Take Down Time
Time Required: 24 hours (Special)
Skill: None
Requires: You must be in a friendly community
The party spends a day in a friendly community. Each party member can spend up to twelve hours taking care of any personal business that they might have to accomplish.
During the course of the day, each party member must consume a day's food. This can be from their personal ration supply, or they may spend 3 copper pennies to purchase a meal. (Aruna must pay 4 copper pennies; Wyrmkind must pay 5 copper pennies.) A character who does not eat a meal gains a level of the Hungry condition.
In addition, each party member must have access to shelter. If they are in a community in which they own property, their shelter requirements are met. If not, they will need to rent rooms. The cost for this is three copper pennies per day per character. However, any character with Noble Prestige must add that Prestige to the cost, in copper pennies, of their shelter!
At the start of their Down Time, each member of the party will gain Milestones equal to the party's current Victories, and the party's Victories are reset to zero.
At the end of their Down Time, each character regains a number of recoveries equal to their Body attribute, or one recovery, whichever is greater. They will also recover an equal number of hit points of damage.
Characters in the party can spend their twelve personal hours to do whatever they wish. Popular choices include:
- Gather Information (if in a friendly community);
