(the dynamic/automatic added rows don't work and i do not know how to make them work, they are commented out so that the template is fine to be applied to NPC pages, if someone can fix the spaghetti code of WikiMedia and make it work, feel free to do so)
(only forced or optional categories now)

Description

Create an attractive "info card" for NPCs. This is another way to liven up the pages. It also provides a consistent "at a glance" information box with vital information that is consistent across all creatures. Note that the goal is not to cover everything that can fit into the card, as that is in the body of the article. If you have any suggestions for what should/could go in the infobox, please comment on the Talk page or the author's talk page. This template will have more parameters, but is awaiting Wiki Extensions.

Automatic categories
type - shows the race of the NPC
vendor - will display if players can buy/sell from NPC
skill trainer - will display if NPC is a skill trainer
