===Intro===
The intro is a general, usually brief, paragraph describing general information about the character and their relevance to the plot, without any major spoilers. Things the intro should have, in general order it should be in:
;Quote
:A quote, usually that they say, describing the character without spoilers. Remember that certain characters, such as Alva of ''Thracia 776'', do not have a single line in the game other than their death quote, so do not worry if you cannot find a good quote.
;Name
:The characters english name, or romanization, with their Japanese name with proper romanization. Additionally, some characters are known as different things in Japan, such as Marisa is Marica.
;Game appearances
:The games the character appears in or is referenced in.
;Chapters
:The chapter the character first appears in, is first playable in, or is a boss in.
;Starting class
:The class the character starts as.
;Relationships
:The relationships between them and other characters, such as family, enemies, friends, lovers, etc.
;Home town
:The town or country where the character is originally from, or is settled in at the start of the game.
====Example====
{{Quote|The breeze, the trees, the sky, the brooks... They are all speaking to us.|Sue to [[Roy]] in a support conversation.}}
'''Sue''' (スー, ''Suu'') is a character in {{FE6}}. She first appears in [[Traps|Chapter 6]].
A [[Sacae]]an [[nomad]]ic girl, Sue is a member of the [[Kutolah]] tribe and granddaughter of their leader, Dayan, also known as the Silver Wolf. She is also the daughter of [[Rath]], a playable character from {{FE7}}. While her mother's name is unknown, there is the possibility of [[Lyn]] being the other parent, as suggested by her shared ending with Rath.
----
===General information===
The next heading will be the name of the game they appear in. If there are multiple, cover all of them '''in order of the games' release dates.''' All games will have the following subsections:
====Role====
In this section, describe the role of the character in the plot.
====Starting stats and growth rates====
For the starting stats, use the template linked to depending on the game.
{| border="1px solid #{{Color2}};"
!Game
!Template
|-
|''Ankoku Ryuu to Hikari no Tsurugi''
|[[Template:CharStats FE3|CharStats FE3]]
|-
|''Gaiden''
|[[Template:CharStats FE2|CharStats FE2]]
|-
|''Monshou no Nazo''
|[[Template:CharStats FE3|CharStats FE3]]
|-
|''Seisen no Keifu''
|[[Template:CharStats FE4|CharStats FE4]]
|-
|''Thracia 776''
|[[Template:CharStats FE5|CharStats FE5]]
|-
|''Fuuin no Tsurugi''
|[[Template:CharStats GBA|CharStats GBA]]
|-
|''Blazing Sword''
|[[Template:CharStats GBA|CharStats GBA]]
|-
|''The Sacred Stones''
|[[Template:CharStats GBA|CharStats GBA]]
|-
|''Path of Radiance''
|[[Template:CharStats GCN|CharStats GCN]]
|-
|''Radiant Dawn''
|[[Template:CharStats Wii|CharStats Wii]]
|-
|''Shadow Dragon''
|[[Template:CharStats DS|CharStats DS]]
|-
|''Shin Monshou no Nazo''
|[[Template:CharStats DS|CharStats DS]]
|-
|''BS Fire Emblem''
|[[Template:CharStats FE3|CharStats FE3]]
|}
====Promotion gains====
Use [[Template:PromotionGains]].
Repeat these sections under different game headings if there are any more. A good example would be [[Hector]].
----
===Personality and character===
This section is two to three paragraphs and usually takes the longest. In the first paragraph, describe the character's personality. Not just in a few sentences, but try to describe every aspect of their personality that is mentioned. Use the support conversations and other parts of the games' scripts for this information.
In the second to third paragraphs, describe how they are related to other characters. Then, describe any stories about their history, if there are any. If there is a lot of information, this section might take three paragraphs in total.
Also, references are required. At least five should be used if they are a playable character, with less being acceptable for NPCs.
----
===Supports===
For supports, use the template from the respective game, using the table below to choose the appropriate template. If the character only appears in ''Fire Emblem Gaiden'', this section should be skipped.
'''Special case:''' If the character appears only in ''Seisen no Keifu'', replace <nowiki>==Supports==</nowiki> with <nowiki>==Love growths==</nowiki>.
In case of appearing in ''Seisen no Keifu'' '''and''' ''Thracia 776'', use both sections (<nowiki>==Love growths==</nowiki> and <nowiki>==Supports==</nowiki>) You can see this in [[Fin|Fin's]] page.
{| border="1px solid #{{Color2}};"
!Game
!Template
|-
|''Monshou no Nazo''
|[[Template:SupportSysFE3|SupportSysFE3]]
|-
|''Seisen no Keifu''
|[[Template:LoveSystemGenI|LoveSystemGenI]]<br>[[Template:LoveSystemGenII|LoveSystemGenII]]
|-
|''Thracia 776''
|[[Template:SupportSysFE5|SupportSysFE5]]
|-
|''Fuuin no Tsurugi''
|[[Template:SupportSysGBA|SupportSysGBA]]
|-
|''Blazing Sword''
|[[Template:SupportSysGBA|SupportSysGBA]]
|-
|''The Sacred Stones''
|[[Template:SupportSysGBA|SupportSysGBA]]
|-
|''Path of Radiance''
|[[Template:SupportSysGCN|SupportSysGCN]]
|-
|''Radiant Dawn''
|TBA<br>[[Template:SupportBondFE10|SupportBondFE10]]
|-
|''Shadow Dragon''
|[[Template:SupportSysDS|SupportSysDS]]
|-
|''Shin Monshou no Nazo''
|[[Template:SupportSysDS|SupportSysDS]]<br>TBA
|-
|}
====Support conversations====
For support conversations, which feature in ''Fuuin no Tsurugi'', ''Blazing Sword'', ''The Sacred Stones'', ''Path of Radiance'', and ''Radiant Dawn'', make a subpage named "Character's name/Supports".
