Manual of Style:Characters

The guidelines here cover the manual of style and format of character articles. Please refrain from altering or adding to the format without consent of an admin.

If you have a suggestion regarding formatting, message an admin. If you think something should be added to a certain article, but you're not completely sure, start a talk page on the article.

Introduction
Above the following headers, a single space below the infobox, and not listed under a header. Provide a short and sweet introduction to the character, including their role to the story: main or side character, as well as information that may be included in their introduction in media. Refrain from unnecessary spoilers that would otherwise belong to the following headers.

Appearance
Include noticeable traits to their appearance such as: height, hair style/color/length, eye color, clothing, and other details. If possible, provide an image of their full profile, preferably a character design chart or an image with a solid background.

If you are unsure of whether an image you have will qualify for this guideline, contact a member of our staff and run it by them first. Also, if a character has an appearance trait that is not usually noticeable/visible, you can add an image that shows it. Use present tense for active characters and past tense for deceased characters.

Personality
Cover the character's personality. How they act and how it influences the way others see them. For active characters, use the present tense. For deceased characters, use the past tense.

History
Go over the character's backstory/past up that occurred prior to the start of the story/plot. Use the past tense for both Active and deceased characters.

Manga Plot

Anime Plot
