Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Suppose your main body is distanced from the means by which you conduct an otherwise dangerous mission; this means you're safe, right? WRONG! This is for cases where someone's body is distanced from what they're doing but their body happens to be in danger anyway, whether for related or for separate reasons. Note that this is distinct from Your Mind Makes It Real. In that trope, anything that happens to your remotely-controlled self also happens to your real self. In this trope, your physical self is being directly threatened while you are currently out of your body; thus, you might not be aware of the danger, or even if you are, you might not be able to stop or escape it. See also Actually a Doombot, Astral Projection, Body Surf, Decoy Getaway, Demonic Possession, Enemy Without, Keystone Army, Myself My Avatar, Remote Body, Robot Me, Slain in Their Sleep, Synchronization and Soul Jar.

The team's commander in Battlefield 2 primarily does his job from a top-down, RTS-like view, but still has a physical presence on the map. As such, it's generally a good idea to hide in some distant and unpopulated area, preferably inside of some kind of structure to prevent the enemy commander from lobbing artillery at you. | |

In Wolfwalkers, the titular Wolfwalkers leave their bodies behind to run around as wolves whenever they fall asleep. Their human bodies are comatose and completely defenseless until they return, and any injuries they sustain as wolves are reflected on their human bodies. For most of the film, their bodies are safe in their beds, but in the climax, they are directly threatened. | |

White Dwarf #18 adventure "The Halls of Tizun Thane". If a Player Character smokes any of the Cagayan Sable black lotus leaves, they will fall unconscious and their soul will leave their body and float around the halls. During this time their body is vulnerable to damage and their soul can be trapped in an airtight chamber. If their soul doesn't return to their body in 20 minutes, the body will begin to lose points from The Six Stats until it does. | |

Grand Theft Auto 2 double-subverts this with remotely operated vehicles; yes, the game is designed such that the player character is unlikely to be attacked while the camera perspective focuses on the remotely operated vehicle. But that won't protect you if you're standing next to a burning car when the remotely operated part starts, and if said burning car explodes before said remotely operated part is over. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: When a wizard uses an Astral Spell and enters the Astral Plane, they leave their body behind where they can't actively protect it. 1st Edition Advanced D&D Oriental Adventures supplement. A number of spells send the caster's spirit away from their body, which not only leaves the body vulnerable to attack but can leave the caster stranded in spirit form if the body is moved. The spells are "Dream Vision", "Dream Sight", "Possess Animal", "Possess", and "Spirit Self". Fiend Folio supplement. The berbalang can go into a trance and send a projection of itself out onto the Astral plane to hunt for a human being to kill and eat. While the projected form is active, the berbalang is helpless and can be easily killed. If its astral form is killed, the berbalang has a 75% chance of dying from system shock. White Dwarf #18 adventure "The Halls of Tizun Thane". If a Player Character smokes any of the Cagayan Sable black lotus leaves, they will fall unconscious and their soul will leave their body and float around the halls. During this time their body is vulnerable to damage and their soul can be trapped in an airtight chamber. If their soul doesn't return to their body in 20 minutes, the body will begin to lose points from The Six Stats until it does. 2nd Edition Advanced D&D The Complete Book of Necromancers supplement. The Soultravel poison forces the victim's soul to leave their body and enter the Ethereal plane for 40-160 minutes. During this time their body will remain in a death-like coma. The Complete Psionics Handbook supplement. The Psychic Clone power allows the psionicist to create an intangible duplicate which can travel up to 60 feet away. While the duplicate exists, the psionicist's body is completely helpless and can't move. Tome of Magic supplement. The spell Bloodstone's Frightful Joining causes the caster's spirit to possess an undead creature. While the caster's spirit is away controlling the undead, the caster's body lies in a coma and is vulnerable to attacks. Al-Qadim: Arabian Adventures. The spell Sand Form allows the recipient's mind to control a body made of sand up to 100 miles away from their true body. While the spell is operating, the recipient's real body is paralyzed and cannot defend itself from attack. |

Avatar: The Last Airbender. Aang's body is vulnerable to attack whenever he crosses over to the spirit realm. Because of this, someone has to keep watch while he's projecting. This was seen in the 'Siege of the North' part 1, where Katara elects to stand guard while Aang crosses over to seek council with Koh, the Face Stealer. An act which left him vulnerable to be kidnapped by Zuko, after he defeated Katara. | |

