In my recent discussions over this page on Edelgard, it seems the definitions for Dark Messiah need to be defined better. Like clearly having a messiah like cult following, and having a messiah like bent around them. Kane and Anakin fit the criteria better and certain other tropers have noted the may have.

Like if this trope applies to well intentioned villains who see themselves as the only one capable of fixing the world without a messiah like status or fanatical followers who revere them as a god then Knight Templar and Dark Messiah become interchangeable.

Kane of the Brotherhood is a good example of a Dark Messiah, Dr. Breen is a mere sellout who is just a pawn of the Combine and there are no church of Breen or fanatical followers to him. In the same example of Fire Emblem, Walhart is a good example of a Rudolf who is a Dark Messiah given how many of his troops revere him as a god amongst men, particularly that lady who was the boss of the fort chapter.
