Syntax[edit]

To add an infobox to your page, add

{{Infobox character
| }}

or

{{Infobox WM character
| }}

at the top of your page.

To add categories to your info box, call the categories you would like by name, as listed below, using this syntax: | category = what you want it to say.
Example:

{{Infobox character
| image = image.png
| fullname = Wally Colorado
| race = Dragonborn
| age = 69
| DOB = April 20
| }}

Categories[edit]

Here are categories you can use for your infoboxes, in the order in which they will appear (seemingly?).

  • General
    • Page Name appears at the top by default.
    • world - either Wildemount or Fairweather Vale, depending on where the character comes from
    • image calls an image.
    • caption works as an image caption, sort of, for now. needs some css-ery
  • Character Bits
    • fullname - use this if they have a whole ass name that isn't the title of their page
    • alias - for when they have one or more other whole ass names
    • creaturetype
    • race
    • pronouns
    • age
    • DOB
  • Vital Stats/Appearance
    • height
    • hair - this could probably also work for fur, but open to opinions from fur-havers on this one
    • eyes - tell us about their limpid pools
    - should there be a skin color tag? that feels potentially fraught but also maybe worth having in a world where some people are blue and stuff
  • Affiliations
    • nationality - what's their homeland? use [[COUNTRY|DEMONYM]] to link
    • hometown - if you want to get specific
    • affiliations - they got an adventuring party? a history with a shadowy organization that haunts them?? note it here
    • bias - which god is their stan?
    • language - use <br> or <ul> tags to list. Feel free to denote proficiency in parentheses.
