STARTING MOVE
Wild Ways: You can communicate with Beasts of
your kind. Choose one: armor +1, harm +1, AP
harm, leaping, sprinting, special sense to
represent your nature. You start with a Den.
PLUS TWO MORE MOVES
At most one can come from your chosen Season.
(see Season moves)
Against the Wall: When you are cornered by your
enemies, roll +Wild. On a hit, trade harm with your
enemies as if you were a small group (3-harm 1-
armor) instead of a single person. On a 10+, pick
2. On a 7-9, pick 1.
• You inflict terrible harm
• You suffer little harm
• You create an opportunity
• You don’t mark Clarity
Airborn: You can move slowly through the air,
lifted by your will. If there are winds present, you
can use those to bolster your speed. You can only
carry a little with you as you do this.
Becomes the Hunter: When you openly present
yourself to agent(s) hunting you, roll +Wild. On a
hit, they choose one. On a 10+, take armor+1 vs
them for the scene. On a miss, they reveal that
you’ve sprung a trap.
• They scatter or flee before you
• They throw down their weapons and surrender
• They attack you, ignoring your allies
Comes with the Territory: If you’re actively
patrolling your territory at the start of the session,
roll +Wild. On a 10+, your territory is secure and
trouble is at a minimum; take +1 ongoing to
hitting the streets in your territory. On a 7-9, one
of your troubles surfaces (your choice), but things
are mostly stable. On a miss, or if you aren’t
attending to your territory, things go south and
your troubles are fast and furious.
Greater Den: You have a safe place, secure from
outside dangers. It has emergency rations, a
hidden entrances, and an escape vector. Choose
two of the following: enhanced defenses, gate to
the Hedge, collapsible, well hidden, warning
signal. Well stocked, comfortable, large.
In the Trees: When you try to disappear in a
crowd, roll +Wyrd. On a 10+, you vanish into the
crowd without a trace; take advantage if you make
use of your concealment. On a 7-9, you are silent
and invisible, but your deception is fragile and
incomplete. On a miss, you’re clearly the wolf.
Even the crowd knows it.
Loyalty: Your motley always starts with an extra
Trust. This increases the Motley’s maximum Trust.
Show the Beast: When you frighten or cow others
with your monstrous form, roll +Wild. On a hit,
they're thrown off and make themselves
vulnerable or flee. On a 10+, choose one. On a 7-
9, choose two.
• You frighten others you hadn't intended to
• You hurt someone or break something you
shouldn’t have
• You feel like more of a monster afterward; mark a
condition (GM’s choice)
On a miss, they react with violence, hatred, and
paranoia, and you suffer the brunt of it.
Slayer: When you Stay Strong while on a hunt, roll
+Wild instead of Wyrd.
Sniffer: When you keep an eye out for trouble, roll
+Wild. On a 10+, hold 3. On a 7-9, hold 1. While
you’re there, spend your hold to ask the MC
questions, 1 for 1:
• What’s my best way in/out?
• Who or what here is not what they seem?
• What happened here recently?
• What here is the greatest danger to me?
• Whose turf is this?
On a miss, you find yourself in over your head. The
MC will tell you why this is a bad spot.
Steadfast: Mark Clarity to gain a 10+ result on a
Stay Strong roll against mental challenges.
Transformation: You may change into your animal
form. Roll +Wyrd. On a hit, no one can tell that
there’s anything unnatural about you. On a 7-9
you have some unusual detail that sets you apart
from other animals. On a miss, your
transformation leaves you in a vulnerable position
(spotted, trapped, unable to change back).
Waterborn: You can breathe underwater and move
unhindered while submerged.
CLARITY MOVES
Clarity Trigger: When you value loyalty over all
other considerations, mark clarity.
Destroyer: When you Unleash an Attack, mark
Clarity to deal additional Harm = the # of
conditions you have marked
Force of Nature: You get +1 Wild (max +4). When
you roll a 12+ with Wild, mark Clarity.
Predator’s Gaze: Mark Clarity to lock eyes with
someone and force them to be still for as long as
you maintain the gaze.

