Andreas Palaiologos (1453 - 1502) was a titular Byzantine Emperor, and a secret member of the Templar Order.

Andreas and his family moved to Rome, Italy during his childhood. Andreas and his brother Manuel soon became encountered with the Templar Order and joined their ranks, hoping to restore the fallen Byzantine Empire. In the process, Andreas became a friend of the Grand Master of the Templar Order, Rodrigo Borgia, and an acquintance of Cem, the brother of the Ottoman Sultan Bayezid II who was under house arrest in Italy.

While at first supporting the Palaiologi in their attempt to retake Constantinople from the Ottoman Empire, Rodrigo Borgia's interest in doing so had severly weakened by the 1490s. Eventually, Andreas died in poverty in Rome in 1502.
