Template:HadezCharData/doc
Contents
Summary
This is a work in progress and my first attempt at serious wiki-fiddling so be gentle :)
If valid world and character parameters are entered it shows character data gathered in real-time from the game and sets some semantic tags on the page.
If invalid world or character characters are entered (user errror or if a character has died or been deleted) nothing is shown at all.
There are currently two display formats, a 'prose' version suitable for use as an introduction at the top of a character's page and a 'plain' list of the character's details suitable for putting in a box or at the foot of the page. There will be a formatted infobox style format with colour and image options coming soon.

Known Issues
As characters vary there may be cases where this template does not work as expected. Please report these in the discussion page for this template. Particularly I want to test that the feature that works out and displays a character's liege works correctly.
