so you wake up as your dream self if you fall unconscious right? what happens if you fall unconscious and then bleed out? or if you fall unconscious, die on your dream bed (a bit after sleeping) would you go god mode in your dream self?

You Wake Up as your Dream Self if the Dream Self has awoken, otherwise you have normal Dreams. Jade was awake for years, for example, but John wasn’t when the game Started, it took him a few more hours. All of his life John’s had normal Dreams, but after the Dream Self wakes up, you switch consciousness between the two. If you die, you need to be kissed to properly wake up as your Dream Self, unless you’re already awake as your Dream Self in which case I suppose you would just stay awake?

Also, the one to go God Tier is always the Dream Self if you use the Quest Beds and not the Sacrificial Crypts. Quest Beds share the damage your body has suffered with your Dream Self’s, warps it to the Battlefield, and Ascends it to God Tier. The only way your physical body can go God Tier by itself is by dying in the Prospit/Derse Slab, arguably, when there’s just one of your left.
