List of Minor or Background Characters
Currently an experiment/proof of concept
This page is for corralling minor and background characters to keep the clutter down in various lists and categories.
Rule of thumb for what goes here: if everything we know about a character can be summed up in two sentences or less, they should go here. If it takes more words than that to capture what we know about them, they get their own page. Thus, even though Holly never appears in person on the page, since we know a lot more than two sentences about her, she gets her on page. On the other hand, even if a character appears in three books, if across those books all we know is something like "Seersa, lives on Selnor, is a nurse" or something, they go here. Characters who get more info added in later books can be removed from here and split off onto their own pages.
If you want to mention a character on another page and include a link, you can just link from there to here, as in [[Minor or Background Characters |McCrearty]].
Click on a column to sort by it. If you want to sort by a second column, sort by the first, then shift-click on the second column.
