Granted. When you look at people, you also see how long they have left to live, shown in a red bar underneath their name. Underneath that is a blue bar that shows their skill level in what they are currently doing. Also, from now on you despise all MMORPJ's. Your bane is that when you look at books, you see the author, title, genre, length of pages, word count, character count, and all of the main plot spoilers. You also see a meter that tells you how much you would have enjoyed reading the book without having the spoilers.

I wish that my taste buds perceive everything as tasting wonderful. Not the same, still variety, but everything tastes delicious.

Congratulations. Everything tastes delicious. Including yourself. And poisonous plants. And mushrooms. And desks and books. And you end up taking bites out of everything. And people get scared after you take a bite of yourself (which apparently was delicious). Your bane is that you are now bereft of peripheral vision. Your normal focus works just fine, but you cannot see people sneaking up on you from the side. 

I wish to know the meaning of life

Okay. You are given a book of the meaning of life. It has everything you want to know. It also has more words than Oathbringer will. And is written completely in binary. Your bane is that you have a sudden dislike of numbers. And reading.

I wish that I can command things to snuggle me at will, including but not limited to puppies, bunny rabbits, blankets, etc.

Granted, but you are now allergic to every type of animal's fur/skin/scales/whatever and cotton/fiber/silk/etc.

I wish that I were invincible to all physical harm, including but not limited to fire, disease, nuclear explosions, Shardblades, etc.

Granted, but every time you receive physical damage you age one year. Get shot, age a year, get blown up, age a year, get a paper cut, age a year.

I wish for a cursed object.

Said object carries the curse of burden. Regardless of the object itself it has absolutely no use and to carry it feels as if you were carrying a great weight. Attempts to abandon or destroy it have no effect as it will simply return to you.

I wish to have clarity of mind and purpose, to know what I should do in life.

Granted, you have perfect clarity of mind of purpose, and have even become 3x smarter than you were before! Then you were suddenly struck dumb and paralyzed, the doctors saying you don't have long to live. Your ultra smart brain can tell your death is imminent so... enjoy your clarity!

I wish for an Inquisitor Cat to exist. Inquisicat, if you will.

Eh at least I know my fate.

Said Inquisicat was first spiked with metal driven through your heart, killing you (duh), before going on to create more of its kind, eventually leading to an epic cataclysmic battle against the Mistborn Llamas which destroyed 90% of the planet.

Cataclysmic! 

Also, you forgot a wish, so I wish for access to every form of investiture. i.e. I have the powers of a Fullborn, Elantrian, Herald, etc.

Oh whoops  

You have the powers for only a second before a chromium Allomantic savant attacks you using a specialised technique which removes all your power and leaves you barren Investiture-wise.

I wish to have a pocket universe where time stands still and I have control over all things inside that I can access and leave at will.

[ShadowLord_Lith he/him]

Granted, though the ability to enter your realm has a cost consisting of you removing a portion of your body permanently.(i.e. Cut off a finger, toe, limb, etc...)

I wish for permanent access to every form of investiture as well as the ability to gift power to others. (I made a double wish, I get a double curse. Have Fu-uuun!)

Okay, here goes. The Investiture is permanent because it is part of your soul. The two are directly connected, and inseperable, so... when you gift your power to others you die. Your bane is that you cannot retain memory of anything Sanderson related. Books, FAQs, his name, Cosmere, Investiture, etc. So you forgot you have powers. And you can't read anymore Sanderson books. That, and since you have no practice of your powers, you have no control, so you may randomly accidentally gift your powers away at any time. 

I wish to have the ability to raise and lower my 'stats' at will. Charisma, athletic ability, intelligence, etc.

[Straw he/him]

Granted, however, every 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 seconds, your insanity stat resets to 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000. I wish for the ability to grant boons and banes.

Edited June 23, 2017 by Straw

[StrikerEZ he/him]

Granted, but every time you grant someone a boon/bane, you have to be granted a boon/bane (either of your own choosing, or from some external source). 

I wish I could be immune to the Nightwatcher's banes.

[Toaster Retribution he/him]

Granted, but you will only be immune to the non-life threatening ones.

I wish I could have a living, talking sock as a friend.

[Stormseeker he/him]

Granted; unfortunately, this particular sock happens to be Emil Zapotek's right foot sock, the one he wore in the 1952 Olympics. It can talk, but only in Czechoslovakian, and will only talk if you run long distance races. Otherwise, it treats you with utter disdain, and claims in broken English that Czechoslovakia should still be a country because "it is magický."

[Shqueeves]

You failed to make a wish. I wish for more wishes

[Storming Radiant he/him]

Granted. You can now make infinite wishes, But they will only be fulfilled after you eat an elephant. 

I wish I can come up withe better answers. 

[Toaster Retribution he/him]

You will come up with answers so good that no one else understands them.

I wish for the ability to turn myself into a duck with a Nahel bond.

[StrikerEZ he/him]

(That can be interpreted two ways: you wish to turn yourself into a duck that has a Nahel bond, or you wish to be able to turn yourself [presumably at will] into a duck with a Nahel bond. I'm gonna go with the first one)

Granted, but you are permanently a duck. You can't change back into a human.

[Leviathan]

I wish that I could change my body at will to match my gender identity...

[Toaster Retribution he/him]

Granted, but you can never ever recieve any boons or gifts. 

I wish I had a pizza.

Edited July 10, 2017 by Toaster Retribution

[Leviathan]

Granted.

The Pizza contains Potassium Benzoate

[DrakeMarshall he/him]

You have failed to make a wish!!!

The nightwatcher stares at you expectantly, waiting for a wish that will never come.

After a very long, awkward silence, she pries open your mouth to see if you do in fact have a tongue. She discovers you do, and is angered by your insolence to visit her and remain silent.

She shouts "have it your way" and rips out your tongue, so you will remain silent forevermore.

 

I wish for an interesting vial of metal.

[StrikerEZ he/him]

You get a sparkly vial of silver. However, when you touch the vial of metal, you forget your name, age, where you live, and the names of ally your family members.

I wish for infinite money (in dollars, spheres, etc.)

You receive an infinite number of colorful seashells that were used as currency by an extinct tribe on an isolated island no one knows the location of. However, you now have to find your way out of this infinite pile of shells before you die of dehydration.

 

I wish Reckoners was part of the Cosmere! Muhahaha!

Very well. The nightwatcher ascends to become Calamity, the dual shard of Odium and Ruin.

Forevermore she assigns people "gifts" that give them fantastic superpowers. However these gifts open people up to Calamity's influence, making them evil. This causes death and destruction on a level that makes the desolations look like child's play.

What's more, earth is teleported into the cosmere just as the nightwatcher ascends and begins wreaking havoc.

Enjoy.

 

I wish for something I won't regret wishing for.
