    Might as well

    You know, it's been a while since I've said anything. Might as well make a bit of an update.
    Long story short: I've been burn out for a long while on uh, basically everything.

    It's been a long time since I've been on this site. Lot has changed. I'm not writing anymore. I'm pretty much just gonna go through my read it later list and that's probably gonna be it for my time on this site. That's all.

    I'm kind of okay...I think. Bit of an update.

    Hey. I'm... I'm sorry. There are a lot of projects, stories, friendships I've been putting no effort into. I just... can't find the will in me to do things, sometimes. Y'know? I wish I had the will I used to have.
    I've been... on and off. Memories haunt me, and while I've gotten used to things... I.. It still hurts, I still feel kinda empty sometimes..

    An explanation, and an apology.

    Hey, there. It's nice to see you guys again.
    I owe you all an apology for just up and leaving... what, almost two months ago? Yeah. Things happened, and I just... I couldn't do this for a while. Couldn't be here. I'm sorry for leaving without an explanation, so here it is now.

Tulpa · 9:50am Mar 5th, 2016

*holds a cross and stands in a circle of salt* Back, Supernatural fans! Back! *throws holy water at them, they hiss and creep back* Perfect. *looks down at the hole in my hand from the water* ..crud.

Now that I have that randomness out of my system..
Hello! It's me, SpiritOfDancingFlames! ^-^ And this is my cooking show!
Today, we're gonna make a rare delicacy - Tulpa!

Those that actually know what a Tulpa is, that was intended as a joke. I'm not planning on eating one.

For those that don't know what a Tulpa is, it is a mind-constructed imaginary friend that is made and actually has its own consciousness and stuff, etc. It's not magic, it's made through about 100+ hours of pure concentration, more or less. For more, go here.
There is a supernatural Tulpa, but obviously, that's not real. It works in a similar way. Go watch the show if you want to learn more. (Hence the opening wierdness)

Aaanyway. I recently became aware of this, and I am thinking that I would like to create one. It seems like a brilliant thing, one which I think could be very fun and useful, too. A writing buddy that's with you all the time - Perfect! ^-^
so, yeah. Thoughts?
That's really all I have to say.

His name is Taz. He likes geometry.

You have a Tulpa? That's awesome ^-^

3792751 No, that was meant as a suggestion for the tulpa you're suggesting.

As for my own tulpa, I'd argue that most of the characters in my original novels have enough of a disturbingly strong presence in my mind to qualify.

3792755
Oh, okay ^-^ I think that I'd make one that likes Physics, though. I could really use help with that class x.x
That makes a lot of sense ^-^ making a tulpa and creating a character aren't all that different, Tulpas are just a few classes higher.

3792776 My characters once spent a thousand words contemplating suicide when they were supposed to be leaping into action, and I wasn't consciously in control of my hands until they had said their piece. Giant wolves have blotted out the skyline when I look up. I once thought I was in the middle of a thunderstorm, assembling a web of evidence linking a crime boss to all of his illicit dealings, then mother called me for supper and I realized it wasn't even dark outside.

How many tiers higher can I go?

3792786
There's a tier above any other, only the elite are able to master it.
Imposition.
It is very, very rare. Only a few people have achieved it, and they are few and far between. But these few individuals can self-induce a visual hallucination of their Tulpa. It is almost a thing of lore, but there are some that have mastered this.

3792787 I've felt his hands on my shoulders. Seriously once got a back rub from my tulpa.

3792796
*nods* that's definitely a thing, but visually seeing them in the real world is the endgame. If you can achieve that, you've risen as high as you can possibly go.

3792800 ...

I think I'm scared of my own brain now.

3792806
People can actually allow their Tulpa to 'possess' them once they've reached a certain level of 'consciousness of self'. They allow their Tulpa to talk and act for them, kind of like lucid dreaming, almost.
It's not like Schizophrenia, it's completely self-induced. Your Tulpa won't, like, seize control from you, unless it's to save you from danger or keep you from harming yourself.

3792813 Uh-huh, yeah. Still something deeply unsettling about a six-legged armored alien lion taking over your mind.

3792820
Cx I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read that.
Most Tulpas are human, though I met someone (There's a chat room for that site I linked) that made one that is a pony - started with one of those plastic pony toys, created a tulpa who is very nice ^-^ I wouldn't recommend an alien, though.

Tulpa. For some reason it reminds me of an Oompa Loompa.

Good job. Now I'm devoted to making one before my 14th birthday (A year and 2 months from now.) Welp, I'm kinda tired. G'night!

3792786

I feel you might've had too many doses of random today. (Just because it sounds really wierd, what you wrote.)

I'm going to give my tulpa its shape and consciousness, but then let it choose what it likes and doesn't like.

4043187 ...

Today?

Dude, I overdose on random every two minutes.

Fairly well, however, the stress from school made me nearly abandon them for a while, sadly. (I didn't want to catch them in it, a guide I read said stress can damage them, sorta) So, they're not going as well as I'd wish.
