Pathfinder Second Edition content
This article covers a term or subject that is relevant to the Pathfinder campaign setting only in the context of Pathfinder Second Edition or Pathfinder Lost Omens.

{{Archetype}} is for use in any article about a Pathfinder Second Edition archetype directly related to the Pathfinder campaign setting.

The recommended image size is a width of 250px so that it will completely fill the infobox without increasing its size, and the recommended height is 300px so that tall images will not consume an excess of space.

This template is based upon the Forgotten Realms Wiki Creature Template.

For Pathfinder First Edition mechanical archetypes with canon connections, consider {{Organization}} or do not use an infobox.

Usage

{{Archetype
| image       = <!-- [[File:...|x300px|Alt text.]] -->
| name        = 
| ancestries  = 
| classes     = 
| traits      = {{2eTrait|...}}
| region      = 
| affiliation = 
| imagesof    = 
| source      = 
| page        = 
}}

Example

{{Archetype
| image       = [[File:Starlit sentinel.webp|x300px|A starlit sentinel.]]
| name        = Starlit sentinel
| ancestries  = Any
| classes     = Any
