Then again, there's not much exploration into the specific effects of using yourself as the focus of the summon; the Heaven's Ward and the Archbishop are likely affected in some way by becoming the Knights of the Round, but there hasn't been much history given as to what their personalities were like before the Archbishop's plans.
