A separate page for non-canon characters?
Judging from the list, if all characters from fanmade campaigns were to be added, they'd literally engulf the canon ones. It may be a good idea, eventually, to create a dedicated page for said persons, or let each fanmade continuity have their own page. - Mobius on October 25th, 2020 (11:07 UTC).
