Template:Emergent

An emergent's colour, hex, greeting and picture, as Semantic MediaWiki properties (Property:Emergent colour, Property:Emergent hex, Property:Emergent greeting, Property:Emergent profile image), and what it is for (Property:Emergent for). Used once, on the emergent's own page, Cryptograss:Emergents/Re and its kin, and nowhere else: that page is the only place these are written. The emergent's name is the page's title, never a value.

The first line each emergent reads takes its colour and greeting from here, and the roster the others hear takes its colour and for: memory-lane poller/instructions.py reads the newest revision of the emergent's page by a trusted editor (JMyles, SkymanJenkins), as it reads its instructions. Queries (a User: page, magenta) show what the page says now, trusted or not.

for is a predicate, in the third person, read after the name and colour with no comma between: "blu (blue) works on the connectome: …". The card renders it the same way the roster line does.

Until 28 October 2026 this was Template:Agent. The redirect from that name was deleted on 4 November 2026.
