Out to the Hollow Knight fandom.
If you could have any charm(s), Item(s) or Abilities in Hollow Knight, which one's would it be and why?
Me personally.
I would pick the Kingsoul charm, Weaversong, Grubsong and Sprintmaster.
Kingsoul because of infinite soul regen. Weaversong because it's my favorite charm, Grubsong because it has synergy with Weaversong and it allows me to gain soul on hit and Sprintmaster for the soul purpose of its synergy with Weaversong.
Items: King's Brand, Lumafly Lantern, Map and Quill and full Vessel Fragment upgrade.
The King's Brand mostly because it's one of my favorite item's in game and it allows access to the Abyss (Don't ask why it's my favorite, it just is).
The Lumafly Lantern, the reason is obvious.
Map and Quill, also obvious.
Full Vessel Fragment upgrade because I want to store more soul, simple as that.
Abilities: Crystal Heart, Monarch Wings, Isma's Tear, The Awoken Dreamnail and Dreamgate.
Crystal Heart because it allows travel over long distances.
Monarch Wings because well, come on. Who wouldn't want a double jump.
Isma's Tear because acid immunity baby.
The Awoken Dreamnail and Dreamgate is pretty self-explanatory.
So, what would you chose?

I've seen the King hold a lot of funny items in randomizers, but I think this one has got to be one of my favorites.
What're you doing with that, PK? Admiring yourself, or somehow trying to pray to yourself for assistance in getting yourself out of the mess you made of your kingdom?

why so tall, hollow knight?
The extremely marked difference in height between the Hollow Knight and the other vessels is kind of fascinating in that the two most obvious potential causes for it – a) age, and b) lowkey natural variation in size in a population – can be almost immediately ruled out.
In the memory of the Abyss, the Knight – little Ghost – and the Hollow Knight are the same size. Judging by the sheer number of vessels and by the fact the Pale King would have had no reason to wait to select a vessel after they hatched, these sizes are almost certainly the ones they hatched at. Because the creation of the vessels was an experiment, the Pale King can be assumed to have controlled the variables of the vessels’ creation carefully to achieve uniformity. Little Ghost and the Hollow Knight in particular I think hatched from the same egg because the shape of their horns are so similar; I’d call them twins if I didn’t think maybe a couple more vessels hatched from that egg with them.
While we do see variation in the vessels’ height – both the Lost Kin and the Greenpath Vessel are taller than Ghost, for example – the Hollow Knight is a massive outlier. By the time Ghost meets the Hollow Knight again in the Black Egg Temple, it has grown from being the same height as Ghost to more than four times their height. Given they began so close in appearance, it beggars belief that their heights should have diverged so much more than Ghost’s and all of the other vessels as the result of natural genetic variation. Difference in age can’t be a factor because they are the same age. That leaves things like diet and environmental factors.
If the environment of the White Palace could make Higher Beings tall then the Pale King wouldn’t have such a Napoleon Complex. Diet, though, I think is probable.
Being void under carapace, it isn’t clear what, if anything, vessels have in the way of internal organs, or even if they have mouths. We never see Ghost consume anything in the game except Soul. Soul energy can be used to repair a vessel’s body much more rapidly than metabolic energy, but they still could be similar enough that Soul can fuel the growth of a vessel’s body.
If Ghost’s travels outside Hallownest were anywhere near as rough as their travels within it all their Soul energy would have been expended on healing themself. Likewise, the other vessels whose bodies we can find – having suffered danger great enough to kill them – would have been burning any extra Soul they accumulated on healing if they developed that skill.
In contrast, the Hollow Knight – the chosen Pure Vessel – was “raised and trained to prime form”. The Pale King was trying to shape it into its strongest self; feeding it a specialised diet is a logical component of such a regimen. Soul can be gained from living bugs but this, like the manipulation of Soul undertaken in the Soul Sanctum, was probably taboo. However, there is another limitless source of Soul the Hollow Knight could have had access to – the Kingsoul Charm.
The Kingsoul Charm is basically useless in-game because it regenerates Soul so slowly when there are quicker methods and because it takes up so many slots that could be used to equip other charms – it’s a lore item, not a tool. But for a person who was going about its training regimen in Hallownest unfallen rather than battling their way through its ruins, the charm could have been a practical method of, say, trying to expand its Soul capacity or ability to contain energy in general.
The Kingsoul and the Hollow Knight are the products of the same union – that of the White Lady and the Pale King. Symbolically, I think it would make sense that the Hollow Knight was given the charm to hold while it was part of the Pale Court before having it taken back when it was time to seal it in the Black Egg Temple. What I think the Pale King and White Lady’s attitudes towards their mutual offspring were should be its own post, but I would summarise it as pained and regretful. The Hollow Knight’s sealing was a kind of metaphorical death in the eyes of Hallownest and I think breaking the charm in two would have made emotional sense to its parents after sacrificing all their potential children to the plan to save their kingdom.
It might have been more practical to leave the Kingsoul in the Hollow Knight’s possession, but I don’t think either the Pale King or the White Lady were ever truly capable of being perfectly logical where their children were concerned. The Pale King seals the Abyss to avoid being reminded of the other vessels. The White Lady binds herself to be restrained from producing any more offspring; very extreme, when it seems she and the Pale King only engaged in a single fruitful union during their marriage.
(The Hollow Knight also might have spent time it wasn’t training floating in hot spring pools. However, the pink of the water could be caused by mineral traces from the same crystal veins we see in the Crystal Peak. Given those crystals and the singing within them are low key associated with the Radiance, the Pale King might have preferred the Hollow Knight stay out of the springs.)
