Template:CharacterInfo

{{{name}}} Joined: {{{date}}} Character style: {{{style}}} Favorite equipment: {{{equipment}}} Current status: {{{status}}} Group: {{{group}}}

how to use this template

Use the format given below. The extra fields allow you to add extra categories of your choosing. If you leave them blank, they won't show. This is supposed to be more compact and versatile than Template:character. This template would work for characters that aren't PKers as well. Some harman-themed examples of stats you could use as extras are: revives, zombies killed, PKers killed, level. The extras shown in the example are more PKer-themed.

Usage:

{{CharacterInfo|
name=Character name|
date=Date character was created|
style=Style of character|
equipment=Favorite equipment|
status=Your status|
group=Group|
extra1=Extra category|
extraValue1=Value for extra category|
extra2=Another extra category|
extraValue2=Value for extra2|
extra3=Another extra category|
extraValue3=Value for extra3
extra4=Another extra category|
extraValue4=Value for extra4
}}

Example:

{{CharacterInfo|
 name=Mr or Mrs Example|
 date=March 01, 2012|
 style=PKer|
 equipment=punching!|
 status=kicking butt|
 group=Fake Group FTW|
 extra1=Strike Team:|
 extraValue1=A really deadly team!|
 extra2=Bounty:|
 extraValue2=KOS|
 extra3=Kills:|
 extraValue3=a billion|
 extra4=Deaths:|
 extraValue4=over 9000!
 }}

This example would produce:

Mr or Mrs Example Joined: March 01, 2012 Character style: PKer Favorite equipment: punching! Current status: kicking butt Group: Fake Group FTW Strike Team: A really deadly team! Bounty: KOS Kills: a billion Deaths: over 9000!

Changing defaults

If you don't like the defaults in the template, you can easily change them. This is not required to use the template, just as using the extras isn't required. For example, if you don't have favorite equipment, you can use that slot for something else of your choosing. If you're confused by this, then ignore it! The template will work just fine with the default categories.

Usage with the defaults changed:

{{CharacterInfo|
name=Character name|
dateAlt=category of your choosing|
date=value for the dateAlt category|
styleAlt=category of your choosing|
style=value for the styleAlt category|
equipmentAlt=category of your choosing|
equipment=value for the equipmentAlt category|
statusAlt=category of your choosing|
status=value for the statusAlt category|
groupAlt=category of your choosing|
group=value for the groupAlt category|
extra1=Extra category|
extraValue1=Value for extra category|
extra2=Another extra category|
extraValue2=Value for extra2|
extra3=Another extra category|
extraValue3=Value for extra3
extra4=Another extra category|
extraValue4=Value for extra4
}}

Example:

{{CharacterInfo|
 name=Example Zombie|
 dateAlt=Mood:|
 date=hungry for brains|
 styleAlt=Location:|
 style=Ridleybank|
 equipmentAlt=Claws vs. Teeth:|
 equipment=infectious bite ftw!|
 statusAlt=Combat Revived:|
 status=200 times|
 groupAlt=Extra XP:|
 group=more than Kevan has|
 extra1=Generators Smashed:|
 extraValue1=a lot|
 extra2=Buildings Ruined:|
 extraValue2=all of them|
 extra3=Kills:|
 extraValue3=a billion|
 extra4=Deaths:|
 extraValue4=over 9000!
 }}

This example would produce:

Example Zombie Mood: hungry for brains Location: Ridleybank Claws vs. Teeth: infectious bite ftw! Combat Revived: 200 times Extra XP: more than Kevan has Generators Smashed: a lot Buildings Ruined: all of them Kills: a billion Deaths: over 9000!

A few more optional things

These are just more things you can ignore if you don't want to bother with them. I'll probably add more of them sometime, when I feel like it. Note that the template has a bit of extra space at the bottom if you don't use all the extras. You can get rid of it and make the template take up less space, at the same time.

Change the width of the template:
  width=|      (expands to fit the width of what's inside it)
  width=500px| (or pick a width that goes with your page layout)
Change the colors:
  background=newcolor| (background)
  nameColor=newcolor|  (name color)
  header=newcolor|     (background color of the top part)
  detail=newcolor|   (if you change header, change this to match)
Get rid of the pesky space at the bottom. or make it huge, I don't care:
  padding=0|  (don't look at me like that, it works, ok)
  spacing=0|
