The Templars of Twilight were a faction of force users that believed that the force was not split into a light and dark side, but that it wished to be used as a whole and that the Jedi and Sith inbalanced it by using only part of it. Unlike the Jedi, who were mostly a monastic order, The Templars of Twilight were a dual order. They devoted themselves to similar tenets as a monastic, but also had a military side to them, having their own self sustaining military factions.
