Lucid Challenge 58 - winner - Koal44

I threw a grenade in a non-lucid dream. Claiming Flying Daggers task.

Haha these tasks. Admittedly, I forgot them after reading. But well… I’ve been reading a lot of Naruto lately. And that means it’s been invading my dreams. And that apparently means tasks?

So I’ll claim points for two NDs. Though I only wrote down the first one, in which I was a lower ninja of the leaf village, and had the following tasks happen:

  • Met a Martial Artist (Well, Kakashi is a Ninja, and he was testing me)
  • Threw an object (Shiruken count, right?)
  • Focused my chi to throw a powerful punch (And got thrown back because I’m a weakling)

D= Damn it Naruto! (Dream can be read here)

^^ I’m interested to know whether, in this dream, you perceived your surroundings as if inside a cartoon or rather, you dreamed of what said anime characters would look like in real life??

As for the challenge, I kinda have been slacking lately, but I’m not going to push myself too hard to lucid dream as I’ve found that can kill my motivation. I’m claiming a measly fragment point, so there’s that :grin:

I was thinking about this when I typed up the dream. I’m guessing they were real life versions, which is why they looked different or older? Shrugs

Actually, now I hope that I have more dreams of them. Dreaming of Kakashi was almost as cool as dreaming of the Doctor. :content:

Just one ND here this morning.

Sorry for the lack of score updates over the weekend.

@Eilatan - Very cool that the tasks line up so well with Naruto. I hope you can incubate the other tasks in a similar way, or better yet, this time with lucidity? :smile:

Well done to everyone who got lucid or did tasks this weekend. The scores are close! For those that didn’t quite get there yet, no worries. Still a few nights left: You got this! :cool:

Yesterday I had one normal dream
Tonight four normal dreams and one medium lucid dream. :smile: Unfortunately I failed on one of the tasks in my lucid dream:

[spoiler]​

Now I’m walking through my street and it’s really dark. This doesn’t feel like real life so I look at my hands. I’ve got six fingers on my left hand. With my right hand I touch the extra finger and it feels normal. I get exited from being lucid so I take some deep breaths to calm down. When I look to the sky I notice lots of stars, brighter and bigger than usual. This makes me remember the ‘eating a star’ task, so I reach to the sky with my hand and try to grab a star. All I grab is air so after some tries I give up. What do I want to do? There is no one on the streets, probably because it’s in the middle of the night. Lets make it daytime then. With my eyes closed I picture the sun above me and people on the streets, but when I open my eyes everything is still the same. The lucid dream becomes a normal dream again.[/spoiler]

Week 2

2 NDs

2 NDs and maaaaybe two tasks done? I didn’t throw an object, I grabbed and threw a monster, and I didn’t absorb power into me, but into my weapon. If it doesn’t count, that’s ok. :content:

Non-lucid dream in which I throw a snowball. I claim the points for the Flying Daggers task,

Another non-lucid dream in which an ocean wave washes over me.

@JimMorrison - 4 ND and a LD in one night is very good recall, and you remembered a task this time! Good progress. :smile:

@En’enra - Yep both of those tasks count - throwing something that’s alive is more difficult than an inanimate object. The fire arrow was inspired too and definitely in keeping with the spirit of the task.

@Susan_Y - That was a cool task completion. :cool:

2 Normal dreams last night. Came close to lucidity at some point and even had one ND where I was trying to go to find a bed to start Lucid dreaming… So annoying :meh:

I had four NDs last night but did nothing. I feel like I saw space junk, but my memory is failing me so don’t worry.

Two ND s (one of them was a nightmare in which I wondered if I was dreaming, but I didn’t become lucid!) but still not a single task done, lol! :sweat_smile:

Non-lucid dream in which I run down a vertical castle wall. The dream environment looked like a Zelda game. I’ll claim he points for the wall running task.

3NDs and one small Lucid dream last night. I accomplished one or two tasks in the NDs after failing to throw something in the LD…

So I m pretty sure I m in for the throwing Daggers task.
Then I don t know if it counts for Spiritual thoughts
and If a Boat in the middle of the ocean counts for a remote part of the world. :smile:
In any case, those tasks were not done Lucid so I would just really ask the points for throwing daggers because it comes because of the try from the LD right before.

@James_uk2008 - Cool space dream. I’ve given you the task completions from last week for being on a space ship and flying fast through space.

@Koal44 - Yes I’m happy to count those task completions, although where was the bit with the boat? Still, if you were out on the ocean waves that counts. :smile:

Scores are updated

Had one normal dream where I tought about throwing a knife, but didn’t do it. :neutral:
Also had one medium lucid dream where I flew for the first time :happy:

​I re-enter the dream after being awake. We leave the field with horses, again there is one horse missing but this time it’s not me without the horse, it’s O. After traveling some time on the horses I get the feeling I always get when I’m lucid, I don’t have to check my hands to be sure. Somehow I know how to ride a horse. I recognize the area because it’s close to my school. Slowly we advance towards the grocery store because I’m hungry and I want to taste food inside a dream. The horses changed into bikes but they are very slow. Why not fly? I leap into the sky and it feels awso​me, but after seconds I wake up.
