Khanstahnzo Phandys

Khanstahnzo Phandys was a citizen of the Temple Lands and an officer of the Temple Guard.

He was the officer who had thwarted the Wylsynn brothers' escape from the Inquisition, and personally killed Hauwerd Wylsynn when he resisted arrest. Afterwards, he was promoted to Major and became the commanding officer of Rhobair Duchairn's personal security detachment. 

It was later revealed that the arrest was entirely choreographed: Phandys served Hauwerd Wylsynn and had betrayed him on his orders, Wylsynn knowing he was already going to be arrested. Phandys' denunciation was therefore in order to ensure he appeared loyal, allowing him to act against the Inquisition at a later date. Phandys killed Wylsynn during the arrest to prevent him being tortured and brutally executed.

Appearing to be absolutely loyal to Clyntahn, Phandys became Duchairn's watchdog, which allowed him to become close to the vicar and to help plan his coup. During the coup, Phandys led forces to seize the Treasury, semaphore office and dock master's office on Duchairn's behalf.

After the coup, Phandys served Grand Vicars Rhobair II and Tymythy Rhobair as commander of the Temple Guard, holding the rank of Bishop Militant. He was Rhobair's most trusted and most loyal confidant until the latter's death.
