WARNING: Tulpamancy can be incredibly dangerous if not handled correctly and depending on

the type of tulpa you have or if you possess any mental disorders/illnesses that can affect your reality or

cause dissociative states (DID and Schizophrenia are two examples)! Do not mishandle or ignore the

warnings, or you may get mentally damaged, traumatized, or can end up in a very tough situation, do not

go against the warnings or steps! If you attempt something dangerous in Tulpamancy or go against

the warnings, that is at your own risk! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Another thing to note: Make sure you are completely sure that you wish to spend the rest of

your life with another being in your mind, as developing a tulpa takes time, responsibility, love, and

effort! A tulpa is just the same as anyone else, and they deserve to be treated just like any other person,

and that they are not disposable!

Section One: Introduction

Such an unknown art to humankind despite it existing since ancient Tibet with Buddhist Monks

as a way to train against their fears, this art is known as Tulpamancy, the art of summoning or creating a

sentient being within your mind that can take any form they wish, develop near-otherworldly powers, and

be beneficial in numerous ways. Purpose-wise, a tulpa can have a myriad of things they can perform from

being a normal friend, lover, moral support, and/or can fulfill the role of a family member, but most

Tulpamancers create a tulpa for general companionship. Tulpamancy is an obscure practice that has

survived the millennials with relatively small numbers of Tulpamancers compared to the population, but

the exact number is only in the mere ten thousands. Despite the outweighing factors, Tulpamancy has still

remained within society as something that is considered strange, outlandish, and demonic in some ways

when viewed by certain religious parties. Before assumptions are made, Tulpamancy is not the work of a

cult, magic, or anything that is considered mythical, but a theory pinned on the creation of a tulpa by how

the human brain creates a separate network (the tulpa's conscious) via the use of mirror neurons. A

practice such as Tulpamancy is incredibly difficult to evidence due to it being within one's mind, but it is

also described as a "experience it to know it" practice due to the lack of neurology done on Tulpamancy,

thus leading to less of a scientific answer for the inner workings of the practice. Creating a tulpa can be a

lengthy process-- spanning over the course of an instant to many weeks of forcing before the tulpa

becomes sentient along with developing other skills; the amount of forcing it takes for a tulpa to become

sentient is a variable and cannot be accurately gauged. Many skills such as independence, vocality,

visualization, imposition, possession, switching, parallel processing, and fusion are some of

the main skills, as not all skills of Tulpamancy are well known. Each skill will be delved into on how to

practice and train said skill and to generally develop a tulpa efficiently with several techniques for most

skills along with the two types of forcing involved as well as other mental constructs. There are not

only those skills, but disorders such as LSS/SLS and FLS, the three types of tulpas and how each

one develops differently, ethics with the practice and the varying zones regarding a tulpa's

possible threat level that they could possibly own. For readers who have been entranced by the art of

Tulpamancy and wish to learn it, this guide is meant to tread upon unheard of skills and abilities along

with the more obscure (and precarious) aspects. First of all, the process of creating a tulpa is necessary

before anything else.

Section Two: Explanation of a Tulpa

To put it simply, a tulpa is a sentient, mental construct that is his or her own being that is bonded

to the host's mind, but can think independently from the host, have a different personality, and can gain a

set of skills over time. A tulpa can take the form of anything one's mind can conjure similar to that of an

imaginary friend and they can perform any action that can be thought of such as spawning a creature or

item into the host's mind, the physical plane as a vision or using the mind's eye, or a mindscape.

Almost anything about a tulpa can be incredibly varied from voice, form, personality, it is simply to the

limit of the host's mind. However, a tulpa cannot interact with the physical plane unless switched with

the host or proxying, but can create the illusion of interacting with the host and only the host using the

five, basic senses with enough practice known as imposition, or controlled hallucinations. In addition, a

tulpa can indeed appear in the real world only in the host's perspective either by being seen through the

host's mind's eye or literally with the practice of visual imposition. Where a tulpa is most of the time

is personal preference to the tulpa and can of course vary from constantly being on the physical plane or

within the host's mind or even both as an even balance. To be rid of a tulpa is the act of putting the tulpa

into dormancy, which can be done in two ways: forgetting about the tulpa, or putting them into

dormancy yourself. Luckily with dormancy, a tulpa can always be brought out of dormancy by focusing on

them once more, but dormancy is described as slowly fading out of existence and it is generally

indescribable, as the tulpa loses consciousness. How it has been described by some such as one of the

researchers for this guide described his tulpa, Kai going dormant by starting off by Kai appearing to be

asleep, but he eventually decomposed into nothingness. The capabilities of a tulpa is near limitless, as

they can perform anything a person can do without interacting with the physical plane, but they can do

even more than an average thanks to the powers they develop over time or with enough practice.

Section Three: The Three Types of Tulpas

Tulpas can be categorized into three different types of tulpa depending on how they were created,

and each type of tulpa develops differently and can be more difficult or simple to develop depending on

their origins. All three types of tulpas include: natural tulpas, summoned tulpas, and semi-natural

tulpas. Summoned tulpas are the least likely to be a threat, and it is debatable of which of the other two

types are more dangerous. Being the least dangerous, summoned tulpas are created willingly by the host

and develop the skills vocality, visualization, and imposition first before the other two. Natural

tulpas are created by the host experiencing an a incessant and powerful emotion over an extended period

of time and natural tulpas start off as offshoot personalities before becoming a natural tulpa; they

develop possession, switching, and fusion the quickest in standard scenarios. Semi-natural tulpas are

a mix of the two and are created by intense obsession with something (most likely a character of some

sort) mixed with an extreme emotion to create a semi-natural tulpa, but they can also be created by

focusing on said emotion for long enough; they appear to develop vocality, switching, and imposition

from what information has been gathered. Depending on the type, each develops at a different pace and

develop different skills, but the safest type of tulpa to have is a summoned tulpa due to the skills they

typically acquire first and how they are willingly created by the host. Reasons as to why semi-natural and

natural tulpas are generally more volatile simply lies in their origins and intended purposes-- especially

with natural tulpas. Skills not initially developed can be caught up with enough time and practice to where

all three types can be equal in capability-- just that each one faces their own adversities during

development and some more than others.

