This is kinda in agreement with Derek-mun, but a little different. I think. /shot
I like the skills/abilities/powers section idea. However, I think it could be done a little differently than Derek-mun suggests. What I propose is that you turn 'personality' and 'strengths-weakness' into 'personality' and 'physical skills/abilities/powers and weaknesses'.
As it is, I find that every app session I do the personality part, get to strengths and weaknesses, and think... "Wait, mental/emotional strengths and weaknesses? Didn't I... just ramble for three paragraphs about that?" There's never much left after the personality section to put into the mental and emotional components.
That leaves the physical strengths and weaknesses. This would be easily remedied by adding a 'physical skills/abilities and weaknesses' section. This is where they'd basically brag about everything their character can do (and you might even add in an 'also consider the halved-powers effect of Luceti' note), and add in where their characters are physically flawed as well.
As it is, with just strengths/weaknesses, it awkwardly crams together two things that would much easier be filled-out and understood separately.

Just my thoughts, don't mind me. :)
