I believe your system has merit as presented and had the idea that we might generate further insights by inverting it. (As a thought experiment, not a critique.)Story Points (SP)Each time you finish a rest, you gain short or long rest story points (SSP and LSP). While you have story points any abilities you have that replenish at the finish of a rest of that kind, instead don't replenish. You reduce your number of story points through encounters.SP gained from a Short Rest8 Hour Short Rest - 1 SSP1 Hour Short Rest - 3 SSP5 Minute Short Rest - 6 SSPSP gained from a Long Rest1 Week Long Rest - 3 LSP8 Hour Long Rest - 9 LSP1 Hour Long Rest - 18 LSPReducing SPSP are reduced by resolving encounters. At the end of an encounter, subtract SP of both kinds according to the table below.Medium Encounter - subtract 1 SSP and 1 LSPHard Encounter - subtract 2 SSP and 2 LSPDeadly Encounter - subtract 3 SSP and 3 LSPIt seems kind of interesting to flip it on its head. Maybe it helps narrative because it becomes like a threat system? We rest, and while we rest the story gains impetus. Once we're back in action we get to work quelling the rising threat. I don't know at all if it is meaningfully different: it might be...</blockquote>
