Do you have an unique ability in your dreams that you know that is impossible for you to do in real life? It could be that in your dreams, you might be able to control fire or some other element, be a psychic, have a sixth sense, use magic, or even be a Dragon Ball Z warrior.

As for me, I seem to have the ability to use magic in my dreams. This was particularly noticed when I was being attacked in a dream and the first thing that I did was use a spell to chase them off. As of recently, I've started sporting a sorcerer's staff during my dreams.

How about you? What's your dream power?

When I'm lucid, sparse as those occasions are, I can do just about anything. Aside from that, I have had several non-lucid dreams where I possessed telekinesis. Doesn't work so well in real life, unfortunately.

For me I usually have the ability to fly in acrobatic feats, telekinetic powers (like Moriarty said), and to have strange colored sparkles come off my hand to arm area much like NiGHTS does. (I think he must have some type of influence on my dreams XD) Mine you only when I become completely lucid in dreams. (I often become partly lucid but not all the way completely lucid... partly lucid I may not have all the powers I mentioned in dreams.)

Edit:
Forgot to add, and mind you this may be just as common... or at least I hope it is...
I can also dream scenery in 2d 3d game like, cartoony, real lifeish, abstract paintings, and pixels (game like again).
That is if that counts as a power...
Edit:
Forgot another one, this should be the last one I promise. XD
Turning into things so that I don't hurt. (Living things)
Dream example based on a real dream I had:
One time I was a store clerk or something and I was helping with restocking shelfs. Since I'm so short I had to use a latter to reach the higher areas. I had fell off but before I reached the ground I turned into a mouse so it would hurt less when I hit the ground.

I can transform into different types of creatures, and sometimes I have telekenetic powers.

However, my main ability is to alter the world around me and then lose control so that it backfires and turns into a nightmare. Lovely...

I have an ability to run into walls with incredible force.

But seriously? I'm not exactly able to fly per say, but I'm able to hop from wall to wall if they're close to each other for some reason. I rarely fight in my dreams, so I'm not sure if I have abilities other than that as magic and the like.

I tend to fly a lot. Unfortunately, it's more speed-oriented than it is control and acrobatics - I can barely steer for my life. And magic. I've been able to use it like Card Captor Sakura, using Ideya to chanel it and execute a pair of elemental spells based off said Ideya, and recently Harry Potter style.

I used to be able to use magic like the cardcaptors, now its just fly. I've gotten pretty good at controling and its helped save alot of my dreams from becoming nightmares ^^. Like in ones where you have to run away from predators, i can just fly away and be freeee XD

My best dream ability is going through walls. I can also draw really fast in my dreams.
I'm still working on flying- I cannot seem to gain altitude for the life of me. :|

Does it count if it's unintentional? I seem get visions by touching or looking at certain things, but I can never control how or when that happens. Heck, sometimes I don't even see the visions, I just suddenly gain knowledge I didn't have before.

I can fly (sort of), and sometimes I can make things appear.

I can also merge with my maren (Both with me knowing and not with me knowing). A lot of times, I'm already my nightmaren without realizing it until I wake up.

Unintentional talents do count, but having the ability to gain knowledge and visions just from touching and looking at things is pretty cool. Does it happen when you're lucid?

There are a lot of unique abilities. It seems that defying gravity (whether it's flight or levitation) is an ability that a lot of people can do (so how come I can't *whines*).

It depends on the dream I guess. Every dream I have is different and it always feels like watching a movie, I've had very few lucid dreams and the lucid dreams I've had I haven't done much in them. The most exciting ones are the ones that just happen. In one dream I had a flying bycial, I guess that counts as a power. humm...come to think of it, other than that I didn't really have any powers other than that. Whenever I see me, I'm normal. I can't do anything I guess. Usually I dream of other things, not me...sometimes I'm other people in my dreams, so that can't really be a power if it's somebody elses right? (eg, Maya from Pheonix Wright and I was once Yami Yugi from Yugioh. ) I think I may have had the ability to control fire once...but again I don't think that was really me persay...

