I'm the player of multiple characters across three accounts. I don't think I have what would be called a "main" but I think Aleid and Avalera would be in the running for the title if so.

Sometimes I feel as though I'm taking a lot of liberties. I want to ensure that I'm following the prescribed rules while also adding improvements that have a net positive effect.

My WIPs

Currently: 0. I'm sure I'll think of some!

Wiki Things

Things to Memorize

Tables: When making a table for verb traps, this seems to be the most often-used style (! makes the line bold):

{| {{prettytable|background:#F0F8FF;height:15px;}} 
|- style="background:#000080; vertical-align: top; font-size: larger; color:white;"
!VERB ||FIRST ||THIRD 

Color: When used judiciously, color can be a helpful tool:

|<strong><span style="color:Red;">'''Reds'''</span></strong>

Things to Learn

What exactly is 400px?? Pixel width! I knew that!

Frequently Used Templates

Storynpcbox

{{storynpcbox
|storyline = <!-- add storyline2, storyline3, and storyline4 fields on a new line, as appropriate -->
|gender = 
|race = 
|life = <!-- Is the NPC dead or alive? -->
|hometown = 
|relationships = 
|alias = 
|affiliation = }}

Potential Templates

A template for the verb list - although the verb list is nearly complete, I don't mind retro-fitting them.

Templates I've made

Template:Townnpc
Template:Merchants
