Thread: Ninja world

Ninja world

This is the first page and start of a hopefully amazing adventure.

Getting lucid and staying lucid is a rather tricky thing to do. You remind yourself that you're dreaming constantly when you perform tasks that are impossible in waking life. To counter this, people have come up with an idea that I will try out.

The idea is to follow the rules of the world you end up in, and try to live in the moment. You don't think about lucid dreaming more than you can while being lucid, other than stabilizing the dream and making sure you don't lose lucidity, you just follow the rules.

When you get confident enough to fly or do any kind of superpower without thinking much about it, when it all feels natural, then you can do it without risking to end the dream prematurely. This can be quite hard for some people, and creating a world where this is possible will make the dream less "forced".

If you're in a world where superpowers are possible, I believe that you will be able to stay lucid and remain in the dream for a very long time even though you do things that should be impossible in real life.

The idea

What I intend to do, is to create a world similar the world that of Naruto. It's a ninja world with different countries. Each country has a speciality based on the elements of nature. I will not create the Naruto world itself, but a similar place. I have no idea how the land looks, how it's run, who will be there and what my own powers are. I will be a ninja like the rest, and I will work my way up through the ranks, or down.

To do:

1. Use a portal to go there, look around and fly as high as possible to get a clear view of the landscape. Look at the details, and wake myself up immediately after to make a large map of the place. This is the only time flying will be permited (until learned if possible).

2. Find out what my powers are. This is done in Naruto by holding a special card and focusing a bit of chakra into it. The card will tell you your primary nature allignment.
The different nature allignments are: Fire, Earth, Wind, Water and Lightning.

3. Interact with people and let the adventure begin!
As I go and find out more and more about the world, I will add things to my map. What countries there are (if any), different people, items I find and so on. Having a huge map drawn and gradually expanded will make it easier to get a clear picture of the place and keep me motivated.

Rules

Not everything will be possible. I guess doing other powers than that of your primary allignment will be possible, only you will be the strongest with that particular element. You won't be able to do much at first. Practice makes perfect!

The world is built up so that people have a Chakra Energy System. You use chakra to do different things and you gradually get more and more the more you use it. When you're out of chakra, you will be exhausted.

The rest is up to you!

The conclusion is: Draw a big map of a world, explore and live in that world with an alter ego. Fill in the map with details and information about the world.

There's much talk about whether Shared Dreaming is real or not, but I do know one thing. The experience itself is real in the dream, and if people are up for it, I would gladly "share" this world with you. How about I start it all off by finding out how the world looks and what it is called and we can take it from there?

If you have any thoughts or suggestions at all, feel free to post. I just wrote up what was on my mind. I'm sure I have forgotten alot and there are probably things that needs changing, I want to make sure everything's perfect before I do this.

This is what the map should look like, although I will draw it in real life and put it up on my wall. It will be alot bigger and alot more detailed and nicely done ofcourse.



Yes I got the idea from different people's threads. Mostly from the elite of Shared Dreaming, KingYoshi and the "Dreamscaping" thread. I guess it will be like the "Serial Dream RPG" only with more set rules and in a different kind of world.

Spam with suggestions. Keep on dreaming!

*EDIT* Having a subforum about this might be something worth looking into. If enough people are interested and intend to do this fully, they will have their own threads with their pictures posted, and it will be like a story.
