We're trying that OOC plotting thing

[judgemewhole]

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.

Blood mage plan

[judgemewhole]

So post-Montemps and everything that has happened there, Norrington would be coming up with a new plan on how the possibility of dealing with blood mages in their ranks, and protecting the Inquisition, all of it, from the infiltration of blood mages should be put into place immediately.

I have some ideas on it - but anyone who can help with the plotting? I would be grateful.

Here's what I have so far.

- Mages are checked by their own by any telltale scars that are common place with blood magic.
- Experimental magic will be, and should be, supervised with one templar and one senior mage any possible corruption in using blood magic. No miracle magic here, thank you.
- All books on blood magic should be turned over to the senior enchanters AND only allowed out to mages who have been cleared for research purposes only.
- This goes without saying but any blood mage found will immediately be executed if they have done harm to anyone else through blood magic, either by spell or by sacrifice. Any blood mage that has strictly self-harmed and simply used blood to augment their own abilities without harming others, will be put under immediate templar supervision so they will not do it again. Ever.
