Yet another user-made character template. Whee!

Description

I basically just added the regular armor section, equipment section, and genericized the example. The rest of the description is from Dr ishmael:

This is a simple, quickly-hacked-together template I made for me and my wife to use, which means it is pretty much tailored to fit our needs. It's partly based on Cavalier's tempate at GuildWiki, partly on Lensor's template at GWW, and partly my own ideas. It's extremely open-ended, so that you can put pretty much whatever you want in it.

Usage

The parameters are:

• prof = Profession abbreviation (W, E, Rt, etc.; defaults to X if omitted)
• Profession List = Secondary Professions place an x next to your secondary professions
• name = Character name
• image = Character image (full wiki-link style)
• name-info = Short blurb about the origin of the character's name
• born = Where/when the character was born
• age = Character's age (either /age in hours or RP age in years, or whatever you want)
• xp = Character's experience point total
• background = The character's background
• goals = What you plan to accomplish with the character (but haven't yet)
• builds = Builds the character uses
• equipment = Weapons and offhands the character owns/uses
• parmor = Prestige Armor the character owns/wears
• armor = Armor the character owns/wears
• pet = Animal Companion
• titles = Titles the character has achieved

The only one that is restricted on what you can pass to it is prof: this must be a standard abbreviation of a Guild Wars profession, or X for no profession. All the rest can be as small or as large a block of text/wiki-code you would like. You can even include other templates if you wish, like Template:Scalable skill bar to easily display a build or Template:TitleList to organize your titles.

Example

In this example, you can see wiki-formatting in many of the parameters, and template inclusion in the build and titles parameters.

{{User:Qelsi710/CharacterTemplate
    | name = Joe Schmoe
    | prof = Rt
    | warrior = 
    | ranger = 
    | monk = x
    | necro = x
    | mesmer = 
    | ele = x
    | sin = 
    | rit = 
    | derv =
    | para = 
    | image = [[Image:User_Qelsi710_Joe_Schmoe.jpg]]
    | name-info = Its the standard random guy.
    | born = [[Cantha]], 4/28/2006
    | age = 21 hours
    | xp = 8,279
    | background = Joe is pretty much a useless character [....]

'''In-Character:''' He was born to young lady stick and handsome circle [....]
    | builds = {{scalable skill bar|40px|Weapon of Quickening|Splinter Weapon|Warmonger's Weapon|Ancestors' Rage|Essence Strike|Bloodsong|Glyph of Lesser Energy|Flesh of My Flesh}}
{{scalable skill bar|40px|Blood of the Master|Animate Bone Minions|Death Nova|Signet of Creation|Boon of Creation|Explosive Growth|Reclaim Essence}}
    | equipment = *[[Hourglass Staff]]
    | parmor = *[[Ritualist Elite Imperial armor]] (purple)
    | armor = *[[Ritualist Imperial armor]] (gray)
    | pet = *{{User:Qelsi710/Qelsi Yew/Cuthalion}}
    | titles = {{TitleList | Sunspear=6533 | Lightbringer=1244 | CanthanCartographer=67.6}}
}}

And the result:

Joe Schmoe
