Adventure & Downtime

Conan Adventures in an Age Undreamed Of has a strict game flow: adventure - downtime - adventure - downtime.

Your characters will have an adventure. They will gain some treasure (hopefully) and possibly get horribly hurt.

They will then have some downtime, during which they spend their treasure and heal from their injuries.

When the call to adventure gets too strong (or more commonly when the gold runs out) they will set out adventuring again.

The downtime will cover days or weeks or maybe months of time and might also cover hundreds of miles of travel. Your characters may stay together during downtime but more often will split up and go their own ways for a while.

Downtime is when XP is spent.
