This RPG is very simple, and very complex at the same time.
Here's what is happening; you are going insane.
Crazy right?
Well I can't really explain it, I'm just a kid. Why don't we have your doctor tell you all about it?

"The patient's mental condition is steadily deteriorating," reported the psychiatrist. "The longer that they live, the more serious the effects. Right now, all the patient is experiencing is vivid dreaming. But soon that will turn into real-life hallucinations. There have been rumors that the patient's dreams are somehow precognitive. I myself stand with the belief that the patient acts on their own dreams. Thus, they are self-fulfilling predictions, not in any way mystical. We have been able to synthesize a machine that can tell us exactly what the patient is dreaming at any given time, and we seem to have noticed something. If the patient is dreaming something frightening, their heart rate actually spikes as if they were really in a frightening situation. If they are injured in the dream, the injury somehow manifests itself. Although the dream is in no way reality, the patient believes in the reality of this dream so sincerely that if they are injured in the dream, they will subconsciously either injure themselves, or they will have some sort of seizure or heart attack. This form of lucid dreaming is becoming more widespread and dangerous. The longer the patient stays in this comatose state, the more vivid their dreams will become, to the point where dreaming death will actually mean their death. So far, we have been unable to wake them from this neverending dream, but we will continue to try."

So basically, you're dreaming, you can't wake up, and if you die in the dream you're dead. But this is your imagination! Although you obviously can't just godmod, imagination is the key to success in this game. So think about what you could do. Not all dreams are bad dreams by the way; some are good.

You fall into a deep sleep on your own bed...

You wake back up to see your house is gone. Your bed is gone. You're standing in the middle of absolutely nowhere. You look around. It's the middle of the night in the middle of the desert. You listen. Nothing greets your ears. There is absolutely nothing around you but dust and the night sky.
What will you do?

As you say this, suddenly a roar of flame booms in front of you. You suddenly feel yourself falling...falling...down the darkest and most cavernous split in the earth to the abyss of hell. It's fiery, it's filled by the damned, and the devil is presiding over it all.
What will you do?

You fall asleep in the great outdoors, in the soft grass staring up at the constellations in the starry sky...

You awake in the darkness, in the middle of nothingness. In the darkness of the void of space...you try to take a breath and realize there's no oxygen. You start to suffocate.

You wake up to see that you're in a huge building. It's crammed with hundreds of people, all wearing suits and ties or dresses, all walking around you, typing, writing, printing. It's like a giant cubicle.

You wake up again. This time you're in someplace entirely different; the top of the Empire State Building. You're standing on the edge looking down at all the little people below.

You wake up to find yourself trapped in some sort of thick, syrupy liquid. It's clear but has high viscosity. You can barely move in the stuff. What will you do?
