%%* KnightTemplar

to:

%%* KnightTemplar* KnightTemplar: Out of all the recruits at the Fellowship of the Sun, he's one of the few who's drunken the kool-aid and honestly believes in the cause of exterminating vampires. On top of that, he continued his crusade even after Godric showed mercy, put an end to Steve's plans, and told everyone to go home to prevent further bloodshed. This ends up resulting in Luke's death by suicide bombing.

Added DiffLines:

* OnlySaneMan: ZigZagged. While she occasionally demonstrate ArbitrarySkepticism, it's usually justified in certain circumstances. One example is in season 1 when she doesn't believe Tara's claim about seeing a naked woman and a pig in the middle of the road while driving because Tara had just crashed her car and was heavily drinking at the time. On top of that, she's usually able to see through people's bullshit and has no issue calling them out for their behavior: Like her scathing response when Bud makes a racist joke about Miss Jeanette's death in season 2, or when Jessica reveals that Hoyt joined a hate group in season 5 after breaking up with her, with Kenya sarcastically saying "He's a real prince charming, isn't he?" That being said, she ends up grabbing the IdiotBall hard in the last season when she joins up with the mob that's targeting supernaturals, which ultimately [[spoiler: results in her death.]]

However, when Antonia later possesses Marnie and breaks free, she has Katerina executed because she "betrayed" Marnie to the vampires.

When Jesus comes back for his help 20 years later, he dismisses him his grandson as 'weak'. He also 'weak' because he practices "kitchen magic" instead of the BlackMagic he taught him.

* JerkassHasAPoint: His reasons for [[spoiler: betraying Sookie and the vampires]] are inexcusable, but he does make a valid point that there really isn't any equality in vampire/human relationships unless the vampire is willing to turn their human companion. He's also correct in pointing out that vampires care more about their own kind than they do about humans.
* TheMole: [[spoiler: Turns out to be the traitor the vampires are looking for in season 2.]]
* TheQuisling: [[spoiler: He turned traitor against Isabel and the other vampires, and willingly joined with the Fellowship of the Sun. However, they only saw him as a means to an end, and had no problem imprisoning him with Sookie once he outlived his usefulness.]]

After he gets his ass handed to him by Jason in a humiliating manner, he later takes his anger out on a vulnerable Sookie by trying to rape her, and only is prevented from doing so by Godric. He shamelessly pleads with Godric to spare him, but it doesn't work.

Added DiffLines:

* HateSink: Probably one of the most despicable characters on the show. She's a bigoted shrew who has a petty grudge against shifters because her ex-husband left her for one, and she's organized a Hate Group responsible for going out and targeting innocent people like Sam and Luna. She also plans to use this Hate Group to start a war with supernaturals (vampires, shifters, etc) where humans will win and she can invoke laws that will make it legal for humans to continue murdering supes. She's also a slimy coward who will run away in fear the moment things go wrong.
