Red Templars

Through infomining, it can be ascertained that the Talos Cult presented in Morrowind were originally a slightly different group called the Red Templars, who were originated in some RuneQuest campaigns set in Tamriel during Morrowind's early development, run by Michael Kirkbride. Kirkbride credits Sun Dome Templars of RuneQuest as inspiration. The Red Templars themselves were a cult of psycho-crusaders within the Imperial Legion who "drank the blood of Talos to get short-term martial shouting powers." The rest of the Legion and Elder Council hated the Red Templars, and so they were shoved off to places like Morrowind. The Templars were supposedly tied into the chain of command within the Legion, but in truth, the Templars didn't take orders from anyone but themselves. There was an idea thrown out there during a forum roleplay that the Templars maintained a system of "Blood Dome Temples" across Tamriel, with each Temple being lead by a "Head Red." One such Temple was in Balmora. During the actual development of Morrowind, the Red Templars concept became the Templars of the Sons of Talos, before inferably being written into the Talos Cult. The armor made for the Templars was eventually retooled for use across the entire Legion, and yet the armor is still referred to as Imperial Templar Armor, mainly used by higher ups within the Legion -- and no context is provided on what wearing Templar Armor denotes within the Imperial Legion.
