Template:Spell Definition

Summary

Defines a spell by saving its details to the database for retrieval on other pages using the #load mechanism.

It also adds the page to certain categories, depending on its type:

For type=blight: {{NS_CATEGORY}}-Blight-Diseases
For type=disease: {{NS_CATEGORY}}-Diseases
Otherwise: {{NS_CATEGORY}}-Spells and {{NS_CATEGORY}}-Spells-{{{school}}}

Regardless of type, it also adds the page to: Redirects to Broader Subjects.

Apart from the above categories, the template produces no output.
