Template:Infobox Watcher

From Grigoripedia
{{{name}}}

Usage

Use {{Infobox Watcher}} for individual Watcher articles.

Only |name is required. All other parameters are optional. Rows, blocks, and sections associated with omitted or empty parameters are not displayed.

|other_names is displayed in small text beneath the Watcher’s primary name.

For multiple alternative names, separate the names with the bullet character surrounded by spaces:

| other_names = Šamayazzu • Yaqum • Yeqon

|position and |tribe are displayed as centered, bolded blocks beneath the image.

Ordinarily, use |position for Dekadarchs:

| position = First Dekadarch

For Non-Dekadarch Watchers, use |tribe in the form Tribe of [Dekadarch]:

| tribe = Tribe of Samyaza

Ordinarily, do not use |tribe for Dekadarchs.

The title block appears beneath the position or tribe block. All titles use the same normal-weight styling. Separate multiple titles with line breaks:

| titles = Chief of the Watchers<br>Great Apothecary<br>Cutter of Roots

The Appearance section is displayed only when at least one of |hair, |eyes, |wings, |skin_tone, or |facial_hair is provided. If all five parameters are omitted or empty, the entire section is hidden.

Notes

Separate multiple short values in ordinary data fields with semicolons, bullet lists, or {{Plainlist}}, depending on the amount of information.

Use |other_names only for legitimate alternative names. Secondary or corrupted forms belong under |corruptions.

For Dekadarchs, use |position and ordinarily leave |tribe blank. For Non-Dekadarch Watchers, use |tribe to identify the appropriate Watcher tribe.

The appearance parameters should describe the Watcher’s attested, established appearance according to Satano-Grigorist deity notes, not speculation. If the Watcher’s appearance is unknown, leave all appearance fields blank.
