RWP Wiki:Character Page Template

From RWP Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search
The following is a sample character page. This format is to be used for any character pages. Conker is used as an example for images on this page. Note that not every category shown here will be applicable for every character page. For example, a character who does not speak due to appearing in an older game will not have any Quotes.
Image of the character from the game in which he or she has most recently appeared (not counting "cameo" appearances." Renders of characters are preferred when available, but screen shots of characters will do in a pinch.

Character is a minor/major/main (recurring) character in Game/the Game series.

Contents

Biography

A description of the character's personality, physical appearance, quirks, etc. Mentions of the character's home and family and friends as well, when applicable.

History and development

A recap of the character's development and creation, if the information is available from staff interviews, etc.

In the Games

Game 1

In Game 1, a description of the character's role in the first game they appear in. Obviously, each game has a separate subsection.

A note should be made that ports/remakes of video games only get sections on character pages if they are significantly different from their original counterpart. For example, an extra section about Tiptup's appearance in Banjo-Kazooie (XBLA) would not be appropriate, but noting that Tiny Kong appears in Diddy Kong Racing DS, but not Diddy Kong Racing would be appropriate.

If a character does not physically appear in a game, but is mentioned by another character, appears as a portrait on a wall/statue/etc., then list that game on the character's page and label the subsection "Game 1 (Cameo)" and describe the cameo appearance(s) the character makes in the game. If a character only has a cameo in a game, do not add them to that game's "characters" category.

  • Character 2: A quick summary of the characters relationship with another character they interact with frequently.