STARTING MOVE
Know the Shadows: When you scope out a person
or place, roll + Wyrd. On a 10+, ask two. On a 7-9,
ask one.
• What’s my best way in/out?
• What happened here recently?
• What here is worth grabbing?
• Who or what here is not what they seem?
• Whose place is this?
On a miss, you find yourself in over your head. The
GM will tell you why this is a bad spot.
PLUS TWO MORE MOVES
At most one can come from your chosen Season
(see Season moves).
Cowardly: When you abandon someone to Escape
a situation, roll +Heart instead of Wild.
Don’t Look at Me: When you Manipulate someone,
roll +Wyrd instead of Heart.
Ghost Talk: You can speak with spirits in a place,
using them to Read a Sitch or provide general info.
On a hit, they're willing to speak. On a 7-9 you owe
them a debt. On a miss, they become angry &
vengeful.
Haunt the Darkness: When you terrorize someone
from the shadows, roll +Wyrd. On a hit, they are
frightened, intimidated, or unnerved. On a 10+,
pick 2. On a 7-9, pick 1.
• You create an opportunity
• You inflict harm (ap)
• You remain in shadows
• You don’t mark Clarity
Invocation: You may Cash in a Debt with someone
to appear in their presence. Others may Cash in a
Debt with you to have you appear as well.
Lore: When you encounter a new type of
supernatural creature, roll +Heart. On a hit, the
MC will tell you a bit about it and how it can be
killed. On a 10+, ask the MC a follow-up question;
they will answer it honestly. On a miss, you
misread the creature; the MC tells you how.
Mimic: You can appear to be someone you're met
and interacted with. Roll +Heart. On a 10+ you're
able to pass for a short time with those who know
the person and long with passing acquaintances.
On a 7-9, your guise will not stand up to close
inspection, but will pass for a time with those who
know your subject slightly.
One with the Dark: So long as there are shadows
and concealment, you may attempt to become
invisible and undetectable for a scene. Roll +Wyrd.
On a hit, no one can see or interact with you until
you decide they can. You can break this by choice
or attacking. On a 7-9 you remain hidden but
either leave some trace of yourself behind or alert
someone in the scene before you interact with
them. On a miss, your attempt fails and leaves you
vulnerable.
Panic Room: You have a secure location that you
can hole up in. Detail it and choose 3: High-tech
surveillance; a mystical prison; Fortified walls/
windows/ doors; a week’s worth of food and
water; explosives set to blow the place.
Sandman: You may keep an unaware or sleeping
subject in that state so long as you concentrate
and can see them.
Scuttle: So long as there are shadows and
concealment, you're able to cling to surfaces and
move along them at a walking pace. You can even
climb ceilings.
Skim the Surface: When you touch someone, you
can read their surface thoughts. Roll +Wyrd. On a
10+, ask 3. On a 7–9, ask 1:
• What is your character thinking about right now?
• Who are you protecting?
• Why are you keeping secrets?
• What is your character’s hidden pain?
On a miss, you inflict 1-harm (ap) on them and
yourself

victimization and do nothing, mark clarity.
I Know You: Mark Clarity and speak the true name

STARTING MOVE
Center of Attention: So long as you continue your
interaction with someone, you keep their attention,
potentially distracting them from other business.
You may draw them off to a private location. This
effect costs a Clarity if dealing with non-mundane.
In either case, the target must take a Debt or mark
two conditions to extricate themselves. Doesn’t
work in charged situations. Loud events will
disrupt this effect.
PLUS TWO MORE MOVES
At most one can come from your chosen Season
(see Season Moves).
Baleful: You may end an attack or interaction with
a non-supernatural group or gang by revealing
your baleful visage. Mark Clarity. The group will
hesitate and possibly fall back. At the very least
they cannot continue their current course of
action.
Confession: When you convince someone to be
honest with you about their problems, roll +Wyrd.
On a hit, you may take one Debt they owe (related
to the problem) as your own if you promise to see
it through. On a 10+, mark two XP and clear a
condition when you honor the Debt. On a miss,
their problems confuse and perplex you; you owe
them a Debt for trying to get mixed up in their
business.
Courtier: When you Read a Sitch on a Courtly or
large social situation, always gain +1 Hold.
Glamours: You create illusions to fool the senses.
These are more complex and involved than the
minor illusions others can perform.
Irresistible: When you Persuade an NPC using
promises or seduction, treat a 7-9 as a 10+ result.
On a miss, your machinations succeed as though
you rolled a 7-9, but attract the attention of a rival
or enemy.
Observant: When you Put a Face to a Name with
someone politically important (your call), roll
+Mind instead of Season. On a hit, you know a
dangerous secret about them or their political
machinations. On a 10+, you know how to
leverage that information; take a Debt on them as
well. On a miss, your snooping has already landed
you in hot water with your target; they know
you’ve been looking into their business.
Put Out the Word: When you Cash in a Debt with
someone in your web (see below), add this option
to the list: put out the word with their Season that
you want something. You get Advantage and +1 to

