Knights Templar

About
Per tradition in the Patch Tribe, the ten officiants of the Shaman Fight convert into followers of the new Shaman King. After Fra YVS won in AD 1500, the officiants became the Knights Templar, a group of armored holy warriors. Despite becoming his followers, none of them approved of his underhanded methods of winning the tournament, such as paying his subordinates and blackmailing his opponents.

During the 500 years in the Great Spirit, they became a biker gang and opened the bar, Patcy Cat.

For the Flower of Maize, the Knights Templar were given physical form through Dimensional Shifting, since resurrection is forbidden. Because of this, they simply return to their commune when they are killed.
