We're trying that OOC plotting thing

All right, what would all of the Templars and the advisers think of the New Templar Order, instead of melting into the Inquisition, instead offer open enrollment to any one of any creed or background as long as they swore an oath to the Inquisition, aka the Divine's Last Mandate and the true path of the Chantry?

Edit

And now, with better clarification on the Templar's role in Thedas, thanks to Varric, and Cassandra's players, as well as TheRedPenguin on Plurk, NEW plotting idea.

Norrington is coming back from Montemps with two goals - securing Skyhold against the dangers of blood magic with a plan, and finding where the red templars are getting their lyrium so they can cut them off. Per previous CR, he is going to be joining his voice more loudly with the loyalist mages that they need further Templar involvement with the mages - not only for the rest of the Inquisition but for the safety of the mages themselves from the dangers of mind control by the mages.

He is going to have a plan, however, before he goes to the mage council. I, the mun, need some help formulating that plan. Any ideas or suggestions would be welcome. I'll put a post below everything else for people to respond to.

kane would latch onto this last notion, at least.

the templar order is full of strong and admirable ideals, and even if they don't have jurisdiction over the mages in skyhold (he sees them under the "protection" of the inquisition while the circles are disbanded) due to not having any real oversight (and considering some of the abuses he's witnessed, this is understandable), there are still a lot of things they can do to remind everyone what templars stand for -- they're demon-killing, blood mage hunting defenders of peace.

maybe it's time to set aside politics for a while and get back to the roots.
