Pain will feel however you expect it to feel.
I don't usually feel "pain" in my projections. At least, I don't remember the last time I did.
I have felt pain in dreams. (none lucid, standard dreams). I've had a recurring dream (tho thankfully not for a while) where a dog has bitten me where the sun doesn't shine... (mens private bits!) And bitten hard and held on.. Foook it hurt in the dream.. to the point where I forced myself awake and still felt it feeling a bit tingly and sore for a about a minute as I fully woke up.
Not a nice dream to have!
I once had a dream of being bitten by a dog as well. (A dog that was real in waking life and would almost certainly have never bitten anyone, least of all me, who he knew well.) In any case, in this dream, he was holding my finger in his teeth and refusing to let go. There was no pain involved at all though. It was strange. I knew it should have hurt and that I should have felt something, but I didn't. It was like having the idea that I was in pain without actually experiencing it. It never did become a lucid dream however, though I would think that such an oddity might well be cause to become aware of dreaming.
Actually I don't tend to feel pain in dreams at all typically. The times I can recall painful situations in dreams, it's always that same thing... the idea that it should hurt and strangely feeling nothing. The one exception i can think of to this was the one night I dreamed of having an absolutely horrible headache. In that one though pain seemed to actually be the main theme of the dream itself. I'm guessing that's why it was different.
A lot of experience in where there should be pain, I have felt vibrations, which usually lead to getting thrown out of the projection.
Cheers,
Contenteo
I don't think pain in a dream is at all what you "expect", but more what you need to feel for the Dream Master to get the point across.
