Vessel, their Instincts and Debts.
I recently started a game and one of the PCs is a cool flesh golem Vessel.
We discussed that all PCs know his instincts and some powerful NPCs might know at least one of his instincts.
I wonder if person using Vessel instincts should owe Vessel a debt in few cases:
1. If Vessel does what he is told without questioning it?
2. If Vessel resists and fails?
I’d like to avoid situation where player feel ripped off from having a debt for doing stuff, but he is a construct made to serve.
IMO Vessel can demand a debt for doing something for someone after a successful resist.
How do you handle 7-9 on Vessel resistance to follow instincts?
So far I had one such situation and I gave Vessel a choice to flee the scene or stay and cave in.
Which MC moves do you think fit nicely here to this situation?

I’ve had a vessel in my US game for a bit now. I think the most memorable attempt to resist instincts was when a powerful person asked him a question and he resisted. The 7-9 result was: you don’t have to answer his questions–but you don’t get to either. Add “don’t answer questions” as a temporary instinct.
