SEPTEMBER BOON REQUESTS

[fairyfoes]

A little late again, but it's boon time! Requests are up, which means the fairies and imps are out and about bothering people from their respective factions to note down the number one item on their wishlist again!





Wherever Shardbearer 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 until 24th SEPTEMBER (00:01am LONDON GMT) so that when your character receives their boon on the morning of 25th (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 third is due to be held in October, which the fairies and imps will also be informing people.

This month, everybody who managed to find a feather of any kind gets a boon! Feel free to link to any threads (completed or ongoing) that will show your character getting involved in the event this month. 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> Please make sure to link to anything that indicates your character found a feather! <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. Bear in mind that if you opt for a WILDCARD, it could be COMPLETELY RANDOMIZED: for example, you could just as soon end up with an elephant as a packet of peanuts. Otherwise, make sure to mention something you think your character might want!



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: Zelos Wilder
CANON: Tales of Symphonia
FACTION: Seelie!
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1. Any feathers he found would've been turned in pretty quickly.
BOON REQUEST: "Thanks for the medical supplies, I'm sure it'll come in handy! As for now, I can't think of anything specific I need."
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Wildcard it. Suggestions are weapons (sword and daggers are his main, but I'm flexible), armor, things to enhance his magic or healing capabilities, haircare stuff or even some sort of animal companion 'cause that's always funny. My only request that if it's anything that's power related, it's something he can remove if he chooses because he's got trust issues there.

[rues]

CHARACTER NAME: clarisse la rue.
CANON: pjo.
FACTION: seelie.
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 ( ongoing! )
BOON REQUEST: THE GOLDEN FLEECE
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: since she'll be holding onto it until the audience with the monarchs, it would be great if it could turn into a letter jacket (or even something more period appropriate!) so it can be incognito unless she needs to use it (as the mist doesn't exist here). she can't have everyone know she's walking around with a powerful magical artifact!

[of_the_lake]

CHARACTER NAME: Berserker/Lancelot
CANON: Fate/Zero
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 Lancelot, adventuring to find more feathers, but holding onto one at the moment to keep it from doing harm to folks. He'll happily turn it over to an imp later, especially since he hates imps and kind of hopes the imp would get burned.
BOON REQUEST: "I have little to offer my court other than my sword. Having met dwarven smiths, I realize what my arms may be good for, otherwise-- I would like to be able to smith the same as the fairies, so I could prepare other warriors for the world they'll enter." Essentially, Lancelot knows fairy language, but he'd like to know how to use smithing magic for wrought iron like the fairies do.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: i would actually like for lancelot to get this with a catch--that he has to be in a good state of mind to properly smith fairy enchantments. if he's in a bad mood, depressed or unfocused, he could potentially make weapons or armor with curses(potentially beneficial) on them.

[extramural]

CHARACTER NAME: The Outsider
CANON: Dishonored
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 Link #2
BOON REQUEST: Blink/Transversals/teleportation power up! He wants to be able to stick his nose into people's business again no matter where they are.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Other sea things! Maybe something for his Maidenfish? (He loves them so much ;~;)

[boutant]

CHARACTER NAME: Ariadne
CANON: Inception
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 Link #2
BOON REQUEST: Training from the Larks! (hey razul how u doin)
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Maybe another shadow travel upgrade? Or more architecture team?

[chromosomes]

CHARACTER NAME: John Grimm
CANON: Doom
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 His log with Clara hasn't gotten that far yet.
BOON REQUEST: John would probably write another generic thing because he's the worst, but I'd like for him to somehow get a polar bear. u_u
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Maybe another piece of bling to manipulate a different element?

