This page details the standards set down for articles describing current and former Player Characters.

Character Pages

Feel free to add your character (via a character page) to the Player Characters category. To do this, simply create a new page with your character's name (first name only please), insert the desired information.

You can use our {{Player character}} template to create a small table for your character. This will also place your character in the appropriate categories.

Example:

{{Player character 
| Player Name = Firstname Lastname 
| Race        = Elothean 
| Gender      = Female 
| Guild       = Cleric  
| Instance    = Prime 
}}

Official Positions

Some PCs also hold official positions within the various governments and organizations of Elanthia. These are referred to as Player Character "Positions of Importance".

Conflicting Servers

If you have more than one character that shares the same name across different instances, simply append "(Prime)" "(Plat)" or "(Fallen)" to the end of the character name, and create an index page at the base name.

Categories

Please do not add PCs to the NPC categories. Generally speaking, categories for PCs take the form of "Category: Player XXXXX".
