Documentation

This documentation is transcluded from Template:Infobox character/doc. (view | edit | history)

This infobox is used to document major aspects of a character, including appearance(s) and creator(s), but largely leverages on in-universe information like affiliation, abilities and physical characteristics.

Usage

The infobox may be added by pasting the template as shown below into an article, typically at the top of an article above the lead section.
