[QUOTE="Merkuri, post: 3293641, member: 41321"] I dunno, I feel like having them shift every time they sleep gives them more of a feel of oh-my-god-what's-happening-to-us, at least in the beginning. I was thinking that they could learn to control it by their own sleeping patterns. If they really needed to accomplish something during one timeline quickly then they would have to fight sleeping, because as soon as they sleep they shift to the other timeline. I was pondering coming up with rules for characters falling asleep, like after a certain time of night they had to make a will save every couple hours. If they fail, they fall asleep. The DC would depend on what they were doing (fighting would have a very easy to beat DC, but riding a walking horse would have a harder DC), and the more PCs who were already asleep the harder it would be to stay awake. I suppose at one point letting them find a device to control this time shifting would make things easier for the PCs, but it also takes some of the scariness and urgency out of it. [/QUOTE]
