Tom and Luke’s character sheet has been refactored and synchronized up to Chapter 19, Tom’s shown.

The big change was not the percentages. It was fixing the stats worksheet and adding one for skills. Both now have cross-tab references so changes ripple through rather than needing to be copy/pasted between tabs.

Yes, I should have done it that way to begin with, but I’ve never created a spreadsheet with 26 tabs before. For one or two, the copy/paste method is fine. This was not fine. The number of errors I found when updating the text!

However, I’m not going to update everyone else’s because they are not referenced as often and the manual process will hold for this book. Book two will get fresh spreadsheets and I’ll do those properly from the start.

Only seven more chapters to go and everything’s synched up. After work task.

Oh, the bold parts are what get copied into the text. The rest of it is internal. It fits fine on the 8×10, margined page. I’m not so sure about Kindle. There may be a reformatting pass to make it narrower.
