I’m writing 20 custom moves to use with enemies and bad guys in Dungeon World and releasing 5 a week. The first five are already out at http://moves.vindexus.net/oldest and you can read my blog posts about them at http://vindexus.net/category/vin-moves/
Today’s move is Spellshifter. Blog post here: http://vindexus.net/2016/08/22/spellshifter/
Spellshifter
This enemy has the ability to morph spells cast in its presence. When this foe attempts to mutate a spell you’ve just cast roll+WIS. On a 10+, your spell has the desired effect, but it looks entirely different, describe how. On a 7-9 choose another spell you have prepared, it will be cast instead and on the same target. If you have no other spells prepared treat a 7-9 as a miss. On a 6- the GM will choose a spell from your class of your level+1 or lower.
Famous Weapon is awesome.
Famous weapon is awesome and fits in perfectly with my campaign. Yoink!
I, too, like Famous Weapon, but I expect most fighters, paladins and barbarians to miss their INT roll so I would let them choose three on a 6-…but the weapon also comes with a curse.
Oh I like it having a curse, that’s better than the current 6- result.
I applaud you for putting these on GitHub. I love the trigger for Snake’s Window.

I love the use of gitHub also – every time I see some usage like this, it reminds me I need to get off my butt and use it more than I do.
Sweet – and Github! That gives bonus geek points.
