Phlipz1 Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 Titles pretty self explanatory. Hypothetical. You visit the nightwatcher in the valley. You ask for a boon. What do you ask for? And what do you think would be a curse that balances the boon enough? Let me know your thoughts. I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therunner Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 Interesting question, the part about the curse will be a bit complicated as the curse does not seem to particularly match the boon (at least for those given by Nightwatcher). I would probably ask for either healthy confidence or better memory, for the curse I would expect either some physical ailment (I stop being able to write properly for example) or sensory one (everything tastes bad). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsdaughter613 Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 My older daughter to be healed. I suspect my curse would be mild; the only other time we’ve heard of someone asking for someone else they got a very mild curse that barely impacted them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halyo_Alex Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 A greater capability to improve the lives of people living in this world. The curse would probably shorten my lifespan, whatever it ends up being exactly, but that's okay, as long as everyone else is happier afterwards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honorless Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 A safe haven for people who need it, I don't have high hopes that the Nightwatcher could provide something like that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinkoln Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 The ability to completely resist evil temptations (I’m pretty religious). I think my bane would be a disconnection from others. While I thrive spiritually, I would be cut off from my family and friends, unable to help teach them and guide them through life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would actualy stunt your spiritual progression though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I would be tempted but I would recognize the temptation and be able to resist it. I would overpower the works of the devil. God has given us everything we need to be perfect in life, though it would probably be better if I sinned them repented. Jesus was able to resist the temptations of the devil but still progress spiritually. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlipz1 Posted May 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 aw all of these are so nice! humans arent meant to be nice as you lot . i know the curse doesnt always match the boon, dont see how seeing life upside down correlates to cloth increase but i just wanted to know your thoughts. especially like @Kingsdaughter613, selfless is nice! @Honorlessi dont know if the nightwatcher could grant that, but given its a nice one theres always cultivation to help you as for myself? i think id ask for the capacity to see what my words are going to make people feel. in reality i have trouble seeing the consequences of my actions. that would help. curse whise? probably heightened emotions not unlike taravangian, though to a lesser extent and not fluctuating. assuming theyd have to balance out that seems right, so id have a hard time stopping myself anyways 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WandererNearby Posted May 25, 2021 Report Share Posted May 25, 2021 (edited) I would ask for my family to not have any issues with food allergies/sensitivities. My wife has celiac's, my mother-in-law is a vegan only partly by choice, both my cousin and I have troubles with dairy and my sister has more food allergies than anyone I have heard of (she is literally allergic to dozens of different food items). I don't know what the curse would be for that. Edited May 25, 2021 by DougTheRug 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlipz1 Posted May 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2021 its selfless so probably something small like an allergy yourself, or something massive like all of the allergies becoming yours. headcannon btw 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
