When You're In Your Wonderland....

[Guest Riy]

Do you keep the same self-image of yourself?

What I mean is, when you 'project' yourself into the wonderland, do you look the same as you do in 'real-life' or does anything about you change?

 

I ask this because I noticed when I'm in my thought-place that I'm somewhat shorter than how I think of myself. I keep myself in shape (I'm not a gym rat or anything, but I maintain myself) but I noticed my projected self seems to be pre-gym. I also have dark brown / black hair but when projected I see myself as having a lighter dirty blonde hair color.

 

Does anyone else notice changes to themselves in their Wonderland? I'm not complaining by any stretch, I'm comfortable with myself I'm just curious if anyone else notices this at all with themselves?

 

Cheers!

I'm usually however I looked before I went in. There's a mirror in the bathroom before my room, so I usually get a full body shot that clarifies before I turn and hit the bed for forging. So, no matter what, I think the only thing that would change it would be if I could cast off what I saw and sort of remake myself. I'm a little too busy with my little tulpa to do that, though.

This is an interesting question. Well, here goes.

 

I find that I usually make myself a few inches shorter to be even with Chase (my tulpa) without even thinking about it. Also, my long hair isn't as much of a mess.

 

I also will wear different clothes in Wonderland. What I'm wearing just depends on the day and the weather of our Wonderland. It's typically shorts and a t-shirt.

 

I've also experimented with changing my own form consciously. For one session, I made myself into a dragon-lizard type of person with wings. It was kind of fun, but it took a bit of mental effort, so I stopped afterwards to focus more on Chase. If I ever get comfortable with my progress, I may look into permanently changing my form.

 

Er, does that answer the question?

 

EDIT: It would seem that my tulpa continued my work for me, and worked on that dragon form for me until it was totally completed and presented it to me. So I now have two full forms. That's cool.

It's always first person, so it's hard for me to say. I notice my glasses sometimes, just like in real life.

My features are a little hard to see, as if I'm in perpetual shadow. Generally, though, I try to look the same as I do IRL.

 

I usually wear dark clothing, similar to how I dress in real life. I'm not Gothic or whatever, I just wear dark clothes.

 

I can fly in my wonderland, and I sprout Hydreigon wings whenever I do so, something I didn't do at first, but just sort of...happened.

 

Also, I mostly see in third person, but sometimes, I go in first person, to try to strengthen my mind's eye.
