===Character Vignettes===

Character vignettes are vignettes posted by players for their characters. They should not use this template. Character vignettes are considered a form of "off screen roleplay" instead of a creative work. These may be tied to a storyline, but must always be tied to the character first and foremost. This is done by setting the vignette up as a subpage to their character page. Page naming standard should be as follows:
: <code><nowiki>Character name (instance)/Vignette name</nowiki></code>

For more information on character vignettes related to storylines, see [[:Help:Storyline guidelines]].
