Inspiration
The Knights Templars were the earliest founders of the military orders, and are the type on which the others are modelled.
Their military skills made them formidable opponents in battle, often tipping the scales in combat.
Templars were often the advance shock troops in key battles of the Crusades, as the heavily armored knights on their warhorses would set out to charge at the enemy, ahead of the main army bodies, in an attempt to break opposition lines.
Their extensive wealth and the secretive nature of their order's rites and ceremonies bred suspicion and envy among both secular and religious leaders.
* On the 13th of October in 1307, a Friday, the king of France, in collaboration with the pope and the Catholic Church leadership, confiscated all of the wealth and property of the organization, arrested every single Templar Knight, and then had them put to death. This event is why Friday the 13th is considered an unlucky day.
