Calling the Templar a maestro of defense wouldn’t be far from the truth, but one shouldn’t mistake its only purpose to be an Atreian punching bag. With their high defense and various shield skills, Templars can also inflict some serious damage on their opponents. Depending on the situation, a Templar can swap a sword or mace (and shield) for a greatsword. While its ability to deal damage may be lower when compared to the Gladiator, it would be unwise to ignore the Templar’s powerful attacks.
 Both the Elysean and Asmodian Templars follow the teachings of Nezekan, the Lord of Justice.