I can do a lot of things in my dreams. I can fly, turn invisible, go thru solid objects, make stuff spontaneously combust and float, use magic, and in dire situations, make time in the dream stop. It takes a lot of willpower to do though, I've only done it three times. It makes my head hurt, lol. I've made stuff appear (i.e., swords) too. Mind you, I can only do these when I'm in my dream persona. If I'm just normal me, I can't do squat, except for my bizarre ability to attract bloodthirsty vampires. ^^;;

I'm getting very good at doing stuff in my dream. I discovered that I can bend the world around me and change what I'm dreaming. It takes a lot of concentration in my dream to do that. I as well can use magic and psychic abilities in my dreams with little effort now.

I've yet to become lucid, so I have no idea.

I can change people and things just by thinking about them...which actually isn't as fun as it sounds, as I seem to be controlled by my hormone-crazy id in my dreams. It'd be nice if for once I could keep my original personality without going power mad, or at the very least setting limitations on myself, or being able to experiment. (Angers at his control freakish-ness) XD

*Looks up at what he said before* Alright, that's a little bit of an exaggeration, and that's only when I'm completely in control, which lasts maybe 5-10 minutes before I lose my focus.

Anyways, just wanted to be honest. Don't want it to look like I'm trying to brag about some kind of nonexistent ability *sheepishsmile*.

I can hover and super jump. When I do hover, I can lean over and fly, and usually I float back down. I usually come down at weird times, like on power lines. ^_^

I can shape change...but it's sporadic and I usually turn into a monster thingie. Yep.

I've been thinking long and hard about this topic, and the only Dream Ability I seem to have is that I sometimes can swim through air or snow, exactly like I'd do in water. I haven't had a dream like that in ages though, but it's the closest thing to a dream ability I got.

My main ability in dreams is flight, I think. Although some dreams don't require flight but something else, like magic (which I oftenly fail to use) In my childhood, many of my dreams were nightmares, but nowadays I see dreams like a "real life", which's good. I'm afraid of liking dreams too much, 'cause then I won't be liking the reality. Sometimes destiny gives me a gift of bright dream, in which I can see every detail and which seems just another reality, where unbelievable things happening. I oftenly use flight to escape from danger :)

Oh dear. Dream abilities? Let's have a look-see... *thumbs through Dream Journal*
Well, it's almost a given that I can fly. I tend to do so quite a lot in my dreams. I tend to fly NiGHTS-style, but when I was younger I used my arms more like wings. Sometimes this power merges with another ability of mine-- shapeshifting-- and I fly that way. Usually I turn into a Celebi (the Pokemon), but I have become a bat once before and have actually "merged" with some of the Jewel Monsters--creatures I know from my dreams-- to do so. This "merging" doesn't only occur with them, however. Several times I have been able to put my mind in someone else's and see through their eyes. I tend to do this unconsciously, but it's an amazing ability.
My shapeshifting doesn't always involve flying... I have become a Virtual On Fei-Yen once, and twice I randomly turned into Haruko from FLCL. Don't ask me why, though.
Besides shapeshifting, I also have self-transformation powers, but they are very hard to activate. I have several emotion-induced forms in my dreams that I can become through this. That and I have actually gone through some "magical girl" transformations...
I can also teleport and summon random items, but they both have a 50% chance of working. Either I'm too convinced my dream is reality or they just won't cooperate, but it becomes quite frustrating at times. This is usually more the case with summoning, though. I tend to effortlessly teleport around a lot, albeit without really willing to do so. I have discovered that too much willpower kills my abilities sometimes-- it's better to just believe and let them come by themselves.
I apparently also have "magical" attack abilities, as I see some other dreamers here also possess. Mine vary immensely, though... either I borrow some Jewel Monster techniques, use attacks from the waking world (the kind of abilities you see on TV) or simply "energize" my emotions into an attack force. Once I was even able to shoot fire from my fingertips!
This is the ability that fails on me the most, though. However, when it does work it has some serious strength. Sometimes I can only get the attacks to work halfway.
I can also influence my dream surroundings to a very small extent. I feel this is because the worlds I enter are just as self-maintained as our own Earth is. I have no right to be "editing" them!
I also have experienced some "one-time" dream powers... such as invisibility and sonic voice. Plus I tend to walk through walls often...sometimes even ceilings and floors.
And despite the many, many times Selph has buddied up with me in my dreams, I have never seen him use any special abilities. Oh well. Who knows what the future holds?
*closes Dream Journal* I guess that's it for me, then. I apologize if that was a little long, but when I get into a subject so dear to my heart, I tend to talk a lot.
Thank you for your time! I enjoyed reading up on your fantastic abilities too! <3

*Sees a Celebi*

Finally!!! A Celebi!!! *Catches it only to find out it was spinningcannon* Sorry about that...

