There's an implication that event coordinators/GMs are permitted to copy, modify, and distribute chronicle sheets, but where is this permission actually granted and how far does it reach? Scenarios mention:
No portion of this work other than the material designated as Open Game Content may be reproduced in any form without written permission.
But chronicles have trade dress, proper nouns, etc. so would not be directly duplicatable via the Open Game Content exemption.
The Guides to Organized Play mention that it is a GM duty to give a player an accurate chronicle sheet, but I'm uncertain if that counts as permission. And if so, that may not apply to event coordinators.
Modification/copying/distribution seem to go beyond the "You are granted permission to print assets for personal use." from the Community Use Policy.
The same issue exists when a chronicle says something like "Along with this Chronicle sheet, your GM should provide you a copy of the [so-and-so] appendix" (e.g. custom race boon).
