Nightwatcher Boon/Bane (Game)

[Stormgate he/him]

You are Hoid. I also grant you the power of the ten Surges, which cause the 17th Shard (both of them) to hunt you down and figure out how you got that power.

I wish to let it be known that my last boon was copied from Lift, and that it was a test of the accuracy of this game.

[Magestar he/him]

Done.  Your bane;  You incite the wrath of those who think you are suggesting the game is inaccurate.

I wish for pie.

But a few pages ago I got a bane where I was made into hoid...

Anyway

Granted... The nightwatcher produces a pie made from chocolate covered mushrooms with cayenne pepper and powdered lemonade concentrate on top. Don't ask me where she got it. As your bane, after finishing the pie, you suffer from mental trauma, and whenever someone talks about pies or you see a pie in the future you uncontrollably flinch.

I wish to know what I could wish for so that I won't regret making the wish.

Granted.  The night watcher grants your wish, and whispers the answer in your ear.  The answer blows your mind, and you become unfocused and creepy.

Granted, it's a magical pie, each time the pie dish empties you get a new one of the type you are most craving at that moment, you can not share it, it's nutrionally complete (an healthy for you), half the calories of the pie it's copying, and never spoils. However, a patch of skin in the middle of your back forever itches, it can not be treated and it is incessant, about the pain level of touching your eye with a hint of pepper oil (just a hint). While pie is in your mouth the discomfort is cut in half.

My wish is for the ability to heal any person.

(Also I skipped the last response cause it had no wish! And pie is cool)

We've been treating that as a grave insult to the Nightwatcher's time, so give the user a bane. The boon could be letting the person live.....

So @Magestar, your bane is to be the Jar Jar Binks (most hated/reviled) type character in one of Brandon's stories. Better hope for a one off novelette!!

 

So, healing any person... Granted! But when healing someone else, you have to transfer your life energy to them. You can also siphon off life energy from someone else if they volunteer to allow it to heal yourself. Healing yourself is always less efficient than healing others. Your bane is whatever was healed will glow bright, neon red for an hour or so....

I wish for weekends were three days instead of two!!!

[Brightness Enna she/her]

Granted. An extra day is added to each week and called "Skyday". Nobody really knows why. However, it throws off the calendar and now nobody knows how old they are. 

Bane: Lightbulbs cease to work around you, though they aren't broken and continue to function when you leave. This applies to fluorescent, incandescent, and whatever else I'm forgetting. Strangely, LEDs work.

*please ignore this for game purposes*

I was referring to in-world. Sorry I didn't make that clear!

I wish that my phone and laptop batteries would never die. (I mean so I never have to charge either device ever again)

Granted. Your phone is Nokia 1200 and your laptop is Epsom HX 20 (you can't buy new ones) hehe enjoy

Granted. As the best Ravenclaw student of the year, you've taken your NEWTs in Potions, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Charms, Astronomy and Divination, achieving only Outstanding and Exceeds Expectations grades.
Then through some freak accident you end up in the cosmere. You realize your astronomical knowledge, being based on the Milky way, is mostly worthless here. As a side effect your Divination skills also have become rather blotchy, being based on the sun's planetary system.
Then you meet Hoid. As you know he collects magic like other people collect stamps. You're still trying to convince him that no shardic investiture will give him your magic skills because they are something one has to be born with. Arguing with him drives you closer to insanity every day. Your bane is that you never find the nerve to leave him, so you know where this will end.

I wish I could eat as much and what I like without growing sideways.

Granted. But 30 mins after you eat you go into a food coma for several hours.

I wish I could fly.

[KnightRadiant she/her]

Granted. You are now a Windrunner-Coinshot. You don't have your powers through Hemalurgy either. You can access both powers easily, and you don't need to use Stormlight or metals to power it. Because of this lack of the usual Investiture, you now use greenhouse gases to fuel your power. Every time you use your power you clean the atmosphere a little bit. For your bane, you have weird amnesia, where each day you restart without knowing anything but your name and what your powers are.

I wish I could have the motivation to finish writing.

[Stormgate he/him]

Granted. You have a deadline. Your bane is that your right big toe will always be asleep. Not the numb asleep, but the asleep when you have "sparkles" in your toe.

 

I wish to never have to wait longer than 24 Earth hours for anything I don't want to.

[Shadeshadow227]

Granted, but you only have 24 hours left to live.

I wish for the ability to create anything.

Granted. Sure. Why not.

Unfortunately you are now seen as a god, like Adonalsium was. You're being chased by the earth equivalent of the seventeenth shard, and any time you use your power they can sense it and teleport to your exact location. Also, every time you use your power, you give the equal amount of power to the people chasing you. After all, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Luckily if you never use your powers you appear as an ordinary person, and the ones chasing you will never be able to find you.

I wish to travel the cosmere as a worldhopper.

Granted. However, every time you worldhop you forget everything except for how to worldhop. And basic skills like breathing and walking...but everything else in your mind is GONE.

I wish for all Allomantic powers.

((Cough cough)(Fren, you need to wish for a boon))

[Brightness Enna she/her]

Well, @Shadeshadow227, I guess you get them.

Your feet now cannot stand any sort of shoes except for sandals. No boots, no tennis shoes. It's not that bad but your feet sure look funny in the winter when you have to wear socks.

If you had not remembered to ask for a boon, you would have gotten all the banes up until this point. Since @I_am_NOT_fire saved you, they get that curse instead. SEE WHAT BEING NICE DOES TO YOU, PEOPLE OF THE SHARD?! *ahem* 

That being said, I wish I could have a continually updating planner that works perfectly for my needs.

[hoidhunter he/him]

Granted...that planner is a 400lb, 39 year old man named waldo who farts ALL THE TIME, is always chuckling to himself about something on his phone, has tons of food allergies, and gets around on one of those hover board things...you cannot go anywhere without him...he is however incredibly organized an effecient and works tirelessly to maintain your calendar.

I wish for the rights to a sitcom about your relationship with him.

I can just burn Pewter. Ham walks around in a vest throughout winter, and he's fine. So, the bane really doesn't matter. Thank you for free Allomancy.

Granted. But your armpits are now so odorous that you might not be able to find a production crew.

I wish for a classy car that will never break down.

Granted. But you cannot watch it, as, every time you view an episode, you'll go blind until you look away, or the episode ends.

I wish for all Feruchemical abilities.