Has anyone changed into a completely different person other than themselves in their dreams (not counting merging)?

EDIT: I only recently picked up an ability that's similar to Kirby's Copy or MegaMan.EXE's Double Soul, where I can temporarily wear the costume of another character and have control over some of their abilities. Not sure if this counts...

Depending on the dream, I can do many things. After a dream a while ago, I've found I can do just about anything involving shapeshifting-type things. Just a few days ago, I made myself, so people actually reached through me.

One of the biggest things I've been honing lately is my singing ability, specifically in my dreams. It wasn't until about two years ago that I realized my songs were so powerful in dreams. I've changed a lot of old dreams through it.

My only limitation seems to be that I don't like flying, so...I don't. hehe

- Flying definitely. I'm usually flying around in dreams, lucid or not. However, its usually a very labored flight... its difficult to do or tiring... but somtimes if I'm lucid I can fly like its nothing.

- Telekenesis occassionally.

- Breathing under water. (usually I wake up and realize I have my face in the pillow haha)

- Awesome powers of flirtation where I can get any guy I want... (but that's usually true in RL too ;P lol)

I can do a lot of stuff in my dreams. Let's see...

I can fly, although like someone previously said, I also tend to not being able to get much altitude, so I'm still practicing. I can go trought walls, usually when I'm flying away to escape something (I don't usually run, I'm faster flying), so I just "switch mode" and go trought walls. I can turn invisible, althought I see myself visible and that makes me confused, but people around me seem to not notice me even if they're looking for me, so I'm guessing it works (althought I have had people that seems to know where I am. I once got caught because of a damn old guy that was meditating on a roof that pointed at me and screamed to the gentle officers with guns where I was. ;__:wub:. I can also swimm and not having to breath, being the swimm part also a power, since I can't swimm in RL. More...

Well, I can't think of much more now, but there's one problem here : I only seem to be able to do this things when I'm merged with a certain maren. I haven't tryed to do it alone yet.

Pity.

Edit : I forgot the most important ones. @.@ And they don't require me to be merged. In my dreams I can also go back in time. I once had a dream that I think I wrote in my Dream Jouranl where I'm in some war game, and later on the general came to congratulate my great work. Buut my gun shot him instead of saving him from an enemy that was behind him, so I was able to go back in time and shoot the other guy instead of him. And I'm also able of teletransporting items. Takes some tries but I end up teletransporting what I want to where I want. : D

Well in my dreams they usually change somewhat relating to what I did during the day. Like I have fire abilities because I lit a match. Or ice traits because I was playing with ice cubes xD (I like playing with ice cubes its fun :D)

But the one I keep getting the most is like darkness. Its really scary because I'm afraid of the dark. :D But shadows are always around me and stuff.. creepy >.>

I can make things go in slow motion, breathe underwater, and pwn at Super Smash Bros. Melee (even though I'm not that good in real life.) That's it. I imagine I could do more if I could get lucid...

And I'm serious! My dreams powers really do include being awesome at Smash Bros! Yeah, I can't believe it either.

(Weeks after post...) Behold, for there is a lack of posting!

Flying. I used to flap my arms to fly, but now I can just go NiGHTS-style. I also am able to change my arms into wings. That was to help me fly more easily, though, so I haven't done it in a while. I can make objects appear out of nowhere. They used to be only partly there (I could feel them but not see them) but recently I was able to bring up a match from thin air that was completely solid and visible. It worked, too. :P. There are other things I can manipulate somewhat, such as weather (but it was only a light drizzle).

That's all I can think of.
