My DM has incorporated Tattoo magic and there are skills involved in it.
How do I create a custom skill for the character sheet.
Also,
I would like to add Powerful Build to the character sheet. I have the rule set on pathfinder and when I try to switch it to 3.5, it warns me that it will wipe everything.
Thanks in Advance for assistance

New skills are added in the Skills worksheet (there is a quick link on that sheet that will bring you to the (yellow) custom area.kryssalmighty wrote: How do I create a custom skill for the character sheet.
Correct, you cannot use the Sheet in both modes at the same time. If you need something that is only in the 'other' rule set, you need to create it. If you need help creating something, open a thread in the help desk, and explain exactly what you are trying to create (and where you need assistance)kryssalmighty wrote: Also, I would like to add Powerful Build to the character sheet.

Re: Custom Skills and 3.5 feats in pathfinder
Is there something that explains how to create a custom skill?
I checked and Powerful Build is not on either sheet. I see that I can create a custom Feat as well. I assume that it would work the same way as a skill does and if I know how to make a custom skill, I will know how to make a custom feat.
Is that correct?

Creating a new skill is pretty simple - just fill in the column info and check any comments in that area.kryssalmighty wrote:Is there something that explains how to create a custom skill?
You can create custom feats in the Feats worksheet. Feats can have effects. You can check out the Wiki and the video section on the homepage for more on this (the readme file that is part of the sheet has the links for those)kryssalmighty wrote:I checked and Powerful Build is not on either sheet.

I am not familiar with powerful build.

Re: Custom Skills and 3.5 feats in pathfinder
Examples are always good. Here's how I entered Lore: Irori into my character:
On the Skills page, in the Custom section:
Name (Column A) Lore: Irori-p
Abbreviation (Column B) Lore: Irori
Ability (Column C) INT <-- INT for Intelligence modifier
Can use untrained? (Column D) no
Armor Check Penalty (Column E) 0
Ranks (Column F) =IF(b_Pathfinder,IF(COUNTIF(tSel_Skills,"Lore: Irori-p")=0,0,VLOOKUP("Lore: Irori-p",res_Skills,20,FALSE)),0)
To make the skill a class skill (all Lore skills are class skills for all classes), I go to the AbilityData sheet, in its Custom area:
Name (Column A) Character Effects
Perm? (Column C) Yes
Effect #1: Name (Column E) ALL Class Skill
Type (Column F) Class Skill
Modif (Column G) Lore: Irori-p
You can put multiple class skills in Modif, separated by commas.
Finally, if you need to reference the number of ranks the character has in the skill, use this formula:
=VLOOKUP("Lore: Irori-p",t_Skills,6,FALSE)
You can also use it as part of a larger formula, such as =IF(VLOOKUP("Lore: Irori-p",t_Skills,6,FALSE)<6,"Less than 6 ranks","Six or more ranks")

Thank you both for the information!!
I created custom skills last night and they are working as intended!
Will watch the video on creating custom Feats tonight and try that out.
Thank you all again!!
