Had 5 DILD's today after failing a WILD, was too exhausted to write them down in the middle of the night :(, forgot them all. I remember giving a pink flower to a female DC though... :D

Continuation of previous post:
I fail spectacularly. The non-lucid goes on for a good while. Nothing interesting happens. This is common for many dreams I experience during naps. Eventually, I find myself in a similar building as before. The same friend is there, but so are a bunch of other people from the Scholars Program I'm in. They were all eating dinner in front of the elevators, which reminds me of the Picnic I'm required to go to when I wake up. Oh, wait, I must be dreaming.Quote:

I'd never been particularly good at shape shifting, but was willing to give it another shot. As gravity started to take effect, I resisted it, I try not to resort to flight, instead I fall slowly at staggered intervals. As I fall, I imagine my body changing; I had chosen the form of a griffin.
For some reason, my field of vision narrows. I assume my head and eyes must have changed positions. Regardless, I try to grow myself some wings in order to keep myself in the air. I am successful. The sensation is odd, but I ignore it as I try to change the rest of my body. After a few seconds of focusing on the end result I try to look down to see if I'm successful. I can't seem to get a good look at myself so I switch to a third person view (Thank you video games).
I'm pretty ugly, with a short, red, feathered neck and squarish head. My wings extend from he point my neck hits the body. Front legs are like big, lanky, feathered chicken legs, puny talons and all. Back legs are somewhat feathered, but have paws that seem like a cross between a lion's and a hippo's. Also, my tail is a feathered tail, not a lions tail. I give myself a lion's tail with a bit more concentration, but I can't get rid of the feathers. The result is odd, to say the least.
As I'm flying around what appears to have turned into a city landscape, I work on my front legs a bit more, making them a bit more beefy. The beak protruding from my face is small. Overall, I'm unhappy with how the whole thing turned out. Why didn't I turn into a Phoenix, I think to myself. Somewhat frustrated, I use an abstract version of my "pinch" technique (cause I'm working in the third person) to lengthen my neck. I mess up and make it too long and heavy. Fearing that I'm running out of time, I do.
I get up, take a shower, and go to the picnic. Feeling disappointed in my performance.
Do a Vulcan neck pinch. then give them a flower.
I had a perfect opportunity to turn into godzilla last night, but I forgot the task haha...
I became lucid in a dream this morning and was flying, I saw many mid evil buildings below. I went down to one and entered, it turned out to be a dungeon and the dungeon master told me I had to get in a cell. I went down and opened a small door, the cells were hamster size, so I did not get in. I left the dungeon and ran to a water fall. I had heard that water in dreams can heal, so I put my knee under the falling water, as I have a bad knee. I could hear that the dungeon people were after me, I went down some water covered stone steps next to the water fall which lead to an under water cave. I knew that I was dreaming, so the dungeon people couldn't really hurt me, but I was having fun in the chase. I started sliding down some stone water slides and landed in a large body of water. I was breathing under water as I swam and I could here myself snorting when I breathed, I turned myself into a dragon and now when I snorted, I could breathe fire, this helped me to see and it was dark underwater. I then woke.
advance attempt
My ears aren't popping or anything! It's go time. I open my eyes up again, and I'm in my old room. There are these posters all over it that are the same thing, and they have Japanese writing on them with some guy in the middle who looks a lot like Super Sayjin Goku. I question it for a second, and then I hear some people knocking on my door. Random kids....I think they're how my nieces used to look when they were little. They were trying to tell me to do something, and I thought about the advance task of the month.
I let out a snarl, and threw on a long sleeve tee-shirt and felt the room inside of it fill with hair. I held out my hands and focused on them. Thick rock like fingernails grew from my fingers, and my niece said "whats wrong with you"? I said "I'm wolfing out"! I focused on my mouth and felt my teeth grow in size. I had to almost hold my mouth wide open to accommodate them...for some reason I could feel the pain in my teeth as they grew. I needed to see how far things were going.
I headed to the bathroom mirror, and noticed that even my posture changed. I was bent over, and my shoulders were larger. I looked in the mirror and my eyes were sunk in and my nose was shaped like a button, and my teeth were pretty menacing. I grabbed my ears and stretched them out and shaped them so they were pointed. And they remained that way. I still had that look like I was in between a full transformation, because my face wasn't full of hair. I started focusing on that, and the dream faded.
Oh right, finished the task yesterday:
DEILD
Was going to send a puppet, but I think the water was on my way of making a proper one and had to go personally... too bad, first, convinced the sponge of going to a certain mountain close to that city, then told it an story about the mountain and that behind it was a treasure and you know, these kind of things to draw attention. After making the story, had now to get rid of that pink thing that was following... but it was too stupid as to obey or understand anything I was saying, so stopped bothering and continued with my plan to destroy them all <.<
Now there were 3 or 4 problems to get to the mountain, one was that in the way was a house made of food, the other was a festival, and the last two were friends of the silly, decided to let them in the food house for some time while destroying the rest of the bothers, or at least the festival, that one would be bothersome <.<
Once destroyed the festival, had to wait for them to finish eating the house, scaring the fish inside it and then jumping on the remaining of it... once done that we continued our travel (from which, I just wanted a place to transform peacefully and then destroy), found the other 2 guys in the way and then continued to the mountain, once there transformed into a kraken, scared them a little and then to destroy! First killed them though, they were annoying, it was fun.
Now for the flower thing!
I've been away, I'll make the badges this weekend :P
Okay, so I finally got around to completing the TotM...
So I decided to turn into a werewolf, since it's something I thought would be fun to try in a dream. I was going through some military training when I became lucid. I immediatley changed the scenery to the top of a big hill by my house. It was nighttime and there was a big full moon. I summoned a mirror and propped it up next to a big boulder so I could watch myself transform. I started with my hands. I looked down at them and started to make gray fur appear, then I morphed my fingernails into big black claws. The fur began to travel up my arms through the rest of my body and I began to feel warmer. I looked in the mirror and focused on my face. I turned my eyes red and luminous, and stared up at the moon for a moment. When I looked back at the mirror I was looking at a full werewolf. My shirt was gone, and my pants were ripped and baggy. I then started to run down the hill as fast I could and jumped off of all fours and went sailing through the air and landed on the street. I began to run on all fours and went at 50 miles an hour through my dark street, it was a really cool feeling. I didn't know what else to do so I began flying around, and just vandalized a bunch of houses, then I woke up.
I was able to re-enter a dream today, and attempted the basic task of the month:
I was given another chance later on, and even thought of the advanced task:Quote:

