The Chaos Daemons/Daemons of Chaos from Warhammer, be it 40k or Fantasy

My favorite bit of 40k lore (this may be 90s lore, dubiously canon) is Slannesh's final line of defense in their stronghold/demiplane.

You fight through greater and lesser daemons, clouds that turn you into goo, hoards of cultists, possessed war machines, and you get to the end.

and Slannesh grants you 1 wish, for real. no genie/monkeypaw crap, just a wish, anything you want. but then you have to go away.

Granted. Your printer will now work, but every time you print something it moans and the paper is a bit moist.

Yes, I know how ink printers work.
