Yet another user-made character template. Whee!

Description

This is a simple, quickly-hacked-together template I made for me and my wife to use, which means it is pretty much tailored to fit our needs. It's partly based on Cavalier's tempate at GuildWiki, partly on Lensor's template at GWW, and partly my own ideas. It's extremely open-ended, so that you can put pretty much whatever you want in it.

Usage

The parameters are:

  • prof = Profession abbreviation (W, E, Rt, etc.; defaults to X if omitted)
  • name = Character name
  • image = Character image (full wiki-link style)
  • name-info = Short blurb about the origin of the character's name
  • born = Where/when the character was born
  • age = Character's age
  • background = The character's background
  • builds = Builds the character uses
  • armor = Special armor the character owns/wears
  • titles = Titles the character has achieved

The only one that is restricted on what you can pass to it is prof: this must be a standard abbreviation of a Guild Wars profession, or X for no profession. All the rest can be as small or as large a block of text/wiki-code you would like. You can even include other templates if you wish, like Template:Skill bar to easily display a build or Template:TitleList to organize your titles.

Example

In this example, you can see wiki-formatting in many of the parameters, and template inclusion in the build and titles parameters.

{{User:Dr ishmael/CharacterTemplate
    | name = Suzume Kimura
    | prof = Rt
    | image = [[Image:User Dr ishmael Suzume Kimura.jpg|200px]]
    | name-info = Since "taka" in ''Takashi'' can mean "hawk" in Japanese, I picked "suzume" (which means "swallow") for her name.
    | born = [[Cantha]], 4/28/2006
    | age = 83 hours
    | background = Suzume is probably my most versatile character [....]

'''In-Character:''' She hasn't been developed much as a character yet [....]
    | builds = {{Skill bar|1=Renewing Surge|2=Spirit Rift|3=Essence Strike|4=Spirit Burn|5=Gaze from Beyond|6=Destructive was Glaive|7=Bloodsong|8=Spirit to Flesh|size=40|outline=1|border=direct|text=hide}}
{{Skill bar|1=Blood of the Master|2=Animate Bone Minions|3=Death Nova|4=Signet of Creation|5=Boon of Creation|6=Explosive Growth|7=Reclaim Essence|size=40|outline=1|border=direct|text=hide}}
    | armor = *[[Ritualist Elite Imperial armor]] (purple)
    | titles = {{TitleList | Sunspear=6533 | Lightbringer=1244 | CanthanCartographer=67.6}}
}}

And the result:


Ritualist Suzume Kimura
