[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 8395770, member: 12731"] One thing I would absolutely allow is for players to purchase the power to turn the downtime result into the next adventure. For instance, Korgoth successfully finishes the latest scenario. Now he rolls 16 on whatever between-stories table you use and gets the result [INDENT]"You hook up with what you believe is a local girl that turns out to be the princess slumming it anonymously. You were caught [I]in flagrante[/I] by her father the King and had to leave everything and escape the city. You have just reached the next city over, without knowing the princess is searching for the father of her unborn child..."[/INDENT] Korgoth spends X gold to say "Actually that sounds great and I want that story to be the next adventure". The GM goes "okay, you meet up at the Hornless Unicorn as usual when you spot a beautiful girl..." (It goes without saying the ending is now not predetermined). If more than one player gets a result they want to experience interactively (perhaps in order to get a different outcome) the GM simply has them outbid each other :devilish: [/QUOTE]
