Isaac Comnenus (1155 - c. 1191) was the ruler of Cyprus from 1184 to 1191 and also a minor member of the Byzantine imperial family. Comnenus was also secretly a member of the Knights Templar, tasked with safeguarding the hidden Templar Archive in Limassol.
During the Third Crusade, Comnenus began a war with King Richard I, leader of the Crusader army, though Cyprus was swiftly conquered. With Cyprus in his claim, King Richard sold it to the Knights Templar under the rule of Grand Master Armand Bouchart. Bouchart, dissatisfied with Comnenus, imprisoned and punished him, before ultimately ending his life.