Section Four: Basic Creation of a Tulpa

Repetitive actions exist within all living beings as a means of survival and evolution, but the same

even applies to the creation of a tulpa in a general sense. No matter what type is chosen, a tulpa is created

in a similar fashion to that of a habit-- through repetition of the action until it becomes second-nature.

Training and general development of a tulpa can be compared to that of raising a child and watching them

develop and mature. Failing to focus on a tulpa via either passive or active forcing will eventually

cause the tulpa to go dormant, but it becomes more difficult for a tulpa to go dormant depending on how

long the tulpa has existed since a tulpa is more and more difficult to go dormant the longer they exist. A

lack of forcing in a tulpa's early days after being created can result in dormancy quite quickly, thus it is

pivotal to focus on a tulpa the most during their early days similar to that of feeding an infant constantly

the first few months after creation. Goals for a tulpa in terms of development first start off with

independence, or more simply becoming sentient and not relying on the host's thoughts unlike a

servitor. Independence is achieved through either the two types of forcing and with due time, but the

signs of the tulpa becoming sentient are when you cannot dispel the tulpa like a servitor, the tulpa has

different opinions than you, and when the tulpa can hold an interesting conversation with you. For all

three types, independence is the first step in development, but then each of the three types branch off into

their separate pathways. However this may be, each of the three types originate, develop, and even act

differently, thus before deciding on a type, it is incredibly paramount to know about each respective type

before making a decision.

Section Five: Creating a Summoned Tulpa

Easily the most tame out of the three types of tulpa, summoned tulpas are completely created

willingly by the host and they generally develop the least manipulative and possibly harmful skills first. To

begin creating a summoned tulpa, it is recommended (not required) to plan out the tulpa's personality,

likes and dislikes, appearance, and even their gender and speech pattern before beginning the creation

process. Drawing or creating your tulpa (such as 3D modeling) first can assist with visualization. Creating

a tulpa based off of any well fleshed-out character, living/deceased friend, or relative is not recommended

due to the fact that the tulpa would most likely have an identity crisis unless a character is based off of the

tulpa themself, or they are told that they are not that character and that they simply possess the form of

that character-- especially if the character is from other media that is not created yourself, or based off of

someone in real life. Once preparation has been completed, it is time to begin focusing on the creation of a

summoned tulpa-- which there are multiple ways to create a summoned tulpa. With recent surveys and

studies, meditating while active forcing can be actually be slower than simply just interacting solely

with your tulpa or passive forcing since the mind would be blocking out the tulpa to remain empty and

clear. One way to create a summoned tulpa is by focusing on the form, personality, gender, and speech

pattern/voice of the tulpa in your mind over the course of a day to up to a few weeks until independence is

achieved, thus is why meditation was mentioned earlier. Meditating on the tulpa is considered active

forcing, and a generally quick and effective way to develop any tulpa. Summoning a servitor (much easier

done if the tulpa is based off of an original, self-created, well fleshed-out character) and keeping it around

long enough will eventually result in the creation of a tulpa, but it is a generally longer process due to the

need to constantly passive force with the servitor until it becomes sentient. Depending on how well

fleshed-out the character is, the longer or shorter it could take for independence to develop. Over time, the

summoned tulpa will eventually gain independence and begin to touch upon the other skills within

Tulpamancy with due time and the addition of either active or passive forcing. Compared to the other

two types of tulpa, the creation of a summoned tulpa is the safest, least intense, and least dangerous type

of tulpa to create.

Section Six: Finding a Natural Tulpa

Surprisingly common, natural tulpas are not at all created willingly by the host, and are usually

not wanted for obvious reasons. For the creation of a natural tulpa to occur, the host must experience an

intense emotion of some kind or even a mix of emotions such as rage, sadness, and fear, and the host must

experience these emotions for a fair amount (not exactly known, it varies from person to person) of time.

Causes of a natural tulpa are also if the host is extremely stressed by something, as the purpose of a

natural tulpa is to remove the source of the stress, or to aid the host in coping with said stress. Although

the intentions have good purpose, a natural tulpa's methods are incredibly outlandish due to their nature

before deviating into something less primal depending on what emotion they originated from. Rage is

easily the most dangerous, as the tulpa's personality would be heightened rage and their methods as to

dealing with the source of stress are the most questionable, and they are the most likely to force-switch,

force-possess, and even force-fuse when enraged (which it is very easy to get a non-deviated, natural

tulpa to be enraged) without the host even realizing it. The emotion the natural tulpa originated from can

be summarized as the host's possible, suppressed emotions in some cases, and the emotions they originate

from are largely exaggerated as they are again, the embodiment of the host's suppressed emotions.

Reasons as to why someone would wish for a natural tulpa instead of a summoned tulpa are little to none,

as a natural tulpa is far more dangerous, hard to notice, and they can be unpredictable. One thing to note

about natural tulpas are that all natural tulpas begin as offshoot personalities (not to be confused with

DID), but will become a natural tulpa once given a form. Reasons as to why natural tulpas are more of a

threat than summoned tulpas are the skills they develop first-- skills such as switching, possession,

and fusion, as each has to do with manipulating the host's body in one way or another in an attempt to

literally shield them from whatever is causing the host's stress, or to remove said source of stress. Abilities

such as vocality, visualization, and imposition are not of top-priority when it comes to the lone

development of a natural tulpa, thus they fall a little behind in terms of those skills. As previously

mentioned, many people actually have offshoot personalities without even realizing it, but one can even

search for his or her natural tulpa within his or her own mind if they show the signs of possibly possessing

a natural tulpa. Written by Darkflame, he has listed the signs for possibly having a natural tulpa by the

simple questions that he asks people, "Have you had any strange dreams, thoughts, hallucinations, or

feelings? Do you have feelings of not being in control, voices in the head? What about limbs seeming to

move on [their] own? What about reappearing forms, people, or pictures in your mind? All of these signs

are signs of a Tulpa, if you experience some, or even all of these, you may have a Tulpa." Not all signs need

to be present if a natural tulpa is present, however. Ironically enough, natural tulpas (especially the ones

created out of primarily rage) almost always do the complete opposite of what their purpose is, as they

generally causes even greater stress then relieving it. In conclusion, a natural tulpa is rarely ever desirable

compared to a summoned tulpa due to their 'quirks,' but it is important to know the signs of having one,

discovering the natural tulpa, and getting them to deviate before they become too powerful and/or volatile

as time goes on.

