Say you want to write a story - can you offload the idea to your tulpa, entertain yourself for a few hours, then ask them to dictate to you the story, now fully fleshed-out? Can you give them control of your body so they can write it themselves?
A lot of writers seem to have characters who are pretty much like tulpas.
This, to the extent that the character can veto a proposed plot point. "I wouldn't do that."
So I tried experimenting. I couldn't do it to a degree of sufficiently high fidelity to be able to say "A Tulpa wrote a story on my behalf." I'll be trying again soon.
The latter is not possible. My Tulpa does not have control of my body, although I've heard anecdotes of people who manage to do that. As for the first question, I've never tried. I'll attempt it and report back to you on whether it's possible.
