How vivid are your dreams?

I do not dream.

I only experience feelings/emotions, but not visuals/sounds.

I experience visuals/sounds but they are vague and abstract.

I experience clear visuals/sounds but they lack color and fine detail.

I experience clear visuals/sounds with color but they lack fine detail.

I experience clear visuals/sounds with color and some fine details.

I experience clear visuals/sounds with very fine detail.

I’m just curious because a detail from a dream that I had last night stuck out to me. It was a bare shoulder, where I could see the faint hairs and details of the person’s skin, right down to their birthmark. All of which remained incredibly consistent throughout the rest of the dream before I woke up.

When I mention this kind of shit to people IRL they claim I’m a fucking liar. Just wanted to see if it’s normal for other folks to have detail in their dreams.

The poll will be up for a week.

The poll options don’t exactly line up for me. I dream rarely but when I do I experience very clear visuals(written text is still wrong though) but that’s the only sense. no touch, no noise and no smells. sometimes I experience physical pain in the dream. generally there’s people talking but there’s no noise or mouth movements, i just know what they’re saying.

The colors are more intense than reality for the most part, the surroundings are strange but realistic looking, except the colors are far more intense.

it’s funny because my job involves a lot of using a box cutter, so you’d think that’s the thing I’d accidentally hurt myself with the most

but nooo no no no. the box cutter is my colleague, my ally, my friend. you know what is truly bloodthirsty in a print & signage shop? literally Anything Else that’s able to cut but not supposed to. cardboard, sheets of plastic, the humble paper of course, corrugated polypropylene, aluminum composite sheets - i nicked myself on a sheet of magnetic material today?? it bled. kinda profusely.

basically:

• box cutter: a trusty companion, might hurt you if you handle it wrong, but that’s understandable
• stuff you use the box cutter on: they know you as their enemy. they know the rules of this life: kill, or be killed. they know what they have to do.

thank you. the people need to know about the real menace

I’ve remarked in the past that one of the problems with Dungeons & Dragons under Hasbro is that they want to downplay a lot of the uncomfortably horny elements which have historically characterised the game’s implicit milieu, but certain key parts of the game’s brand identity are tied up with those horny bits, and they’re not willing to give that brand identity up, so they end up doing daft shit like keeping dragon-blooded sorcerers as a core class while acting like “one of your parents fucked a dragon” is the least likely explanation for how you got to be that way, resulting in a text with a strangely coy tone.

The 2024 Player’s Handbook carries this policy – and the resulting tonal incoherence – forward. This is how it describes draconic sorcery:

As we can see, it even walks back the 2014 Player’s Handbook’s oft-mocked discussion of “bargaining” with dragons for power, in favour of proposing scenarios involving accidental exposure to draconic magic – as though a draconic sorcerer is some sort of dragon-themed Spider-Man – while grudgingly acknowledging the possibility of actual dragon-fucking almost as an afterthought.

And then it uses this image to illustrate the Draconic Sorcery subclass:

“Might”.

I believe it was Fizban’s Treasury which suggested that dragons don’t even have sex with each other, instead creating dragon eggs by means of various mysterious rituals. I’m not kidding about Hasbro’s intense preoccupation with insisting that dragons do not fuck – it’s actually kind of bizarre!

I really like the idea of dragons being created by magic. but weird egg summoning rituals ain’t it.

—————

I headcanon it thus:

Dragons don’t actually exist. Dragons are entirely artificially created species and most of them either are completely unaware or are actively suppressing this information in order to ensure their own superiority, established hierarchies. etc.

as mortal wizards gain power and knowledge(same thing really) they tend to grow fascinated with their own mortality.

–

so you get two ways to live longer:

lichdom(gross and unethical)

true polymorph(weird but hey! no murdering people to power your creepy soul box)

—-

needless to say true polymorph is the better option and the polymorph shape is directly derived from the appearance and blessing of two highly magical deities(Tiamat and Bahamut or ugh……. Sardor) to their favored servants.

needless to say over hundreds of thousands of years and said wizards having children the dragon-wizards are theoretically their own species. Any new dragons created the old polymorph way are intruders at best into dragon culture and likely to reignite trouble in the established order/cold war between the 2(3) dragon god’s followers so they aren’t treated as ‘real dragons’

….But it explains dragons having the hots for humanoids. because their brains are still running humanoid software despite the 5 tons of demigod flesh.

(Bahamut probably finds it all hysterical of course)
