Granted. the transformations can be controlled as long as you lick your elbow at least once every hour

I wish to be a stick

Granted.

For your bane, you desperately want to be a burning stick.

For my wish, I desire to be able to control what I look like after transformation.

[DrakeMarshall he/him]

Granted. The nightwatcher turns you into a kandra, and you may now fully control your transformations.

As your bane, your wish has caused the deaths of two people who were used to make your spikes.

 

I wish for truth.

Fine, you will have truth, but you will be unable to speak or hear.

 

I wish to be a narwhal

Granted! Your bones and your flesh begin to shrink. Your clothes grow baggy and your feet grow hairy. You suddenly have a longing for second breakfast as well. 

Your bane is that inevitably, everything you want or need is just slightly above your reach, so you're constantly needing a step stool.

I wish for the power to make people strike embarrassing poses without them knowing I did it to them.

Fine, but you will do the embarrassing pose too

 

I want a Boon without having a Bane

[DrakeMarshall he/him]

Granted. Your boon is that there is no bane. Nothing happens.

The nightwatcher is irritated that you wasted her time and slaps you across the face.

 

I wish for a pet lifeless steel inquisitor (seriously though that sounds terrifying).

Granted, you get a pet lifeless squirrel that used to somehow be a Steel Inquisitor.

 

Your bane is that it continuously says "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!" at the most awkward moments.

 

I wish for everyone to expect the Spanish Inquisition!

[DrakeMarshall he/him]

The nightwatcher gazes at you in shock. A voice booms in your head, "NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!"

Your wish is granted, and everyone expects the Spanish Inquisition. Then the Spanish Inquisition, knowing that it is expected, does not immediately show up. As time goes by people aren't sure when the Spanish Inquisition will appear, so they stop expecting its immanent arrival. Then the Spanish Inquisition unexpectedly arrives. Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

 

I wish to know what I should wish for so that I would not regret wishing for it.

Granted. However, as you've already used your wish, you can't use this knowledge. You live your life in regret for wasting a wish.

I wish for an infinite amount of Disneyland churros

Granted! They appear sugared and toasty, and you can summon them like a Shardblade. They are, however, all your body is now able to metabolize. I hope you reeeeally like them.

I want to be able to turn into an awesome dragon. (I'm in the mood to collect riches and maybe burninate the countryside... You know, just a little.)

I understood the consequences. Considering how many wishes are regrettable, I think such knowledge would make one that much wiser...

Granted, you can become an awesome dragon at will, and you now have eternal youth. 

Your bane? In order to utilize this new ability, you must make a demon-like contract with someone, giving that person complete and utter control over you.

 

I wish for two truly devilish banes.

[Clockwork he/him]

1) You continually get hungry, and even if you eat, it doesn't fill you, but you cannot die from hunger. Your hunger will consume you.

2) All humans will forever stay away from you. They will never talk to you. You will never have friends. All good human contact has been taken from you.

Your bane:  You already have two. You don't get more.

 

I wish for two even worse banes than I gave.

1) All of the people you get near to will get a disease that will cause them to die in one month

2) The Nightwatcher will summon The Flash so he can travel back in time and KILL BRANDON SANDERSON! 

 

I wish to read Oathbringer!

Granted, you will read Oathbringer.. 30 years after it comes out. 

Your bane is that you will never again read a Brandon Sanderson book (aside from Oathbringer), so the book has no context because you will have forgotten everything about Brandon;s books in the 30 years.

On the plus side, maybe a book written 30 years before 2047 will have some monetary value... or perhaps not.

I have 3 wishes:

1. I wish to be a billionaire with a luxury mansion

2. I wish for immortality and eternal youth

3. I wish for 2 creative banes that nullify the boon.

Have fun...

"You have the nerve to ask two boons of the night watcher? Two!? Fine... I am feeling generous today..." The Nightwatcher cackles and waves a whispy hand. The  scenery changes and you find yourself elevated and hanging off the front of a beautiful new mansion. Your new mansion. Your arms and legs are bound to the building by a billion dollars worth of precious metals and gems. You find that you have become a figure head for your new mansion. The Nightwatcher floats up in front of you. "You have your mansion and your wealth. You have received your first boon, and now you shall receive your bane. Your senses shall all grow 100 times stronger. You shall see better, smell better, hear better, taste better, (Nightwatcher chuckles at this.) and feel more intense than any mortal has ever known. Now for your second boon... You shall have it." Nightwatcher lays a cold hand on your chest. Do to your inhanced senses, it feels as if you've been touched by the grave itself. "You are now immortal. No physical wound shall be able to kill you. You will not age. You shall forever be as you are right now. As for your bane. You shall be devoured each day by birds and rodents. All manner of forest creatures and various insects. They shall consume your flesh every day: however, being immortal, your flesh will re knit every night making you whole again. With your increased sences, you will feel each bite, 100 fold. You will hear the flesh being ripped from your body. You will smell and taste the blood and bile 100 times more intensely. All while you see every little detail of what's happening to you. Enjoy..." The Nightwatcher begins to fade from your view.

 

I wish for a burrito.

Granted. Everyone makes fun of you the same way Wit makes fun of (nearly) everyone. 

Your bane is that you are unable to come up with clever things to say to people. 

I wish to be fluent in High Imperial