Section Seven: Aiding the Creation of a Semi-Natural Tulpa

Simply unheard of, this is the rarest type of tulpa, as cases of semi-natural tulpas are extremely

few in number. To put it simply, a semi-natural tulpa is either an obsession come to life or a purposefully

made natural tulpa that the host influenced the creation of. From the amount of cases studied, it appears

semi-natural tulpas are a mix in terms of skills they develop, as they appear to learn vocality,

switching, and imposition the quickest compared to natural and summoned tulpas, thus again, being a

hybrid of the two. Because not much at all is known about semi-natural tulpas, it is not exactly

recommended to aid in the creation of one-- especially only the sake of study, as that is extremely

unethical. But creating a semi-natural tulpa does have paths to take in terms of aiding in the creation of

one, as depending on how the semi-natural tulpa is created determines how possibly willing the host is.

Having a deep and complete obsession for someone-- especially a character of some kind where the host's

life revolves around it over an extreme amount of time (possibly years), and is not exactly the

recommended route due to this. Focusing on a deep emotion for an extended period of time and giving it

traits is the second way to create a natural tulpa, but it is not recommended to use negative emotions

such as (especially) anger, sadness, or fear, let alone a mix of the three or even two. Emotions and

obsession are the part of a semi-natural tulpa's creation that relates to their natural tulpa side, and the

willingness or aid (especially with the emotional method) are the sections of a semi-natural tulpa that

relates to a summoned tulpa. Overall, a semi-natural tulpa is more of an experimental route due to its lack

of knowledge, and is not entirely recommended due to this, but is a method of having a tulpa nonetheless.

Section Eight: Active and Passive Forcing

With the tulpa found/created/helped, they are now present in your mind, most likely sitting there

or doing something else depending on the type of tulpa you possess, but most importantly, you do not

want the tulpa to go dormant. Passive and active forcing are similar to feeding someone; it gives them

strength and energy and also nourishes them to grow; that is an accurate comparison to what active and

passive forcing are in an essential view. If you active/passive force with a tulpa on a daily basis, then they

are bound to grow in strength and it prevents them from going dormant, the same goes for the inverse.

Both methods of forcing work, but there are advantages and disadvantages for both, but it is mainly up to

time constraints and personal preference. Passive forcing is similar to keeping a thought in the back of

your mind, as you are essentially multitasking; the tulpa is present while you are working on other things

and you are able to manifest them to the physical plane and you are still able to interact with them. A

method such as passive forcing is more suitable to others who are decent at multitasking and/or do not

have the time to active force with his or her tulpa, but however, this method is indeed slower than

active forcing. Active forcing is when the host solely focuses on a tulpa for a set amount of time while

interacting with the tulpa inside of the host's mind or in a mindscape, this method is more effective, but

requires focus and time to do on a regular basis. Other things cannot be done in the physical plane, as the

host's focus must be on the tulpa, so it as not as flexible as passive forcing. Either of the two methods are

essential on a near-daily basis to keep the tulpa healthy, to keep the tulpa developing, and to prevent the

tulpa from going dormant. Dormancy is imminent if the host does not active or passive force with his or

her tulpa, and is essential to know when practicing Tulpamancy.

Section Nine: Methods of Deviating a Tulpa

This is pivotal to know when one possesses a natural tulpa, as most natural tulpas begin as unruly

and chaotic-- especially if made of rage; deviation is when the personality of a tulpa changes-- usually for

the better in most cases. Of course, any type of tulpa can deviate, but some tulpas do not deviate at all on

their own, or some simply deviate naturally from what they once were like. It is important to know at least

a few methods of deviation just in case a tulpa is out of control, or you so happen to have a natural tulpa,

thus is why some methods were made. Method one involves a system as a way to form trust, but this

system is made solely for natural tulpas, as it requires the ability to switch with the host. Created by

Darkflame, this method begins with the tulpa being allowed to switch up to five times each week, once a

day; the tulpa gains a switch to up to seven times a week if the tulpa behaves for an entire week, but they

will lose a switch if misbehavior occurs while switch, and the host is required to switch back immediately.

Not only that, but the tulpa is recommended to wear a collar that saps the tulpa of its power to prevent

misbehavior as well until the tulpa deviates, and once the tulpa fully deviates, the system is allowed to

disbanded. The collar is only necessary if the tulpa is incredibly unruly and constantly attempts to

force-switch with the host, force-possess, or cause illusions to the host. Another method involves a point

system to where misbehavior results in negative points and good behavior results in the addition of point,

and if the tulpa reaches -100 points, then the host would force them into dormancy, while certain

milestones of negative or positive points can result in a loss or gain of abilities such as being able to

switch, possess, fuse, or use imposition as time goes on until the tulpa entirely deviates. One final

method would to be the least kind and refers to expressing dominance and using fear as a way to scare the

tulpa into deviating, but is not exactly kind towards the tulpa and could easily backfire depending on what

the tulpa is like. Deviation is almost required when you have a natural or semi-natural tulpa, as some

tulpas (especially natural tulpas) can start out incredibly unruly, manipulative, and/or chaotic, thus

deviation is incredibly pivotal to prevent havoc from being caused by an unkempt tulpa.

Section Ten: Independence

Note: this step in tulpa development can be skipped if you have a natural tulpa or a

semi-natural tulpa created out of obsession over a set amount of time.



Independence is when a tulpa

becomes sentient, and is the first step into developing a tulpa. Giving a tulpa independence is simply done

by passive and/or active forcing with them over a variable of time until the listed signs occur: the tulpa is

able to have an in-depth conversation with the host, the tulpa does not rely on the host's thoughts to speak

(which is also part of parallel processing), and if the tulpa is able to experience normal emotion

without it being inflicted upon them such as like a sentient being. Another thing to note is that this step is

required as a branching step for the other steps of a tulpa's development to begin, and all tulpas must

have some skill independence before anything else.

