers in the distance, and fancied exploring. I took a running jump and glided up over the fence, landing on top of a bus shelter outside. I stopped and thought for a second, and remembered the task of the year. The city seemed like the kind of place I might be able to hitch a ride to space from, with the view to beating Neill Armstrong down the ladder to be first on the moon. The city centre was definately uphill from my position, so I flew at waist-height up the steepest street I could find, going in the right direction. I flew through a massive crowd of people, all heading the same way. I noticed my youngest brother among the crowd. He seemed to be getting overwhelmed by the masses, so I picked him up and put him on my back. The crowd was getting thicker and thicker as I came close to the building at the top of the street, and I eventually found them all trying to cram into an elevator at the base of a tower. I looked at it, and thought it looked like it could be the kind of elevator that lifts astronauts up to the door of their rocket, so I decided to get on it.
"Stand back!" I shouted. "Astronauts only!" Smirking to myself, I wondered if this ridiculous authoritative strategy would work.
I never had a chance to find out, as I had a false awakening. I honestly thought it was for real, until I looked around. Turns out, I was lying on a sofa, under a blanket, cuddling a girl I hadn't seen in years. I tried to get up to see where I was, but she wrapped her arms around me very tightly and I couldn't escape.
I struggled for a bit, and had another couple of false awakenings...
Completed the Gladiator Fight Task, here is my entry:

Lucid Dream 154: They Call Me Kratos
around 3:00am
DILD
Category - Task/Action
http://i528.photobucket.com/albums/d...os_blades3.jpg
I was in some kind of thrift store and I was looking through some old SNES and NES games. I had found quite a few rarities for dirt cheap and I was getting excited. I looked through the games I was about to buy and they had all changed. Many of them were now common sports games. I went back to the bin and began to search for the games I thought I had in my hand already. After searching for a bit and having several games change again, I started to get suspicious. I slowly raised my hand and performed a nose pinch RC. I was indeed dreaming.
I immediately wanted to complete one of the Tasks of the Year. I decided to attempt the Gladiator fight. I took flight and began searching for the Colosseum. After flying over a few mountains I saw a large structure in the background. As I approached I could hear a crowd roaring and cheering from within the walls. I landed in front of the colosseum and walked inside. I was in a large area within the walls of the collosseum. It was just like a football game. There were concession stands set up everywhere, but the food was very different. One stand read, "Fried Bat on a Stick" another said, "The Crumpet Stop." I didn't want to just fly into the arena and begin fighting, so I walked around until I found some stone steps that led into a deep dark dungeon.
There were many slaves locked in the dungeon and I walked in smiling. One of them asked, "Who the f*** are you?" I turned invisible and walked through the wall and into the cell with the other prisoners. I reappeared and they were all speechless. I spoke, "I am a god in this world. I have come to fight in the games as a prisoner." One of the prisoners got excited and said, "You are here to save us? We are saved!" I laughed a deep evil laugh and said, "I came here to fight. Your life means nothing to me." They man began to whine and beg, "But, you are a god right? You can do anything. Help us get out of here...please!" He then grabbed my arm. I quickly straightened out my arm, spread my fingers, and summoned a large machete. In a flash I swung my arm and removed the prisoners head from his shoulders.
The other prisoners backed away and I spoke once again, "Get on my nerves or in my way, and you'll end up like this one." I then picked up his head by his hair and held it out in front of me. The prisoners all looked terrified. I smirked and then tossed the head to one of the other prisoners and said, "Here you go scruffy." He caught the head, dropped it, and began to cry softly in the corner. A couple guards had now showed up and they began yelling into the cell telling us to shut the f*** up and get ready to die. They opened up the doors and we all got into a single file line and followed them into the stadium.
As soon as we entered the stadium, I slit one of the guards throat and stole his spear. I then launched the spear across the arena. There were many "executioners" (people we were supposed to fight) standing on the other side of the arena. My spear soared through the air and pierced the heart of the largest executioner in the arena. The giant muscular man dropped to his knees and his cow/bull skull head gear fell to the ground. The crowd roared and I took off running to the center of the arena. I screamed and held my arms wide. A huge fountain of fire and debris exploded under my feet and lifted me into the air. I floated atop the fountain of fire and began launching flaming boulders/debris at the other executioners. I killed a few this way and landed back on the ground. The fire fountain was now gone.
Many people in the crowd were shouting, "Who are you?", "What is your name?", "What shall we call you!" I stood tall and shouted, "I am Kratos!" I crowd began chanting "Kratos...Kratos...Kratos!" I now noticed I had Kratos' Blades of Chaos attached to my arms. I began the massacre. After killing off all the executioners with attacks straight out of the game (God of War), I began to hunt down the other prisoners. The arena was a blood bath and I think the crowd was now scared for their own safety. The czar stood and stared down at me. The crowd started chanting, "Kill him...kill him...kill him!" The czar gave me a thumbs down and I began to laugh.
