Here's some test code for the Character Infobox. There are four totally customizable fields in this one, since everyone seems to have a different conception of what's important to their character. As you can see in the Salusa example, you have a bit of flexibility with regards to field length. Captions are right-justified and small, Fields are centered.

Since by now you probably know how to fill one of these out, the sample is totally blank. Have fun.


{{Infobox_Character |

caption2= |
field2= |
caption3= |
field3= |
caption4= |
