Custom move for a fae infested forest.
When you walk under the full moon in The Urwood, and think of your heart’s desire Roll +CHA…
On a 10+ If your heart’s desire is in The Urwood, you find where. If not you will know the quickest way to it.
On a 7-9 pick one:
– You receive a vision of The Urwood deems urgent
– You must face a trial before you get what you seek
– The denizens of the Urwood make you an offer
On a miss: Who are you to petition the Urwood? Come back when you’ve proven yourself.
Is there a hard move clause with that miss? As it reads, it does really push the fiction forward. It’s just a closed door.
Maybe the forest uses your Heart’s Desire to deceive/trick you?
I find telling a player they must “prove themselves” to get something usually makes them do something far more dangerous than anything I might specifically give them to do. It also follows with the co-operative fiction aspect of the game for them to find a way to prove themselves.
It’s essentially the unwelcome truth that they have been found wanting.
Also you can always just make them fight a dangerous creature and wait a month to ask again. Seems hard enough to me.
It’s really just a matter of my personal expectations. When I envision walking in a fae infested forest at night, I picture a desperate, hazardous move for someone with no better choice. More of a Charisma based Defy Danger.
That said, I don’t know how that forest works in your fiction.
