• {{CharLink}}

This template creates a link to a character with an accompanying portrait icon. It expects an icon at File:Portrait {Name}.png, but this icon file can be overridden with the icon field.

This template has associated maintenance categories:

• Category:Pages using charlink for a deity
• Category:Pages with an explicit charlink icon
