[QUOTE="Yair, post: 1596635, member: 10913"] As I've just recently noted on another thread, Occult Lore (by Atlas Games) has a section on dream magic and the dream world. It is essentially a set of rules for lucid dreaming, using dream-points to change the "reality" of the dream through the new skill Lucid Dreaming. The idea seems interesting, but complicated. There are also a few spells, and a prestige class, and new domains, templates ("beasts of the Id"), and so on - all linked to this mechanic and this vision of the dream world. It sounds like you pretty much know what you want, so I am not sure if that would be of assistance. BTW, Occult Lore is based to a large degree on The Mysteries, an Ars Magica accessory available through RPGNow in pdf form; it has more detailed rules and mythology regarding the dream world, such as mentioning the island of Lemnos (where morpheus and his son live, IIRC), thoughts on the structure of the mental microcosm and its relation to the macrocosm, and so on. If you are interested mainly in flavor, I would recommend getting the (cheaper) The Mysteries, personally. But again, it is not a d20 product. Neither book focuses on dreams, mind you; both discuss it only to a limited degree. Yair, feeling like an Atlas pimp. [/QUOTE]
