[QUOTE="Vexxmyst, post: 8452553, member: 7033038"] That is a great idea that I hadn't considered (despite the other minimalist sheets including it, yes); I think I'll word it as 'DC / Bonus' if I can't increase the field to fit the full text in. I have two reasons for that design choice. First is that tool proficiencies were originally appended to the skills section as seen in my first picture, and I wanted to draw the eye between it and skills more than the other proficiencies due to their use as a specialty; second is that with the amount of tool proficiencies you can gain, it [I]needs[/I] that extra space. Armor is pretty much capped at "Light/Med/Heavy Armor, Shield" while tools include trade tools, tool kits, instruments, gaming sets... I originally had the latter two in a separate box than the tool profs with languages on a third row running the full width, but after review I realized I couldn't separate it like that. I check each text box with relevant text to make sure the space is generous, and in the case of Tool Proficiencies I used my O5e rogue's tool profs with six proficiencies, along with three instruments to accommodate bard hypotheticals. The result was an overflow unless extra space was made. Similar in design is the factor of features/knacks, since I don't personally see elaboration of knacks on your sheet as necessary as features/traits. A knack is less likely to come up in combat, so you would have more time to refer to the book if you needed to whereas you don't want to disrupt things by looking up a feature mid-combat. LU logo space, I haven't focused on that until I have things in a state of completion. Definitely! I wasn't aware a section like that existed, actually; once I finish the other two projected pages and convert to a form fill PDF, I'll post there. Also while I have you here, is the logo in the official sheet for derivative use, or should I used the 'powered by' one as used by the other sheets? [/QUOTE]
