Neo-Templars

The Neo-Templars are a radical organization bent on eradicating pluses worldwide, proclaming them to be servants of Satan that plan to end all humanity. They consist of both religious fanatics and racist bigots with the common goal of, at all costs, destroying pluses through whatever methods they have available. The location of their headquarters in Hinan-sho, Japan is currently unverified, but is confirmed to be highly active.

Leaders:

Apostles are the diplomats and main workforce of the Templars, the nonviolent equivalent of the battle-focused Canonists. Always busy and in hectic order, they move quickly to carry out their commands whether it is reconnaissance, negotiations, or the organization of paperwork.

Archbishops oversee and direct the actions of the Templars, putting lesser ranked pawns into their places as they see fit in order to advance their plans.

Chaplains are the military organizers, performing rallying speeches and if need be, executing those who would attempt to defect or respond in a negative fashion. When the situation arises, they too will find themselves on the battlefield amongst the other soldiers of their holy crusade.

Standard Troops:

Acolytes are the fresh recruits of the Templars, eager to show their worth by engaging in combat roles using blades and cheap guns to rid of ability users.

Canonists are the backbone of Templar military forces, provided with moderate protective gear and commonplace firearms to fulfill their duties. Melee variants tend to fight with one or two light-weight swords.

Zealots are Templar specialists, given missions that lean further towards assassination and in more severe cases, demolition. They are given the most advanced technology, utilizing powerful rifles, explosives, and other instruments of war.

Converted Troops:

Pagans are male pluses that have been captured and indoctrinated by the apostles: Driven mad through experimentation and the injection of hallucinatory chemicals, they have been forced to give up their sanity as reprise for their sins.

Witches are female pluses that have been captured and indoctrinated by the apostles: To amend for their perversion, they have been divested of their sight, permanently destroyed with a ceremonial knife so that they may never see again. Large bands of cloth are wrapped firmly around their eyes.
