Use

This is for character articles. You should remember that there are things you would normally think would apply to the {{item infobox}}. However, could it for any reason be counted as a character, the character infobox prevails, as it allows for more possibilities.

If you do not have an image or there is no image available of the character, e.g. a pseudocharacter like Obliteron, use the No Character Image.png image.
