- presence-tracks: The container for the Presence Tracks.
There are two mechanisms to populate this. The simple approach is to use the specific energy and card tracks as demonstrated by the 'board_front' example. If you wish to produce a more complex layout then you'll need to use the table-based approach demonstrated by the 'board_front_serpent_style' example.
- energy-track: The entire Energy Track
- energy-track values: The actual values that will be used to create the Energy Track. See 'Supported Presence Track Options'
- banner: Artwork behind the presence track can be added with the banner="example.png". The artwork should be in the same folder as the html
- banner-v-scale: Allows you to stretch your banner artwork vertically
- Example: <energy-track banner="example2.png" banner-v-scale="50%" values="1,isolate,2,text(custom text here),3,gain-card-pay-2,4+reclaim-one"></energy-track>
- card-play-track: The entire Card Play Track
- card-play-track values: The actual values that will be used to create the Card Play Track. See 'Supported Presence Track Options'
- banner: Artwork behind the presence track can be added with the banner="example.png". The artwork should be in the same folder as the html
- banner-v-scale: Allows you to stretch your banner artwork vertically
- Example: *<card-play-track banner="example2.png" banner-v-scale="50%" values="1,star,gain-card-pay-2,isolate,markerplus,fire+markerplus,5+reclaim-one,fire+reclaim-one"></card-play-track>
- special presence track options (Finder/Serpent): For Serpent/Finder style boards, there are two options:
- Wrap your presence node options in middle() to have them appear in the middle of the tracks. Only do this to energy track nodes.
- Example: <energy-track values="1,fire,any,reclaim-one,middle(earth),6,any,12"></energy-track>
- HTML <presence-table> as seen in the Finder example board HTML.
- An html table that allows more flexible positioning of nodes. Individual presence track options are specified within the
<td>table cells. Use in energy track to mark presence track spots you want to appear in the middle. The available options are exactly the same as described for the energy and card-play tracks above, with the exception that integer values must be prefixed with with 'card' or 'energy'. For example 'card1' means 1 card play, 'energy2' means 2 energy, etc.

- innate-powers: The container for the Innate Powers
- quick-innate-power: The container for a single Innate Power. Don't change this heading. Power speed is set below.
- name: The name of the Innate Power
- speed: Either "fast" or "slow"
- range: The range of the innate. Uses special syntax:
- For no range (such as Spirit targeting powers), type "none".
- For range, use an icon (if needed) + an integer separated by a comma. Examples:
- 0
- 1
- sacred-site,2
- wetland-presence,1
- target: The target of the innate. Unlike range, this uses the same HTML code as the rest of the template, so you can use any icons and the shorthand syntax (ie. {dahan}).
- target-title: Either "TARGET" or "TARGET LAND"
- note: allows adding notes to the top of the innate (See Volcano Looming High or Lure of the Deep Wilderness as an example). This may not appear in your version, so simply add it (see example spirits).
- level: Contains the information for one level of an Innate Power. The effect of the power sites between the level tags. Includes a few options:
- threshold: Contains the threshold informatioin. Can include:
- Elements: 1-plant,2-fire
- Icons: 2-wilds
- Energy Costs: cost-2
- Example: Volcano: <level threshold="3-fire,cost-2"> or Many Minds: <level threshold="1-air,2-animal,2-beasts">
- Other Cost w/ custom icon: cost(custom1)-1 or cost(dahan)-2. Icon will appear with '-x' where x is the number you use.
- Example: Spreading Rot: <level threshold="2-moon,3-water,2-animal,2-cost(custom1)">Add 1 {disease}.</level>
- Or: or
- Example: Trickster: <level threshold="3-sun,OR,3-fire">
- long: if you add 'long' to the level tag, it will allow the description to spill over into the next column (like Volcano)
- Example: Volcano: <level threshold="5-fire,3-air,5-earth,10-destroyed-presence" long>
- text: if you add 'text' to the level tag, it will ignore the thresholds and create a line of just text using the text between the tags
- threshold: Contains the threshold informatioin. Can include:
- To achieve 'for each element' effects, use the notation {element, #}.
- Example: Serpent's Second Innate, Second Level: <level threshold="2-moon,2-earth">For each {moon,2} {earth,2}, 2 {fear} and push 1 {town}.</level>
