The Holy Knights, also known as the Templars, Temple Knights, or Knight Templars, were an ancient order of knights tied closely to the crusades and were disbanded in 1312 by order of the Pope.
"Origin: Tokyo. Holy knights that fight heathens. The knight order was originally created for defense. Now, however, they obey all orders to spread the Messian Faith."

Holy Knights are part of the defensive forces of the Order of Messiah.
