I agree with what you say.  After all, in 'Something About A Sword' the
templar was based out of a town and ventured forth.

Oh, yeah, I'm new to the list so I hope I didn't just say something that's
been covered already.

With the recent discussion of whether or not a Templar can have a base of
operations, and the one a while ago on what Simon's standards are, I see
many
people falling into a common mental trap in gaming.  I call it Vampire
Disorder,
because that's where I saw it most prevalently.  It's the assumption that a
character's behavior is dependent on "what" they are.
Just because the book says that Templars roam the wastes without a permanent
home, and that it saysd they'd judge town A worthy and town B not, doesn't
mean
that every individual Templar is going to do the same thing.  Not everyone
follows the party line.