surface, you may Read a Sitch on a location in the
past. The object you're using to scry must have
been present at that time.

matter what they rolled and you mark a condition
of their choice.
True Friends: When you Cash in a Debt with an
NPC, add this option to the list: Back you up in a
dangerous situation
Wary: You always have an opening to Escape. You

bring someone with you. On a miss, you attract
dangerous attention.
Wheels with Wheels: When someone comes to
you to ask for a favor, look for advice/info, or
threaten your interests, they enter your web and
owe you a Debt. When someone is in your web,
you gain the following when dealing with them:
• Gain Advantage to Support
• Add this question to Pierce the Mask: “What are
your character’s wants right now?”
At the start of a session, choose someone in your
web and learn a secret about them that they’d
rather keep buried. They leave your web only
when they no longer owe you a Debt.
Won’t Be Ignored: When you Manipulate
someone, mark Clarity to treat your roll as a 10+
without rolling.
CLARITY MOVES

the path of danger, mark clarity.

Practiced Perfection: You have a profession. When
you carry out those tasks, you do so with skill,

project's done...
• without tools or resources
• in a fraction of the time; secretly
• with unearthly beauty
• in a strange manner
• in perfect secrecy
• with a hidden trick
On a 7-9, there's a hidden flaw, additional cost, or
unwanted attention called.
PLUS TWO MORE MOVES
At most one can come from your chosen Season
(see Season Moves).
Counselor: When you Support someone, you may
clear two conditions, including their Key condition.
Foretellings: At the beginning of the session, roll
+Wyrd. On a 10+, hold 2. On a 7-9, hold 1. During

impending disaster. On a miss, you foresee the
death of someone important to you and take -1 to
all rolls to prevent it.
Hands of the Clock: You may rewind or fast
forward time on a machine or object. Roll +Wyrd.
On a 10+ you return it to pristine condition or
destroy its function. On a 7-9 the effect’s

miss, the forces of time turn back on you.
Gun to a Knife Fight: When you Unleash an Attack
on someone by seriously escalating the conflict,
roll +Mind instead of Wild.
Hedge Master: When you go Into the Hedge, you
always roll with Advantage. You may roll for others

instead of +Heart. If someone owes you 2+ Debts

location for the resources or tools needed to
destroy it, roll +Mind. On a hit, you find whatever
you need to bring the place down around you. On
a 10+, everything is already arrayed to your liking;
all you have to do is light the fuse. On a miss, your
search leaves you or an ally vulnerable or exposed
to your enemies.
Machinist: When you commune with a machine,
roll +Wyrd. On a 10+, ask 2. On a 7-9, ask 1.
• What secrets are hidden here, friend?

On a miss, the machine betrays you to your
enemies, in whatever way it can.

you may opt to not have the blow land.
Soldier: You always have a weapon on you, no
matter how well you’re searched.
The Best Laid Plans: When you work out a plan
with someone, roll +Mind. On a 10+, hold 3. On a

regardless of distance, while the plan is being
carried out to:

• Dismiss all harm from a single attack
• Ensure your people have the exact gear they
need on hand
On a miss, hold 1, but your plan falls apart at the
worst possible moment.
Stitchwork: Your touch heals Wounds. You cannot
use this power on yourself.
Too Old for this Shit!: When you get caught up in a
fight you tried to prevent, gain armor+1 and take

(a failed social test). On a hit, you reduce the effect from the MC Hard Move
to a Soft One. Depending on the situation, a 10+ may skip over it completely.
Servant of the Antler Crown: You’re a member of the Court of Desire with a
significant position. Once per session you may call on debt with a lesser
member of the Court. Abuse of this will be noted and you may be called upon

one additional question, even on a miss.

