Mass Intro' and Returns Thread

[Zirca]

Hello! I'm Zirca, a young woman from the little-known, distant legendary realm of- just kidding, I'm actually French. This is the first time I use this name on the internet, since I'd prefer to keep this a secret on my main online identity until I reach a more advanced stage of creating my own tulpa. I used to aspire to be a computer science researcher, but due to some issues with my studies, I ended up accepting that I'd have to kiss this dream goodbye - right now, one of my main ideas for the future is to become an indie game dev, but mainly out of passion rather than a reliable source of money. I'm especially fascinated by puzzle games, and playing through DROD: The Second Sky at the time of this post. Oh, and I'm trans (MtF), which could be good to know, I guess.

 

I first learned about plurality about a week ago, when a member of a Discord community I'm in came out as a member of a system. Since then, I've been browsing communities related to it, at first to learn more about this subject that I found fascinating in terms of its implications on the concept of identity. The tulpa community itself ended up catching my eye, with the awe-inspiring stories that could come from hosts and tulpas' experiences, but even more importantly because after some thinking, it dawned on me that it could be part of an answer to some issues I have in my life - more details on that whenever I make my own progress thread, this wouldn't be a good post to clutter with psychology.

 

I started active forcing on Wednesday this week, for now narrating for somewhere around half an hour each day before going to sleep, but I might have been doing passive forcing for somewhere around 2 years now, since I first started conceiving the story that my future tulpa, Neln, comes from. Out of all the characters I've imagined, she was one that I was particularly fond of back then, and probably the one I fleshed out the most overall. So when I decided to make a tulpa, she was an obvious choice, especially since her personality is complementary to mine in ways that might help us a lot in life if she keeps them - though of course, I know there's no guarantee that any of it will stick due to deviation, so I'll hopefully still be happy with her whatever she turns out to become. And I hope that when she inevitably comes back to read this once she learns to front, I won't look too much like a dork in hindsight. Sorry Neln! ;)

Welcome Zirca and Neln! Don't worry too much about any changes Neln does, it's almost always fine, and often for the better, interesting and exciting. We hope to see you around.

[Zirca]

Thanks! I don't know if she can read this yet, but I'll make sure to tell her <3

Hello all, I'm 0Mancer007.

 

For years, I've been interested in tulpas.  However, I've been too nervous to try making one on my own.  Any advice is appreciated.  Look forward to meeting you all!

Howdy 0Mancer007, welcome to the forums!

hello! may or may not be actually returning (due to it being not entirely in my power to stay active), but i have some updates and fun things to talk about.

 

i haven't been active for some time, so to reintroduce myself, the name's Majiq - tho you can call me Mage, with pronouns either they or he. i'm a spiritualist of three years, and an aspiring comic book artist. i usually describe myself as the local space hippie conspiracy theorist with friends on the other side. talk to me about magick craft, my favorites are energy work and extra dimensional beings, especially ETs. following in suit, my comic book plans are largely sci-fi, and my favorite shows and games always involve a mix of technology and magick. Steven Universe, Voltron LD, Mass Effect (tho actually a comic book and video game series) for example, tho i also like anime such as DeathNote, Canaan, and good ol Naruto. i love roleplaying in writing too, tho the amount of rps i've left less than halfway through will be the death of me.

 

Kovie will introduce herself now:

Hello! You know my name friends! I use she pronouns, i'm an alien, but i look different from most. I have four arms, three eyes, and long antennae. I love music, dance, drawing, science and language. I'm pretty good at possession, doing good with imposition, we're practicing with dual processing a little bit. Talk to me about anything! I love learning anything new~

 

Vyx will now introduce themself:

hey guys, waddup! i kinda went through some more remodeling so i'm like a little less edgy, more just fun and cool i guess, so heyy nice character development! right so, pronouns are just whatever dude, i can be feminine or masculine or whatever basically whenever. my gender actually changes with the situation i'm in, but i don't give a damn what you call me. i like being active, so i like doing stuff outdoors. parkour, climbing, sports, dancing is cool too. i think i could learn spanish so i can make new non-english friends. talk to me about whatever! i just like making new amigos

 

 

so feel free to interact, pm me or send me a fq on discord (just let me know your username on here when you send it). i may not post myself much, but i will respond if anyone decides to hmu.

Welcome back Mage, Kovie and Vyx. It's nice to see some of the older systems again, we could learn a lot from you guys if you stuck around a little, but just hearing from you is appreciated. It's one of those things young systems wonder about, what happens later, much later. There are a few older systems around, but some of them never bring up their tulpas.

 

What an interesting system, we've always been fascinated by non-humans in systems.

 

Take care

Hi, I am Helsger, or Thorrstein, if you prefer. 

 

I am at least "new" in this, but have the idea, but not by this name, for 3 years ansd a bit more. So, I will start in near future, but not without  some more and more information and a "supllying" community on my side.

 

So, thank you for letting me in, and now I will first start reading before asking stupid questions ^^.

Hello; I'm Sei, and I'm rather new to the idea of tulpas, but I have a few people/ OCs in my head I like to watch and I was thinking it wouldn't hurt to try to develop them a little more.

 

I did have a question, though, and it seemed too trivial for me to create a post asking about it...

I don't interact with my characters myself. When I interact with them, there is a specific person I sort of become--he's probably the one that's been with me the longest, and I occasionally encounter/ inhabit him in my dreams as well. Put simply, I tend to "slide into" him before interacting with the couple of others that are always somewhere in there independent of their original story-worlds. However, he is not I and I am not he; I am aware of this. I have a weak sense of self, though--I usually stream myself into one of four deliberately outlined personas when interacting with others in life in general, and when not, I dissociate into the space inside my head. So--put shortly, question is this: should I create a more defined personality for myself to use when interacting with potential tulpas? I feel rather amorphous right now as I watch them, and for some reason it doesn't seem like I can interact with them even when I try without inhabiting the person I mentioned earlier.
