Fiama Nera Cultists
From Tomb Raider Wiki
The cultists of the Fiama Nera hold the highest position in the organisation apart from Marco Bartoli and his various trusted friends, such as Colt. They study the history of the Dagger of Xian and are instrumental in allowing the cult to bypass traps and enemies that otherwise bar Lara's way.
They also act as Bartoli's personal bodyguards, being schooled in martial arts techniques and knife-throwing. They wear black and red ceremonial robes and black masks - all of them have beards.
When facing them, it is wise to stand in an open space as to avoid their throwing knives by jumping back and forth while shooting.
They appear in the levels the Floating Islands and the Dragon's Lair near the end of Tomb Raider II.
