Your Name: Leah Dream World Name (if any): Inception Canon or Original?: Canon: Inception
Description: Like the dream world of Passing, this dream world is built on the premise of shared dreaming and the ability to invade and interact within others' dreams - as well as how someone might use that ability. It also contains the strong concept of dreams-within-dreams. It is important to note that unexpected elements or death may provide a 'kick' to jolt the dreamer awake.
Specific Locations: Anywhere people create for themselves. Characters will have the ability to alter the dreamscape at will, as quickly and as often as they like. Be careful not to build from memory. It might be a good idea to mark each dream with the location in the subject line.
Dangers or Threats: If you invade someone else's dream, be careful of 'projections', manifest parts of the dreamer's subconscious that know something foreign has entered and will try to expel it.
Building a dream or dreamscape from memories can result in starting (or continuing) to lose grasp on which is real and which is not. Be aware of that.
Objects or Rewards: Each character should have a 'totem', an object that has been weighted or otherwise modified. Its slightly different characteristics will feel correct only in their own dream - a way to test whether the dream is theirs or someone else's. Characters who possess a totem for this exploration should feel free to have it in future dreams however much they wish.
Extra Notes: In the canon, dreams are used to steal information - or implant ideas. The latter can be highly dangerous and is definitely morally questionable.
Links to Pictures: n/a; they can all be very different.
