To use this page type's boilerplate, select "Item" under "Content". This boilerplate should be used for consumable items (such as recovery, battle, and stat-increasing items), resale items, materials, and notable key items. For recurring equipment, use the Equipment Page boilerplate.

Category:Items is included in the boilerplate as a placeholder category, however this should be replaced by specific Items in Game Title subcategories where possible, as per the categories guidelines. The Items category is only intended to list the specific subcategories.


  • Profile — The Profile section describes the item's qualities, including its physical appearance or its in-universe or story significance. This section can also include developer design notes.
  • Gameplay — The Gameplay section documents the item's detailed information, between dedicated subsections. If an item has only appeared in non-game media, omit these sections.
  • Effect — This covers the item's effects or purpose, usage, pricing, and carrying capacity stock by game using Template:ItemEfct.
Complex explanations of an item's effect mechanics should not be explained in the template. If an item's full effects would require a lengthy explanation, a Mechanics section should be added as the next subsection.
  • Mechanics — This subsection should only be added to a page if deemed necessary, and as such is not included in the boilerplate code. This subsection covers in-depth explanations of an item's effect mechanics, such as statistical influences, mathematical calculations, etc. If more than one game requires a mechanic breakdown, then each game should be given its own subsection.
  • Obtaining — This covers where the item can be found or bought by using Template:ItemLoc. Key items do not require this template and instead can have a brief explanation of how they are obtained.
  • Descriptions — This documents the item's in-game descriptions using Template:GameDesc. For games that were not officially localized, use the original Japanese descriptions, preferably paired with Template:DescTransl for translations.
  • Audio Drama Appearances — If the item has appeared in any audio dramas, this section covers that. Otherwise, omit this section if none.
  • Novel Appearances — If the item has appeared in any novels or short stories, this section covers that. Otherwise, omit this section if none.
  • Anime Appearances — If the item has appeared in any animated media, including televised anime series, movies, or OVAs, this section covers that. Otherwise, omit this section if none.
  • Manga Appearances — If the item has appeared in any manga, this section covers that. Otherwise, omit this section if none.
  • Other Appearances — This section is reserved for any crossover or cameo appearances the item has made outside of Megami Tensei media. This can include media appearances in Atlus's or Sega's other intellectual properties (such as Etrian Odyssey), or in media created by other companies (such as Nintendo's Super Smash Bros.). Otherwise, omit this section if none.
