Drawing Legend Block

My team uses a predefined legend which contains a pool of possible legend entries based on what is being represented on each sheet. Currently we have a master legend which lives in our template and gets trimmed down depending on what we need for that particular plan set. This is time consuming and prone to error. 
I was wondering if there is a way to create a block (or possibly some other AutoCAD tool that I haven't thought of) that would allow us to select the legend entries we need for that drawing from a list (possibly in a GUI of some kind) and the block would populate and auto-size.
Thanks for any help.

I don't think that dynamic blocks are the way to go on this. 

 

I have done similar using AutoCAD tables.  Make the master table and delete the unneeded rows.  The formatting 'heals' after row removal.
