So, I was reading (of all things) my English Textbook and they referenced dreaming as a form of storytelling. I'm not entirely sure how I got from that to this but I managed it so here goes:
I imagined a plugin of some sort where, when you sleep in a bed at night, you "dream" by popping into a fixed location camera set above and behind another player, mob, or entity. Perhaps this could even lead to a "dream world" where players who are willing to be watched can go to fight dragons, wage war, and live in cities, camps, castles, or forts. To them it would be a purely RP world, to people dreaming it would be a fun dreamers world. Here are the features such a plugin should/would have:
This would also allow for the creation of a Dreamland continent, which would not need to follow the rules of the currently existing worlds. The way I see it you would need to be approved to enter that world - namely, you'd need to be approved as a good roleplayer. If you want to edit you'd need to be approved for that too, except maybe in specifically regenerating locations like forests and mines and farms (which would revert back to their pristine state every few days). This world would be primarily for roleplay and beds would explode if placed in this world. The way to get there would be by using a warp, boat, or perhaps being able to /sethome only in that world. The world would be the ultimate dreamland world where the staff can pretty much go wild on what they build (want to make floating islands? Go for it!) and where Roleplay would be an absolute (you only have local chat in this world).
So really, it's two ideas, but I would like to know if the Dream Plugin would even be possible Cayorion and if the Dreamland Map would be possible Thortuna, MonMarty if Cayorion says that the Dream Plugin is even possible. If not then we can just drop the entire idea haha.
I'd also like to know what everyone thinks about the Dream Plugin idea and the Dreamland Map idea @Everyone.

To them it would be a purely RP world, to people dreaming it would be a fun dreamers world. Here are the features such a plugin should/would have:
- Dreamer Yes/No - Allows players to allow or disallow people from following them.
- Tiny Render - Regardless of what your normal render is, when you enter the dream it drops to tiny. This protects the player from being spied on and gives a more mysterious look to the game.
- 3rd Person PoV - This would set the PoV at the 3rd person, above and behind the player. It could either be fixed or perhaps it could follow the player's vision (like using f5 twice on windows).
- Silent Dreamers- You cannot talk while dreaming and cannot hear anything except the local chat of the player you're following.
- Dreamscape - This would give it so that despite being on tiny render you can still see the moon, sun, and stars. Perhaps a texture could be created solely for dreamers, perhaps not.
- Vampiric Dreams - Vampires would be able to sleep during the day and would wake up when the sun sets.
