Cloned Template:Character Infobox to User:Kazinsal/Charinfo and added optional parameters "imagesize" (allows specification of the width of the image to be used), "caption" (adds a centered caption below the image), "gender" (self-explanatory), and "status" (Alive, Deceased, MIA, etc.). I've put them all on a personal template as not to disturb pages that use the current template, but with permission, I would like to merge the changes into the global Character Infobox template. There's an example of it in action on both the template page and on the page for Harold Kane.