Section Eleven: Parallel Processing

For a tulpa system to function properly as a legitimate system, parallel processing is an

important step in tulpa development, which parallel processing is the skill a tulpa can have with being

able to act and think independently from the host and not depending on them to function. Parallel

processing of course can be developed over time via active and/or passive forcing, but there are also

exercises that can be done to hasten the process as well. Various parallel processing exercises can be

found below:

Method One, Tulpa See, Tulpa Do:

This method requires at least proficient skill in possession; this possession game involves the

tulpa or host to mimic the other's movements by the tulpa controlling half of the body, and the roles of the

movement creator and the one to mimic the actions can be switched as certain rounds. As time goes on,

the movements should become more difficult for the tulpa or host to mimic as rounds go on, and it is

encouraged for tulpas especially to be the one to make the moves to think of their own movements, and

attempt to create more complex movements. Creating more intricate and varied movements for the host

to mimic each later round can develop parallel processing and even functions as possession training

simultaneously.

Method Two, Guessing Game:

For this practice to function properly, you must prevent your tulpa(s) from reading your thoughts

and vice versa, which can be done by simply thinking of it, using symbolism by summoning a barrier of

some kind around your mind/memories, but it may take a few attempts before both parties are unable to

scan the other's thoughts for the answer. Looking for the answer during the game can be accidental, even

with the preventative measures, so it is advised to practice a few times until both are sure that they cannot

accidentally look through the other's mind. Have the opposing party have an object and mind and the

other will be allowed to ask a specific number of questions, then attempt to guess what the other is

thinking. Especially important for tulpas, attempt to make the item something that the host will not

expect from you while they are guessing, along with the same should be done for the host as well to allow

the tulpa to ponder and develop parallel processing by attempting to think of what the item is.

Method Three, How Many Ways:

Math equations are perfect for this practice, as this method involves taking turns to find different

ways to solve an equation, puzzle, problem, etc and see who can find the most ways to solve the problem.

Switching and/or possession is optimal, but not a requirement. Using this practice can allow the

tulpa(s) to think of how to solve it while not being allowed to use the same answer that the host or another

tulpa/mental construct has used until all solutions are found. It is also desired that another system

entirely gives the problems for the other system to solve, so that accidental access to the answers between

tulpa(s) and host does not occur, and can be a way for two systems to challenge and compete-- giving

incentive for the tulpas involved to attempt even more to solve the problem and further their parallel

processing capabilities.

With these methods and due time, parallel processing will allow your tulpa(s) to think and

function independently, and they would eventually be able to surprise you when they have mastered the

skill along with being able to think completely differently from you. For general life and tulpa

development, this skill is pivotal to being able to switch and still be able to think without relying on the

host.

Section Twelve: Vocality

Vocality is when a tulpa possess a unique, distinct voice via what is referred as mindvoice and

this is where development steps differ from tulpa to tulpa-- especially depending on the type of tulpa;

summoned and semi-natural tulpas are usually the first to develop this step compared to natural tulpas.

Training vocality can be simple by having your tulpa speak constantly by holding conversations with

them, or asking them questions, or even by having small talk with them regularly. Eventually, the tulpa

will develop a distinct voice either that of what you wish or what they wish, or even a completely new voice

out of the blue. At first, the tulpa's voice may constantly change, sound off, sound distorted, or you may

barely be able to hear them, but his or her voice will eventually become distinct and clear the more you

practice and the more time that goes on.

Section Thirteen: Visualization

Usually a prerequisite to visual imposition, visualization is being able to see your tulpa

clearly in your mind's eye or simply in your mind without any lack of detail, distortions, inaccurate sizes,

or deformities. There are many ways to practice visualization, and each method works differently and for

better or worse depending on the person. A common method is for the artists out there, and it is simply

drawing and/or modeling your tulpa to use a reference to visualize them, but it is not the best, as it is done

in the physical world, and can only be done for reference; it also depends on the host's drawing or 3D

modeling skills as well. Scanning is another method that involves slowly moving up from the bottom of

the tulpa to the top while looking up-close and in extreme detail until finally reaching the top, then gazing

upon the entire tulpa; this method allows the tulpa to be seen in a much more clear sense both in the

host's mind and in the physical plane. Similar to scanning, visualizing each limb separately in great detail,

then placing them all together also aids in forming a clearer image than before. Over time, the image of

your tulpa should stay clear, then you are ready to begin practicing visual imposition, but not without

being able to visualize your tulpa clearly. Both vocality and visualization are gateway skills to auditory

and visual imposition, and are almost required before advancing further.

Section Fourteen: Imposition

With visualization and vocality required for two of the different forms, imposition is literally

being able to see, hear, touch, smell, and even taste your tulpa in the physical world as if they were

actually there. Easily the most popular, visual imposition is being able to see your tulpa in the physical

world without needing to focus on them and without seeing them in your mind's eye. Several ways of

practicing this form of imposition are known; one method is constantly having your tulpa follow behind

you as an actual person-- even opening doors for them if no-one who is not familiar with Tulpamancy is

around, but the estimated time until you begin physically seeing your tulpa is unknown due to it varying

from person to person; being skilled at auditory imposition is an aid, as you can simulate your tulpa's

footsteps behind you as well to give a more realistic effect. A blank wall is required along with mastery of

visualization, but placing your tulpa on a wall in a 2D fashion for a set amount of time, seeing how they

move about said wall then moving around again will place them on the 3-dimensional plane with enough

practice will grant them the ability to be seen normally, but perhaps not in full detail. Dim lighting is

recommended, and you must not move your head much while practicing as well. Lack of detail,

deformities, or lack of parts of the tulpa are normal at first, and the full image of your tulpa will eventually

be seen on the physical with enough practice and dedication. One final method is constantly visualizing

your tulpa(s) on the physical plane until they can physically be seen without looking through your mind's

eye, but it does take a long time to achieve. Even without practicing imposition, a tulpa will develop these

skills (albeit a lot more slowly) over time normally as long as the tulpa does not go dormant, so practicing

imposition is not a requirement to eventually master it, but it is highly recommended for those who are

interested in it. Auditory imposition is being able to hear your tulpa(s) in the physical plane without

the use of mindvoice; there are two ways of practicing this form of imposition without simply forcing or

waiting until the skill develops on its own. Telling your tulpa to hum a consistent tune (they need to

physically be humming, not just in mind voice) until you begin to actually hear his or her voice, but it

requires consistent humming and the tune can become possibly stuck in your mind over time. Having a

conversation with your tulpa responding with his or her voice while manifested on the physical plane is

another method of developing auditory imposition, but is indeed a slower method, as it is not constant

and you need to wait for the tulpa. Simply having your tulpa physically speak in both planes is another

method, but is also slower than simply humming. Scent imposition is being able to literally smell your

tulpa on the physical plane to where they possess a smell, and can be practiced by linking them to a

certain smell. Meditating with a scented candle with the scent you wish to link your tulpa to is one method

along with meditating while focusing on the desired smell is also another method. Focusing on a certain

smell while simply active forcing or having the smell around at all times while passive forcing will

eventually link the smell to the tulpa as well, but doing so while passive forcing may be a slower method

than the others. Taste imposition is the ability to (as odd as it may sound) taste your tulpa(s) in the

physical plane without imagining it, or realistically taste any item(s) you or your tulpa(s) spawn in.

