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: Javik
CANON: Mass Effect
FACTION: Unseelie
RELEVANT THREAD(S): Link #1 Link #2 both ongoing
NUMBER OF HEALED FAIRIES/SLAIN IMPS: Like a million Zero healed and probably dozens killed. He was hunting them because they were fun to shoot, so yeah, lots.
LOCATION OF HEALED FAIRIES/SLAIN IMPS: All over the Station!
BOON REQUEST: He's going to ask for a 'gun that will work outside the Station.' This could be a crappy pistol with no ammo or bow and arrow. He'll be mad about it no matter what, so hit me.
POSSIBLE ALTERATIONS: A decent sword! Technically there isn't canon to support it, but one can assume protheans used swords at one point in their ancient history, so one of those would be ideal. (I may ask for this later if the alteration isn't used!)

BOON APPROVED

Javik will receive a brand new crossbow carved from a tree inside the Station. The bark of this will have grown fortified on fairy magic and it will fire rapidly once its user is fully trained in its use. It will never run out of arrows and magically replenish itself after every shot.

He will also receive a fancy brand new long-sword, complete with sheath and harness to wear on his back.

He's gonna hate the crossbow until he realizes how badass it is. Thank you!

Also, is the long sword from the Drabwurld? With his sensory ability, he's going to know where it's from and if anyone else has ever used it before. Unless that can be magicked away, because magic.

[fairyfoes]

The sword will be native to the Drabwurld, yep! If he gets touchy-feely with it, it will give off a sense of harmony when paired with him, created by the smiths of his court and never before used.

Awesome, thank you!
