Downtime Activities

When your character is not on an adventure, they can spend their days engaging in various activities. Downtime can only be taken in a safe area and is interrupted if the area becomes unsafe during the downtime period. A downtime must at least last a minimum of two days, where a character gets a choice of one downtime activity. One additional choice of downtime activity is granted for every additional two days. These activities can be done alone, or with one or multiple other individuals or creatures. When your character engages in the same downtime activity repeatedly between adventures, they become weary of the monotony and repetition, resulting in gaining one point of exhaustion each time an activity is repeated.   There are a total of fifteen downtime activities your character may choose depending on location and context:

• Leveling Up - Honing your abilities through training, meditation, education, and research, in accordance with the class you have chosen or class you wish to learn