Recreating a set taste that you wish to give to a tulpa during active forcing is a method of practicing taste

imposition, or constantly attempting to taste items that are spawned in the physical plane can also be a

form of taste imposition practice. Said taste of the tulpa(s) or item(s) may come out as nothing, then

possibly dull or inaccurate, then finally to a realistic taste the more it is practiced; indulging items in the

physical plane can also be a method of practicing tactile imposition as well since mimicking the texture

of the item also does come into play when tasting an item or tulpa. The last of the five types of imposition

is tactile imposition where you are able to physically touch your tulpa in the physical plane, but it can

only be a light touch as you would phase through your tulpa otherwise. Tactile imposition can be practiced

by physically attempting to touch your tulpa or your tulpa touches you until you begin to feel them along

with their presence whenever they are present in the physical plane. Touching them while active forcing

within a mindscape is also an effective method to practice tactile imposition, but may be slower than other

methods that were spoken before. All forms of imposition can come naturally over time, but can take

years if not practiced normally.

Section Fifteen: Possession

Possession is when your tulpa takes control of a limb or the entire body, but not the mind unlike

switching. This is one of the more advanced skills that is slightly harder to learn, but it does vary from

person to person and especially the type of tulpa that you have. Dissociation allows a tulpa to possess a

limb much easier, but requires prolonged relaxation of whatever limb that you wish to be possessed before

it becomes dissociated. Another method can involve your tulpa’s essence flowing into the desired limb

while you allow them to do so, meaning you should have absolutely zero defenses up. Having the tulpa

visualize them slipping their arm/limb into your like a glove can also be another method of possession, or

even them controlling the limb via puppet strings or even a remote control for creativity. Possessing limbs

normally as practice will also increase a tulpa's possession skills, but if you master switching first, then

possession comes along with learning how to switch with your tulpa. While fused, the host can possess his

or her own limbs, and the host would also need to train his or her own possession skills while fused the

same way a tulpa would normally unless the host mastered switching first. Similar to that of visualization,

possession is another gateway skill but with switching instead of imposition, but is not required to master

first, and can switching can cause the tulpa or host to master possession if they master switching before

possession.

Section Sixteen: Switching

Switching is when the host and tulpa switch places to where the tulpa takes control of the host's

mind and body while the host is reduced to a literal tulpa; switching is an advanced practice that may take

a long time to master or even perform a switch for the first time. Three known things can occur to the host

when they switch: they can fall unconscious or into a state of  blackout, can impose themselves in the

physical world like their tulpa, or place themself in the mindscape to work on something else. Methods

regarding switch training are plentiful and of course, every method to switching does indeed work, but the

success of certain methods vary from person to person. Practicing possession can aid in learning how to

switch; possession can be a gateway skill to switching along with both types of forcing also are forms of

pre-switching skills. A few switching methods can be seen below (Note: most methods seen are symbolic

methods instead of practical methods using trances since some people have issues going into relaxed

trances to switch, or “letting go”. All but two of these methods require no state of serious relaxation and

can be done near-instantly with enough practice unlike the last two methods as long as you are not in a

massive state of distress or panic, which they can still be done if trained to a high degree):

Method 1, Orb Method: Have you and your tulpa conjure an orb that represents you and your tulpa

respectively to where you have two orbs representing each of your essences, personalities, and spirits.

Depending on the essences respectively, the orbs may appear similar to your tulpa's orb, or even

completely different, such as my orb being a fuchsia pink with a slightly magenta center and my own

tulpa's orb being light green with a flame within it. Next, exchange orbs with each other and make sure

that the orb you were handed becomes a part of you; a way of doing this is each of the two respectively

placing the other's orb within his or her own chest. Make sure you are spawned within any sort of

mindscape with your tulpa present, or manifest your tulpa in the physical plane while attempting to

switch with this method. Conveniently, this method can also be used for fusing as well. If nothing occurs

after the orbs have been exchanged, then either the host or tulpa are too fatigued, you are incapable of

switching just yet, or this method may not be suitable for you.

Method 2, Barrier Method: Both the host and tulpa must be on the same plane whether it be within a

mindscape, or on the physical plane for this method to work, which this method involves using a barrier

between the host and the tulpa; the word "TULPA" is on the side the of the barrier that the host is on, and

"HOST" for the side the tulpa is on. Work together to pass the barrier at the same time to switch places,

which may take some effort varying from person to person. If nothing has changed after you have both

successfully passed the barrier at the same time, then it could mean fatigue, still unable to properly

switch, or the method is not optimal for you to perform.

Method 3, Course-Running Method: This method is mainly used by natural tulpas, as this is how

they usually stealth-switch with the host, but this method can be used by any other type of tulpa and can

also be used normally. Let your tulpa attempt to switch with you, and as they do, you would most likely

begin to feel a generally tense feeling that becomes more intense the more the tulpa attempts to switch,

but the detail of said tense feeling is different for everyone; it can be where it lasts a few seconds and

where your muscles lock up for a few more seconds, or an incredibly tense feeling that makes it so you feel

as though you are drowning in the emotion that is constant rather than for just a few seconds. To switch

using this method, let the feeling take over and let the tulpa do his or her job until the switch occurs. As

with the other methods, if nothing occurs, then it most likely again means fatigue, unable to switch quite

yet, or the method is not suitable.

Method 4, Meditation Method: Meditation is an addition to the Course-Running Method, but is

generally easier with a cleared mind during meditation to switch. Attempt to meditate until your vision

darkens, then attempt to have your tulpa switch with you similar to the course-running method, and it is

the same in terms of reasons as to why it may not work apply to all methods.