I see my friend Sarika and jump at the chance to give her a flower. I attempt to conjure one up, but I just couldn't. I leave to find a nice-looking flower and begin to think about the advanced task. Maybe I'd have better luck with that one? My thoughts are interrupted as I see Sarika trying to sneak out and I run to her, angry.
:shakehead2:
Hopefully I'll have better luck later on...
I was in some huge parking lot with lots of people. And I said lets do this basic task again...I have no idea why I didn't get credit but oh well. I just thought about flowers being where a tree was, and all different types sprang from it. I saw an older, but beautiful black woman who had on a expensive looking dress. I gave her a smile and said "here, these are for you". She said why are you giving them to me? I said the people at DV want me to give them to you. She said something like she owned those flowers there, and I pulled out my wallet and said what do I owe you then? She said nothing....but she wanted some different ones. I said, just "keep those, I got every single type that was available". She wanted me to walk with her.
This might give someone an idea, but I think it would be fun to assassinate someone and then drop a flower/rose on them, as seen in many action flicks.
Would that register as basic task completion considering they'd be dead?
Hah! That'd be pretty badass! Yeah, if the flower is on the DC, it counts. (in my opinion~)Quote:

My hearts kinda racing because this is the first time in a while I haven't started out in my room on a WILD. Nor, did I on the REM atonia ride i normally experience.
I look at my hands....I can see four of them....I relax....now there are two. I look up...and I'm in some large living room, and I'm sitting on a long tan couch. There's a computer in the room...I want to check it, but I don't. I walk into one room, and there's this guy who I'm guessing is my room mate or something. I really don't have time to talk to him, so I hit another room. Theres another guy who looks just like him in the other room. ALSO the other room looks just like the previous one.
I said something to him, and he cut me off and answered me mid sentence. Then I asked him if he saw, and paused, and thought of her name three times. And he said S? I said "yeah". He said "i dunno, she might be outside". I headed out of the door, and she wasn't anywhere, but oh well...it was still kind of a success with passive control.
I started thinking about the advance task of the month again, and almost forgot what it was. It clicked in my head, and the first thing I started doing was growing long black fur all over me. It started sprouting out of my right arm, and I grabbed some of it, and put it on my leg...like it was a thick lather of bubbles.....and it spread there..... I kept doing this untill I was fully covered in fur. I looked at my nails, and had no problems growing claws again. I touched my face, and it just felt ugly.
There was a bear outside...almost mascot-ish...I decided to test out my skills. I came rushing at him on all fours, and tackled him. He was growling as he got back up. I went at him again and tried swiping him in the face. As my nails dug in his flesh, it felt like they were going to rip off. I went for another swipe, and it went a little better, but it still felt awkward. He got up again, and I WWF drop kicked him in the chest. The bear is pretty much done for, and so is my dream.
As soon as my dryspell ends, I'm gonna try doing these tasks! :D I think I'm gonna turn into a dragon... and give somebody a flower while still being one :lol:
I think there was only one DC I ever gave flowers to... And it ate the flowers XD
On sunday night, I got as far as a garden where there were flowers. But no one there to give a flower to. I can't seem to create things in dreams, flowers or people. Only use or interact with what is already in them.
I did it last night!! :D

I made an unofficial lucid dream task thread, with the goal of researching various aspects of and furthering the understanding of lucidity and other aspects of dreaming and the human mind.
You know you want to click. :wink:
Please, I need participants! Thank you. :)
Oh my.
I thought I had stalled the thread :)
