Section Explanation
Synopsis
The Synopsis section gives a brief summary of a novel's beginning plot or story. For brevity and to avoid plot spoilers, the synopsis should detail no more than a basic summary of the novel's opening exposition and initial conflict while providing a link to its full plot summary page, unless the story is too short to warrant having a separate plot summary. Plot summaries are linked to using Template:SeePlot, following the initial synopsis.
Listings
Novel pages only need have a character listing (includes Demons, Personas, Shadows). The character listing must be its own page and its link formatted as ===[[Characters in {{PAGENAME}}|Characters]]===. The actual listing should not be present on the novel page itself for brevity, unless there are too few characters to warrant having a separate list page.
