{| id="Race" class="infobox hidable" style="border-width: 0px; 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.

Usage
An example is shown to the right:

Explanation

 * 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 five 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.
