Sir William, I have not yet found my headwear.  I'm going for your generic jousting knight, cause well, why not?  Probably just going to go with a beret or else one of those leather headbands.  H/A is not my goal whatsoever  :P

Welcome Lord E.R.

We hope you enjoy your visit here, it ain't Chatham County, NC, but it's as close to the Outremer as we can make it! ;D

Some of us also serve as members of the secret Templar Intelligence agency, so your secret referral source shall remain un-named, but she has risen to a new office position. ;)


The astute will notice that there was no implication as to sex of the informant immediately, but in jest after the fact.

hmmmmm Lets see only two females post here and only one did you recently give new office duhhhhhhhh  :P

Lady ASHley, your diagnosis as to the cause of my involuntary spewing was spot on! An M.D in the Apparent for sure, a B.A. at the very least.

The Council of a Few is actually in session (at the behest of a 'Y' deficient thread member) at this very moment, to award your efforts and endurance with an appropriate title.

So I hope this clarifies or at least spreads the pieces out in a less than jumbled pile for folks to work with.


Excuse me, my planet is calling, they want their idiot back!

Just wanted to assure everyone that the Order of the Hatchet has been holding silent vigils and boiling the h*ll out of holy water since prime mass....it seems a plague is taking hold...this riots disease that Lord Figaro speaks of is running rampant!

Candles are lit for a return to health to you as well Brother Gregory.  It is good to hear your voice even if it's troubled with illness.

Regarding attempts at recruitment, I believe the orders were;

Now get to work! Your Order has a lot of catching up to do!  ;D ;D

Greetings and good day to thee, Knights of the Lord,

I appreciate the detailed information you have provided and believe I am getting close to deciding on my first Templar garb.  You advised me to continue to seek your wisdom on this journey, so I humbly beseech your council once more.

I believe I shall start with the long sleeve robe from either House Morningstar or MR.  I was not able, however, to locate the Templar robe worn by Frere Joseph Lamar on the Morningstar web site.  I just emailed the proprietor, but do not know when he will be able to answer.  Have you heard if it has been discontinued?

Is there a difference between the robe from HM and MR?  It looks to me that the one from HM may have a hood, while the MR does not.  If this is the case, would it be appropriate to wear the robe from MR with a cape?  I ask because if I purchased the HM robe and wore it with a cape, that would be two pieces of garb with hoods attached.   ???

One final note: on the Museum Replicas site, it did not look like the crosses matched on the robe and cape (although there appears to be a tunic with matching cape).

As always, I am grateful for your shared wisdom and hope some day to be worthy of service in this Order.

Regards,
Sir Martin

Master of the virtual Temple....pleeeeze.  Comments such as this will no doubt discourage what promises to be a growing flock!
