Sullivan Knoth

Sullivan Knoth's History

While Knoth's presence and influence at Temple Gate is the driving force behind the story, he is rarely seen. His involvement in the script is limited to his passionate gospel that can be heard throughout Temple Gate via the intercoms, and his crazed followers who reference that gospel. We hear his voice when he tortures Lynn Langermann, the reporter he kidnapped and believes to be pregnant with the antichrist. Later in the game, Lynn's husband, Blake enters the church and hides in one of the confession booths, witnessing a couple being tortured by Knoth and his followers for information about Lynn, who recently escaped. After discovering that she is in the mines, in the company of the Heretics, an opposing sect who wish for the birth of the antichrist, Knoth orders the couple to be quickly executed. In the comics we learn that Pauline Glick and the Murkoff men will discover her body during the investigation.
