Since a dream self serves as a person's avatar during their sleep, their mind seems similarly hazy to that of a sleeping person. Consequently, they act similar to "normal" sleeping people: free-spirited, absent-minded, immune to second thoughts, forgetful, and somewhat irrational.

==Use as an Extra Life==
A dream self can be used as a sort of "extra life" within the game, should the "real" self of a player die. However, this is not an automatic process and a dream self suffers the same wounds as the real self after some delay. This implies that if some trigger event does not take place within some period after the real self dies, the dream self will die as well.
There are two methods to trigger the revival as a dream self. Being kissed by a prince/princess (in other words, any player) is one of them. Dying on the [[Quest Bed]] is the other one, but it's part of the more complex process of ascending to god tier. Both methods revert any damage the dream self has already "copied" from the dying real self.
When a dream self is used as an "extra life", or to ascend to god tier, it seems to lose its special properties, including the altered state of mind (although god tier status comes with a new set of powers and abilities).

Despite the additional powers and abilities, Dream selves still retain mortality.

A dream self is another feature of the wonderful world of the Incipisphere; an alter ego that's supposed to awaken whenever the real person falls asleep. Dream selves are not independent entities, but simply representations of the dreamers.

Dream selves operate from lavish towers on the moons of Prospit and Derse, in dream duplicates of their real bedrooms. Whether one's dream self exists on Prospit or Derse appears to be determined by or associated with particular personality traits, perhaps placing each player in the Kingdom that they are most suited to, or manifesting players on the appropriate moon in accordance with their self-image and projection of themselves. In the context of the extended zodiac, the personal quality that reflects moon-assignation is referred to as Lunar Sway and can be applied to people regardless of whether or not they have a dream self (including in the real world), as it is determined by personality. Lunar Sway is a key factor in determining one's extended zodiac true sign.

If a dream self is not available, the corresponding troll will appear in The Abyss when asleep.

Dream selves are projections of what the players want themselves to be.

Dream selves also have the ability to fly. Dream selves are usually asleep when the real self is awake, and awakening a dream self causes the real self to fall asleep immediately.

Awakening

The method of awakening one's dream self is to face (often unpleasant or traumatic) things one has not before.

It's possible that the dream self of one player in every session (potentially always the Hero of Space) starts out awake.
