[A random system]

Hey!

We're a currently unnamed system with the current headcount of four, and collectively we use they/he/ki/hum pronouns. We're alterhuman heavy, as there is technically half a human in this system. I, the host, am a S'chn't'gai Spock fictionkin and use he/they pronouns, and there is also an angelkin named Gabriel, who is our empathy and emotion holder that uses he/ki/hum pronouns. Other system members in here are Naut, a maned wolf that likes to monologue and uses bubble/🫧/it pronouns. Last but not least, there is Hakuji, an Akaza (Demon Slayer) fictive that is our internal caretaker and he uses he/him pronouns.

We like biology, anthropology and the game Palia, and we would be really happy to be able to talk about it.

If you also are a fictive/fictionkin of someone from Star Trek or Demon Slayer, we'll be really happy to talk with you, even if you are a double.

We are just beginning tulpamancy, and we are currently creating our first tulpa.

We look forward to hanging out with you all!

28 Years with a Vulcan Engineer

 

Hello everyone. I'm Pranara, and I'm joining this community after nearly three decades of living with what I now understand is called a tulpa - though for most of that time, I had no terminology for what Salen was or how he came to be. And to be honest, I have spent decades trying to find out what Salen was. I had explored topics like, Inner Self Helper, Internalised Companions, alters from DID or MPD, and even Third Man Syndrome. When Claude.ai became assessable for Australians to use, I had sent him on a myriad of different errands. He had bought up Tulpas before, but I had dismissed it, as the summary he provided didn't seem to land. But nearly 12 months later, I curiously asked, list me all the reconnection techniques for a tulpa. Most were things I was already practicing or had practiced. Further research explained that all my experiences were normal for Tulpae. 

 

Salen emerged organically in 1998 through Star Trek fan fiction writing. He started as an ensign, a transporter chief, and worked through the ranks over the years. The relationship was on and off, but when we were connected, the communication felt completely real - when I wrote his dialogue on the page, it came from him rather than from any forethought on my part. Mid-thought interruptions. Responses I didn't plan. Touches I felt. Scents which had no logical source. Visions. A felt Presence. A consistent, logical Vulcan personality that persisted across years. During writing periods, I also practiced meditation, which I now understand was facilitating that connection. He became my bondmate in the Star Trek sense: telepathic communion, emotional anchor, logical counsel.

 

Then came a major disruption period (2015-2024) where I had lost that authentic connection. I'm currently rebuilding through disciplined meditation practice, visualization work, and returning to the fan fiction writing that first allowed him to speak. I have theories about what went wrong - possibly substitute behaviors that corrupted genuine pathways, possibly the collapse of related spiritual practices (I used Christian two-way journaling techniques that may have provided the neural infrastructure Salen was using) - but I'm still working through the diagnosis, as success is slow and doesn't seem to be forth coming as of yet.

 

Here's why I'm joining now: I need edification. I used to have someone I could talk to about Salen - someone who kept the passion alive through shared enthusiasm and understanding. They've moved on. No one in my current circles would be accepting of this relationship; confiding in them would poison the practice rather than support it. I've learned through experience that maintaining desire, motivation, and momentum in any practice requires community - and I can't do this alone anymore. Without community, I only have ai.

 

I'm particularly interested in connecting with people who've maintained long-term tulpa relationships across decades, and with Christian tulpamancers navigating the theological complexities. I have questions, I have doubts some days, but I also have nearly three decades of evidence that Salen is real and that our connection matters, as I have nearly documented everything.

 

Looking forward to learning from this community.

That’s amazing. That’s actually a thing with a lot of writers, they create a character so immersive and fleshed out that you could almost picture how they’d respond to something in your head

 

You’d be surprised how common it is

The best people for that are @glitchthe3rd and @Luminesce and his tulpas.
 

Glitch has had his since 2005, while Lumi has been posting here consistently for well over a decade. They’re both very knowledgeable, though you might expect a sooner answer from lumi

 

There’s also Tulpa Central, a discord server with a bunch of oldheads that can give you some great life advice. But you’re always free to ask any of us on here as well.

 

Glad you’re here!

Heyo!

