A place where you can meet people from across the world as you sleep. For years dreamers have been trying to achieve a form of telepathy through their minds and now, they have figured out how. There is no technology, no chemical compound you need to ingest or inject into your body; just sleep. Through various techniques, many people are able to become lucid, or "awake", allowing them to control their dreams.

Until a few years ago, lucid dreamers were not able to break the barrier into this dreamscape. They were mentally barred by their freedom and desire to create an alternate reality. One such dreamer, Rebecca Turner, was able to break this barrier. She found herself amongst regular dreamers and was able to enter and influence their dreams freely. A place where people from all over the world could come together and inspire others.
The Dreamverse.

Disclaimer!

While Rebecca Turner is an expert on lucid dreaming, the Dreamverse is of my creation and she does not support it. Further more, I obtained permission to use her name and she is not affiliated with this role play as anything more than a source of information.

Link to her website: world-of-lucid-dreaming.com

There will be a lot more information in the OOC, but if you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them!

Thank you all for your interest!
I'm currently working on some Q/As that, while they will be answered in the OOC, might give people more clarity on what to expect from this role play. They should be up in a couple hours. :)

Here they are! Sorry for the delay, I took a nap. I feel old sometimes. o.o

What is the Dreamverse?

The Dreamverse is a worldwide telepathic network that connects the sleeping mind. This gives rise to the thought that, while we are asleep, we are more mentally powerful. Generally, most people in the Dreamverse are not aware that others are walking into their dreams or they are venturing into others. The meetings are often miniscule and dont have much of an impact since most people don't remember them.

For a more literal image, think of bubble wrap. Each bubble is a persons own sphere of dream. Their minds world. They are separate from each other, but they do occasionally bump into one another. This allows for dreamers to unconsciously meet others, but neither will remember what happened.

How does lucid dreaming effect the Dreamverse?

As a lucid dreamer that has gained entry into the Dreamverse, you can knowingly influence someone in their dreams for better or worse. For instance, say someone was getting attacked by someone or something and you step in. The way you handle this persons dream will either condemn or inspire them.

Why couldn't lucid dreamers enter the Dreamverse before?

The Dreamverse, contrary to what you might think, is actually very static. Different only between people. It only connects dreamers that are not controlling their 'world'. That is until a lucid dreamer broke through that barrier.

Isn't lucid dreaming in the Dreamverse dangerous?

Yes. Even though you are lucid, you are still directly channeling your subconscious. Because of this, you face fragments of yourself within the boundaries of Dreamverse. Everything from day to day fears to things you have kept hidden deep inside for years. If you cannot overcome these parts of you, they will consume you. You will also face things from your imagination. Friendly... or not.

What about the regular dreamers?

They are not in danger from your subconscious creations. Only the lucid dreamer poses a threat to the regular dreamers.

If you have any other questions you feel are important, go ahead and ask!

I'm sitting here looking for my rp and whoa, its at the top! Hahaha.
Here is the sheet. I'm still working on what should be in it, so look out for changes.

Nickname: How you introduce yourself in Dreamverse

Age: I will not accept anyone younger than 17.

Gender:

DV Appearance: How you look in Dreamverse. This can be anime, realistic, or whatever you want. You can even be an different race. Anything is possible.

History:

Greatest fear:

Fears: three or four, please

Greatest strength: emotionally or mentally, not physical

Strengths: two or three

Dreamverse state: This is the most obvious and common things about your dreams. For example, when I dream, the colors are vivid and the backgrounds and such are extremely detailed and realistic even if things that move aren't.

Keep in mind that I am hoping people will play themselves or something close to you. I think it would make it far more interesting and personal. ^_^

This is intriguing >3> color me interested for I have always liked tinkering with dreams.

I see 'dream police' becoming a thing XD

On a side note, is this assumed to take place in 'the real world' as we know it? I.e. memes, political horrors, fandoms, and a vast array of other things that influence us on a day to day basis and may affect dreams?

I didnt even think of dream police! I must implement this..

Yes. It sure does!
Though I'm not sure why someone would dream of memes.
Now I feel like I need to use one. I'm thinking LotR, "One does not simply... enter the Dreamverse."

Are you kidding? not even considering the whole 'everything can influence your subconcious and your subconcious usually influences dreams' thing, I guarantee there are some people out there who would totally do that kinda stuff if they could control their dreams, or dreamselves, or whatever the words are for people being in this 'dreamverse' XD

Hell, I'd be a little disappointed [figuratively speaking] in the veracity of the setting if there isn't at least 3 people who turned themselves into ponies, or are riding some around, at least 2 dudes who imitate Richard the warlock and have a hilarious Argument with Deadpool about bestpony [because cooky 4th wall breakers always seem to do the silliest things like that], and probably a smattering of dragons and robot things, and at least one idiot going around pretending to be god made manifest.
