Knights Templar

The Temple Knights are a armed branch of the Murond Glabados Church in Final Fantasy Tactics led by Vormav Tingel. Most of them are under the control of or in league with the Lucavi demons, and the others are unaware that they are in fact serving the Lucavi (such as Vormav's son, Izlude). When Ramza Beoulve is declared a heretic after stumbling onto the Lucavi plot, the Temple Knights do everything in their power to keep Ramza from interfering in their plan to resurrect Altima.

Despite the failure of most of the Lucavi, three Temple Knights including Vormav learn the location of the portal to Murond Death City, where Saint Ajora Glabados, Altima's human host, was buried. One of them opens the portal and stays behind to guard it while the other two proceed forward. Ramza arrives and dispatches the first knight, making it through the portal where he kills the second. He then chases Vormav to the Graveyard of Airships, where the Temple Knight Leader transforms into the Lucavi Hashmalum in an attempt to sacrifice Ramza to help revive Altima. Ultimately, however, it is Hashmalum that is destined to be a sacrifice as he realizes Ramza is too strong and takes his own life to trigger Altima's resurrection.
