I recently acquired a boon on a chronicle that states that I've "earned the favor of a prominent Ivy District businesswoman." I plan on using this as an excuse to open a Concert Hall in the Ivy District to perform my Day Job in style.
I've also become acquainted with an extra planar night hag that sent a nightmarish vision to me in my sleep. Whether these boons will be for Weal or Woe remains to be seen.
I am somewhat concerned that when I play the scenario that references these boons, it may be with a different character. I'm not worried about getting some unique or powerful item (although those are welcome), I'm concerned that I'll miss some interesting role play or story threads because of chance.
How does everyone else feel about these mystery boons?

Not to imply that your situation is any less annoying, but try asking anyone here about, for instance, the Gathering an Army boons or the Recommendations and watch them shake their heads.
There's plenty of older boons snd antiboons that either never amounted to anything or were time-sensitive. E.g a pal of mine's character gained a pirate nemesis, but never saw no hide nor hair after that.

Gathering an Army will presumably come into play at the Gencon special or the Assault on the Worldwound adventure.
Ah, but the point was about the boons going to the wrong character(s).
I've gathered crusaders, barbarians and have heard about some people picking up elven commandos, but getting all of these on the same character, indeed gathering the army, might be very difficult. They are very elusive.

I'm still waiting for a chance to go to Egorian to get a cleric of Asmodeus to cast a free divination spell.
I can think of a couple of modules where a pit stop at the infernal capital would not be out of the question.
Maybe that's when we'll finally see those western Katapeshi gnolls!
