[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 8233153, member: 52734"] Pendragon had some excellent guidelines for downtime, as it assumed the PCs were generally inactive during the winter months. A bit of dice rolling and a few minutes of interactive roleplayers could be fun, as long as no one gets too carried away. Stormonu’s Quick & Easy Downtime Chart (Interval as chosen by DM) 2D6 Roll 2 - Misfortune; make an ability save, on a failure wealth, fortune or health suffer 3-4 - Unexpected cost; pay 50% of your normal wealth gained or treat this as a roll of 2 5 Close call; you have an interesting tale of a brush with bad luck, but nothing more 6-8 - Nothing happens of note 9 - An Interesting tale; something unusual happens that gives you a good story, but nothing more 10-11 - Good luck; You have an opportunity to gain a small token of wealth or use, make an ability check to acquire it 12 - What Luck! You gain a small token of personal significance and your income increases by 25% [/QUOTE]
