Goals

Identify all NPCs that use a specific skill.

restrict to skills listed under Skills used (currently also identifies skills useful in defeating them)

Identify the profession of the NPC → need to use a switch to convert abbreviations into links and/or icons.

Identify the campaign. → Need to convert to link.

Identify any locations in which they appear (is this even possible?) → would allow us to dynamically update Acquisition section for elite skills

For this purpose, would also have to identify if there are pre-requisites or other conditions.

As an alternative, room could be made for dynamic footnotes in lieu or parenthetical statements. (The footnote details would be manually entered on the article with the transclusion, but the footnote marker would be made by the template.)

Link to maps (and indicate missing or multiple maps).
