Unlike other characters in the series, he isn't known to represent any nation, but rather a Christian military order. No colour illustrations exist of him. The Knights Templar was established to provide assistance and escort to Christian pilgrims on their pilgrimages to the Holy Land, and as such, is indicated to have a very helpful and friendly disposition. He continued to work for the Christian faith even after losing the Holy Land. He is said to be good at making money, which may have been what kept him working for the faith after this. Additional notes in the (No Longer Copy) Book of History Stuff I Really Draw indicate that because the order was so powerful and talented at what they did, people began picking on them and calling them heretics. After a series of scandals they were essentially dissolved with members executed and possessions confiscated. Himaruya indicated that they were just too good at making money, and wonders if they would have been better off acting like the Teutonic Knights. It is unclear whether or not the Knights Templar personification was executed along with his members.
