Ignore target spell (When you ignore a spell, you pretend that it was never cast, and therefore it didn't resolve. If the spell would cause a permanent you control to change control, leave the battlefield or etc, do not do that. If the spell caused a creature to enter the battlefield, ignore the presence of the creature. As long as you are ignoring the creature, do not assign blockers to it, nor take damage from it, nor acknowledge it blocking any of your creatures. If you at any point stop ignoring the spell or its repercussions, and an opponent catches you, you lose).

Whenever an opponent plays a card that causes them to search their library, you may split their library up into a number of stacks equal to the number of quest counters on ~ plus one. Their search is limited to one stack of their choosing. If they fail their search, then you may draw a card. Once the search is completed, recombine and shuffle their library.

Path of Misfortune enters the battlefield with X quest counters on it.
If an a spell or ability an opponent controls would cause that player to search their library, you may instead separate that library into a number of piles equal to 1 plus the number of quest counters on Path of Misfortune. That player chooses one of those piles and searches that pile. If that player finds no cards during that search, you may draw a card.

[ changed for templating ]
[ edit: removed old copy of the ability XD ]

Neat effect.
* You want a replacement effect ("would"/"instead"), not a triggered ability ("whenever"), since triggered abilities stack and resolve after the event that triggers them.
* Other cards (like Fact or Fiction) have had a player "separate" a group of cards into "piles" before, so that's probably the templating you want for that.
* "Failing" a search isn't a defined thing. The closest you can get is (probably) finding no cards, though that wording will cause the card draw if they were searching for zero cards.
* You don't need to specify the recombining, since separating cards into piles doesn't change what game zone those cards are in, and you don't need to specify the shuffle, since you can just not replace the shuffle (just the search).

Problem:
The rules don't currently support separating cards into piles that you can't look at, so as worded, the card doesn't work. You'd need to specify whether you want the player doing the separating to look at the cards first, or whether you want the contents of the piles (but (maybe) not the number of cards in them) to be random.
