Crime Template

A preconceived perception on the part of police investigators and detectives of a crime scenario or phenomenon based on past cases in which investigators became aware of a new type of scenario or phenomenon that was previously unknown to them but reaveal, being applied to a current case with similar elements and assumed to be identical to previous cases based on

past cases, statistics, personal assumptions, public opinion, hunches and other factors and then persued as such without objectivity or taking into account that although seeming similar the scenario may not be identical.

templationship

A composition of the words "temporary" and "relationship". It is when two, or more parties agrees that a relationship should only be temporary.

As opposed to most people, who are serial monogamists, people who agree to a templationship are aware about their situation.

It is ideal when you know you're not suited or compatible for long term, but you have intense chemistry and enjoy spending time with each other. Templationships are mostly exclusive in nature, but can also not be. It is defined by the people agreeing to it.

Templars

In the fictional story of the game Assassin's Creed and it's sequels the Templars are a near thousand year old Christian group of knights, politicians, and other high authority figures (as well as civilians) who's goal is for a "better world". Though their means of doing so are questionable, as is their actual "goal" in the first place. The Templars were political juggernauts in much of the 12th century and renaissance.

They are the sworn enemy of the Assassin Order, who, despite their name, are more or less the peace keepers in this ongoing war. The Templars truly long for world domination using ancient artifacts believed (and in the story eventually proven) to hold mystical powers.

The Templars are based on, and infact are the Knights Templar, a Christian band of knights from the 12th century. As well as their rivals the Assassin Order being based on the real life band of assassins known as the Hashashin (Hashashin believed to be the word "assassin" came from). In all reality these 2 groups did have their own bit of history together but, were never arch rivals nor was one or the other the bad guy. The Knights Templar were most likely the more noble of the groups, but that's fairly debatable.
