Glorified Mercenaries (LWRPG) (Still a thing and unsure about playerlist)

And will the players be able to work for particular boons? I really am concerned about these boons. Frankly, they seem pretty broken to me. It seems to boil down to "Character advancement takes the form of the GM handing out +1s to skills according to his whim."

I would definitely say that pretty much all permanent boons would either be entirely or partially up to the player(s) receiving them.
