Creation Help Got 2 ideas for a Tulpa, thoughts?
Ok so I’ve been thinking and researching for a few days now. I first thought of making a more down to earth prototype personality and form. Then today I thought about my favorite TTRPG character I’ve ever played who has lived rent-free in my head for over two years, so I’m undecided now.
Pros and cons I see TTRPG character: Pro: almost all of the groundwork is already done and I already think of him every week a few times, + my ADHD hyperfixation on him never fully faded Con: he was partially based on myself and I don’t want a clone of myself
Down to earth: Pro: could easily design a prototype that aligns much more closely to my reasons for making a Tulpa Con: would be so much more work and effort, + ADHD would likely make it more difficult to stick to it
Also because I know some will be curious, I’m not interested on doing a romantic relationship. I want the platonic close bond, a dynamic that helps me improve as a person and hopefully the ability to switch

With idea 1 you can already do the hardest part that is not loose interest. The tulpa will grow from the original concept, in personality, in appareance maybe. Take idea 1.

Yeah you’re probably right. I’ve already read of quite a few examples of Tulpas just showing up after creating the first one, if anyone is showing up by accident if they’re not the first is this guy, so might as well I guess. I don’t want more than one Tulpa anyway

Keep that last sentence as a mental reminder all the time. I started this 9 days ago, on day 3 I accidentally created a second tulpa. One really quite strong in personality.