Trained soldiers entered the arena and I slayed them all within seconds. I then took flight and began lauching fireballs at the crowd, setting groups of them ablaze. I then landed in the crowd and began slicing them up. The crowd tried to run and some even tried to fight. With relative ease, I wiped out the entire arena which was now a large bowl of blood. I looked into the "luxury box" and saw the czar staring down at me. He then laughed and took flight. He said, "So you thin you are the only lucid one in this land?" He began flying around attacking me. I was on the defensive and kept deflecting his attacks, but he kept getting closer and closer to landing one. Finally I dodged one of his attacks and severed his arm. He flew high above me, laughed, and his arm regenerated. He began to speak, "You cannot kill me so easily, I am the..." I raised my arm in the air and summoned a massive bolt of lightning which hit him mid-sentence. He disintegrated. I took flight and flew high above the arena. I attempted to summon a meteor and land it on the colosseum. After a few trys, I saw the large ball of fire tearing through the atmosphere. As the giant meteor approached, I felt myself waking up. I tried to hold on, but I couldn't. I then prepared to DEILD.

Lucid Dream 155: Humanity's Fate
DEILD
Category - Task/Action
http://i528.photobucket.com/albums/d...-the-world.jpg
I tranistioned smoothly and completed the DEILD. After the tranistion, I was standing on the sidewalk of a neighborhood street. The neighborhood seemed familiar, but I couldn't figure out where I had saw it before. I jogged down the street looking for something interesting when a house caught my eye. It seemed like a normal house, but for some reason it seemed familiar. I walked up and tried to open the door, but it was locked. I decided to just knock and see what happened. I heard someone moving around from the inside and then the door opened.
It was Dr. Emmett Brown (character from the movie, Back to the Future, also known as Doc) and he was wearing the weird mind reading device from the movie. He looked at me and said, "Where are we?" I wasn't sure what to say, so I just walked into the room. Doc poked his head outside, looked both ways, and then closed the door behind. He looked at me and asked, "Were you followed?" I shook my head no and he told me that he had something to show me. I said, "Is it a time machine?" He looked at me in amazement and said, "It works! This mind reading device works!...Well, sort of. It works the opposite way I guess...Quick! What am I thinking?" I looked at him and said, "You are thinking about gay porn." He looked shocked, then he chuckled and said, "Well sometimes...I". I interrupted, "I don't need an explanation, Doc." He then uncovered the DeLorean.
We both jumped in and he said, "So, where do you want to go?" I told him I wanted to go to the future and he looked at me with concern and said, "Yes! Its your kids. We have to do something about your kids Marty!" I laughed and said, "F*** them. Take me to Doomsday. The end of the world!" He smiled and typed April 9, 2061. We then blasted through the side of the house and took off down the street. I watched as the needle approached 88mph. As we hit 88mph, there was a sound like a shotgun blast and white light flooded my vision. When my vision cleared, we were riding through a war zone. We parked and got out. Suddenly a huge metal pole flew in from the sky and impaled Doc. He was dead before he could get a single word out. I thought, "Ok?" and jogged down the street.
There were burning buildings all around and the sky was covered in a thick layer of smoke. The reflection of the burning fires gave the smoke a brownish-orange color. I saw a large group of people gathered around someone who was floating in the air. They all seemed to be suffering and begging to the man in the sky. He laughed an evil laugh (which seemed familiar somehow). He then swooped down and grabbed one of the crowd members. He held her by the neck as he shouted, "This is what happens when you defy me!" He then ripped the girls head off with his bare hands. He threw it down into the crowd and then tossed the body high into the air. A large, red-eyed, black dragon swooped out of the thick smoke and devoured the body. Some of the crowd members hit their knees and began praying. The man floating in the sky shouted, "Fools! I am god! Ha ha ha ha!" I looked closer at the man and thought to myself, "WTF? Is that really..."
I was suddenly floating in the sky above a crowd of people. I looked around and realized that the guy had been me the whole time. I held my arms up above my head and summoned a tornado. I ran it through the town crushing buildings, tossing cars and people all over the place. I then decided to summon another...and another...and another. Soon I was controlling 13 tornadoes that whipped through the city all around me as I floated in the dark sky. There were explosions and the sound of many screaming people. I decided to go ahead and hunt down the rest of the humans. I tried to imagine an army of soldiers approaching me from the horizon (to submit to my command). I heard something behind me and I turned around to find a group of seven people/monsters behind me.
There was a man flying who appeared to be and was dressed like a vampire. There was also a gigantic beast that looked like it came from the game, "Shadow of the Colossus." It was at least forty feet tall and covered in a thick mane of hair. There were three people in black armor holding sinister looking swords, a guy in a mech unit, and a smoking hot female with sharp footlong fingernails. I looked at them all and said, "Now...we feast on the humans! I want none left alive!"
