See examples in the article. A tiny thing, but I think it looks good. Anyone else?

I have tended to go a bit the other way. I use lots of white space and bullet points for traits, lay out attacks in tables (So does GURPS in general). Bolding works visually when there's not that much of it. If it's just one bold thing after another, it loses its eye-catching nature.

I'd have to ponder a more coherent response; overall, the "giant wall of text" is just horrible for anything but page density.
