Template documentation

This is the main creature infobox template. It does a bunch of processing on its parameters before passing on all the results to Template:Infobox creature/internal for displaying.

List of helper sub-templates:

Usage tips:

  • To override stats for Explorer, Tactician, or Honour mode, use parameters starting with e, t, or h, respectively. E.g. use t hp to specify the HP value for Tactician difficulty. Explorer and Tactician fall back to Balanced (default) stats when a stat isn't overridden; Honour falls abck to Tactician stats.
  • The passives list may contain elements of the format Passive name @ Item name to specify the item that grants the passive. This will make that item's icon be used if the passive itself doesn't have an icon.
  • The image property may contain a <gallery>...</gallery>.
  • The provided image will be automatically set as the page image (as if using Template:PageSeo), unless it's a gallery. If it's a gallery, you can use the page image property instead to set the page image.

How to specify a creature's initiative bonus:

  • If a creature's initiative bonus is just their Dex modifier, then you mustn't use any initiative-related parameters. It will automatically use the Dex modifier.
  • If a creature has extra initiative bonus through sources other than Dex, use the extra init parameter to specify the extra value (without Dex modifier).
  • For example, if a creature has Alert (+5), Feral Instinct (+3), and Ambusher (+1), then you would specify extra init = 9, and the Dex modifier will be automatically added on top.
  • This way, if the creature's Dex changes between difficulties, the correct initiative bonus will be calculated. If necessary, the extra init parameter can also be changed per difficulty; for example, if the creature's Dex stays the same between difficulties, but they have an additional passive feature in a higher difficulty that grants them extra initiative.
