(Pathfinder stat blocks italicize anything magical, both spells and magic items). I started using capitals for spell names so I could quickly see individual spells within a compact list (my mind barrels right over those teeny, tiny commas).This all got me into the habit of capitalizing game terms during message board discussions, but only in serious discussions. It helps me keep track of my thoughts, and (I hope) it circumvents confusion.I'm nowhere near consistent; but I think I generally capitalize feats, skills, spells, ability scores, features, and things like Armor Class, Speed, and Hit Points. I don't think I would capitalize classes and races. They don't seem to be game 'termy' enough for me. Though I think I would capitalize archetypes, like Champion and Eldritch Knight. Hmm, go figure.However, special cases call for special considerations. For instance: A rogue barbarian who left his clan to become a barbarian Fighter, would often be seen in the streets at fisticuffs with whole slews of Barbarian fighters. <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="🙃" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f643.png" title="Upside-down face    :upside_down:" data-shortname=":upside_down:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" /></blockquote>
