Black Templars Neophytes are not organised into a separate Scout Company like other Chapters. Instead, they receive their training from an individual [[Initiate]] who teaches by example. Because of this loose hierarchy, such Neophytes can be a part of any Black Templars Squad as necessary.

Yes, we know what you are thinking. "Wait a minute. Isn't an Initiate, by definition, a new recruit in-training? [[Wat|So why the fuck are the new recruits training the ''new recruits''!?]]" Well, you see dear boys and girls, the Black Templars are an [[RAGE|eccentric bunch]] and some may say, [[Space Wolves|borderline illiterate.]] To them, an Initiate is actually what most Space Marines would call their [[Tactical Squad]]. So yes, those [[Pretend|'new recruits']] called Initiates are, in fact, de facto [[Lolwut|<u>'''''NOT'''''</u>]] initiates by any normal definition. If anything, the Black Templars, an elite military force, literally runs off a buddy system you would expect [[Derp|from kindergarten.]] [[Fail|Makes you wanna jump off a cliff right?]]

The fuck buddies of the chapter.

So you know how a Neophyte is essentially a Space Marine in training? You know, the guys who are regulated to Scouts? Well, the Black Templars use their Neophytes differently because fuck you G-Man! We do what we feel like doing!