[truesight]

CHARACTER NAME: Rachel Elizabeth Dare
CANON: Percy Jackson
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1
BOON REQUEST:
- some kind of magical power that relates to her artsyfartsy side. like, draw a THING and then pull that THING off the page. I don't think she'd ever draw a living animal, so it could just be for inanimate objects. maybe food? eh.
OR!
- not a LITERAL gold bow, but maybe a gold-colored bow + arrow/quiver set. Rachel is learning how to shoot, and she'd like a bow of her own. and I think gold would be cool because of her association with Apollo, yusyus! and in PJO, Percy's sword can turn into a pen for easy carrying purposes, and appears back in his pocket as said pen even if he drops it or whatever, so it'd be rad if the quiver ..magically reloaded with new arrows after some time, or something? I know Drabworld magic =/= PJO Greek magic, but, yeah. she'd totally ramble on about a pimped out bow/arrow set up, hahaha.

POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS:
the "or" is mostly because I don't know if it would be too powerful to have the first "magic art" option include "and now I can pull magical weapons off the page!". but if that'd be cool to have her do ( within reason, I wouldn't have her be like "THIS IS A MAGICAL BOW THAT CAN KILL LITERALLY ANYTHING!!" and then give out magical "KILL EVERYTHING!" weapons to all her friends. honestly they'd mostly be based off of the magic weapons introduced within the PJO universe ), then just the drawing power would be awesome.

CHARACTER NAME: Teresa
CANON: The Maze Runner
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): n/a - I'm still working on her log with Thomas about getting her over to the Unseelie side, but she's going to find an invisibility feather along the way! eta: link 1!
BOON REQUEST:
- her telepathy link! in canon she could brain-talk with a few of the characters thanks to a totally creepy mindcontrol chip in her brain, but that's been deactivated. so. she'd want that back, for sure. especially cause Tom can talk in her brain again, she'd probably jump at the chance to get it back.

POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS:
UHHH. I don't think she'd think to ask for anything else. but randomize me, if that's not doable!

[gracedprince]

CHARACTER NAME: Celebrían
CANON: Tolkien
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1
BOON REQUEST: "I do not know what to ask for but something of use for myself and my mother."
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Have fun?

CHARACTER NAME: Greening Grandemalion
CANON: Seven Kingdoms
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1
BOON REQUEST: Po really has nothing he can think to ask for. He could ask for his signet ring back (with bonus magic or something) but he wouldn't ask because he would think it could be taken from Katsa. And he doesn't want that. So wildcard!
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Anything goes.

[chaoticwhimsy]

CHARACTER NAME: Lumina
CANON: Final Fantasy XIII: Lightning Returns
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 Link #2
BOON REQUEST: Lumina writes 'How come there aren't any chocobos here? They're much better than horses!' because she can't think of anything to ask for and she has been getting jealous of everyone's horses.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Lumina doesn't really know she wants a chocobo, but it would be fun if she got one! Or some odd variation of it, like receiving chocobo eggs, or breeding chocobos, or a baby chocobo, or a big chocobo and chocobo eggs or...something chocobo related. Preferably a black chocobo if any chocobos are found! If not, then randomization is fine!

Oh my god I said chocobo way too many times.

CHARACTER NAME: Ben Hawkins
CANON: Carnivàle
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1
BOON REQUEST: "I don't care." Seriously, he doesn't. Which is probably why he's taken THIS LONG to even respond to boons.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: wildcard, yo. as long as it's nothing too extreme c: it would be fun if he could get some sort of animal he could ride around for travel since cars aren't a thing here, or something that has to do with his powers, even? idk i'm pretty much open to anything for him.

[allures]

CHARACTER NAME: Effy Stonem
CANON: Skins
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1
BOON REQUEST: Drugs. Or, something related to drugs lmao in canon, she dealt weed around and if there's some sort of weird fairy drug that makes you feel loopy like, she'd probably settle with that too.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: OR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. if weed isn't cool here which is totally understandable, feel free to give her something else! wildcard me if so!

[vrykolakas]

CHARACTER NAME: The Brucolac.
CANON: The Scar.
FACTION: Unseelie.
RELEVANT THREAD(S): unfinished he's gonna give it back once he has opposable thumbs again.
BOON REQUEST: Terrible handwriting, erratic punctuation, but the message is just about decodable as: "1 chest of gold 3 hands length x 3hl x 3hl"
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: HE MEANS HUMAN-ish HANDS don't give him that imp hand shit (but you possibly could). also, a chest literally made of gold (containing anything you like, including a note reading "haha sucker") is not what he wants, but I am happy to accept it, and he will have to grudgingly admit that he walked right into that one. OR: wildcard me, I will accept anything.

