2.6 Reset
At every Volaire event, there will come a time when the energy dips, the sun shifts, and the world takes a breath. This is known as the Reset.
What Is Reset?
Reset is a scheduled Out-of-Play pause that occurs roughly halfway through the event. It's when:
- Mages return to their grimoires to restudy their spells
- Warriors take time to meditate, sharpen blades, or train
- Everyone—no matter their class—takes a breather
What Do I Do During Reset?
You may use this time however you’d like Out-of-Play, but your character must be considered “resting” or “studying” for at least 20 minutes. This is a non-negotiable part of the game world and is treated as an in-universe requirement.
During Reset, you should:
- Pull your Per Day cards (spell cards, class abilities, etc.)
- Stretch your limbs and move around a bit
- Hydrate and grab a snack
- Touch base with a staff member if you need clarification, restocking, or support
This is a great opportunity to mentally regroup, plan your next moves, or check in with your fellow party members Out-of-Play.
In-Play Representation
Even though the Reset is a mechanical necessity, it is woven into the world of Volaire. When Reset begins:
- Casters may be seen in quiet study circles
- Fighters may enter silent drills or sparring meditation
- Rogues may sneak off to find a cool stone to nap against (definitely just meditating)
Think of Reset as a moment where the world breathes—and so should you.
