"A lucid dream is a dream in which the sleeper is aware that she or he is dreaming."
" When the dreamer is lucid, she or he can actively participate in and often manipulate the imaginary experiences in the dream environment."
"Lucid dreams can seem extremely real and vivid depending on a person's level of self-awareness during the lucid dream."
Welcome To Lucid Dreaming
Lucid Dreaming is a "Choose-Your-Own-Adventure" game.
Much like The Endless Forest: It has no goal.
If you choose to participate, then you are Lucid Dreaming.
Every night you choose to Lucid Dream you will wake up in a dream.
The setting may be familiar, or completely foreign.
You know that you are dreaming.
Throughout your journey you will be presented with certain scenarios.
I am your guide to these scenarios and will inform you of the consequences of your choices and actions.
Guidelines of Lucid Dreaming:
-At Any time you may wake up. You know how to do this. It might be pinching yourself, or realizing it is a dream, or jumping from something tall. It is personal.
-If you willingly wake up you will have the choice to continue from a specific point from a previous night of your choosing.
-You enter the dream world with a certain level of stress from One to Twenty.
What number you enter with is based on your actual level of stress when you join.
Be honest.
Lying to give yourself more courage will not improve the game for you.
With each reaction to a scenario or action taken you will evaluate how you are feeling.
If you are nervous, scared, or stressed out enough to reach 20, you must leave the dream.
If you are forced out by stress, you will not remember anything from the dream that night.
You may be forced out by "dying" in the dream.
-You may only enter the dream once per night.
-You may be presented with very personal, unnerving, scary, or disturbing settings or situations.
-Some times you will be prompted to provide information.
For example: "This room contains the animal you fear the most. What is it?"
"A pet you loved dearly that passed away is in front of you-describe them"
"A deer has come to join your side, who is it?"
You can choose to answer, or leave the dream.
-Each night will vary in it's length.
An approximate time of each Night will be given when the game is posted.
You have until that time to enter the dream and voluntarily wake up before the night ends.
If you do not voluntarily wake up in the time period you will not retain any information from that night.
You may still participate the next night.
-Everyone speaks the same language in dreams
Everyone in a dream, regardless of what language they are speaking, are speaking a language that you under stand. They may clearly be a foreign individual speaking a foreign tongue, but you will know what they are saying.
-You can manipulate the dream.
You may be as grand or as minute as you wish to be. If you need something you can get it. This is a dream.
however...
-You are yourself.
You only have the skills, abilities, and information that you do at the exact moment you enter the dream that night.
Entering the dream world will not magically give you the ability to play the violin.
You might be able to do something absurd as flying, but you cannot suddenly become a good basketball player.
You are limited in this regard.
-You have two hands.
You can pick up items you might find in the dream. You can retain these items for that night, but have no where to store them. You may carry two small items, or one large item. These items may or may not come in handy.
-You are alone.
You may be in the same setting as another player, but you are alone. You cannot see or communicate with them at this point in time.
Depending on the actions of the players a setting where mutual dreaming may become available. For now: Focus on surviving on your own.
-Your Guide can be slow at times
Depending on what I am doing in real life OR the amount of participants it might take some time to get to your situation or reactions.
Be patient.
-Each night you start in the same default setting unless you have requested one.
You may then explore from the default setting. It is just the 'base point' for all new dreamers.
- At times you may be required to fulfill an obligation or perform a task before you may move on.
Guidelines of The Mansion:
-When you enter the mansion you will be assigned to a team.
Your team will be your savior if you happen to die in the mansion.
-Your mission is to explore the mansion
How you do this is up to you. You may go off on your own or stick close to your team-mates.
-If you die you will become a poltergeist
You cannot manifest your old form or speak.
You must rely on your ability to levitate and manipulate objects to lead your team mates to retrieve your body.
When your body is placed in the main hall you will be revived.
-The mansion is only available until between 10:30 pm EST and 11:00 pm EST unless otherwise noted.

"Yeah. It's pretty creepy in here isn't it?"
The voice comes from over Rain's right shoulder and behind all members of the group.
It has a slight growly undertone.

"I guess if that's what you
I suddenly turn around to the source of the voice, pointing my knife at it.
"Who are you?" I yelp, scanning behind Rain. I can't hide the shakiness in my voice.
I nod, though a little
At the sound of the voice I

Standing, or more, slouching
Standing, or more, slouching behind rain is what could only be describe as a monster wearing a safari uniform.
He is quite large, atleast then feet tall with scales covering his body. He only has one eye an a large grin filled with sharp teeth. On his shoulder blades are little dinky wings. He seems to be big and squishy in general. Not very terrifying at all.
In response to Ocean's voice and their sudden turn around he screams loudly and takes off lumbering downstairs.
They successfully found the world's largest coward.
Daw..I kind feel bad now. I
"Hey! Mister...whoever you
That was smooth, Ocean.

As the monster lumbers past he bumps into one of the large grandfather clocks that immediately starts chiming.
Oh geez not this again....

The walls start to crack.
BONG-BONG-BONG
The rug is yanked violently down the stairs.
BONG-BONG-BONG
The curtains rip open and everything not nailed down starts getting sucked outside.
BONG-BONG-BONG
Everything...disappears.
BONG!
They are forced once again to the real world, with items in tow
We were inching too close to my 11 pm cut off for tonight. My TEF clock is completely off from the actual time due to TEF not having my time zone. D;; That's why times are always approximate.
Will Meadow rescue her duck?