Imani's Ultimate ability in Paladins summons a dragon that she can control. While controlling the dragon, Imani is completely immobile and can be killed if an enemy happens to find her. Players must strike a balance of being far enough from the control point that enemies can't just walk up to her casually, but close enough that the dragon has time to reach the point before getting gunned down. | |

When Doctor Strange is engaging in Astral Projection, he tries to make sure that someone (usually his manservant Wong) will be present to watch over his body to make sure nothing happens to him while he's "gone." Occasionally, however, a threat comes up which is too much for Wong, and this trope plays out straight. | |

On Mega Man X4, you get the special ability "Soul Body" which is basically a hologram of X that does damage. However, if the real X is damaged the hologram disappears. If you charge the ability you can create a Hard Light clone of X (without any armor parts or the ability to charge though), however the real X freezes wherever he was when he summoned it, and loses any momentuum he had previously, meaning that if you summoned him somewhere where the terrain could be destroyed or moved, you are in danger of dying after the clone disappears. Zero also get's his ability, Raijingeki, a powerful middle range attack, that can't be interrupted once started, meaning that any opnonent can attack him from any angle that is not directly in front of him In Mega Man X5, Zero gets the ability Twin Dream, which is basically the same as X's Soul Body, and the W-shredder, which is also similar to the other, but his drawback is the one of the Raijingeki. X meanwhile gets the F-Laser, a remote control attack that has the combined drawback of both uncharged and charged Soul Body (freezes X, and can be hurt while using it)...however when charged it is a bit of a Game-Breaker. Another weapon is the Tri-Thunder, while used normally is a good weapon that fires in 3 directions dealing a descent amount of damage, when charged a lot of lightning bolts appear on screen for a few seconds...randomly, meaning that you can't aim it at your opponent leaving you open for an attack (you still have your regular buster, though). |

Shadowrun: Deckers in the Matrix. They are vulnerable in a similar manner to The Matrix example while they're plugged in. Things Mr. Welch Is No Longer Allowed to Do in an RPG has an entry based on this. When a mage projects himself into astral space, he leaves his body behind on the physical plane. If the body is moved, the mage might might not be able to find his way back to it. If an astral opponent hits the mage's body with a spell, the spell will take effect on the physical plane at that location, possibly affecting the people guarding the mage's body. |

In Star Wars: Battlefront II, you are killed if the turret you are remote controlling from the bridge on a capital ship is destroyed in a space battle. Something about the control panel feeding back. Additionally, you're immobile while using the turret, so an enemy boarding your ship can easily go up and shoot you in the back. This also applies to the remote-controlled missiles and Recon Droids, which are controlled manually but take control away from your character while active, making you a sitting duck. | |

The second-to-last boss of Geist can be difficult due to this. The best way to defeat him is to leave your body, possess the missiles he fires at you, and pilot them back at him. But you have to be careful, as enemy ghosts are prone to jumping into your body and running into a One-Hit Kill furnace if you aren't there to resist it. | |

In Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, something like this happens in a particularly spoileriffic manner: Kuze, the Major, and Batou are pinned down in an abandoned building on a small island. A nuclear missile has been fired on the island. Meanwhile, the Tachikomas discover that their bodies are actually being controlled by a spacecraft in Earth's orbit and decide to attempt to hack the satellite. When the Tachkomas become aware of the full situation, they order the satellite to block the missile in order to save their beloved Mr. Batou, knowing full well the consequences. | |

DC Heroes: While a character is using the Spirit Travel power, their body is left behind and is very vulnerable. Normally, when a character uses the power Personality Transfer, their body temporarily disappears. However, the power can be bought with the Limitation "Body Left Behind While Transferred". This means that when they're possessing someone, their body remains behind, motionless and apparently lifeless. If their body is destroyed while they're gone, they're in big trouble. |

Alternity supplement Beyond Science: A Guide to FX. When a shaman enters a trance in order to perform a miracle, they are out of contact with the real world and their body is vulnerable. If he receives a Critical Failure on the skill check for the miracle, his spirit is lost in the spirit world. If the spirit is lost for too long, the spirit fades and the body is left in a vegetative state. | |

GURPS 3rd edition supplement GURPS Undead. If a person's soul leaves their body for any reason (such as undergoing a near-death experience), any ghost nearby can try to possess the body with a high chance of succeeding. If the ghost expends enough fatigue and gets really lucky, they can control the possessed body for up to 36 days. | |

BattleTanx subverts with the Guided Missiles. If the player's tank is destroyed while it is using Guided Missiles, the player will continue to control the missile until it hits something. | |
