Manual of Style:Characters

The guidelines here cover the manual of style and format of character articles. Please refrain from altering or adding to the format without consent of an admin.

If you have a suggestion regarding formatting, message an admin. If you think something should be added to a certain article, but you're not completely sure, start a talk page on the article.

## Introduction

Above the following headers and a single space below the infobox, provide a short and sweet introduction to the character, including their role to the story: main or side character, as well as information that may be included in their introduction in media. Refrain from unnecessary spoilers that would otherwise belong to the following headers.

## Appearance

Include noticeable traits to their appearance such as: height, hair style/color/length, eye color, clothing, and other details. If possible, provide an image of their full profile, preferably a character design chart or an image with a solid background as seen here: [1]

If you are unsure of whether an image you have will qualify for this guideline, contact a member of our staff and run it by them first. Also, if a character has an appearance trait that is not usually noticeable/visible, you can add an image that shows it. Be sure that the images are formatted using the following code, two spaces above the appearance description:

```
Example:

<gallery orientation="none" position="center" spacing="small" columns="3" widths="150">
Usagi Full.jpg|Full Appearance
Usagi ConceptArt.jpg|Early Concept Art
</gallery>
```

## Personality

Cover the character's personality. How they act and how it influences the way others see them.

## Background

Go over the character's backstory/past up that occurred prior to the start of the story/plot.

## Plot

Go over the character's role in the plot that has played out since the start of the series. We follow the web manga's plot. Summarize each arc, in detail, from the moment they debut onward towards the character's final appearance.

## Trivia

This section is for relevant proven facts that are not addressed on a regular basis. If it is common knowledge and constantly displayed, refrain from adding it to the trivia section.

## Skills & Abilities

Cover a character's abilities and fighting equipment here. Use headers for each and explain in detail under each section.

## Quotes

Quotes are for showcasing the character's personality and feelings based on a certain scenario, not just any random quote you find them say. Try to include a reference to where the quote came from. Here is the format to follow for a quote:

```
'''(To ___)''' ''"Quote goes here"''<br>— Insert Episode/Chapter}}
```

Following after the reference you may add a short sentence about the meaning behind the quote, to make it more clear.

## Gallery

Galleries are to contain sections for the following categories that images would fall under: Web Manga, Anime, and Other. The Anime section is further broken down into: Opening Theme, Ending Theme, and a section for each episode that would apply. *(EX: If a character does not appear in a certain episode, omit that section from the gallery.)*

If an image does not apply as an image from the light novel or anime, but rather some other form of media, it falls under **Other**. *(EX: CD cover, fanbook, misc.)*

Use the following code when setting up a gallery:

```
{{Header|#aa19b7|Anime}}
{{Header2|#aa19b7|Opening Theme}}
<gallery widths="150" position="center" spacing="small">
_____.jpg
_____.jpg
</gallery>}}

{{Header2|#aa19b7|Ending Theme}}
<gallery widths="150" position="center" spacing="small">
_____.jpg
_____.jpg
</gallery>}}
```
