It's a skill like any other, so it's going to differ depending on you. But, B. It feels like being a wizard or demigod of some sort.

It always reminded me of those stories (like, D&D/myth type stuff) where a godling of some sort is fairly vulnerable most of the time, until they get onto their own home plane, where they become fully omnipotent again. Kinda a "you don't want to fuck with me here" sort of thing.

Probably colored by the fact I had my first one as a child, and used it to stop a nightmare in progress, which was very memorable.