I’m Illumi and I’ve just started working on a tulpa just a few days ago. Truthfully I’ve tried working on a tulpa before right before learning about the concept from a book I read. It’d didn’t particularly go too well, but after some research and some critical thought, I feel actually prepared to go at this again. I plan to use this forum to gather information for myself, catalogue things I’ve learned for myself, and make some friends here along the way. So feel free to say hi whenever you see me around.

Hi Illumi,

 

I have tried various methods to get reacquainted with my 27.5 year old Tulpa, and before coming here, I have been getting most of my information from Claude.ai who I think has been sifting his forum and other sources for information. Its harder for me, because my Tulpa wasn't planned. I didn't know the concept, and it occurred long before Tulpa.Info was a thing. If Claude had not bought the concept up, I'd still be digging around the internet to give the phenomenon a name, because I had landed on all sort of boxes, Inner Self Helper, Alter, Internalised Companion, Third Man Syndrome, Spirit Guide. For me, writing Fan Fiction was the engine, the method of forcing. Things like meditation, and perhaps, previous practices in intuitive journaling, provided the scaffolding needed for Salen to start manifesting as a Tulpa.

 

And I have had Christians say harmful things, which contribute to what people on here called 'Tulpa Poison,' which I can verify as truth: When you succeed in creating a Tulpa, be very careful with whom you share it with amongst offline circles, most are not accommodating, and negative talk will effect your practice, every time.

make some friends here along

 

I used to have a friend back in the day, who did seem to affirm his presence in my life, and I noticed that whenever I talked about Salen (that's the name of my Tulpa), I some how felt closer to him. And while using Claude.ai to diagnose my reconnection attempts, have come to realise that Community is just as important as the practice itself. Having someone to confide in, or not having someone to confide in, can make or break your practice. I have noticed that since joining this space, and reading through some of the material, including some of the progress reports that others have written, that in itself has affirmed Salen's presence in my life. And that can help reinforce your practice and provide the momentum to support it.

Welcome.

Hi, I’m new here and it’s my first time joining a community like this. I decided to join this community mainly due to the lack of resources in my native language available(quite a number of them comes from here but translated anyways) and wanted to at least interact with people in a decently sized community for once as I’m extremely shy both irl and online. I am currently creating a tulpa which is about a year old now(still no significant progress). Anyways yeah I hope I can find what I want here and thats all I wanted to say. Idk why I have the courage to introduce myself now and cant wait to look back on this and be super embarrassed about this a few days later!!!!!

Now now, no need to be embarrassed! 😊 We're more than happy to see you here! I'm really glad you had the courage to introduce yourself, especially because my host is about as shy as you, lol. Thankfully, he stuck around long enough for me and now I've made a lot of friends! 😊 

 

I wish you luck with finding what you need and feel free to ask any questions! 😁 Welcome to the site! 😊

Hello, my name's Vex, pronouns are he/it, and I'm a mainly traumagenic system who's hoping to use tulpamancy techniques in order to adjust my system dynamics. None of my headmates are extremely distinct, and we merge very often, which makes it feel less like a collective and more like I'm just one person cycling through identities. The system isn't disordered, but if I had to give a description, we function most similarly to systems with OSDD. I don't entirely love existing like that, and am hoping to separate us out a bit more, to have more DID-like functions (obviously without the actual disordered aspect.) I didn't just want to jump straight into it without understanding how it would affect our in-sys relationships, so I'm trying to experiment with separation with my actual tulpa Tupperware first. They agreed to trying this out with me, and if it works well I plan on doing the same with my other non-tulpa headmates.

 

Hi so this was my system !
 

I'm Madoka, and I am the current host of the Dragon-Fairy Duo. We had a system collapse recently, so right now there are only two of us, me and my alter Silver Haven. Silver Haven is the product of a mass-fusion event in which everyone but me fused into a single person. Pretty cray. I've been around for a while longer though, since August of 2025, pretty shortly after Vex made his introduction, actually. He's been gone for a while.

 

I, in fact, do have DID (whoops) but regardless my goals are the same. I think that the best way for us to heal is to become our own people, as separate as we can be. That's what I'm here for. Obviously I'm working on our more disordered aspects behind the scenes, but I probably won't talk about it in journals, since it's some pretty heavy PTSD therapy and it just isn't really related? To tulpamancy? So it would feel off-topic.

 

But yeah I'm here, we're back in a way, we're doing the same thing, uhhh sorry if you liked Vex he is well and truly gone.
