The base Shadowdark rules provide two downtime activities: carousing and learning. It seems like there is room for more options. I enjoy downtime as a way for players to flesh out the personalities of their characters.
Here is a downtime option I am proposing: a side quest. This enables a character to pursue an adventure "off camera" between the main adventures that the GM narrates. The goal is to enable this with minimal time and effort required at the table so that it doesn't distract from the main storyline.
The idea is inspired by solo quests from the Pendragon RPG.
