Currently, the Character Creator uses die types (i.e., d4-d12) to spend attribute points. I'm considering changing this to number fields into which you simply enter the number of points you want to spend on the attribute. On one hand, this breaks from the convention of seeing the die type your selecting for the attribute during character creation. On the other hand, it is a more direct way of seeing how many points you're spending, and it could possibly have a side display of the die type, including values such as d12+1 and above.

Let me know your thoughts!

Would it be possible to show both bits of information? Inputting the points and seeing the resultung die type or adjusting the die type and seeing how many points that totals to.
