Granted. Congratulations. You now have knowledge of everything that is was and ever will be, however you are locked away in a door less and window less cell which prevents you from acting on your newfound knowledge. 

I call upon the powers of the nightwatcher to fulfill my boon. I wish to know the meaning of life.

What do you get when you multiply six by nine? Forty two.

As your bane, you are now Marvin.

 

I wish to out-insult Hoid.

You succumb to the existential despair of the truth. There is no meaning of life. There is no purpose to your existence. People and things just are without any inherent purpose or value.

You wish to kill yourself, but if there is not point to anything, what would be the point of that?

 

I wish for a bandana. Just a bandana.

Granted. You receive the most hideous bandana in all of creation this drives you hide from the world in shame.

I call upon the powers of the nightwatcher to fulfill my boon. I wish to be the most respected person in the history of humankind.

Ehh, it just means Nath had to grant two wishes. Not an issue.

Granted.

As a natural consequence of your wish, that makes you a martyr. Martyrs tend to be respected more than living, breathing people. So you can expect that you will die a tragic death sometime soon.

Your actual bane though is that the extent to which everyone else loves and respects you is commensurate with how much you despise yourself.

 

I wish for a hammock.

Granted you get have a hammock which puts you into an unbreakable eternal sleep.

Granted.

You are now Battah, patron herald of the Order of Elsecallers. You have access to the surge of transportation, among other things.

Your bane is the oathpact. Thousands of years of excruciating torture between the desolations ultimately drives you to abandon your honorblade, and go into hiding.

 

I wish for an amusing pun.

Granted. You can now control all of the attractions at the animal kingdom in Disney World. Your bane is to always have a desire that you don't know the source of and can never quench.

Granted, but you are unable to understand how to use it no matter how hard you try

I call upon the powers of the nightwatcher to fulfill my boon. I wish to have the power to multiply any object that I desire.

[Sparkrunner he/him]

Granted, but every time you multiply something, you multiply one of your own body parts. (Fingers, noses, etc.)

I call upon the powers of the nightwatcher to fulfill my boon. I wish, and the wish to be fulfilled at exactly 11:00 AM US mountain time, the wish to be granted fully and completely, within the time of 11:00 AM US Mountain Time and 11:01 AM US Mountain Time, I wish to be able to fly, flying immediately whenever I desire, with direction and speed of flight being controlled by the opening and closing of my fist as indicated in section four, paragraph three of the nightwatcher boon agreement. I wish for the ability to fly whenever I desire to last until my death. Control of flight lasts until my death. The power of flying shall have no failures during my life, a failure being that I lose control, or cannot fly when I wish.

In the act of visiting the entity known as nightwatcher, your request constitutes consent to the proposed consideration. Additionally, the aforementioned act constitutes a waiving of the right to legal recourse against the entity known as nightwatcher, as a result of any consequences incurred by visiting said entity.

Your wish shall be granted according to the terms of the above-mentioned consideration, between the times of 11:00 AM US Mountain Time and 11:01 AM US Mountain Time, on the day of 9th of August, 2042. You will have the ability to fly, with control over bearing and speed of flight, in accordance with the stipulated means of control. By the terms of the proposed contract, you shall not receive any of the required secondary powers that typically accompany flight.

In exchange, your sense of balance has been revoked, and you shall have difficulty walking without support.

 

I wish for the ability to heal quickly.

The Nightwatcher laughs at the specificity of your wish. Then she grants you the ability to take beautiful pictures. Your boon is that you now see in black and white.

I wish to be a electrum compounder

Dang....Ninja'd. But you didn't make a wish, so...........

Okay, you are an electrum compounder. Your bane is that you are forever onward illiterate, and cannot make intelligible noises.

Granted. You can now heal quickly. So quickly and efficiently that you become completely immortal, and when the Sun explodes billions of years later, you experience the excruciating pain, but survive to live in the cold dark of space.

 

I wish for the ability to never have to sleep and have no ill side effects effects.

Granted You will never require sleep and you become one of the world's biggest celebrities as a result of that and not as the direct response to your wish you are pestered endlessly by paparazzi and the press which drives you insane.

I call upon the powers of the nightwatcher to fulfill my boon. I wish to have the power to absorb and make use of the knowledge of every book, newspaper, and magazine that I touch.

I mean hey, at least I'll eventually fall from the sky on some distant planet a few millennia later.

[Podman]

Wait, I forgot your bane! Your entire body is completely numb for the rest of your infinite life.

Granted you now know the definition of the word truth though you have lost the ability to speak the truth.

I call upon the powers of the nightwatcher to fulfill my boon. I wish for the ability to set reality when i speak.

Ummm... Okay? Granted.

Your skin sloughs off around you and coalesces into a horrifying skin-ferret creature. You now no longer have any skin, which means you aren't going to live very long at all.

As your bane... Do you even need a bane to go with that? I think not.

 

I wish for the gift of feruchemy.
