The Knights of the Temple of the Shrike have reappeared in Ketchelbank after yet another long absence. None know where they went or why. It appears that their first move since returning is to strike up a friendship with The Malton Zookeepers and make amends for past differences. In the past the Knights were led by the Trinity, The Lion, The Tiger or The Bear, but now with the world as it is, the group is led by "The One". It is said "The One" has special powers and hears the knowledge of the living and passes it on to the followers of the Shrike. Many Knights also had religious titles such as Cardinal, Arch Bishop and Bishop. The Knights were once a Pker group, but since the arrival of "The One" the group has seen the Light of the Knowledge of the Living and understands harmony among the survivor groups and undead hordes will be the only way to find Truth.

What is known about the Knights is that they are furiously loyal to the Shrike.(credit to Dans Simmons for his wonderful stories) All members are easily identified by the Red Cross they wear. It is a group open to both Humans and Zombies. They believe in The philosophy of pleasure and pain and members are forbidden to take Brain Rot; as their core belief is in the Love of a Thousand Rebirths. They were also known for their Tag of Lions and Tigers and Bears.

Philosophy

The Knights of the Temple of the Shrike’s underlying belief is that “Life likes life and the universe will always move towards more life.” They also believe that all things are connected through the “Void Which Binds” also known as the “Lions and Tigers and Bears”, they believe in the resurrection of the “cruciform” and revivification and this is why both humans and zombies are allowed. Because of the duality of their nature Heal/Harm Human Knights are general consider too be higher in the Favor of the Shrike as they can heal other whereas Zombie Knights can only heal themselves. The Knights believe firmly in the authority of "The One" and His interpretations of the Knowledge of the Living He receives.
