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 attempt to eat the cloud. You try to bite into it, but end up with a mouthful of mist. Oh well. It's cool and refreshing, a delicious drink. Even though it's not like fluffy cotton candy, it's still good.


Nice. I guess I'll try to fly somewhere and look around. Perhaps increasing my perception or endurance?

You try to break its head off but you're not strong enough.
Maybe you could do something creative?

It's pretty self explanatory...how smart you are, how you notice things, etc.

Can I hover near them and ask "Hey dudefella, what's the hap?" because I'm a cool guy like that. In my dreams.

Whoa, what an unexpected turn of events. Why would they shoot a cool guy? Anyway, I'll take cover or fly up until they can't see me.

Yeah, I see him. Regal jerk. Thinks he can fire arrows at coolguy's without any consequence. Flip him the bird.
Then, keep watching.
