I would very much like not to request any special point-buyable things other than the Dreaming skill proper (i.e. B188) and maybe the ability that allows moving from an individual dreamsphere to the dreamworld global without use of equipment. I'm definitely not inclined to give PCs the ability to fully command parts of the dream outside their individual dreamspheres (and inviting guests there should be very very difficult, if possible at all).

Things are probably even more sharply visible when e.g. there are only 100 visitors at the Lake-upon-Lightning back in the day, but a whole megapolis worth of visitors the next year. Quote:

Re: Cosmology and game mechanics for Dream Worlds
Can they appear near each other if they fall asleep watching the same movie, listening to the same song, reading the same book? Maybe a bonus to the Dream roll for being near each other. Pick something obscure and not dangerous so you don't end up in a crowd or in danger when you appear.

I believe this is where I originally pulled the rules and then modified it for my campaign bible - though I do remember having the idea long before that. Heck, I think this was something we discussed during the playtest. I know Rank and Status were picked apart heavily.

From what I can gather of your ideas his stuff might be close to what you are looking for. While it is not gaming related it would suit the general feel I think you are going for. It's been 5 or so years since I have specifically read through a series of his stuff that took place in the Dream World. |
