{| id="Race" class="tantable" style="border-width: 1px; padding: 0px; color:#a9a78a; width: auto" This template is for use in any article about a creature, be it sapient or unintelligent. Most of the parameters are left optional. If left undefined they will not appear. The recommended image size is a width of 250px so that it will completely fill the infobox without increasing its size.

Add wiki links to articles to the relevant topics.

An example is shown to the right:

Explanation

 * text =    : Optional. This is for setting the text color, to reflect the origin of the creature in question. If the creature is from the natural world, leave it at default. If the creature is an elemental, use the text color 592e2f; for fey, use 455a2f; for immortals, use 2f505a; for aberrations, use 302f5a; for shadow creatures, use 454147.


 * background = : Optional. This is for setting the color of the template heading, to reflect the origin of the creature in question. If the creature is from the natural world, leave it at default. If the creature is an elemental, use the color deced2; for fey, use dce5da; for immortals, use cfdadf; for aberrations, use d0cfe0; for shadow creatures, use 999999.


 * image =    : Optional. Use a standard image tag]].
 * name =     : The name of the creature.


 * type =     : The general category of the creature. As of now, the wiki is using a hybrid of 4e and 3.5 creature types, with 4e creature type taking precedence. The 4e creature types are divided into three parts: origin, shape (what the Monster Manual calls type), and keyword (which are placed in parenthesis). There are six origins: aberration, elemental, fey, immortal, nautral, and shadow, each corresponding to a different plane of origin (Far Realm, Elemental Chaos, Feywild, Astral Sea, Prime Material Plane, and Shadowfell respectively). Additionally, there are four types: animate, beast, humanoid, and magical beast. Lastly, there are five keywords: angel, demon, devil, dragon, undead, as well as the elemental types for elemental creatures. Additionally, in order to accommodate the Forgotten Realms lore that does not match with the core 4e setting, the keywords celestial, fiend, and Tel-quessir are also used.


 * subtype =  : Optional. A more specific creature category. A gray orc's type would be natural humanoid, but its subtype would be orc, for example.