I flew high into the air and summoned Seine (my lunar wolf accomplice). He flew out of the fog and I mounted him. I flew overhead as I watched my subordinates wreck havoc. The colossus had lifted an occupied house and spiked it like a football. I could see the vampire flying away with someone in its arms. The soldiers were chopping up people by the second, and the female was impaling people with her fingernails from great distances (reminded me of Lust from Full Metal Alchemist). I was trying to see what the mech unit was up to, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Suddenly a shower of missles landed in a large crowd of scared people. I looked and saw that the mech unit was circling the area, firing missles and bullets everywhere. Seine then used telepathy to communicate with me. He asked, "How do you finally link the lucid world to the real world?" I awoke before I could answer. I sat up and thought, "Wow, that was interesting."
I've been trying to get my hands on a working time machine to make these tasks easier. This morning I managed to remember the tasks, so I flew over to a random house where they were having a barbecue on the roof. I asked causally, "Hey, do you have a time machine I could borrow?" The owner of the house said no, but told me his next-door neighbour did! Turned out this "time machine" was composed of a huge, old desktop computer and some bizarre visualisations on a dusty screen. Needless to say, it didn't work! I'll be looking out for a TARDIS or DeLorean next. :P
Actually, it looks like hominins as early as homo ergastor and homo erectus controlled and made fire, long before modern humans came along.
But yeah, I'm pretty excited about this task. Gonna build me a time machine.
ohhhh I had no idea there was a yearly task now. This one definitely sounds exciting! :D
So we're not doing the orange and title thingy for those that complete Task of the Year this year?
I'm intrigued for doing this.... But I'm just not so sure I want throw my hat into the ring! XP I've done my first two basic totms, and did my first advanced task. Completing both the basic and advanced for March was pretty sweet and actually unexpected for me, but I just couldn't help myself.
But, should I attempt the TOTY?
....
....
....(thinks about this)
....
Screw it, I'm in. TOTY, here I come!!
Didn't pay any attention that there was a ToTY :shock: . Gotta make up the lost time. I bet that I can complete it by the end of this month, starting tonight.
Man I'm am really going to go for it this year. I've tried lucid dreaming three times before but now me, my bro and two friends are all doing it together. Hopefully I stick with it this time and complete this goal.

This started as a FA. I was sleeping, but woke up because the power went off. I tried to sleep but couldn't. '' Hey, maybe this is a dream. '' So I pinched my nose and became LuCiD. I remembered that I wanted to complete the ToTY. '' So, which one? Ah, Neil Armstrong, am goin' to the moon. '' I said '' Time: July 20th 1969. Destination: Apollo 11. '' A portal appeared, so I jumped right through. I looked around me, and there was Armstrong '' Why, hello there, Tom Cruise. '' He greeted me. '' FFS, I'm not Tom Cruise! '' We started to land. The door opened, Armstrong holding a flag. He was walking to the exit. '' Stop! This is my show! '' I stopped him. '' What the ... '' I grabbed him, took his flag, and threw him behind me. I walked down the stairs '' That's one small step for mwah; one giant leap for - ummm ... Dancing bananas! '' The flag turned into a dancing banana flag. '' ToTY number one: Done. '' The dream started to fade, so I prepared myself for a DEILD.

( I stood still, and transitioned smoothly ) I was outside my house. '' Which task do I do now? '' I thought it through, and came up of a conclusion that I wanted to participate in a gladiators fight. I walked to the door, I heared wild roars and cheers, I opened the door and I'm inside the arena. I walked to the center, looked around me, the king looked at me. Silence. He began to speak: '' Ladies and Gentlemen, let the challenger beg for mercy! '' Trumpets began to play as the gates opened, and the gladiators came out. '' You want a piece of me?! '' They began to rush towards me, then surrounded me from every direction. '' Why Art Though Not Have Weapon. Fuck it. This is getting old. '' I took out a dagger from my pocket. Sliced someone's head, he dropped an axe so I took it. I rushed, killed everyone who got on my way brutal, till there's no one left. That leader became mad. '' Unleash the Beast! '' A ferocious tiger is released. '' Oh, man! I'm not in the mood. '' He lept one huge leap towards me, I stucked my axe in his eyes, and he fell, agonising in pain. His right eye bleeding, and the other one full of tears. I felt sorry for him. I looked at the king. '' This is all your falt! You made me kill all these inocent people just for your excitment! '' I started flying quickly to him, he started running away. '' There's no where to run! '' I carried him, and went up, high in the sky, and threw him. He fell. But isn't dead, so I decided to dive down. My dagger was up in the air. I slowed myself down, grabed it, then continued falling at full speed. And stabed his heart. '' Go f*** yourself in hell, faggot. '' Then I woke up instantly.
