Character Titles, City Epithets
A brief introduction where applicable in common text. An overview, summary, or other very short bit of critical information.
A quote from someone opinionated, if time allows- Signature in Subscript
Header Two for Significant Sections
Information can be presented either in order of importance or chronological - either the broadest and simplest scale into the narrowest, or the past up to the present. Content may be presented with limited omniscience, and tagged by relevant characters. Paragraphs should be indented.
A Second Section Option
When a piece is longer or to help emphasize a larger portion, the drop cap may be used to offset the rest of the text. Use this sparingly, only ever in the first paragraph of the section, and only with capital letters. All text aligned left, though columns may be used to add images. No indentation necessary in this format. A clear single line of space should be placed above and below quotes. No additional lines necessary after a header.
An Interjection by another opinionated party, or the original author, can help keep things light.Again in subscript -
Altering the left and right alignments of quotes will aid in clarifying whom is speaking, when multiple voices make themselves heard. Quotes may contain no longer than two sentence intervals, and articles should not devolve. If more needs to be said, the phrasing in the quotation should be replaced with a link to an attached note of prose, or a second article.
Subsections are in Header Three
This keeps them from being quite as disruptive, but still draws attention and adds color to an article. Subsections will likely not be used often, but are a good option to keep in mind.
The above image is the placeholder for any art that needs to be placed, such as character portraits. Credit for the base image goes to Doriana Dream, via Unsplash, though I have altered it to include the overlaid text. A second placeholder is available for items or drawings that would need to be retrieved from the archives.
