In Ironsworn it's a bit tough to regain spirit. The best way to do it is with a sojourn. But for that you need to spend time in a community. Not always easy while on the road.
Other ways are make camp or test a bond. But they only give you +1 each.

In Starforged, they introduced this new move. It's basically the same as the heal and resupply moves (+2 on a strong hit) but for spirit.
I suggest we make use of this one too.

You read my mind. I was looking through the core moves recently, but as you say, regaining spirit ain't easy.

I agree that using this move will make things more balanced.

In addition, I was thinking of making a custom Asset that mitigates spirit loss. It fits Etta, as she wants to be fierce and strong-willed.

I'm all for it! :)
We can do a sort of milestone leveling instead of XP-based if we want to. Or would you be replacing one of your current 3 assets?

I'll wait until we're done with this quest, which will put us at 5 XP. Enough to get a new asset, then upgrade an asset, if we so choose.

I'm not really hankering to level up more quickly. Unlike a system like D&D, in Ironsworn it almost seems like an afterthought.

But if you want to see your XP coffers fill up sooner, we can brainstorm ideas. I think we discussed some possibilities earlier.

That works for me. No need to change anything.

Nice post, I like the lore you introduced with the monks and Steelharbor :)

I might not be able to post until Monday. If I find the time I will but I'll be out of town for a few days.

Thanks! Tried to tie everything together. Give you something to chew on.

OK, have fun! I don't know how you can survive without RP for that long, but anyway....🤣
