Template documentation

Display a race description quote accompanied by the corresponding icon.

This template is a subtype of {{Quote fancy}}.

Usage

This template has a table of all the race quotes in the game extracted directly from the game files so the only required parameter is the name of the race. On the race pages themselves, you can use {{PAGENAME}} as the parameter to this template. For the image, it uses Race <race>.png which exist for the player-selectable races and falls back to Portrait <race>.png for everything else.

Alternatively, the quote and image can be overridden with the parameters quote and image. The option image = none may be preferred for races without dedicated icons.
