New page

: ''For help writing an article about a creature, see [[Help:Writing an article about a creature]].''

'''{{tl|Creature}}''' is for use in any article about any creature or monster in the [[Pathfinder campaign setting]]. Some parameters are ''optional'' and can be left blank or omitted entirely; if undefined, these optional parameters will not appear as part of the template.

This template is based upon the [[frw:Template:Creature|Forgotten Realms Wiki Creature Template]].

For creatures that exist in both [[Pathfinder First Edition]] and [[Pathfinder Second Edition]], use {{tl|Creature tabbed}}, which allows you to add infobox details for both editions in the same infobox.

== Template ==

=== Pathfinder First Edition ===

<pre>
{{Creature
| image =
| name =
| type =
| subtype =
| challenge =
| environment =
| alignment =
| adjective =
| aon1e =
| imagesof =
| source =
| page =
| footnote =
}}
</pre>

=== Pathfinder Second Edition ===

<pre>
{{Creature
| image =
| name =
| traits =
| level =
| alignment =
| adjective =
| aon2e =
| imagesof =
| source =
| page =
| footnote =
}}
</pre>

== Usage ==

Use this infobox template for creature types, species, and unique non-sentient creatures. For unique sentient creatures, use the {{tl|Person}} or {{tl|Person tabbed}} templates.

=== Common parameters ===

; image ''(optional)'': An image of the creature, using the standard [[Help:Uploading files#Using uploaded files|File syntax]]. Should be given without <code>[[]]</code> or any settings. For example, to add an image of a goblin, set this parameter's value to:

<pre>File:Goblin.jpg</pre>

; name ''(optional)'': The name of the creature. If omitted, the template uses the article name by default.

; alignment ''(optional)'': Use the {{tl|Alignment grid}} template to indicate the creature's usual [[alignment]]s. If a 2E creature was published pre-remaster with alignment but has been published post-remaster without alignment, then you can mark this parameter <nowiki></nowiki>, and note its legacy alignment+source in the Footnote parameter. For creatures published post-remaster, simply mark this parameter <nowiki></nowiki>.

; adjective ''(optional)'': The adjective used to describe entities of, or pertaining or relating to, the creature.

; imagesof ''(optional)'': The name of the category that contains images of this creature, which appears in the infobox as a link to the category page. For instance, an '''imagesof''' value of {{xt|goblins}} create a link to [[:Category:Images of goblins]] with the link text "Images of goblins". This parameter is case-sensitive. If this parameter is omitted, the infobox uses the article name suffixed by a single "s".

; source & page ''(optional)'': The source wherein the creature was first published, or from which the most information is available. Link the source's title, and include a page number if possible.

; footnote ''(optional)'': Footnotes specific to the infobox, if required, such as to note legacy details or cite sources with additional context.

; aon1e, aon2e ''(optional)'': The final part of a URL to an Archives of Nethys page about the creature, monster family, or race/ancestry, starting after the first slash (e.g. <code>Monsters.aspx?ID=490</code> from <nowiki>https://2e.aonprd.com/</nowiki>'''Monsters.aspx?ID=490''', or <code>MonsterDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Augur</code> from <nowiki>https://aonprd.com/</nowiki>'''MonsterDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Augur''').

=== Pathfinder First Edition parameters ===

; type ''(optional)'': The creature's type as defined in the [[Pathfinder Roleplaying Game]] and hyperlinked. Examples include Dragon, Humanoid, or Undead. For more information about creature types, consult the ''[[Bestiary (First Edition)|Bestiary]]'' (page 306) or the [http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/bestiary/creatureTypes.html#creature-types Pathfinder Reference Document].

; subtype ''(optional)'': A more specific category for the creature in addition to type, as defined in the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. For example, a drow would fall under the Humanoid type and the elf subtype. For more information about subtypes, consult the ''[[Bestiary (First Edition)|Bestiary]]'' (page 310) or the [http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/bestiary/creatureTypes.html#creature-subtypes Pathfinder Reference Document].

; challenge ''(optional)'': The creature's ''Challenge Rating'', as presented in its primary stat block.

; environment ''(optional)'': The environment in which the creature is most likely to be encountered. This is most often included in a creature's stat block, but can also be inferred from its description. It is best to copy the ''exact'' words from the creature's stat block into this line capitalizing the first letter of the phrase.

=== Pathfinder Second Edition parameters ===

; traits ''(optional)'': The creature's traits as defined in [[Pathfinder Second Edition]]. For more information about traits, consult the ''[[Core Rulebook]]'' or the [https://2e.aonprd.com/Traits.aspx Pathfinder Reference Document]. See below for an example.

; level ''(optional)'': The creature's level.

; nocategories ''(optional)'': Passing any value to this parameter disables autocategorization by Second Edition traits.
