Default Re: Phoenix Sheet: Hide all trait modifiers?

True, though I could work around that by adding relevant details to the Name (Name Extension) description. E.G. a Sword with the cheap modifier would renamed Cheap Sword or Sword (Rusty, old). A disad like Greed with a SC would be written as Greed (12 or less), which is visually indistinguishable. This is something I do it anyway, so it's not out of my way.

Those would be helpful! As far as I can tell Hidden Traits are a function of templates only, and there doesn't seem to be a way to tag individual traits to be hidden, let alone modifiers.

That looks like that's what I'll end up doing, thank you.
