Boon Requests

[fairyfoes]

Hey, guys! The Lambton Worms event has now officially ended (feel free to keep backtagging, of course!), with the remaining few either slithering off or burrowing far away from sight. Those royal proclamations are now being followed up on!

Wherever Shard-holder characters are today they will be approached by fairies or imps, depending on their alignment, bearing a piece of parchment and a quill. They will urge your character to write down a request for an item or power from their monarchs in exchange for fighting or supporting their faction and take it away through a fairy-ring when it is written. There are three easy rules your character will be informed MUST NOT be broken:

1) "Do not call for time and space to be bent to your will!"
2) "You may not request another's true love or devotion!"
3) "Ask not for a road home or the loved ones whence you came!"

Essentially, the OOC boundaries relayed through IC means to your character are to avoid game-breaking demands being made. They will be approved, altered or denied here (starting tomorrow!) so that when your character receives their boon on the morning of 25th April there is no fuss, no muss! Later that day is when the first NPC post will be posted on the OOC community. ICly, the fairies/imps will let your character know when the royal audience will be taking place (and if you cannot make it to your respective throne-room, the lockets will be employed for a royal chat). Characters cannot make direct requests in the throne-room log, so if you are uncertain whether your boon is passable just leave a mention here of any alterations you would be happy for it to undergo, to give us an idea of how to approach any problems.

Feel free to link to any threads (completed or ongoing) wherein your character is battling the worms or tending to the injured/fortifying the castles. Anything where support has been shown for your faction will qualify for a boon. Boon Requests will be left open for 3 days until 00:01am 23rd London GMT. This will give the mod team time to sort through everything and ensure everyone has their boons arranged OOC in time to receive them IC.

Simply C&P the below into your comment:

<b>CHARACTER NAME:</b> <b>CANON:</b> <b>FACTION:</b> <b>RELEVANT THREAD(S):</b> <a href="PASTE LINK HERE">Link #1</a> <a href="PASTE LINK HERE">Link #2</a> <b>NUMBER OF WORMS SLAIN:</b> <b><u>BOON REQUEST</u>:</b> <b>ALTERATIONS:</b>

If your character doesn't want to request a boon they may simply wave away the fairies/imps. It is not possible to "save up" Boon Requests for later events, so make sure to get yours in if you want one!

CHARACTER NAME: Maglor
CANON: Tolkien
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 Link #2 both ongoing
NUMBER OF WORMS SLAIN: uh none on his own I don't think, but he's had a hand in at least 2 reasonable sized ones, plus lots of littler things
BOON REQUEST: Can he ask for something to help the Terminator to leave the Station without shutting down? otherwise we can go with alcohol
ALTERATIONS: n/a I think?

[fairyfoes]

If the Terminator wishes to leave the Station then, as discussed with the player prior to their app for such a unique character being submitted, they will need to complete an event and have him place his own boon request to be turned 70% human from his organic layer. We're sorry, but boons are rewards for participation in events and cannot be traded from player to player on such a personal level.

Maglor will receive 3 barrel-sized casks of wine.

loling forever
