And to think that I wasn't loved! Thanks for the acceptance; not just from Tia and Bris, but from all of you. When it comes to psychism, saying nothing is as good as saying, "I accept you for who you are." So much hate for anything different in Tennessee... Anyway, I haven't been able to put this down since I found out that my theories are not only plausible, but shared. Finding a psychic to talk to (regardless of skill) is hard, even on the internet. Needless to say, this is a rare occurrence for me. During my spare time between classes today, I typed up some experiment drafts, and I think you'd find them interesting. They center around our two hypotheses - your and Tia's individuality theory, and my subconscious/tulpic resource consumption theory - and one "linking" hypothesis that states that Tulpae can use psychism to add realism to themselves, improve their lifestyle, and aid their creators. Just let me know how you'd like to get the file - it's Word 2010. Also, a few developments with my tulpa. She has narrowed down our name list to two: Taye (meaning "Completing") and Mieli (meaning "Mind"). Both work with me, but she gives equal emotional response to both. Gotta wait till she's vocal to know for sure what she wants. She was also very intrigued with my explanation of my perception of time; the pressures were the hardest they've been. And she hates Taylor Swift. We're gonna get along.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but was "Power Forcing," as you called it, derived from psychic healing and/or energy manipulation? I can't help but feel that it's a "spin-off" of sorts (By the way, it works splendidly. Well done in being an innovator!). As for y'all's theory of individual tulpae's psychic and endurance talents, I find it to be 100% plausible. Of course, we'll need to run some tests before validation, but, based on the most basic descriptions of a tulpa, it's completely reasonable to suggest that they have their own talents and skills, not just personality. It may even be possible that their skills exceed your own, seeing as though they have so much more access to the brain and subconscious thought. If you know about psi constructs, try forming a psiball and just play catch with Tia, Blackjack, and Murky. Depending on their ability to "catch" and throw the ball back (considering they don't have hands, how they do so is up to them), we can determine their individual basic psychic ability. Of course, some may not be suited for energy manipulation; one may be better at empathy, and another better at pre-cognition. We're just getting a feel for it here. I'd join you, but my tulpa is still very undeveloped. Speaking of, she has been deviating quite a bit lately. I originally intended for her to be a unicorn of original design, but then she deviated into Twilight Sparkle. That's fine, it's not much of a change, not even in the color palette. However, not much later, she did a complete overhaul into Luna. It was pretty jarring; size, color, physical composition of her "mane," addition of wings...the whole deal. Is so much deviation typical, or is she just exceedingly dynamic? I don't mind that she is deviating. In fact, I embrace it. But, I need her to make up her mind before imposition... Oh, and as a side-note, anyone/tulpa else who wants to assist Bris, Tia, and I in our science, feel free to post experiences/phenomena/results.

I don't mind it at all, just know that I don't have much experience in TK/PK myself, practice-wise. I can put my entire practice of psychism into one phrase: "A lot of reading, not much doing." That doesn't mean I haven't done any, it's just the ratio of education-to-practice is pretty low. I'm actually kind of surprised that you have been thinking the same thing. Not many people know that psychism is a real thing. I have a question for you, though. Have you ever attempted anything consciously? That "seeing through Tia's eyes" thing, I think that was a combination of astral projection and level 1 empathy, but the catch is that it was done subconsciously. In other words, she functioned as an anchor for projection and siphoned information into you that you did not consciously notice, and it was used by your senses in the same way that a tulpa is - it's just the source of the information was real, and not generated. It occurred so deep in you mind, that not even Tia knew that you guys did it. I was wondering if you guys took it beyond "accident" and into "experiment." Once we narrow down whether it was psychic or not, we can add more practical application.

Alright, here goes. I read this forum front cover to back, and I have to say, everyone here has touched me a little. You know that feeling you get from reading a good book, and you feel like you know the characters? That's what this feels like. For the past week, I've been reading every individual post, laughing at Riz and Crep, sympathizing for those who accidentally lost their tulpae, being angry at trolls and the like, and scanning for Bris's posts for tips (his process has been working for me). Not only has it brought me its fair share of laughs and feels, it inspired me to create my own tulpa (she does not yet have a name). I began work on her last Friday (the 8th), and I believe that today (the 11th), she became sentient (about 10-15 hours of forcing + countless passive). I can't be certain, because I'm new, of course, but my emotional responses have more than doubled since this morning, and she does some things on her own. It may be an early form of sentience. Or accidental puppeting, who knows. Anyway, onto the core reason I'm here. My tulpa is modeled after a unicorn (exact form still undecided), which means she has magical abilities. The problem, as you all know, is that tulpae cannot interact with the physical world. Now, what process can you think of that involves moving things with the mind? Maybe... telekinesis? Before I am marked off as crazy (even among this crowd), let me say that I have been an amateur psychic for something close to a year. I can't yet perform applicable telekinesis, but I have made things like fire and paper twitch, so I know that it isn't complete B.S. Psychism is a very belief-driven discipline, much like tulpamancy in its early stages. If you believe it to happen, it will. It's also based off of very similar visualization principles, and they both deeply involve parts of the mind that few understand. I see no reason they can't go hand-in-hand. My plan with my tulpa is to allow her to use my mental resources (when she becomes fully imposed, of course) to use telekinesis and the like to interact with the world. Nothing big, like flipping cars or crushing skulls, but things like opening doors or turning pages in a book. In addition to telekinesis, she could use subconscious empathy to siphon information into my brain from her eyes, making her able to do lots of things on her own. (I.E. Browse the web, play video games, write a novel, tell me how traffic is, etc.) I got this idea from reading a post from Brisinero, very early in the forum. It mentioned being able to see from his tulpa, Celestia's, eyes while driving, and it would still be accurate to what was happening in reality. I immediately linked this to both astral projection and level 1 empathy, both topics I've done research on, but not had a catalyst to attempt with. My intentions (alongside companionship, self-awareness, the experience, etc.) are to use my tulpa to be a "visual aid" and practice partner for my psychism. What do you guys think? Tl;dr: Gonna use psychic to let my tulpa do things.
