Nightwatcher Boon/Bane (Game)

[Quivil]

Granted.

Your bane is that any wishes you come up with as a result of this boon won't get granted.

 

I wish for a falcon-friend who I can talk to in my head and it will talk back and we'll understand each other.

That's... strangely specific

Granted, but you will end up with bird poop all over you everytime you initiate a conversation with it

I wish for the ability to create any element I want from nothing 

[Quivil]

Granted, but it will be extremely unstable and explode shortly after you create it.

I wish to be a copper ferring.

Are... are you sure you want to give one person the power to create unstable isotopes?! I mean I'll take it but... 

[Quivil]

Yes.

You also get a great geas: Cause chaos.

Granted. You can only access your copperminds, however, by lifting a puppy into the air and chanting “I like donuts” over and over again.

I wish to be a cadmium misting.

[Quivil]

Granted, but you can never stop burning until your metals run out, and you start burning as soon as you swallow metal.

I wish the mulching was already done.

Granted! You get to be a cadmium misting with the same bane as you gave me!

I wish for pizza.

Oh I suppose I could get rich using that power, and that would automatically entail some unethical chaos

Granted, I'll even add my fav toppings to it: mushrooms!

Sadly, by that I mean, it has fungus growing all over it, but hey those fungi are all edible, so you could go ahead & cook em

I wish to become royalty!

[The Technovore he/him]

Granted! Your bane is that you're transported to the year 1916, in Prussia. Have fun with the World Wars, revolutions, and communists.

I wish for a sword that shoots swords.

Edited May 8, 2021 by The Technovore

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

Granted.

Your bane is that it shoots swords both away from you and towards you.

I wish for a lifetime supply of donuts.

[Arith Matic he/him]

"A lifetime supply of donuts?" The Nightwatcher says to you, "In my millennia of granting these boons, never before have I been asked for a lifetime supply of donuts.  You would think that it would eventually come up, you know?  But I guess not... not until NOW".  

     Upon hearing that final word, you wake up from a deep sleep.  it appears that you are intact, body-wise.  Nothing has happened...yet.  As you regain your wits, you try to determine two things.  The first thing that crosses through your head is where are the donuts I asked for? The second thing, of course, is what was my bane? Those two questions combined make you think.  You rack your brain for the exact words you asked the Nightwatcher.   I wish for a lifetime supply of donuts.  You recall this, but immediately, you see where you went wrong.  You never specifically said WHERE your lifetime supply would appear.  Now that you think about it, you also think of another thing.  You never specifically said what species' lifetime you wanted a supply of donuts of.  Then it hits you.  You try to force yourself out the door of your place of living, but it's forced shut.  This can't be, you wonder as you suddenly notice a few cracks on the ceiling that DEFINITELY were not there before.  Those cracks widen slowly as you realize the answers to your first (and soon-to-be-last)  questions upon waking up.  You are crushed under millions of donuts, as the Nightwatcher has given you a lifetime supply of donuts fit only for the Methuselah pine, which is now at 4,853 years of age.  Not only that, she has placed your lifetime supply of millions of donuts right on top of your place of living, crushing you into a delicious grave.

  

I wish for there to be such a thing as a free lunch.

This may be the only time I have ever agreed with you on something

What’s your wish?

 

[Bejarden he/him]

Oh that’s right

...I wish for Winter to come to Florida 

 

[Chinkoln he/him]

Granted. Winter has come, but like normal, it feels no different than summer.

I wish my spine would finish healing

Spoken like somebody who’s never been to Florida

Its 105 in the summer and 69 in the Winter, that’s a BIG difference

Unfortunately every time you eat something it will now taste like mud

I have been to Florida many times, and I know exactly what I speak of. Literally the only difference is that with 69 I wear a light jacket, and I continue to wear that jacket until the temperatures get up to 90. Other that that jacket, I feel no difference.

You had no wish, so you have no bane either

I wish that people would remember to wish during their wishes

I’m sorry but you are wrong

The humidity in the winter vs humidity in the summer is so different that to say there is no difference is... not a smart thing to say

I don’t know maybe south Florida and North Florida are different 

Your wish is granted

Your boon is that it starts after this post

I have no regard for humidity, but it does change drastically from place to place. Utah and North Carolina. Florida and Texas. California and Nevada. Peru and Canada. Egypt and Russia. England and Australia. Drastically different humidities, but it doesn’t matter because I don’t care about humidity.

Hmmmm

I wish that humidity was perfectly uniform throughout the globe, for the sake of those who care.

Granted! You get to take your pick, would you rather that I flooded the planet, or drained it of moisture completely? 

Kidding! No, the best I, a mere sliver of Cultivation can do, is make it so that you feel all humidities exactly the same. Since that essentially does nothing for you, your bane is that if you go 3 minutes without air, you die immediately. 

 

I wish for to haves the pancake.

you get des pancakkes!

you do always must have to talk in dis way do.

I wish to be able to read twice as fast.

[Bejarden he/him]

Granted

But you cannot process the words that you are reading

I wish for many many things

[Kelsier'sGodComplex she/her]

Granted, you get many many bread crumbs

I wish my cold would go away (I've been sick for a week now)

[Toothless of Shinovar]

Granted, but now you feel like you do not have a cold and accidentally start spreading a new different COVID virus

I wish people are not scared of the truth.