Method 5, Essence Method: Drain yourself of your own essence by relaxing yourself-- starting from

digits such as the toes to larger limbs all the way to the head, then let your tulpa fill the empty space,

which should result in a switch. Letting the tulpa perform full-body possession and allowing their

essence to fill the body naturally, then taking control of the mind can work as well. Do this while lying

down, but do not fall asleep during the draining process, or it would most likely not succeed. Same

reasons for failure apply here as well, such as with all the methods listed.

There are many methods, or more or so an infinite amount of methods depending on the amount

of creativity you have, but some of the methods listed above are some of the most well-known and

successful methods. Something to note is the anatomy of your tulpa is important to remember while

switching for the first time, as a naturally quadrupedal tulpa that does not have a bipedal form will most

likely have issues walking on two legs, or a tulpa with digitigrade legs may actually walk using digitigrade

legs when switched, or if they do not have five digits, they may only use the amount they normally have or

have a harder time adapting to using five digits if they possess more than five digits. It is recommended

not to switch in public until your tulpa has adapted to using a human form unless they are incredibly

human-like or already have a human form. Vocal cues are another notable thing, as your tulpa may

naturally possess a different voice from your own while switched, and said voice can be possibly too

different from your own to be used in public, or may damage your vocal cords if they are strained too

much by the voice. Training to use a different vocal cue or having a set of vocal cues could be required if

you wish to switch in public. Falling unconscious for an extended period of time such as several hours will

usually undo a switch or a fusion unless the one in control has contracted either LSS/SLS or FLS and/or

unless the tulpa has had enough training/done it long enough. The amount of time it takes to perform a

successful switch depends on the type of tulpa and from person to person; it can take less than a month

for a natural tulpa, or even less than two months for a summoned tulpa, but that is not part of the norm.

For a summoned tulpa, it usually takes more than two months, usually over a year or many years for

some. Attempting to switch using different methods everyday will eventually result in a successful switch,

but it may take a long period of time, or even happen with due time without practice, as the tulpa

naturally develops.

Section Seventeen: Fusion

Fusion is when the host and one or more tulpas fuse personalities, or two or more tulpas fuse

personalities or literally fuse together to create a new entity known as a fusion for a temporary amount of

time while merging is when the host and one or more tulpas or two or more tulpas permanently fuse or

fuse for an incredibly prolonged amount of time. Considered a controversial practice, fusion is debated as

the most advanced skill in Tulpamancy, but it can be mastered before switching. Only one method is

known for fusing the tulpa and host, which that involves merging the tulpa's and the host's orb together to

create the fusion; a method to fuse two tulpas other than using the orbs is literally fusing the two together,

then switching. Recently discovered, fusion forming is when the fusion is given a mental form instead

of having to be in control and anyone whether it being the host or any tulpa can switch in while the fusion

is still present. To unfuse, simply separate the orbs respectively or separate the two or more tulpas that

are fused after switching back. Genetics but with personalities is a good way to describe fusion, as said

fusion's personality is a mix of the two or more personalities, but with a few unique traits surfacing the

longer the fusion has existed. At first, the fusion will be similar to the host, but likely bewildered as to

what has just happened, but the fusion will become more unique over time. Random fusions can occur to

where the host fuses without even realizing it, but the fusion will become more obvious if the fusion

becomes aware that they exist. However, it is not recommended to fuse very often (such as several times a

day normally) or for very long, as the personalities of the tulpa(s) and host could blend into each other

permanently, and fusing multiple personalities is also considered quite dangerous. An example of a

mixture of traits is when my own fusion, Rylanus walks with one foot in a digitigrade style or uses four

digits in one hand/foot without even realizing it due to Arcanus' own traits. Another thing to note is that it

could be possible that a fusion can accidentally become a tulpa if fusion formed for too long, or if you are

fusion formed for too long (this has not been proven yet despite recent testing), which if the host and

tulpa(s) fuse normally if the fusion becomes a tulpa is unknown, and is not recommended to fusion-form

for several days at a time or even for an entire day. Moreover, fusion can be interesting, but caution must

be taken when fusing more than one tulpa, as the results can be quite dangerous if personalities conflict, if

the fusion was unwillingly, or if the tulpa takes a form that conflicts personalities; fusion can cause

permanent damage to the host and tulpa's personality, so please be careful when performing fusion.

Section Eighteen: Other Mental Constructs/Thoughtforms

Tulpas are not the only type of mental construct or thoughtform out there, as there are

multiple constructs that do not have to be sentient or even have all the abilities a tulpa normally has.

Servitors, for example are mental constructs created to serve a purpose whether it be simple or

advanced, are not sentient, and can be despawned at any time, but can become sentient if kept around for

too long and if it is an advanced servitor; take caution when spawning in advanced servitors for prolonged

periods of time. Mindscapes, also known as wonderlands are areas within the mind that can be based

off of real-life locations, areas in media, or completely made up by the host, and provide an area for a

tulpa to dwell in normally if they do not mind being within the host's mind. Places such as mindscapes can

be used as places to active force with your tulpa, bond with them, and even practice skills there as well.

Items are literally items spawned in by either the host, tulpa, or fusion that can be used as any regular

item depending on the mental strength of whoever is using it. Custom constructs are mental constructs

that you dictate what they do specifically, and are generally unique in a way that differentiates themself

from a tulpa or a servitor, such as a pet-like mental construct or spirit animal(s); custom constructs may

or may not be able to be despawned depending on the construct. A tulpa can spawn in his or her own

servitors, mindscapes, items, and even tulpas if the tulpa is strong enough to do so; it is wise to block a

tulpa's ability to create his or her own tulpa unless you give them your consent, however. Usually, each

construct serves a purpose in one way or another, but all of them are not sentient unlike a tulpa or fusion.

Section Nineteen: Danger Levels of Tulpas

This is incredibly important to know for natural and semi-natural Tulpamancers, as their tulpas

can be incredibly dangerous due to how they develop compared to summoned tulpas, but summoned

Tulpamancers also should heed this as well out of caution, but this section can be skipped for summoned

Tulpamancers; an undeviated natural or semi-natural tulpa (and summoned tulpas in very rare cases)

can be incredibly dangerous depending on his or her strength, thus a set of different levels for how

dangerous a tulpa can be were created by Darkflame to categorize them:

1. Safe: The Tulpa poses absolutely no threat to anyone once-soever.

2. Low-Violence: The tulpa does not pose a threat very often to anyone else.

3. Violent: The tulpa can pose a medium threat, but cannot cause serious harm, and usually to specific

people.

