Character Links in Relations
The relations field can include links to other characters. Use the AutoLink template or regular MediaWiki links:

Player Links
The player field automatically creates links to player pages using the AutoLink template.
This template uses CSS variables that automatically adapt to the Citizen skin's light/dark theme.
