Summary[edit]

This template provides a uniform look for all in-game location pages, and should be used at the top of the pages for any dungeons, settlements, campsites, houses, or other locations. It automatically fills in the breadcrumb trails, primary image, and primary description. The description is also made available for other templates, such as Place Link.

Parameters[edit]

Note that several parameters are case-insensitive for backwards compatibility. Lower-case parameters are customary for templates. Parameters marked as being "autolinked" can be provided either as links or plain text and will convert plain text to links.
