	{{DLog~~\|Freaky\|Chungus\|wowowowowowowowowowoowowow}}~~		'''<code>DLog</code> formats a single in-character "D's LOG" lore entry — a styled line giving a subject's name and a "bypass state" description, used for boss/entity lore on dungeon pages.'''
			__TOC__

	<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="overflow: auto;">{{DLog\|~~Freaky~~\|~~Chungus~~\|~~wowowowowowowowowowoowowow~~}}</syntaxhighlight>		== Overview ==
			This template prints one stylised log line in the form <code>[D's <type> LOG: <subject>] BYPASS STATE: <text></code>, wrapped in a <code>dlog</code> styled box. It is the recurring "data log" flavour element used across dungeon/boss pages such as [[Anubis Lair]], [[Abyss Of Demons]], [[Aurora Sanctum]] and [[Celestial's Province: Part 1]] to reveal (or redact, with <code>???</code>) lore about each boss.

			== Parameters ==
			{\| class="wikitable"
			! Parameter !! Required? !! What it does !! Example
			\|-
			\| <code>1</code> (first unnamed) \|\| Optional in practice \|\| The "log type" word shown between <code>D's</code> and <code>LOG</code>. In current usage this is left blank, giving <code>[D's LOG: ...]</code>. Provide a word to label the log. \|\| (usually empty)
			\|-
			\| <code>2</code> (second unnamed) \|\| Required \|\| The subject of the log — typically the boss/entity name shown after <code>LOG:</code>. \|\| <code>Kurvaros</code>
			\|-
			\| <code>3</code> (third unnamed) \|\| Required \|\| The "BYPASS STATE" text — the lore body, or <code>???</code> / <code>Collecting Data...</code> when redacted. \|\| <code>???</code>
			\|}

			== How to use ==
			1. The three values are positional (unnamed), separated by <code>\|</code>, in this order: log type, subject, bypass-state text.
			2. In nearly all live uses the first value is left '''empty''' — note the double pipe right after the template name: <code>{{DLog\|\|Kurvaros\|???}}</code>. The empty slot is the log type.
			3. Put the entity/boss name as the second value.
			4. Put the lore (or a redaction placeholder like <code>???</code> or <code>Collecting Data...</code>) as the third value. Long prose is fine here.
			5. Because the values are positional, do not skip a pipe — every entry needs all three slots even if the first is blank.

			== Copy this ==
			<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="overflow:auto;">
			{{DLog\|\|subject\|bypass state text}}
			</syntaxhighlight>

			== Example ==
			{{DLog\|\|Valerion\|In a kingdom ravaged by eternal night, the Voided King raised a single knight out of the rust to protect the fading light that remained.}}

			<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="overflow:auto;">
			{{DLog\|\|Valerion\|In a kingdom ravaged by eternal night, the Voided King raised a single knight out of the rust to protect the fading light that remained.}}
			</syntaxhighlight>

			== Tips & notes ==
			* The leading double pipe (<code>\|\|</code>) is intentional — it leaves the log-type slot empty, which is how every current page uses it. If you supply a first value, it appears as <code>[D's <value> LOG: ...]</code>.
			* The "D" in the output is rendered with heavy combining/glitch characters by the template; you do not type those yourself.
			* For unrevealed lore the convention is to use <code>???</code> (or <code>Collecting Data...</code>) as the third value.
			* Parameters 2 and 3 are required by the template's source (they use <code>{{{2}}}</code> / <code>{{{3}}}</code> with no default); omitting them shows the raw <code>{{{2}}}</code>/<code>{{{3}}}</code> placeholder text.
			* Related: dungeon/boss page layout templates and {{tl\|Sound}} (voice-line audio buttons that often sit beside these logs).
