Boon Requests

[fairyfoes]

Hey, guys! Boon Requests are up, which means the fairies and imps are out and about bothering people to note down the number one item on their wishlist again! Only the fairies or imps from YOUR faction will be turning up, as usual, but they will be noting down all the ways you helped heal or slay the Ainsels and feral imps ... and where. This is echoed in the C&P box below for you to fill in and will tie into next month's event in a very exciting way!

Wherever Shard-holder characters are in the Drabwurld, at some point 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, power or favour from their monarchs in exchange for fighting or supporting their faction and they will 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 so that when your character receives their boon on the morning of 23rd June (you can pick any time for them to be delivered/show up) no matter where they are there is no fuss, no muss! The royal audiences are bi-monthly and the second is due to be held on the 23rd too, which the fairies and imps will also be informing people. Feel free to link to any threads (completed or ongoing) that will qualify for a boon.

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> Use as many links as you need! <b>NUMBER OF HEALED FAIRIES/SLAIN IMPS:</b> A quick overview of how many fairies were healed and imps were slain. You can give a general number and round it up! <b>LOCATION OF HEALED FAIRIES/SLAIN IMPS:</b> Whereabouts were you/they when they went back to normal? This will tie into next month's event! <b><u>BOON REQUEST</u>:</b> <b>POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS:</b> If you think your boon is a little too awkward, put some suggestions here for how we might alter it and still manage to grant the request.

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's Elf History of Tears and Shinies
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): technically nothing played out but Link #1 Link #2 I've implied a few things?
NUMBER OF HEALED FAIRIES/SLAIN IMPS: Er. I dunno but he probably killed a fair few imps stress relief, and he only knows about one fairy for sure but considering he was singing pretty much every day the last month there may have been more? there are suddenly a lot of depressed fairies around the station
LOCATION OF HEALED FAIRIES/SLAIN IMPS: at the station!
BOON REQUEST: Let my brother go "as the Queen wishes" ie he doesn't trust enough to ask for anything, but he wouldn't be rude enough to refuse and the only thing he truly wants they can't give him anyway SO...
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Surprise me! ... Maybe something to remind him of Elrond or cheer him up IDK

BOON SURPRISE!

Maglor will receive a photograph of Elrond (given he is currently at the Station, so it needn't be a painted likeness) in a hand-sized gilded frame. He will also receive a new warm cloak made of bandersnatch fur that will never wear out or thin.

He will weep buckets over the pic thankee <3
