So the idea goes as follows , get lucid , then ask a DC if he could contact you in RL (not dropping by your place ) as a voice in your head … this also could help with creating a more stabile dreamworld at getting lucid more often
I haven’t remembered to talk to any of my dream characters to tell me I’m dreaming or to contact me in waking state, but I may do it when I have a lucid dream tonight.
There was once this bear like creature that told me his name was Ned in a dream… I don’t think I’ve ever heard him as a voice while awake but next time I see him I’ll ask him to say hi.