EXAMPLE: {{main|Amelia/Supports}}
This page should have sections for each person whom the character can support with. In each of those sections, start with one of the following templates:
{| border="1px solid #{{Color2}};"
!Game
!Template
|-
|''Fuuin no Tsurugi''
|[[Template:SupportDataGBA|SupportDataGBA]]
|-
|''Blazing Sword''
|[[Template:SupportDataGBA|SupportDataGBA]]
|-
|''The Sacred Stones''
|[[Template:SupportDataGBA|SupportDataGBA]]
|-
|''Path of Radiance''
|[[Template:SupportDataGCN|SupportDataGCN]]
|-
|}
Then, order the three conversations per level. First the C level, second the B, and lastly, the A conversation.
In the case of Archanea characters, add a new section to the character's page, <nowiki>==Base conversations==</nowiki>. The reason for this division is that support conversations are not truly related to supports in ''Shin Monshou no Nazo''. Then, make a link to the subpage, which, in this case, is <nowiki>{{main|(Character's name)/Conversations}}</nowiki> and a special template{{hover|*|in the workings}}.
Don't forget to categorize this subpage! Choose the corresponding category/categories:
<pre>
Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: Fuuin no Tsurugi
Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword
Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
Category:Support conversations in Fire Emblem: Shin Monshou no Nazo
</pre>
----
===Endings===
List the character's endings, both regular and paired endings. First goes the regular, then the paired one(s). In the case of ''Fuuin no Tsurugi'', do not forget to list both short (if the character was not chosen for the final chapter) and long (in case they were chosen) endings.
If they appear in two or more games, write the endings under subsections. This is valid for Tellius characters, too; below <nowiki>==Endings==</nowiki>, write <nowiki>===''Radiant Dawn''===</nowiki>, as there are no endings in ''Path of Radiance'', and then put the character's ending.
----
===Death quote===
This section is self-explanatory. Use [[Template:Quote]] for the sentence(s). First goes the normal death quote, and in case the character has a special one, explain where they say it.
EXAMPLE:
{{Quote|No… It’s not… I’m sorry, <player>… Everyone…forgive me…|Lyn in her story.}}
{{Quote|Oh… But I have so… so much… Oh, <player>…|Lyn in Eliwood/Hector's story.}}
----
===Battle quotes===
This is a feature not present in all games. Here go all lines (and, in the case of conversations, choose one line) said by characters in certain battles, such as when fighting against related characters or in final chapters. Use [[Template:Quote]] for this.
----
===Other appearances===
List here all other appearances of the characters outside their games. These could be manga and novel adaptations, anime, ''Super Smash Bros.'' series or even a truly random cameo. It is recommended to create different subsections for each appearance.
----
===Etymology and other languages===
The meaning of the name. A reference should be used, preferably from [http://www.thinkbabynames.com/ ThinkBabyNames.com] or [http://www.behindthename.com/ Behind The Name]. After the reference, the relationship to the character's role or personality should be stated. If there are mythological ties to it, they should be listed after the meaning.
For this section, use [[Template:Names]].
----
===Trivia===
Self-explanatory.
----
===Gallery===
For games with sprites, it is recommended to use this table:
<pre>
{| class="collapsible collapsed" style="width: 75%; border: 1px solid {{Color2}}; background: {{Color1}}; {{round}}" align="center"
|-
! style="border: 1px solid {{Color2}}; widith: 50%; background: {{Color1}}; {{round}}" align="center" | (HERE GO SMALL PORTRAITS) Sprite Gallery
|-
|
{| style="width: 100%; background: {{Color3}}; {{round}}; border: 1px solid {{Color2}}"
| align="center" rowspan="3" | (For the main portrait)
| style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}; border-bottom: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" colspan="(Number of sprites)" | (Character's first class)
| style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}; border-bottom: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" colspan="(Number of sprites)" | (Character's second class)
| style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}; border-bottom: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" colspan="(Number of sprites)" | (Character's third class)
|-
| style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" | (The sprite file)<br>(Link to the weapon's page)
| style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" | (The sprite file)<br>(Link to the weapon's page)
| style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" | (The sprite file)<br>(Link to the weapon's page)
|}
|}
</pre>
EXAMPLE:
{| class="collapsible collapsed" style="width: 75%; border: 1px solid {{Color2}}; background: {{Color1}}; {{round}}" align="center"
|-
! style="border: 1px solid {{Color2}}; widith: 50%; background: {{Color1}}; {{round}}" align="center" | [[File:Small portrait lugh fe06.png]] Sprite Gallery
|-
|
{| style="width: 100%; background: {{Color3}}; {{round}}; border: 1px solid {{Color2}}"

| style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}; border-bottom: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" colspan="1" | [[Mage]]
| style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}; border-bottom: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" colspan="2" | [[Sage]]
|-

|}
|}
<br>
A gallery for the Tellius games is in the making.
----
=== References ===
This is to list all the references used in the article. Every article needs at least one for the etymology. All that goes here is <nowiki>{{ref}}</nowiki>, or <nowiki>{{refbar}}</nowiki> for pages with many references.