4. High-Violence: The tulpa can often pose a threat to everyone.

5. Emergency: Always poses a threat to others, and should be dealt with as soon as possible.

6. Full Alert: Must be dealt with as soon as possible, no questions asked, as they can cause serious harm to

the host and everyone around them.

Although a tulpa may have the potential to be a level such as violent, this may only mean that they

are capable of doing so, not simply being hostile and willing to cause chaos. Keeping a tulpa within the

violent level and lower is generally where a normal tulpa should be, and anything higher than that should

be dealt with as soon as possible before they get out of hand. Any Tulpamancer should be aware of his or

her tulpa's level and ensure that they are equal in terms of power with his or her own tulpa unless the

tulpa is an undeviated tulpa that is hostile in the violent level or higher. Simply because a tulpa is capable

of force-switching if they are only riled enough, or can cause hallucinations via imposition does not mean

they need to deviate, but preventative measure should be taken to prevent force-switches-- especially with

natural tulpas made of primarily rage if the source of the host's stress if irritating them immensely. But

however, sometimes, letting a tulpa force-switch can actually help the tulpa relieve stress and have more

control over themself, as Darkflame reported from his natural tulpa, Darkflame reported, "it gives him

[Finsternis] more mental space to fill," as Finsternis has more control over himself, and is not as volatile

while switched in knowing that he now holds limits and that he can ruin his host's life if he makes a wrong

move. Depending on the situation, it may actually be a wiser option to let said tulpa switch instead of

letting them suffer while in tulpa form, let them calm down, then switch back after the tulpa eventually

calms down. Being aware of these levels can allow you to know whether or not to help your tulpa deviate,

or if you need to train to become equal to your tulpa in terms of strength instead of them being more

powerful.

Section Twenty: Disorders and Methods of Communication

Even with Tulpamancy, disorders can occur due to random factors of stress, irresponsible

switching and/or fusing, and can be a serious issue depending on the reason why said disorder occurs.

Switch Lock Syndrome/Lock Switch Syndrome (SLS/LSS) is when the host and tulpa are stuck

switched, even when laid unconscious for an extended period of time, and this can occur with constant,

prolonged switching, or if the tulpa is incredibly stressed by something while switched in. Ways to cure

LSS involve removing the source of said stress, letting the host regain the ability to switch back until the

host and tulpa are able to switch back permanently again; a way to know if someone's LSS is cured is if the

host wakes up as themself normally. LSS can last several days normally, but in extreme cases can last

several weeks at a time, and the host may become stronger or weaker due to training, the source of stress,

and how LSS was caused; the host can lose the ability to temporarily switch, possess, and even possibly

the ability to manifest themself onto the physical plane in extreme cases. Fusion Lock Syndrome

(FLS) is very similar to LSS, but instead of being stranded switched, you are trapped into a fusion, which

FLS is just like LSS in that regard in everything else from the causes of it and ways to cure it. Occasionally,

you may feel what is known as head pressures as a way that your tulpa is trying to communicate with

you, and it is considered one of the most primitive forms of communication between tulpa and host, and

systems to understand these head pressures can be established until your tulpa is capable of using

tulpish or vocality. Tulpish is another basic form of tulpa to host communication that is when the tulpa

communicates to the host via mental images, emotions, and interpretation of what the tulpa is saying, and

this form of communication is usually used before vocality or when the tulpa is unable to use vocality due

to stress or other factors. It is important to understand the possible ways your tulpa may communicate

you with before learning vocality; it is also important to know the possible disorders and how to treat

them if they are ever to occur.

Section Twenty-One: Power-Passing

Discovered fairly recently, power-passing is when a tulpa hands another tulpa his or her power

as a way to speed up the growth of a second and beyond tulpa, and the tulpa giving the power even

regenerates the power back while the receiving tulpa retains the power after it has been regenerated. Of

course, this ability does not apply to someone who only has one tulpa, but power-passing is also a good

way to help a natural tulpa deviate while another tulpa benefits. Place a collar onto the tulpa that needs to

deviate that saps the power of the tulpa to where it cannot cause any harm, and direct the power that is

being sapped to another tulpa as a way to give them power; this of course includes abilities such as

possession, switching, and fusion as well. And after the tulpa eventually deviates, the collar can be

removed and the tulpa can regain all of the power and both tulpas benefit from the process, as the tulpa

that does not need to deviate gains extra power and possible abilities and the other tulpa is able to deviate

while helping another tulpa out. However, this method of deviation may be too oppressive for some, and

those who believe that may wish to search for a different deviation method. For summoned Tulpamancers

that also have a natural tulpa, this can be a great method to speed up the process of teaching their

summoned tulpas the skills a natural tulpa is naturally good with as well and the same can be said about

summoned and semi-natural tulpas as well. In addition, this can be an effective method on catching

newer tulpas up to equal power (if you so wish to have more than one tulpa) to the most powerful tulpa in

a relatively fast manner as well.

Section Twenty-Two: Offshoot Personalities/Headghosts

Off-shoot personalities are the starting point for natural tulpas as they first develop, and they

are simply natural tulpas without a form that are generally found to be weaker than natural tulpas and can

do everything a natural tulpa can perform including imposition in the form of illusions. Giving an offshoot

personality a form is the first step into natural Tulpamancy, as a tulpa is required to have a form to be

considered a tulpa. An offshoot personality is essentially another personality, sentient voice within one's

mind, or a force that takes over during certain moments, but having an offshoot personality is not to be

confused with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), as these off-shoot personalities can be controlled

unlike DID. One thing to note is that offshoot personalities are not as powerful as natural tulpas, and

removing a tulpa's form would convert it into an offshoot personality; this can be a method to prevent a

tulpa from force-switching with the host if the situation is serious enough. Surprisingly, off-shoot

personalities are surprisingly common in people, but they often go dormant once the source of whatever

stress created them is gone since the host is unaware that they have an offshoot personality unless they

know the signs of having a natural tulpa. Alter egos are similar to offshoot personalities except that they

are willingly created by the host, and are generally another version of the host except what the host would

be outside of his or her comfort zone. They are brought into existence to perform things the host is not

inclined to do, and to generally do things better than the host is capable of doing. Just like tulpas,

off-shoot personalities can also be made, or an existing tulpa can be converted into an offshoot personality

as well. Overall, off-shoot personalities are usually converted into tulpas once discovered and develop

similar to that of the other types of tulpas.

