Character: James Lysander Norrington (Pirates of the Caribbean AU) Occupation/Role: Knight Commander of the New Templar Order, loyal soldier of the Inquisition A/R/N/M: 31/Human/Free Marcher/On the opposite end of the mage scale. Elevator Pitch: Fierce blood mage hunter and loyal to the Chantry Templar trying to rebuild the Order into something worthy of honor and respect. Opinions: Mages: If they are going to be out on their own, so be it. However their educational program best be considerable and they should know that any blood mages or dangerous rogues will be taken out with extreme prejudice. They want to be free, fine, just ... don't be useless. Do something good. You have the power to make real positive change. Magic was meant to serve man not rule over him. First Enchanter Lydia should be your example. Elves: He would truly like to know why no elf has never been made a Templar, or what the Dalish equivalent of the Templar order is. Clearly their mages are less of a danger. How is that? What can the Templars learn from them? Sure they worship weird gods but at least they worship something. Dwarves: Great warriors, defenders from the bottomless pit of darkspawn, giver of lyrium. What's not to like? And they worship something. Go them. Magisters: ... Oh he KNOWS most of you use blood magic. He will dispel your f'ing faces off before he cuts off your heads. Hate Magisters. Blood Mages: YOU WILL ALL DIE. Red Templars: Oh brothers and sisters ... how far have you fallen? Wardens: Okay, you all want to talk about someone working without any kind of oversight? What about THOSE guys? Sigh. They end blights. Amazing warriors, disciplined mages. Does secretly admire. Would subscribe to their newsletter. Qunari: ... they're like Templars. But bigger. And ... more insanely devout. Will watch warily.
Where They've Been: Norrington and his men are from the Free Marchers, more specifically the Ostwick Circle, which everyone will agree was probably the biggest socialist circle of all. After that DAMNED ROGUE APPRENCTICE WHO NORRINGTON WILL HUNT DOWN killed the First Enchanter (sob) and Knight Commander Swann (sooooob). Since then has been traveling through most parts of Thedas trying to hunt down that damned rogue apprentice to avenge the death of his Circle parents. Going to the Inquisition now because that's where the real Chantry is. Future Plans: Norrington is going to work on the Templar Representation, training both his people and Cade and any other Templar in either learning how to fight magic or how to become better at it. CR Desires: Figure all the positive and negative CR you can manage. Anyone who wants to talk about the Chantry, anyone who wants to try and get Norrington to actually laugh (seriously his face might be stuck that way.). I'll take the negative CR as well - he's a Templar! - but I would love to build that to be begrudging respect on both sides. Anything Else:
