Summary[edit]

This template creates an infobox for use on all Creature pages. It includes the appropriate bread crumb trails and categories. It can be used on Morrowind, Tribunal, Bloodmoon, Oblivion, and Shivering Isles pages.

Parameters[edit]

Creature Summary
Parameter Scope Description
titlename optional Creature's name as displayed at the top of the infobox. Generally NOT needed; will default to use PAGENAME. Only needed when pagename contains extra information (i.e., disambiguation).
altname optional Creature's name as used in category tags. Generally NOT needed: will default to use PAGENAME. Only needed when the creature's name starts with "The" or "A" to fix the alphabetization of categories.
lorepage optional Name of the relevant Lore page to display below the creature's name. Only the page name itself is required, not the Lore: prefix. Note that this works differently from NPC Summary due to the large number of instances where a lore link would be undesirable.
refid optional Creature's reference FormID. Multiple IDs should be separated with a comma. refid and baseid should be used in place of the standard id parameter for any creatures that are unique and therefore have a uniquely defined reference ID.
baseid optional Creature's base FormID. Multiple IDs should be separated with a comma.
refidhover
baseidhover
optional Whether hover text should be used. If so, ID format becomes: id1,hover1,id2,hover2.
mod optional Name of mod that adds creature (if not in baseline version of game).
city optional Creature's "Home City" (formatted as a link to appropriate page).
house optional Name of the "House" where this creature lives (if not a merchant).
loc optional "Location" where creature can be found (if not in a city or in a house)
N.B. generally creatures will have city+house or just loc set. All three of city, house and loc are not intended to be used together but they are provided as redundant options so that an appropriate place-related box can be created for any creature.
species optional Species. If speciescat is not provided species should be a plain word, i.e., not a link. If speciescat is provided, it can be a plain word or a link to the appropriate species page.
speciescat optional Species to be used for page's category: not as a link, singular. Generally not needed: will default to use species. Only needed when creature is a non-standard species without a category. Can be set to "none" to prevent any species category from being added to page.
tribe optional Creature's tribe - use for goblins and other tribal creatures.
level optional Creature's level
type optional Creature's type (e.g. Daedra, Undead, etc.)
gold optional Merchants' gold (only needed for merchants).
sells optional List of items sold by merchant.
buys optional List of types of items bought by merchant, corresponding to CS categories.

essential optional Is Creature essential: Always, Sometimes, Never.

drops optional Any items carried by creature (or added to their corpse on death).
image optional The name of an image file for this Creature, just the file name. Set to none if there is no image.
imgdesc required if image
provided
Description of image.
tablewidth optional Width of overall table. Normally only needed if infobox is being embedded in another table, in which case set it to 100%.
nocat optional If set, will not put page into any categories.
notrail optional If set to "yes", the breadcrumb trail normally created by the template is suppressed (for cases where multiple templates are used on one page or when used for a generic NPC.
nosave optional If specified, the NPC information will not be saved. This is most useful on pages with multiple summaries where the information conflicts but one NPC Summary is considered the primary one to use.
