Downtimes are Just Times When You're Down is a narrative- and community-focused storytelling game about adventurers, bounty hunters, heroes or ne'er-do-wells in the time in between their missions, heists or epic quests.

This game is a GM-less, roleplaying-focused game designed to be (though not required to be) run between sessions of other games, with the party retiring to a community home base. This game is about how these characters contribute to their home communities; whether they leave it better or worse, and how the community reacts to their presence.

Regardless of your class or playbook in the story you play this game around,  there are non-traditional playbooks to explore different aspects of your character when they're off the clock. When the Rogue is retiring home, are they a Gossip? A Crofter, tending a homestead? A Madcap, unable to switch off?

Now there's extra playbooks available from friend Virdine!

I played Theora, a Courier possessed by the Spirit of the Post, in a brief game in subterranean community with bioluminescent mushrooms. It was a lovely game.
