Template:MultiBox
From Unofficial Handbook of the Virtue Universe
The MultiBox is a template project based on the VillainBox and HeroBox templates by Eisregen, and the ModBox templates by AlwaysAPrice in an effort to create uniform information boxes for instances of Multiple Incarnations and Duos. This particular MultiBox template fragment is the most basic, intended as the base for a character or characters of a neutral, anti-hero, or civilian background.

Concept
On the Virtue server it is not uncommon for players to want to continue a character's story beyond level 50, carrying that same character through to alternate skills and abilities. Perhaps these long term characters have taken on new mutations, are perfecting a new technology, or simply wish to explore alternate forms of combat since mastering their original skill sets. There are also those who do not fit the black and white concepts of heroes and villains, perhaps spanning incarnations on either side of the fence. The MultiBox is intended for such characters.
The MultiBox is an effort to enable users in maintaining a uniform look to the Unofficial Handbook of the Virtue Universe by keeping in step with the general appearance of the two most popular information boxes -- VillainBox and HeroBox -- while taking on the wonderful flexibility of the dynamic ModBox.
Using The MultiBox
{{MultiBox}} |} | While upon first glance the MultiBox may come off as daunting, it is in actuality a rather simple case of nesting the Modules in the MultiBox's item slots. This allows you to choose the order modules appear in, use modules more than once, omit unwanted modules, and even mix module color varieties. To the left is the bare bones |
Available Modules
MultiBox/Header
Based on the original info box's top portion, the Header allows you to
MultiBox/Basic
MultiBox/Basics
MultiBox/BasicsPlay
MultiBox/Core
The Core is a large component containing all of the Personal, Biographical, Powers, Abilities, Equipment, and Footnote information in one large chunk. This was done so those who do want to maintain all the original information
