This template replicates the style of an AD&D 1e adventure module, with separate sections for dialogue and notes.
Usage
Include just once at the top of the page the following two lines: {{Special:Whatlinkshere/{{BASEPAGENAME}}}} [[Category:CAMPAIGN NAME]] * Note that if you dont you'll see the what links here repeated for every {{Location}} instead of just once for the page as desired. From this point forward simply use the {{Location}} template with the parameters identified below for each portion of text you want to read aloud.
{{Location | name = Location Name | dialog = Description to be read to players... | notes = Notes for the Dungeon Master... }}
<templatedata> {
"params": { "name": { "label": "Location Name", "type": "string", "description": "The name of the location.", "required": false }, "dialog": { "label": "Dialog", "type": "string", "description": "The description to be read to the players.", "required": true }, "notes": { "label": "Notes", "type": "string", "description": "Notes for the Dungeon Master.", "required": false } }, "description": "Template to replicate the style of an AD&D 1e adventure module, with separate sections for dialogue and notes, including an optional location name."
} </templatedata>
Font information sourced from: discussions on RPG forums and the TSR & WotC Font FAQ, specifically noting the frequent use of Futura, Helvetica, and Avant Garde in AD&D 1st Edition publications. While exact fonts may vary, these are strongly associated with the era's aesthetic.
