Character Advancement

Advancing Your Character

Upon getting enough experience to increase your level (or when the GM declares that you gained a level), you must spend a number of days equal to your new level to finalize your training before actually gaining your level. Before you can start this training period, you must have spent at least a number of weeks equal to your new level at your current level, which represents the amount of time spent learning and practicing new abilities and skills.
