Module:ChapChars
From Fire Emblem Wiki, your source on Fire Emblem information. By fans, for fans.
Contains three functions for use with {{ChapChars}}: newunits
manages the new unit tables, and oldunits
manages the required, available, and undeployable character sections; additionally, returning
is a deprecated function that is no longer used.