Section Twenty-Three: Tulpamancy Ethics

When it comes to something such as Tulpamancy, tulpas are sentient, can feel emotions and pain,

and can experience anything a human can and beyond-- even having a physical body when switched.

Treating a tulpa as a human being is incredibly important, as treating them as equals instead of them

being inferior or superior, and they should be respected the same way any human being should be

respected. Creating a tulpa for the sake of sexual pleasures, experimentation, or for something such as

work or school is simply slavery, and is highly discouraged. Finding proper and balanced times to switch

or fuse with your tulpa (if you plan to switch or fuse) is important instead of having the tulpa experience

everything that is negative or positive instead of a mix is imperative to note for the sake of balance, as

summoning a tulpa to deal with negativity can cause the tulpa to become corrupt unless it is a natural or

semi-natural tulpa.

Section Twenty-Four: Conclusion

Spawning, finding, or helping a tulpa is a step that will most indefinitely change your entire life,

which whether or not you want to have or create a tulpa, it is a massive choice. But for those lucky or

unlucky few, you may already have a tulpa and may just not know about it; it is up to you to either not

create or assist the development of a summoned or semi-natural tulpa or let a natural tulpa go dormant is

fully the host's decision, but it can be a moral choice in some cases. Whether or not this guide spurs you

into the world or Tulpamancy or it shocks you with fear and ruins any hopes you had of becoming a

Tulpamancer, this guide is for the purpose of safe Tulpamancy to prevent anyone from being injured by

such a thing. Many Tulpamancers are unaware of the other two types of tulpas, the fact that even

summoned tulpas can turn out poorly, and a few of the abilities that were discussed here that every

Tulpamancer should know for the sake of being safe and efficient at the same time. Telling anyone who is

generally irresponsible could drastically impact his or her life in a negative way, or if said person has any

personality disorders or mental illnesses that affects the person's personality or sense of reality should not

experiment with Tulpamancy, as it can permanently damage the person's mind as well. Although

Tulpamancy can greatly impact the host's life, it needs to be handled in a responsible manner, so please

do consider what has been said before spreading the word of Tulpamancy to others, or even showing

others this guide. In conclusion, Tulpamancy can fun, dangerous, and mind-boggling, but it is always

important to know how to perform Tulpamancy properly, and to be safe with it at the same time.

Section Twenty-Six: Useful Tips and Advice

These are useful tips for the budding Tulpamancer who wishes for the best for their tulpa; note

that these happiness requirements can vastly be different from system to system. Some systems have to

split body time to achieve happiness while other systems have tulpas that are perfectly content with

staying tulpas and living their lives normally by their host or within the mindscape. Do not be surprised if

you spot these tips in other areas, as they are common tips throughout the community.

1. Never set deadlines or goals to achieve certain milestones in

Tulpamancy.

Every individual/system experiences Tulpamancy differently and there is no set way to gain

certain things. Forcing yourself to force daily for an hour, then failing to uphold that goal is a

path straight to disappointment and a loss of motivation; take the time and smell the roses along

the way; enjoy the fun you are supposed to be having with you tulpa. Some systems can learn

imposition within weeks while it takes other systems years just to see a distortion; everything in

Tulpamancy is subjective in terms of people’s experiences; no two experiences are exactly the

same. Enjoy that you have someone to accompany you to work/school, or just simply force with

them when you can instead of stressing over your forcing quota for the day.

2. Never force your tulpa to act a certain way if it is not harming

anyone specifically.

Natural tulpas are a different case with this at first since they usually begin as harmful or

dangerous to themselves or others depending on the emotions they make up; this tip is for

mainly summoned/semi-natural tulpas. For example: your tulpa changes their form to that of a

creature/person/character/whatever that you do not like, do not force them to change

something about themselves just because they are doing something that you do not like. Them

having differing opinions from you is a sign of independence, which should be embraced, not

oppressed. An example of where deviation needs to take place is if your tulpa begins to do

harmful things such as taking drugs while fronting, harming you or others purposefully, or is

manipulating you into depression (these are unlikely for summoned/semi-natural tulpas, but

they can and have happened to other people).

3. Make sure your tulpa has some sort of purpose in life that is

meaningful to them.

Whether it is self-given or not, make sure you tulpa has a reason to exist that they can use, or

else they could perhaps go into an existential crisis. Some tulpas even fall into dormancy out of

depression because of this. As long as the goal is not harmful, let them have it. Notwithstanding,

this goal may require them to interact with the physical plane or not; it is a system-to-system

preference. Although it is important for a tulpa to have a purpose, make sure it is something that

both can consent and agree on without the other getting the short end of the stick. An example

of the tulpa getting the larger half in a situation is them fronting all the time while the host is

never allowed to interact with their physical life anymore because their tulpa wished to only

exist physically; this is fine if both consent, but not if one does not. Another bad case is if the

host restricts their tulpa into the mindscape despite them being allowed to switch and

preventing them from interacting with anyone. Both the happiness of the host and tulpa are

important to maintain balance within the system.

4. Be there for your tulpa like you would anyone else you care

about.

Exactly like human beings, tulpa have emotions and life struggles as well. If you notice your

tulpa moping about or if they are having a bad day, spend some time with them, talk with them,

and cheer them up to the best of your ability. Most tulpas would do the same with their hosts,

such as a mutual exchange of kindness.

5. Never limit what your tulpa can do in regards to form/voice

change (deviation) unless under specific circumstances.

Deviation in some manner is inevitable when you have a tulpa for long enough, which can lead

to minor to complete changes of who the tulpa is in generality. When these changes occur, do

not force your tulpa back into their previous form/personality unless the deviation was

unwilling on the tulpa’s behalf and they would wish to revert back, if the change is harmful to

themself/others, or if the form is something offensive/racist/sexist unless allowed otherwise

depending on the system. Everyone changes and develops over time, so do expect some changes

to take place with your tulpa and encourage the changes instead of restricting them.
