BOON REQUESTS

[fairyfoes]

Hey fairybros! You know what time it is? 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 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 until 24th NOVEMBER (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!

This month, everybody who defeated the dogs 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: only actual participation (not referenced participation) will warrant a boon. What about those who moved the bones? Bide your time, lads and lassies! The Black Shuck will have taken note...

So, want 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> Please make sure to link to anything that indicates your character participated in dealing with the dogs! <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! Wildcard boons will almost always be done after the boons of characters with concrete requests, and for this reason are likely to take longer.



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! Please try to think of a boon to suggest; wildcard boons will likely be saved for last.

BOON APPROVED!
He will be gifted with the costume from his days of stardom, as well as a fine printed poster!

[fairyfoes]

BOON APPROVED!
Mako will be given utter immunity to the ensorceled power of a dragon's gaze, as well as the ability to communicate with her using true telepathy.

[judicatus]

wow and I almost added "and it would be super cool if it was a black chocobo too" thank you mods!!! :D

[jaywalks]

SCORE, immunity to dragon sharingan! thanks!

(and does that mean immunity to dragon hallucinations only, or can it count for other magical persuasive eye contact...)

[fairyfoes]

(only to dragons, unfortunately!)

CHARACTER NAME: Korra
CANON: Legend of Korra
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): BONES; protecting merida (not sure if that counts, but including just in case!); fear log, ongoing!
BOON REQUEST: "A safe place in the mountains, like the air temples. And maybe my glider. ...And sea prunes."
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: like the air temples, korra eventually wants to have four areas in the mountains set up to use as safehouses and/or lookouts (in order to keep all eyes peeled in case of enemy movement), starting with a place in the north that overlooks unseelie territory. if that's too big/superflulous or if you feel like she hasn't done enough this month to be worthy of it, then her glider + some servants to help her look after her animals while she's away on trips would be awesome! or her glider + a boost to her waterbending granting her the ability to bloodbend regardless of whether the moon's full. or something that'll turn appa pocket-sized on command so that korra can take him places. or a pet lobster that tells the future, idk.

[boutant]

I want a pet lobster that tells the future...

[silvergift]

CHARACTER NAME: Celebrían
CANON: Tolkien
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1
BOON REQUEST: "I would like something, magic of a sort I suppose, that might help me next time I might encounter something that cannot be dealt with otherwise.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Hit me with whatever you've got.

CHARACTER NAME: Greening "Po" Grandemalion
CANON: Seven Kingdoms
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 Link #2
BOON REQUEST: My signet ring, if at all possible.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: This totally a boring request so feel free to play with that however you like, modly folk.

[survivra]

CHARACTER NAME: Katsa
CANON: The Seven Kingdoms
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): dealing with dogs with Thalia, Maglor and Po, and Javik (all ongoing). She has a comment about digging for bones but it didn't get threads any further than that so that's up to your judgment whether the Black Shuck accepts it c:
BOON REQUEST: Katsa's going to ask for a horse she can basically ride as fast and as long as she wants and no one will be able to rag on her for being hard on it, since she's not known for being a particularly conscientious rider toward her mounts.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: I'm hoping she can wind up with a cleg or some other method of fast mounted travel! Transportation rings are cool, too, but half the fun for her is the actual riding, so anything's good.

[digophelia]

so help you if you start lighting things on fire :(

[extramural]

only SOME things...

[digophelia]

ACCIDENTALLY USE IT AROUND ALICE AND SHE'LL FREAK OUT

[digophelia]

CHARACTER NAME: Alice Liddell
CANON: American McGee's Alice
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Post!
BOON REQUEST: Something relatively simple, Alice would like her family portrait because it's the only thing that survived the fire
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Well, unless that's too much of a stretch, then go for it! Or at the very least, a remnant of her family.

[choreographics]

CHARACTER NAME: Ryan Evans
CANON: High School Musical
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 and still ongoing
BOON REQUEST: "Strength and speed are in progress, so how about something to help with stealth?"
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Mostly suggestions rather than alterations, but since Ryan's 99% of the time wearing a hat maybe a hat that can cloak him in some sort of different disguise when he puts it on? Alternatively there is also the crown suited for a true warrior which may suffice. Please alter as you see fit!

[vanyel_ashkevron]

CHARACTER NAME: Vanyel Ashkevron
CANON: The Last Herald-Mage
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Moving Bones & Fighting Dogs
BOON REQUEST: Would it be okay if Vanyel received a bond-bird? One of the Tayledras birds would be perfect. I'd choose a White Raven for Van in particular.

Here is a little snippet about the Tayledras bond-birds: "Most bondBirds can only report very simple messages to their Bonded HawkBrothers for they have not the intelligence. Their intelligence is about that of young children, if that. Like their Bonded, the birds eventually bleach because of the strong magics of the Vale. They all usually bleach within 10 years of Bonding, even if they are not Bonded to powerful Mages. Bondbirds are noticeable from other birds because they are all about two to three times bigger than regular birds."

Since he can't have Yfandes, I thought another, smaller companion would do him good. :)

[chaoticwhimsy]

Oh man yes.

Are they any particular color or can they just be random ones? Or yellow ones!

[orcsurfing]

CHARACTER NAME: Legolas
CANON: Tolkien
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): References to the bones, dealing with puppies here... (It's on-going, they haven't got around to it yet though bc I'm slow, but the plan with the player is to have it happen within next two-three tags.)
BOON REQUEST: "A war bow to equal or surpass that of the Galadhrim that I had lost in service of the Seelie."
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: Something like the epirus bow? Or any other fancy, magical bow.

[scinlae]

CHARACTER NAME: Morgana Pendragon
CANON: BBC Merlin
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 - kills those stupid dogs ( still on-going )
BOON REQUEST: WILD CARD ME YO.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: :)

[muscovy]

CHARACTER NAME: Muscovy / Russia
CANON: Axis Powers Hetalia
FACTION: Seelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Taking out dogs and there is also this but so far it's only a thread starter
BOON REQUEST: "I want to be stronger, and a way to stop someone that I like from leaving me. And I don't want it to be cold anymore."
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: So this is obviously a threefold request that is super unspecific, so options for the actual boon:
Strength: If you want it to backfire, give him ice powers. Right now, the powers are the General's, who is an entity of his own and bound to certain months of the year; so he could receive the power to cause a snow storm or ice things over by himself, or maybe something more supernatural like turn things into ice or snow.
If you do not want it to backfire (he'd adore this), giving him some fire power or an item that has such a power would be a thing.
Keeping people: This one is a bit tricky. I do not want anything that would actually require him and the other character to be in proximity at all times, nor something that has to do with travelling. But what I could see working nicely would be a way of knowing where the people that he designates as "people that I like" are?
Warmth: This could easily be combined with the fire idea from "Strength", if he has a fire power he can start a fire easily... or it could be a stone that fills its surroundings with warmth and lets flowers spring up and stuff so them dying from the cold when he moves away will break his heart.