Farmer, Grave-Tender, Historian, Bounty-Hunter, Gaoler, Sorcerer,

and alter it. Mark Clarity and choose two from the list: deepen it, lessen it,
bring it to the center, shift its nature, shift its target, remove it for a time.
Mantle of Fates (Waning): Mark Clarity when face to face with someone to
pronounce a curse on them. Roll with Wyrd. On a 10+, choose 2. On a 7-9,

hour’s worth. You can mark Clarity to put alternate memories in their place.
You Don’t Scare Me: You have a mortal confidante who believes in your
cause. When you go to your mortal confidante for solace, comfort, or
protection, roll with Wyrd. On a hit, they tend to your wounds and hide you
from your enemies; clear Harm. On a 10+, they have been keeping their eyes
and ears open for you; they tell you about an opportunity you can use against
your enemies. On a miss, your condition worries them; they secretly contact
someone they think can help you or reveal your connection to the Court. Note
that this move goes against the secrecy of the Winter Court.
Bearer of The Silent Arrow: You’re a member of the Court of Sorrow with a
significant position. Once per session you may call on debt with a lesser
Court member. Abuse of this will be noted; you may be called upon for more

FREEHOLD MOVES
GOBLIN MARKET
When you search a Goblin Market for something
you want, roll. On a hit, you find it but it has a
price and something problematic about it. On a 7-
9, choose one: the price is very high, the catch is
very potent, or it draws down major heat.
HARVEST GLAMOUR
When you go to Harvest glamour, say what the
source is like and Roll +Your Own Season. On a hit,
you clear the condition. On a 7-9, you’ve
exhausted that source. You will have to Hit the
Streets or discover in play another source if you
need to clear that condition again. You may not
use Glamour to clear your Key Condition.
HIT THE STREETS
When you hit the streets to get what you need,
name who you’re going to and roll with their
Season. On a hit, they’re available and have the
stuff. On a 7-9, choose 1:
• Whoever you’re going to is juggling their own
problems
• Whatever you need is more costly than
anticipated
INTO THE HEDGE
When you enter the Hedge for something, Roll
+Wyrd. On a hit, pick one of the following:
• Arrive where you want.
• Evade Pursuit
• Find What You Want
• Learn Something about the World
On a 10+, pick one of the following. On a 7-9, pick
one and the MC chooses one.
• It takes significantly more time.
• You draw attention.
• You take Harm
• You mark Clarity
• You lose something important
• You owe a debt
PUT A FACE TO A NAME
When you put a face to a name or vice versa, roll
with their Season. On a hit, you know their
reputation; the GM tells you what most people
know about them. On a 10+, you’ve dealt with
them before; learn something interesting and
useful about them or they owe you a Debt. On a
miss, you don’t know them or you owe them; the
MC will tell you which.
DEBT MOVES
DO SOMEONE A FAVOR
When you offer to do someone a favor and they
accept, they owe you a Debt.
CASH IN A DEBT
When you cash in a debt, remind your debtor why
they owe you in order to...make an NPC:
• Answer a question honestly about their Season
• Introduce you to powerful Season member
• Give you a worthy and useful gift without cost
• Erase a Debt they hold on someone
• Give you a Debt they have on someone else
• Give you Advantage and +1 to Persuade them
(choose before rolling)
…make a PC:
• Do you a favor at moderate cost
• Lend a hand to your efforts
• Get in the way of someone else
• Answer a question honestly
• Erase a Debt they hold on someone
• Give you a Debt they hold on someone else
REFUSE TO HONOR A DEBT
When you refuse to honor a debt, roll +Heart. On a
hit, you weasel out of the current deal, but still
owe the Debt. On a 7-9, you choose 1:
• You owe them an additional Debt
• You lose face with their Season
• You mark Clarity
• You’re considered an Oathbreaker.
On a miss, you can’t avoid the noose. You either
honor your Debt or face the consequences: they
pick two from the list above or force you to lose all
the Debts owed to you.
DROP SOMEONE’S NAME
When you drop the name of someone who owes
you a Debt, roll with their Season. On a hit, their
name carries weight and gives you an opening or
opportunity. On a 10+, you keep the Debt and
mark their Season. On 7-9, you have to cash in the
Debt. On a miss, erase the Debt and brace
yourself.
