Template talk:Creature

If we have levels for characters in the Forgotten Realms, would it also be reasonable to have challenge ratings for monsters, as a comparison? Fw190a8 00:22, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

More Detail
While I agree with the crunchy policy, I would like to see the following added to creatures. I don't know how to do it and would like some agreement first anyway. Hurtzbad 07:31, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Size [How big are these things]
 * Speed [How fast are these things]


 * We generally include size within the text, where the info. is available. For example: "A black pudding is an ooze that resembles a bubbling, heaping pile of thick, black goo, roughly 15' (4.57m) across and 2' (71cm) thick." I dont really have an opinion on speed, one way or another. Johnnyriot999 15:13, 9 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Indeed, I entirely agree with including the size within the text where possible, perhaps in a section on physical appearance. I am not sure why speed is important unless it is abnormal for the size or type of the creature, and even so, this can be included in the text. Fw190a8 17:19, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Sourcing
I added an optional source and page number tag, since all the data for the creature infobox tends to come from the same source (as opposed to the person infobox). If anyone has a problem with this approach, I'd like to hear your opinion. We can always remove it later. --Ebakunin 00:42, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

I think that's a good implementation as the prestige class box has one also. Johnnyriot999 07:09, 29 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I agree, that's a good way of doing things. I like it. Fw190a8 13:00, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
