In order to make a character page, all you have to do is enter your character's name in the box below to generate a page with an appropriate template. The template covers most of your character's on-MUSH information and provides room to include a picture. You can expand the character page from there, adding a logs section, relationships, or whatever you happen to feel like.

This page will allow you to create your very own character page with only a little bit of effort on your part! To begin, type the name of your character into the box below, which will create the page if it doesn't already exist, or allow you to edit/convert your current page if it already does. DO NOT EDIT OTHER PEOPLE'S PAGES! If you're creating your page for the first time and for whatever reason it seems one already exists, please either ensure you typed your character's @name correctly, or contact a staffer, they may need to rename the page of an old dropped character to free the namespace for you. '''Not all fields are mandatory, but the more you can fill in the better.''' If you need help, ask on the MUSH. '''Please note''' you may have to do some manual trimming of the fields just to ensure everything is in the correct place. Furthermore, the final box, "Logs & Other", '''should start with the following lines:'''<pre>{{Character Logs}}

==Cutscenes==
 +
{{Character Logs|Cutscenes}}</pre>

You are then free to add whatever sections you want to your character page, but not placing the logs first will cause the form to malfunction when you try using it to edit your page.
  
 
{{#forminput:form=Character Page}}
 
{{#forminput:form=Character Page}}
  
You can find an example of a filled-out character page '''[[TestCharacter|here]]'''.

<div id="wikiPreview" style="display: none; padding-bottom: 25px; margin-bottom: 25px; border-bottom: 1px solid #AAAAAA;"></div>
You can find a tutorial on categories '''[[Category Tutorial|here]]'''.

{{{for template|Character|label=Character Page}}}
<br>
+
{| class="formtable"
It is very important to read through the text in the character creation template. If your character is part of either the Union or Confederacy, odds are they will NOT appear in the [[Character Index]] until you follow the instructions included to add the Ally or Enlisted category to your page.

This page will allow you to create your very own character page with only a little bit of effort on your part! To begin, type the name of your character into the box below, which will create the page if it doesn't already exist, or allow you to edit/convert your current page if it already does. DO NOT EDIT OTHER PEOPLE'S PAGES! If you're creating your page for the first time and for whatever reason it seems one already exists, please either ensure you typed your character's @name correctly, or contact a staffer, they may need to rename the page of an old dropped character to free the namespace for you. Not all fields are mandatory, but the more you can fill in the better. If you need help, ask on the MUSH. Please note you may have to do some manual trimming of the fields just to ensure everything is in the correct place. Furthermore, the final box, "Logs & Other", should start with the following lines:
{{Character Logs}}
==Cutscenes==
{{Character Logs|Cutscenes}}

You are then free to add whatever sections you want to your character page, but not placing the logs first will cause the form to malfunction when you try using it to edit your page.