[fairyfoes]

BOON APPROVED

He'll get the chest, filled with gold coins! ... but it will actually be made of layers of bound-together corpse hands.

Had to make sure it was to scale!

[fairyfoes]

BOON APPROVED

He can now use water-powers... but only in daylight!

[parallels]

CHARACTER NAME: Clara Oswald
CANON: Doctor Who
FACTION: Seelee
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 Work in progress!
BOON REQUEST: Maybe a baby dragon or some kind of animal that she could raise and look after. She is a teacher after all. Otherwise. SOME KIND OF MAGIC. Like light magic would be awesome. For fighting.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Anything goes!

[fairyfoes]

BOON APPROVED

Lumina will get a handsome black chocobo! Her squadron of imps will begin to fashion it silver war-talons to wear on its feet for kicking, and a silver beak guard.

[scinlae]

CHARACTER NAME: Morgana Pendragon
CANON: BBC Merlin
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 ─ found by her raven because MAN THEY ARE SHINY, instantly regretted when said bird began turning invisible every time it crows.
BOON REQUEST: She will write My brother's sword only to cross it out, instead she will request some new dresses in the same vein as the ones she used to own in Camelot. Or whatever their majesties desire to grant her.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Surprises are always fun!

[fairyfoes]

BOON APPROVED

Plays and re-enactments are quite the affair in the drabwurld, what with magic to up the ante for the crowd experience! He'll receive tickets for the front-half orchestra seats to a grand production of 'Of Gold and Lead', a rousing (and lengthy) play about the consequences of mingling politics and love. The show is in Parrais.

[fairyfoes]

BOON APPROVED

Saralegui will be gifted his body weight in gold coins, which the imps will try to stack in a bust of his likeness in his chambers.

[enthraller]

bless u oh my god I might die

[masterofmystery]

CHARACTER NAME: Ron Weasley
CANON: Harry Potter
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 Link #2
BOON REQUEST: OKAY I HAVE ACTUAL IDEAS NOW. Okay, so Ron still doesn't want anything for himself or wants anything... But since he does want to protect his friends and birthday things! :V What he'd ask for is "Something that will make Hermione happy." The best idea we've come to is a puppy!
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: A wildcard of the above if need be! Essentially, he'd really just want something that Hermione could enjoy that he'd approve of enjoying. Something that will make her laugh, laughing's good. It can be silly or whatever else We joked about a Fluffy so literally all is good

[choreographics]

Thank you! Let me know if it's not okay to assume that he can draw said-water out of thin air + obtain the two specific powers he requested in his initial request, now (obviously the amount will be more the more he practices) o/

[scramasax]

CHARACTER NAME: Anthony
CANON: Eternal Darkness
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): A thread with John and a To-Whom-It-May-Concern! Exactly how far he might have gotten is still in the process of being determined.
BOON REQUEST: He's going to only humbly request picking up on the subject of his audience with Solais when the next royal audience is held - namely the Drabwurld's spoken-of fading light, the consequences or what could reverse it, and the mention of Ancients.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: If that does not count as a request I am very for wildcarding and/or leaving that be.

[ziggyzoggy]

CHARACTER NAME: Vol'jin
CANON: Warcraft
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 ...and he's eventually going to find one while on "holiday," but I have yet to get to that bit (so I'm not linking it).
BOON REQUEST: "If you want me to be effective, you will want me mounted."

So, something that isn't a horse, or horse-like. ...Preferably some kind of predator.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Wildcard, I guess. There's not a whole lot he'd ask for that he would be allowed to ask for/the monarchs would/could provide. And I have almost no idea what to ask for, so..../shrug!

[chaoticwhimsy]

Haha, that's perfect!
