Using milestone levelingβno need to track XP from every fight or challenge.
Milestones awarded for story progress, major achievements, or overcoming key obstacles.
Creative solutions and non-violent resolutions count toward milestones.
Level-ups generally happen between sessions.
Occasionally, a mid-session level-up may occur, but only right before a scheduled break to let players update character sheets.
This keeps gameplay smooth and lets players prepare new abilities without rush.
